JEFFERSON COUNTY FARM NOTES
The New Creamery.

iHe NeW creamery.
The new creamery at Charles Town
began operation February I'd. Though
this is grounding day." we do not
believe it will 90 back If il sees its
shadow We believe this because il
is operated by an experienced fore
man, owned by the Hurwitz Com
pany, who have been dealing in dairy
products for years in Baltimore, and
because new and modern equipment
has been installed. Another reason
for this creamery becoming part of
the business of the county is because
We are well situated for dairy develop
ment.
The Roads Meeting.
Saturday, January 3lst good
meeting of the Farm Bureau was held

opportunity TO express himself. l. b.
Huyett opened the discussion with a
statement of the proposition and what
1t might mean to the county il the
movement materializcd i'm the way of
debt. II. M Turner, Shcpherdstown
pointed out the wisdom in the
provision in the State constitution not
allowing for such an issue of bonds.
Ohio was cited as having contracted
debts under which the State was la,
boring by not having this provision,
He moved that the Farm Bureau op-
pose a change in the constitution
making this bond issue possible. The
question was discussed. w. +. Alex
amer pointed out that the present auto
fund would not nearly cover this debt.
Many felt that there is too much un-
certainty TO warrant an expected in
} crease in automobiles. Mr.. Turner
withdrew his motion, which would
have easily passed, in order that any
action that the Farm Bureau might
take be not too hasty. The possibility
is that some facto overlooked might
alter the case. Ii was agreed to set
aside some day near March 18th as
road day, and invite exponents and op-
ponents TO the issue to be present TO
another open meeting of the Farm
Bureau.

New Flour Mill Protested.

There is talk Of establishing a -four
mill of large capacity at Shenandoah
Junction, which is regarded as a most
desirable point for such an industry
on two trunk line railroads running
north and south and east and west and
right in the heart OF a great wheat
growing community. The plan is to
form a stock company, capitalized at
100000, with 600 shores at SlOO each.
1t is said that a considerable amount
OF stock has already been placed
enough to insure the starting of the
enterprise. Moneyed men from Win
chester. and from Jefferson county are
back of the project.
A big flour and corn mill is being
worked up for Riverton Junction by
the Shenandoah Valley Milling Com
pany, involving an expenditure OF
about 100000. A 1900 horse power
hydro-electric plant is to be construct
ed and 800 horse machinery is to be
installed. The plant is to be a large
and up-to-date establishment, accord
ing TO the plans.
