The first cooperative creamery in
America was built in Iowa. But
ter made at that creamery took first
prize in the international competition
of the Philadelphia Centennial EX-
position in 1876.
Iowa ranks third in quantity of
dairy production, but first in quality,

A half intere5 in one Iowa Jer-
sey bull, Financial Sensation, was
sold for $4,000. That bull was
banqueted at the Waldorf-Astoria
Hotel in New York.
Practically every outstanding Jer-
sey or Holstein cow in America has
blood from the herds of two Iowa
pioneer breeders.
These things and many other in
teresting stories about Iowa dairy
development are told in an article oy

MERITOL SELLS
LARGE ORDERS
Business is Taxing the Capacity
of the Factory.
TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS
IN A SINGLE DAY
Eastern and Western Branch Houses
Rapidly Growing in Amount
of Sales and Distribution.

Decorah's leading industrial insti-
tution-the Meritol factory of the
American Drug and Press Associa-
tion, is a mighty busy place these
days, and is doing much greater
business than at any time in its his
tory. If the rapidly increasing
trade of this concern in all parts
of the country is any criterion OF
business conditions, indications point
to very rapid restoration of the
good old times we all want so much.
From all parts of the country orders
are coming in daily, the old ac-
counts showing material increase in
quantity, and many new stores are
being added to the list.
A single day last week brought
over S2O,O00.00 in orders from the
state of California alone. This ship
ment comprises two car loads. A
recent order from New York amount
ed to more than $12,000.00. The
average days business amounts to
approximately 100000, which indi-
Gates a most prosperous business ano
the building up of an immense insti'
tuition here that will spread the
name of Decorah and Meritol fal
and wide.
The new factory is now splendidly
equipped with every modern faclhtS
for the rapid manufacture, bottilng
labelling, boxing and shipping OF the
upwards of 1000 Meritol prepafa
tions which are being manufactures
here. A large force of employees II
