LITTLE BUTTER-MAKING
Siberian Farmers Refuse to Oppose Gov
eminent Monopoly.

Vladivostok, March l9.-Butter pro-
duction in Siberia has nearly stopped
according to local newspapers, owing to
a government monopoly which fixed
price lower than cost Most of the west
Siberian butter producers turned to
cheese making in consequence. Peasants
and cattle owners are finding it UNI
profitable to keep their herds and are
selling them.
The monopoly on butter introduced by
the kerensky government and perpetual
ed by the bolsheviki and other govern
ments since, has resulted in complete de
moralization of cattle breeding. After
the monopoly became effective butter
accumulated in the hands of the author
tiles until they were at a loss to know
how to dispose of it. Great quantities
were used as machine lubricant,
To-day, as a result OF decreased pro
duction, the price has increased in cen
trail Siberia to 81 rubes a pound
