albion correspondence: Among the
enterprising young farmers in this vi
cinity is Curtis Hussey. He has made
a speciality of the dairy business. and
success Of it as we'll. During last year
he made and sold over 5000 pounds Of
butter. at a uniform price Of 25 cents
per pound. The product goes in all di-
rections. from Pennsylvania to Cali
fornia, the customers paying the
freight. The Sugar Grove dairy farm
has become noted for its Jersey cattle
and its fine butter SO that the demand
exceeds the producing capacity. At
present twenty cows are being MIXED.
and their care takes the whole of one
mans time. The fodder is cut and
mixed with shorts, water warmed. cows
hard coal burner, and the churning
done by horse power. The books of the
firm are carefully kept. so that at the
end of the year the actual result OF the
seasons business Is known. The farm
contains 240 acres of very productive
land, we'll watered, and fenced into
various sized lots and pastures. a deep
well near the barn furnishes a never
failing supply Of water which is pumped
up by a wind mill and carried by pipes
into the different cattle lots. Advance
ment is the motto of this farm. and
anything that will add to the quality
and quantity of the butter product is
given careful attention"
