ThE DAIRY INDUSTRY AS 1T
APPEARS TO US.

i s
With the advent OF seemingly
new life and readjustment Of all con-
ditions in this country, there looms
before US the great industry that has
proven itself the great lifeboat which
has towed into the port of prosperity
many communities that has been
despaired of.
One only needs to read the expe-
riences that are placed before us to
consider by the now great dairy pro-
ducing states. Failure, hardships
and bankruptcy faced the farmers
and there seemed no remedy for the
uncurable disease until some one
made a break into diversified farm
ing, starting the ball a-rolling to-
wards the path of prosperity aud
turned the tide of Indulgence into
wealth and comfort.
Everybody foresaw the chance to
recover from the collapse and now
if you happen to visit those coun-
tries that once were like our, only
not so rich in actual advantages, you
will see the great wealth and indie
pendence that reigns all over those
districts.
| 1t is hard to find country more
adapted to tn dairy industry than
our own Powder River county.
The large supply Of water and
nutritive grasses that has made it an
ideal ranching spot and has brought
large returns to the cattle growers
| in the past. will bring quicker AMI
better remuneration to the rancher
and homesteader who has by estab-
fishing his home. cut down the
ranging facilities.
| For long time the sign has APP
peared in large letters and the big
fellow read it perhaps with indis-
nation and contem i,t
To him it was :. Toss to see the
command of Father Time reading,
Quality not quantity" was a severe
blow and it meant the disappearance
of the scrub.
| But now he sees and grasps the
occasion with enthusiastic vim ami
is ready to go to it in the only pros
porous way.
| The organization of the dairy in
dustry is problem that requires !.
| lot of energy and cooperation ami
| it is quite laborious undertaking
TO make il success
At tine present moment there
seems to exist very warm feeling
towards it. Everybody is going into
the dairy business.
Sure. 81 cents a pound for hut-
ter fat means big revenue and if
statistics prove accurate out here.
1t behooves everyone of us to start
in as quickly as possible.
But. there is again, this lack of
confidence in oneself that predomi-
mates. We are willing to go to il,
if the other fellow starts. 1t seems
that lot Of us are afraid TO make
the first move. Why? Well. it's j
general feeling. habit, or some
thing and it seems to cling to us in
all enterprises. 1t has been our ex-
perience to watch the different
phases and words that have been es.
tablished in our county and have al
ways noted that only a few Shout
dered the undertakings and paved
the ways TO success for the rest OF
the population.
Why should such a thing exist Wa
are unable to explain; but it does. |
and will until everybody falls into
line and takes an active and per-
sonal interest in the welfare of the |
community in general. Don't let the
other fellow do the thinking for
you; use your own brains and lend |
EN- out little in cooperation.
Put your shoulder to the wheel: /.
You have goal to reach: you are Il
part OF the machinery that consti |
tutes the power and prosperity o:
the country YOU live In. Get busy.
With the different arrangement
already put into motion by the few |
that foresee the horizon of prosperity |
use your Influence. time and energy t
in the 'perfectioning Of these mo-
tors.
DO not wait 10 see ii the PROPOSE
ton is going to ne success. You
are making it failure yourself By
Cooperation is needed and
If you stand back you are the one
cause OF the failure to put over what
will materialize in the making aui
building up of your community.
We note with pleasure that already
