A permanent, full value market
for your sweet cream is assured by
the establishment of the Blue Valley
Sweet Cream Creamery here.
You can go ahead and plan your
farming, your supply of feed, the
breeding of your cows, additions to
your herd and other improvements
that will make for greater dairy pro-
duction, sure of high market. You
will always have it right here in Sank
Centre. You will always receive full
value for your sweet cream.
AS shown so very strikingly by U.
S. census figures on dairy cattle pop
ulation per square mile, published in
this space in recent issues, Blue Val
ley in the past has always served
farmers in territory where dairy con-
ditions are very unfavorable as COM
pared with dairy conditions here.
That we have served them better than
anybody else, is proven by the fact
that their patronage has made Blue
Valley the largest exclusive manufac-
turers of creamery butter in the
world.
Blue Valley has attained this lead
ing position under conditions which
in Minnesota are considered great
handicaps. That being the case, is
it not reasonable to expect that the

times as many dairy cattle per square

cry community in the State of Min
nesota from the smallest hamlet to
the greatest city. The Legion has
heard it and earnestly expressed it's
intention to accept it. Legonaires,
are you ready to aid in translating
the acceptance of this challenge into
terms of service?
1t is hard to conceive OF field that
offers greater opportunity to express
that sense of individual obligation to
the Community, the State and the
Nation which the Legion seeks to in
culcate, than the field of Boys Work ;
and surely no other effort gives
promise of so certain and tremendous
results for good.
These boys, like our disabled COM
rades, need our assistance now. To
them justice delayed would certainly
be justice denied. We do not seek
to limit interest to scouting, but we
keenly desire that every Legionaire
investigate scouting sufficiently to
see that it is built on plan that
satisfies the natural craving of the
boy for organized comradeship, for
fraternity for adventure, for the
gang, for activity, for loyalty. (Boy

The week of April 10Th to May
5th will be nationally observed as
Boys Week. 1t is desired that the
thoughts and hearts of the nation be
turned to The Boy of Today, that we
may understand the conditions and
dangers that surround him, his pos

truly sympathetic and intelligent as
sistance.
Every Legionaire is urged to join
in the observance of this week and to
see that his Post does is best for the

We want the American Legion to
accept this challenge and prove it's
title to leadership, not only by words
Of friendship, but also by acts of SER

Highest Price for Superlative
Quality

Blue Valley butter and service sat-
isfy the average consumer. He is
the great majority. He is the big de-
mand.
His income is limited, and there is
6: limit to the price he will pay for
butter. He wants good butter, butter
that will stay good in his ice box and
butter that is the same one purchase
after another. That's why millions
use Blue Valley butter.
But in every city there is a small
Ter class of consumers who want the
very best Of everything and who can
afford and are willing to pay a high
price just so they are sure of getting
it. They will pay high price for a
superlative' quality of butter, if they
only can be sure of getting it and
getting it again and again.
The Blue Valley Sweet Cream
Creamery will supply that particular
demand. Backed by Blue Valley ex-
perience and efficiency as it will be,
you can be sure that your sweet
cream will be made into a superla-
tive quality of butter.
And what is more, it will be sold
in the same efficient, orderly manner
by the same superior Blue Valley dis
tributing system as all Blue Valley
butter, and at no additional expense.

Legion Leadership Challenged

The fundamental peace-time pur-
pose of the American Legion is The
Promotion of Good Citizenship.
To insure a high standard of &C
ton we have adopted the ideals of
our American system of government
and have dedicated ourselves to the
task of expressing the terms of SER
vice to our fellowmen, the loyalty
we profess to God and Country.
We sincerely claim place of lead
ership in the field of good citizenship.
Nevertheless, eight million of our
best Americans with equal sincerity
challenge us to prove to them our
right to such place. They are the
boys of America, ranging from IL to
16 years of age, willing to pursue
the highest American ideals, and
needing only proper leadership to
make them men of character, trained
for citizenship.
These boys have at their disposal
an average of 5000 hours OF unsup-
ervised play per year. They are not
only willing to equip themselves to
meet the nations greatest need, but
they come with a tried and proved
program that promotes the interest
and pleasure of the boys while it adj
vances the cause of good citizenship.
The program is that of the Boy
Scouts of America. These eight
million boys are eligible but have not
been enrolled in that movement be-
cause the necessary leadership could
not be provided.
This challenge is reiterated in ev-

