Cheese Factory Is
Stepping on the Gas
Over Ton of Cheese Leaves Our
Town Every Week; Top Prices
Are Paid Farmers for Milk

The Oakley cheese factory has
been stepping on the gas" since
Mr.. DeLaMare organized the drive
to increase output. A weekly ship
mentof twenty-five hundred pounds
of cheese was sent to Rupert last
Monday and the previous Monday.
Fifty-eight thousand pounds of milk
were poured into the vat the last
half of August as compared with
twenty-eight thousand the last half
of July. The farmers received over
thirteen hundred dollars for milk
during the last helf of August, as
against over six hundred dollars for
the last half of July.
The BUY Another Cow move
ment continues in force. Bishop
John Adams bought five head of
Holstein cows from A. j. Aylor of
Kenyon, the past week. Seven other
dairy cows have been purchased this
week by patrons of the local cheese
factory. It's somewhat of an inspi-
ration to see fine livestock and Bish-
op Adams invites the people to visit
his ranch and take a look at the
new members of his dairy herd.
The cheese factory is paying the
farmers good prices for the milk.
Forty-seven cents pound for the
butterfat was the rate the last pay
day. The price may be raised even
higher.
The local financial value of the
cheese factory is we'll indicated by
the sum paid the farmers the last
half of August. At the same rate,
the sum paid out duringa year would
be over thirty-two thousand dollars.
But this sum represents only forty
one thousand pounds of milk day,
less than the capaci-
ty of one vat. Fill the vat every day
to its capacity of fifty-six thousand
pounds, and you will bring the far
mers more than fifty thousand dol.
lars annually And if the milk sup
ply is increased to the extent of fill
ing TWO vats daily, the gain to the
community will be over hundred !
thousand dollars annually
The Cheese factory observes two
monthly pay days. On the fifth, pay
nent is made for milk received dur
ng the laft half of the previous
on the twentieth, checks are
given for milk received from the
irst to fifteenth of the same month.
Only five days delivery is unpaid
When check is received.
Oakley cheese looks good, smells
rood, tastes good and is good See
ng, smelling and tasting is believ-
ng and anyone in doubt as to the
Iuality of our cheese is invited to 20
o the factory and make the test for
himself.

OAKLEY BACHELORS CLUB
HOLDS A NOISY MEETING

A special meeting of the Oakley
week on account of the departure of
former member Charlie Payton from
single life to the state of matrimony.
Jedediah Dusenberry, president of
the organization, opened the session
with the following address:
Charlie has went and gone and
done it. After years of faithful SER
vice to our club, he has deserted to
the enemy. We might as well face
the situation squarely. We have
lost him and lost him forever.
True, we will pass him on the street,
we will see him day by day. But be
will never be the same-to us. He
can never be a member again. Moth
ing can ever obliterate the fact that
he deserted the Oakley Valley Bach
elors' club and the cause for which
they standl
Fellow bachelors, something has
got to be did In the past we have
been too lenient to our erring breth-
ren. We haven't shown enough
fiImness to those who have deserted
our cause. And what is the result?
Our members have been getting
married at most alarming ratsi
II this thing goes on, we will soon
derhave no club at all. The chair
will now hear a motion for appoint
ing a committee to tell us what to
do about it,
The rest of the meeting was rath-
er noisy. Jedediah Dusenberry got
into dispute with Azariah Huckle-
berry who favored Justice tempered
with mercy. Huckleberry, accord
ing to reports that reached this Of
fee. advised justice tempered with
mercy.
Tears of sorrow,'' said he, mot
words of scorn, befit the passing
from our club of one who has been
for so many yearsl'
There wasn't dry eye in the
house. Tears were streaming down
tutchS anu even TIE
Dusenberry was observ
sd to give his eyes occasional dab
with his red handkerchief. Some of
he more emotional members sobbed
lnrestrainedly as they recalled the
good old days when they all had
been bachelors together and then
'ecalled that Charlie had left their
hub forever. At any rate, so the
'umors indicate.
Nevertheless, DusenbeEry accused
1uckleberry of trying to break up
he club by mild policy and, it is,
eported, there were many stormy
Genes before a compromise policy
vas agreed on. At one time it re-
Iuired three men to hold Dusenber-
y and four to hold Huckleberry.

ort at the next meeting.
