Favors Cheese Factories
Editor of the Clio Messenger,
Dear Sir:

Editor or the CllO messenger,
Dear Sir:
would like the privilege of writing
a few words for publication in The Mes
senger, in reply to an article in last
week g issue, stating what wonderful
price and market the Detroit Creamery
Company has built up for the dairymen
of this section; also stating that the
cheese factories have gone out of the
deal because the creamery company is
the only concern paying a liberal and
big price for milk. Now, let me ask,
what about the war prices, has this
helped them any? Well, l don't think
it has, as l see their quotation for milk
in November was $500 per cwt. and
cream at 36c while other creameries
have been offering 44c and 45c for
cream, and cheese factories will pay
for milk delivered that month 1925 to
So. so per cwt. Now, if we could have
had the advantage of war prices before
the Detroit Creamery Co. came along,
the cheese factories might have paid
the same enormous price that the De-
troit Creamery Co. is paying at this
date, providing the Milk Producers AS
sociation came along and told us to
come over. Well, maybe we are dead
or mesmerized, but we cheese factory
patrons feel like shouting GLORY"
when cheese is paying us from 26c to
2Sc pound. Not any Detroit Cream
cry Co. help for US, and we don t know
of any cheese factories that have sus-
pended yet, with the exception of two
or three that never did make success.
Please explain to US where and how
they have afforded such superior
market having, as they have. the adj
vantage of war prices.
Patron of Cheese Factory.

Milk Producers Meeting

The milk producers of this section
held very interesting meeting at
Grange Hall last Friday afternoon, at
which time various men engaged in the
milk industry in this section told of
facts which clearly indicated the value
and the necessity Of cooperation.
Factory Superintendent Jos. Cobane,
of the Detroit Creamery Company,
was an interested listener while the
meeting was in progress, and at the
conclusion of the discussion was invited
to state the position of his company
with regard to the matters at issue.
Mr.. Cobane's talk dealt in a general
way with the expense of hauling the
milk to the factory, which under pres
ent circumstances. he said, is a very
considerable item, and also of the ex-
pense of handling the milk so as to pro-
duce sanitary product that will stand
the necessary inspection, and further,
customers in such quantities and forms
as is demanded. 1t was statement of
the milk buyers and manufacturers
side of the question and was made with
candor and in a spirit of reason and
fairness, so far as one could judge, and
the speaker engaged in no criticism of
the producers He said that it had not
been the purpose of the Detroit Cream
cry Co., at the outset, to ship any
whole milk from Clio to the Detroit
market, but that when last seasons
drouth came on the resulting scarcity
of milk rendered it necessary to do so
in order to care for the necessities of
the people in the cities. He said that
the barns and apparatus of the milk
producers in this section were not up
to the standard required for city in
spection, and that it did not cost as
much to produce milk for use in con-
densary or cheese factory as it did to
produce it for city delivery. We under
derstand that this latter claim of Mr..
Cobane is conceded and that it is a part
of the purposes of the Milk Producers
Association to encourage the use of
sanitary stables and methods as we'll as
to set price for the milk commensur-
ate with its cost and comprehending
reasonable profit to the farmer.

On Monday last H. D. Gage. A. j,
Brabazon, and r. Acheson, as repre-
sentatives of the local Milk Producers
Association, attended a meeting in De-
troit which had for it's object the estab-
lishment of scale of prices. About
three hundred delegates attended the
meeting and it is said there was consid-
cradle sentiment favoring price of
So. 90 per cwt.. but action was deferred
for two weeks when another meeting
will be held.

Mr.. Charles Woolson,
Clio, Mich.
Friend Woolson: see by The Clio
Messenger that you have been under
the weather and hope this finds you on
the up grade and ready for Michigan
winter. The climate here is fine in the
winter months. as we have no winds to
stir up things. The summers are very
warm with cool nights, fine for sleep
ing; no heat prostrations. We had VIM.
Rose and family here in June on their
way to the coast, but say, Mr.. Rose
was mighty homesick. although Mrs.
Rose liked it here fine, with different
kinds of roses climbing up the houses
and flowers of different kinds in the
gardens. Green corn in the fields was
standing 8 feet high the 18th of June.
Oh yes, we can beat old Michigan on
corn, spuds and alfalfa hay, and are
sure of crop every season-no failure.
Times are good here. This town has
three large garages with complete ma
chine shops annexed. and more autos
here to the mile than any place know
of. A 20 acre rancher here is apt to
have an auto, in fact most of the
ranches are 20 acres, hence you see the
population is quite dense. Now, Friend
Woolson, trust this finds you in better
health. Mrs. Hill and l have the best
of health. Iweigh 40 lbs. more than
did in Mich. Write soon.

