CREANERYCONPANY
TO DECIDE ON THE
LOCATION OF PLANT
Directors of Cooperative
Gre IN e y Recommend
Building Condensaly -
Meeting Saturday.

The location for the new milk con-
densary plant will be decided upon
next Saturday when the stockholders
of the Boise Cooperative Creamery
company meet in special session to
discuss the plans for the $4,000 plant
it Is proposed to erect.
The directors of the company met
Saturday and after a full discussion
1t was decided to recommend to the
stockholders that the condensary be
built. 1t Is known that a major por-
ton of the stockholders favor such
action and it is believed that the vote
for the new and profitable industry
will be unanimous.
1t was reported at the meeting Sat
urday that the Nampa Cooperative
Creamery company and the Caldwell
Co operative Creamery company
wished to consolidate with the Boise
Co operative Creamery company In
the building of a modern condensary
plant.
The Boise company has the money
for putting up the necessary plant and
it would be but the matter Of a short
time before condensed milk could be
turned out at a capacity Of $4,000
pounds daily.

additional to spend for other purposes
for work on the front.
Captain Barnes last night expressed
her appreciation for the magnificent
gift of the Boise people. The fact that
the subscriptions came from more
than 5000 people added to it's value and
proved the trust and confidence placed
in the work of the organization.
The largest subscriptions received
were for S. and So and there were
only few of those. the remainder was
given In subscriptions ranging from
% cents to 81 and shows that a large
majority of people who were in the

GREEK GETS LESSON.

Nick Michaels, a Greek automobile
driver, was in court Saturday to show
cause why his parole, granted in July

making joke out Of the fact that he
was arrested for a serious violation OF
the liquor laws and has made state
ments to the fact that he was still
making money at +he business. He was
severely admonished by Judge Nc
Carthy and informed that the laws OF
this country were not jokes. His case
was continued until Tuesday for fur
