COST OF BUILDING CREAMERY
One Must First Figure on Expense ano
Then on Equipment-Pays
to Build Well.

nv a. A. GILBERT, Colorado Agricul-
tural College)
Creamery builders must figure the
cost, first. of the building. second OF
the equipment. A suitable and con-
yenient building will contain q man
work room, store room, refrigerator,
engine and boiler room, coal room and
an Office. Such medium sized cream
ery would measure 28x48 feet. In
some sections labor and material are
much cheaper than in others and the
cost varies accordingly. However, we
can place the limit of cost OF such a
construction between one thousand
and fifteen hundred dollars.
Where only gathered cream Is re-
ceived the equipment required Is less
than where whole milk is received. In
the first instance, of the gathered
cream plant, the following would be
necessary: Is H. P. boiler; 10 H. +.
engine; a well and pump; weigh can
and scales; Babcock testing equip
ment complete; combiner churn. capa'
city 600 lbs. butter; buttermilk vat;
cream ripener; starter can; wash sink.
Besides this there will be shafting,
pulleys, piping, betting. etc. By max.
ing two churnings a day In the rush
season, 1000 pounds of butter could be
manufactured per day in a plant OF
this size. The cost of equipment would
approximately be $1,000.
The total cost of creamery with
out artificial refrigeration will vary
from $4,000 to $4,000. In the long run
it pays to build well and to use first
class equipment in creamery, and
this is the basis of the foregoing fig
ures. In many cases on record cream
cries started by promoters of repre-.
sentatives Of construction companies
have cost exhorbitant prices and out
of all proportion to the business they
are able to do.

When Soils Cease to Produce.


The trouble with soils when they
cease to produce as they did when
new is not that the elements Of plant
food are actually exhausted from the
soil, but the necessary forces for the
liberation are exhausted. One of
these forces is bacteria. It is esti-
mated that in the common soil there
are 150,000,000 bacteria to the ounce.
These bacteria must have for their
food, humus, then they will liberate
food for the growth of plants. To be
q good farmer one needs to grow le-
gumes and other cover crop plants
to turn under for humus, and to en-
courage these beneficial bacteria to
perform their functions in the soil.
