The matter of securing a creamery
for Boomers Ferry was well dis
cussed at this meeting and upon
invitation, Prof. P. NJ. Collins, prin-
cipal of the Boomers Ferry schools,
gave some of his experiences in
Oregon. He advised that those in
terested in securing a creamery here
make it point to find out definite
ly, not how many cows would be
MIXED in the district, but how much
butter fat the cows of the district
would produce; whether or not the
products of the creamery would be
assured of a ready sale. He also
advised that the committee make
a careful selection of a manager
and then leave the buying of ma
chinery, the placing and erection
of the same in his hands. He gave
several instances of where dairying
communities had been stung through
the successful efforts of creamery
promoters who had unloaded ma
chinery and equipment at fabulous
prices.
Prof. Collins urged that the people
of this community avail themselves
Of the services of Prof. Ellington
of the state agricultural college al
Moscow, in arriving at a decision
in the creamery matter and an effort

ton come here to attend the meet
ing of the farmers which is to be

Would Hire Another Teacher

AT the meeting of the school board
held Monday night it was decided to
hire teacher for the eighth grade,
if one could be secured, for the re-
mainder of the year. This course
was deemed necessary on account
of the crowded condition of the high
school and the fact that the present
corps of teachers is greatly over
worked. 1t was also thought that
the pupils of the eighth grade would
be better off if placed under the su-
pervision of a single teacher.
