port Saturday

About fifty farmers and busi-
ness men met at the court
house here Saturday morning
and discussed with cheese
experts the possibility of secur-
ing cheese factory for Stone

from $500 to 5000 gallons of
milk per day and it is believed
that within period Of two or
three years the supply would
grow to 10000 gallons per day.

amount of milk to be had at
present, J. B. Dorsett, W. R.
Hatten and T. J. Walton were
appointed to make a survey OF
