The New Product ut SkOwhegan Jer-
sey Creamery

The Skowhegan Jersey Creamery
furnishes an outlet for 100000 worth
of dairy products annually. All of
this comes from Somerset County
farms. They are now running an ice
cream department which will undoubt-
eddy increase their demand for Som
erset County dairy products. They
are already making this cream in van
lila, strawberry, chocolate, lemon,
grapenut maple, cherry, and pine
apple Other flavors can be furnished
upon reasonable notice.
1t is probable that 1000 gallons of
ice cream are consumed by Somer-
set County people weekly. III the pro-
prietors of soda fountains, restaur-
ants and other dealers in ice cream
could make arrangements for their
supply with the Skowhegan Jersey
Creamery they would have the sat
isfaction of knowing that they were
contributing thereby to the prosperity
of the dairy business in Somerset
County. Dealers and consumers alike
might well bear this in mind and it
would be a satisfaction il all of the
ice cream used in this section could,
through the Skowhegan Jersey Cream
cry, be made only from cream pro-
duced on Somerset County farms.

William Lane of East Lexington
took two veal calves to Skowhegan
market last week for which he re-

The heavy frost of last week did
not seem to do any extensive damage.
Apple and all fruit trees seem to be
blossoming full.
