BUTTER AT As CENTS A POUND1
WHY?

In a state like Florida, where the
very finest kind of feed for cattle
can be raised all the year round
practically, and where there is no
need to provide expensive barns and
sheds for shelter, 1t reads like a fai-
ry tale, that we should have to pay
45 cents a polud for butter, and even
at that have to import it from Illi-
nois ana other distant points. Local
ly there are more dairy cattle being
raised and cared for than in a great
many other sections Of the state, but
the demand for cream is greater than
the supply, and consequently there is
none for conversion into butter. In
very many Instances even farmers
themselves are buying creamery but
ter or going without, both Of which is
very regrettable. why is it that farm
ers seem So unwilling to raise dairy
stock? one very likely answer was
made the other day to the editor by
q l''dl man W n.y. ne NdIl' l EHtNN
it's because the farmers like to run
off to the beach or to the north and
have a good time all summer. and
