A WORD TO THE WISE

There are three creameries in
the county, located at South Fork
Dee'h, and Lamoilie. The three
don't make enough butter to supply
the County. The local mel chants
sell large quantities of batter made
in Utah and California. The Gus
tones call for these brands some
times. 1t seems to us that since
the butter manufactured by these
three local creamerics is as gr cd
as the imported article that both
customers should call for, and
dealers endeavor to push the sale
Of Elko Co butter. By doing SO
YOU help not only the creameries
but also the ranchers of Elko CO
Be loyal to home products, and give
the Elko creameries a square deal.
