HOW THE MONEY WAS SPENT

Elsewhere in this issue appears the
report Of the city treasurer covering
the period from April /. 1918 to May
l, 1915. This report shows that the
total receipts from the water system
was $17, 249.55, while the expenditures
amounted to s16, 422. So, leaving a
balance Of $s26.66 on hand May LIST
this year.
Thinking that some of the citizens
OF Montpelier will wonder why the
expenditures should have reached
the large sum Of SIC, 422.55, we will
state that during the past two years
two extraordinary items had to be
met. These were the payment of the
warrants issued In ISO9-1O which.
with interest, amounted to $4,000.
The cleaning of the reservoir and the
construction of the hume at the head
works cost $4,000, making total Of
20, 300. TO this amount may be add
ed the interest on the bonds for the
two years which was 1880, making
q total Of $11.55O. Deducting this
amount from the $l6,429, leaves s4,-
s72, which may be termed the actual
operating expenses of the water sys-
tenn for the past two years.
The present administration started
out with the water system in good
shape and with 1926 in the water
works fund.

Creamery Received 1920
Pounds Of Milk in One Day

The highest mark in the amount of
milk ever received by the Burton
Creamery Co., in Alton was reached
on Monday of this week, when teams
brought to that company 80, 29O pounds
of milk. When it is considered that
this is more than fifteen TONS received
in one day, and that there are three
such creameries in the valley, one can
readily see why Business is good in
Star Valley The price paid for milk
now is about cent per pound. From
the milk received Monday the Creamery
in Alton made 1925 pounds of cheese.
and on the day following churned bet
ter than 600 pounds of butter.
One farm, the W. W. Burton & Sons
Co., sell daily 100 pounds of milk, and
there are various individuals who sell
upwards Of 1000 pounds of milk daily.
7, II Wildes. who has charge of the
receiving and testing Of the milk at the

noticed that where milking machines
are used test is generally better, than
when the old method was used. He
has noticed this, in he says, in two
instances where mixers were recently