Blue Valley Efficiency


Many factors have contributed to
make it possible for Blue Valley to
overcome the handicaps of very low
dairy cattle population per square
mile in the states whose farmers we
have served in the past, and served
them better than anybody else.
These factors can all be covered
by three words-Blue Valley Effici-
ency. We have had to develop super
ior efficiency in cream shipping, in
butter manufacture and in butter
marketing. Otherwise our service
would be no better than others, and
the farmers would never have made
Blue Valley as big as it is today.
The superior Blue Valley Efficien-
cy in all departments of the creamery
business will be back of the Blue
Valley Sweet Cream Creamery here.
All this will count in the sweet cream
market we are about to create for
you. On account of your favorable
position for heavy production and
quick delivery, this superior efficiency
will count even far more in prices
here than in territory of low COW pop
ulation per square mile.

creamery, to the can washer, to the
method of pasteurization, to the
starter and churn men, the cutting
and wrapping of the butter, the cool
ers, transportation, delivery trucks
hundred small processes all subject
to oversights and mistakes and there
fore all in need of constant supervis-
ion and checks.
Only the fact that the number of
Blue Valley creameries is small as
compared with the large number Of
local Minnesota creameries to make
the same volume of butter, makes it
possible to enforce the thorough uni
formity essential to maintaining the
standing of the brand.
Systematic and Cheap Distribution
Blue Valley butter is never sold
in tubs. 1t is never sold by commits
sion men or to spectators. 1t never
gets on the big open wholesale mar
kets.
Blue Valley butter is sold only in
the trade-marked Blue Valley pack
age. In every large city where we
have a cremery and in New York City,
Blue Valley butter is sold only direct
from our own refrigerated trucks by
Blue Valley statesmen. In hundred
other cities representatives sell Blue
Valley butter only in the same stand
ard Blue Valley way.
There are no uncontrolled expens-
es and profits on Blue Valley butter
between us and the grocer. There is
no long string of middlemen in be-
tween. Blue Valley butter always
reaches the individual consumer in
the trade-marked package, and all
distribution is supervised and con-
trolled by US.

Hospitals are Needed

The American Legion knows that
adequate hospital facilities are lack
ing in Minnesota for the care of dis
abled veterans, particularly the tub
CIRCULAR and neuro-phsychiatric pa
tients. However, all appeals for the
prompt construction of these hos
pitfalls having failed after two years
of urging, the help of our state Of
fcials has been enlisted. Governor
Preus has instructed Adjutant Gen
eral Rhinow to ascertain the exact
needs of the disabled men in Mime
sofa. The American Legion is help
ing to secure this data, and asks ev-
cry tubecular service man to notify
the adjutant general that he would
like hospital treatment. 1t makes no
difference whether these comrades
are getting compensation or not,
they are old or new cases, pulmonary
or surgical, active or inactive, or
inactive, or whether they have been
or are now in hospital. The object
is to learn how many buddies need
hospital treatment. When this data
is available, Minnesota will send an
official delegation to Washington to
show the need and demand the con-
struction of the necessary hospitals.

In the Rush of Life
In the rush of life, let's not forget
our buddies whose eyes are closed in
death. Far away we left them
sleeping for enternity. While we
live, each Memorial Day, let US keep
their memory green-those 32,587
comrades who sleep across the sea-.
And when we are gone, let us leave
behind us a fund with which to hon
or their memory. Help make the
graves fund grow.

Today Blue Valley butter is the
best known brand of butter in Amer
lea and has been so for a number of
years.
To you as cream producer this
fact will mean much in dollars and
cents, with the Blue Valley Sweet
Cream Creamery right at your door.
Millions of individual consumers
know the blue and yellow trade
marked package of Blue Valley but
ter. Millions ask for it. Millions use
it.
Blue Valley is as familiar a name as
any standard household article
throughout the big cities of the East
and South, the smaller manufacture
ing towns and the pleasure resorts
of seashore and mountain.
1t follows people from one city to
another and from one part of town
to another. In a hundred and more
cities it is always within their reach,
right at a corner grocery, always the
familiar package, always the familiar
signs, always the same dependable
Blue Valley.
Do you see now why millions of
consumers are always asking for it
and willing to pay more to get it? Do
you see why thousands of grocers are
willing to handle it and pay cash
when it gets in their ice box? Do you
see the big value of the Blue Valley
brand to you in getting full value

