]. S. MOORE,
Professor of Dairy Husbandry.

There are a few thlngs III the
foregoing letter that we would cau
particular attention to. Note flrst
that just twenty-one patrons had
nerve enough to JON in the begin
ming. In eight years that original
number had been doubled many
times until in 1920 there We're 199.
The net receipts to the patrons
grew from s5,193.30 in 1912, to
S17O,524.76 in 1920; or from S242.-
20 per man the first year to S856-96
per man in 1920. This latter fig
ure included the returns to many
persons with from three to six
cows. one a widow with house
full of little girls.
In the beginning it should be
noted that cream was shipped In
from points eighty or more miles
away from the creamery. AT the
present the majority Of it is pre
duced within a radius Of twelve
miles.
Note what Mr.. Moore nasto say
about conditions on the farms in
his territory now as compared to
those when the creamery was
young. In the meantime more has
been done than he mentions in his
letter. Rock roads have been ex-
tended TO almost every point in
the county, and good home after
good home has been built along
! these highways, making for better
community life and a more prosper
Gus and dependable agriculture.
There are many other conlpli-
mentary things that might be SAID
about the creamery and the coun-
try round about it, but We believe
! what has already been said IS SUI
licient TO indicate what a creamery
under proper management may
mean. 1t will be noted that MI.
Moore calls attention TO the fact
that the state has twenty-five
creameries in operation at the pres
ent time and that they are all in a
prosperous condition. The cream
ery industry is the one that stands
oat most prominently in that state

dustry that has not only held its
own but made continuous progress.
Maybe this fact is partial answer
TO questions in other sections
where the boil weevil is now a very
troublesome factor. OF course, there
is a limit TO the dairy industry, but
we are q long way from that limit
Yet. Millions OF pounds Of butter

Climbing roses that are apt to be

early spring they can be tied up again

the benefit of all the flowers.

of much benefit to young grass, since
1t assists it in making sufficient growth
