After lunch and the long rest we still

heard the strangest sound that ever
those wilds gave forth. 1t was like

Cooperative Creameries Show
Tremendous Increase in
Butter Production.

The Dairy Commissioner, at first an
nual convention of Saskatchewan
Dairymen's association, reviewed pro-
gress of 1915 which shows great in
crease in the butter production Of the
cooperative creameries amounting to
100000 lbs. HG also said the i'm
provement in quality is shown by the
preference accorded Saskatchewan
butter in outside markets. Shipments
out of the province for the year to-
tailed SO carloads.
According to bulletin just issued by
the Manitoba department of agricul-
ture, the dairy industry had a very
successful year In 1915. There was an
increase of over 10000 lbs. Of cream
cry butter produced, as against the
previous year, about 100000 lbs. In
crease in dairy butter and over 25.0OO
increase of the total value Of milk and
milk products was over S427,O00. The
production of dairy butter for Mani
toba during the year was A. ,15O, ,444 lbs.
and 1t brought an average price Of 23c
per lb.; of creamery butter $685., ,667
lbs. were produced which commanded
29c per lb. on the average; cheese pro-
duction was 728,725 lbs. which sold at
an average price of 15c-the total
value of these three products is given
as S2,76O,69S, In addition to which the
milk produced Is valued at $925,6o9
and the cream at s15s.s27, the average
price of the milk being reckoned at
2.1c per lb. and Of sweet cream at 32c
per lb. butter-fat. In connection with
the dairy industry it is interesting to
note that almost the most important
fodder crop now is corn, of which the
1915 production amounted to 190,132
tons. The biggest cultivated fodder
crop is timothy which for last season
produced 193,357 tons and the next
most popular crop was bronze grass
with 45,s15 tons: of alfalfa and clover
there were produced some $4,000 tons.
The number of cattle in the province
is given as e31. .OO5. which is an in
crease of 10000 over the previous
year.
The fact that the Red Deer, Alberta,
cheese factory is handling four times
as much milk this season as last win
ter shows the growing Improvement in
the dairy industry. On Feb. IA, 1t was
announced the factory had just
shipped two tons of cheese for Calgary
market.
Cardston, Alberta, creamery In 1915
paid its patrons rate of 27isc per
lb. for butter fat and had n profit re-
naming over all expenses of S5,5S4.
The creamery during season distrib-
uted among farmers SCI, III and manu-
factured 256,O0O lbs. butter and 1900
lbs. cheese. Average price realized for
butter was 2SH cents.
The development of the dairy indus
try of Northern Alberta is well indi-
Gated by the growth of prominent
dairy business here. which In 1915 pro-
duced 2.525 900 lbs. butter. an increase
Of 100000 lbs. over the previous year.
This product has found market In all
parts Of Canada and this year will en-
ter the export trade. Advertisement.
