1t is already much too small for the
gradually increasing business. 1t
would cost $4,000 to replace the build
ing.
The Farmers Cooperative Creamery
company has a capital of $4,000. The
capitalization, however, will doubtless
be increased to $4,000 at another date
to make provisions for additional bust
ness. Notwithstanding the necessary
expenses not incident to the rapidly in
creasing business, especially the con-
struction of the modern plant, the
creamery company has been able to
keep out of debt, and in addition, pay
prices averaging from 3 to 9 cents
above quotations OF all concerns during
it's period of operation. Also at the
close of 1918 the company declared a
substantial dividend to all patrons of
the creamery, whether stockholders or
not.
! The local creamery is regarded
throughout the entire west as one of
the best known examples of the sue
cessful farmers marketing agencies
| The success of the creamery is un-
doubtedly due to the business ability
and general standing of the farmers
who have composed it's board of di-
rectors, and the confidence of the
farmers in general in their leadership
The creamery company, in addition
! to functioning as highly efficient
marketing agency, pursues broad
policy in regard to rural development
| The officers believe that diversified
| farming is the basis of permanent
prosperity in an agricultural section
| in that the greater the number OF
sources of income on the farm, tho

Payette, Jan. 3.--The wave Of pros

business in the valley last sea son. APP
proXimately $500 cars of fruit have al

besides some 500 cars of apples at pres
ent in cold and common storage
throughout the valley. The handling
of last seasons business hovers around
the 100000 mark for the Payette val
ley alone. The expense of preparing
a car of fruit for the market has beer
estimated at 5000, making the payroll
for the season 100000, this covering
