GREAT INCREASE N
DAIRY INTERESTS
In 1908 States Outturn OF Cream
cry Butter was $4,000 Pounds;
Last Year 1850, 900 Pounds.

While Virginia has not yet come
into it's own in dairying. the pub
lie generally will be surprised to learn
the splendid growth SHOWN IN all the
departments of the dairying business.
due in no small degree to the earnest
efforts and activities of the dairy and
food division of the department of
agriculture of Virginia.
Indicative OF the splendid Develop
ment in progress 1t might be remark
ed that in 1908 the total output OF
creamery butter in this great COM
monwealth was just $4,000 pounds,
which might have spread couple
of pieces of bread for each one of
the states inhabitants In that good
year Last year, however, the total
output was 100000 pounds. which
gives our people approximately =
pound per capita per annum of vir-
ginia creamery butter. This, of course,
is but fraction of what the OUT
put should be but 1t is avery en-
couraging increase.

will be several times that of Last