The Song of Labor

The Song of Labor
sing the song of the workman,
The Joy of the whose hand
Leaps to fulfill with practised skill
The keen sure brains demand
Who knows the thrill of creation,
Who stands with the Lord one
Sees what wrought from hidden thought
And can say of his work, "Well done!'
Others may seek for rank and wealth,
And search the wide world through
He knows the deep where grand thoughts sleep,
Which Tubal Cain once knew:
Beauty may lie in a woman's eye,
And dwell on her lips sweet
1t lives well in the engines swell,
And the piston's throbbng beat.
The arch which defes the rivers flood
And holds its waves in check,
Is fair as the line where tresses twine
Or the curve of a snowy neck;
And he who can feel such beauty's power
And bid it live and move
Knows deeper bliss than maidens kiss
Can give to the heart of love.
Some must lie soft and feed daintly
Or the soul in them makes moan;
But little he heeds who finds his needs
In the makers JOY alone
Sorrow and pain may come to him.
They surely come to all
But ever he feels strength that stees
His heart to the shafts that fall
He gladly greets the coming years.
They bring him added skill,
He feels ruth for the loss of youth;
His goal is nearer STILL
And only this he asks of fate:
That he may keep his dover
Of strength, and will and labors skill
Unto his lfe's last hour

DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION
 S|OEL|GHTS

One of the most interesting fea. lures of the recent Democratic con vention at St Louis Is the fact that it took lovely woman to force the only roll call demanded on the national platform, as we'll as to inspire the only real excitement that marked the convention.
 Votes for Women" was the issue that stirred up things. The Mexican plank, nailed in at the last minute by the platform builders, did not create a ripple. "Americanism" and "pre. paredness" received polite evations. but it remained for the woman suf- frage plank to start real fraeas.
 Headed by Gov Ferguson of Texas, the antis endeavored to wrench the suffrage plank from the platform. But President Wilson's feelings on the subject, as presented to the conven tion by Senator Walsh of Montana. were not to be ignored. And so after a three-hour battle in which the term political expeGiency" was used with telling effect, the antis were routed by vote of 8SSk to 1811a.
 The vote, however. does not tell the real story of the battle, which was one of the most vigorous and pic turesque ever staged at national Democratic convention. Fifteen wom- en delegates fought from the floor on the side of the pro-suftragists. while hundreds of their sisters waved yell low pennants and cheered them on from the balconies. A thunderstorm that almost drowned out the voices of the delegates as they answered the roll call brought both the suffrage battle and the convention to a most m al adrauatic fipich

BLUFF" DEcElVES NO ONE
Foolish PrstensIons of Means Beyond Command . Stupid Though Most
 Common Fault.

Trying to make people believe that we possess more than we really do Is what keeps most of us in debt.
 It is far better to have less preten- tious home. and even to entertain less lavishly than our neighbor, than to be constantly harassed by collectors whom we are unable to pay.
 It Is a foolish idea of living which prompts us to spend more than we make.
 It may be that you have never been thrown out of employment when you did not have few dollars ahead
 If not and you are making no prep aration to meet such a contingency. the sooner you get some experience along that line the better.
 The earlier in life you learn the les son which it teaches, the more profit able 1t will be to you. and the effect may not be so disastrous as in later years.
 Other men with just as firm hold as you have lost their jobs, and it is fool ish for you to think that you have a life interest in your place. Better be prepared for the changes which are sure to come to most of us, and never mind what other folk think about the way you spend or do not spend. Be sure. anyway. you are not fooling them much, for the foolish spender Is always easy to detect.-Chicago Exam iner