Better Butter Marketing


The one Blue Valley principle and
method which above all others will
make the Blue Valley Sweet Cream
cry here of great and permanent
value to you as cream producer, is
our system of marketing the butter
made from your cream.
That system more than anything
else will insure you full value for
your cream. No other butter market
ing system brings back to you as
much of the consumers dollar. No
other system ever will.
We started it % years ago, and we
have stuck to it ever since. We have
built it better and bigger every year.
Many difficulties have been met and
overcome and costly mistakes have
been made. At times the temptation
to break away and go the easy way
of the usual wholesale marketing has
been great, but we have always stuck
by our principle of marketing B-ue
Valley butter in the only right way
and keep faith with the thousands of

favorable production conditions, will
be applied. They have made Blue

To Unity All Flag Rules

June 14-15, at the suggestion of
the Legion National Americanism,
a meeting will be called at Washing
ton, D. C. to draw up definite and un-
form rules for paying respect to Old
Glory. Legion investigation shows
that there are many so-called "offic-
ial" methods of carrying and display
ing the flag. The aim of this meeting
will be to make absolutely uniform
and official flag regulations and to
tell everyone just how the Star
Spangled Banner should be honored.
All patriotic organizations, civic bod
les, the army, navy, marine corps, de"
partment of labor and bureau of ed
pcation will be invited to participate

is fed to the cities according to con-
sumner demand. In that way the sup
ply of Blue Valley butter in any one
city is never greater than the demand
and no sacrifice in price is necessary
to move it.
The distribution of Blue Valley
butter, as you will see, is orderly,
systematic and controlled. Blue Val
ley butter is merchandized, not mar
keted in the common wholesale way.
The supply at any one point is adj
justed to the demand, and the price
is governed by the demand at the
point of consumption and not at the
point of production.
In that way Blue Valley has mar
ket all it's own, and the price of Blue
Valley butter is not affected by fuc-
tuations in the big open wholesale
markets to the same extent as the
price on butter that must be sold on
those markets. Also, the consumer
demand makes the price higher, our
own distributing system cuts out mid
clemens profits and reduces expenses
to minimum and as result the but
terfat price back to the cream pro-
Queer is higher.

in selling as cheaply as possible.
That, of course, is not to the in
terest of the cream producer.

Interest
With the opening of the Blue Val
ley Sweet Cream Creamery this SUI
perior butter marketing system for
the first time will be open to farmers
marketing sweet cream.
No other creamery markets any
where near the same volume of but
ter in that direct way. No other
creamery sells as much butter under
so well known brand. Blue Val
ley's owning and selling the branded
butter assures you that we are always
trying to get the highest possible
price from the consumer. That is
very different from what would be
the case, did we sell our butter to
stores which put it into their own
brands. They might use their butter
brand as leader at cut prices, and in
any event would always be interested
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1923-05-17
Back of the Brand

Back of the Blue Valley brand of
butter are hundreds of activities nee
ecessary to maintain its standing.
Advertising is a necessary part of
these activities, but only small part.
Advertising alone doesn't establish
and maintain a brand of butter. Only
quality that will keep till the butter
is consumed, and uniformity, will do
that.
So the leadership of the Blue Val
ley brand reaches way back to the
cream grader in the Blue Valley
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1923-05-17

farmers who trust us with their
cream.
After all is said and done, cream
cry is only part of the system by
which the farmers cream reaches the
consumer as butter, and on the
creamery's ability to maket the but
ter cheaply and at high prices de-
ponds the price the farmer will get
for his cream. Blue Valley from it's
very beginning has recognized its OBJ
legation in this respect and has sue
ceeded in meeting it fully.
A Long and Hard Task
1t has been long and hard task,
we confess, to build up the Blue VAL
ley butter marketing system to its
present outstanding position and USE
fulness to Blue Valley patrons.
For one thing, it has required %
years of time. 1t has also required
much patience, a great deal of hard
work, much money, constant care and
watchfulness, a willingness to take
risks and an abundance of faith.
But we are through it all. The
Blue Valley butter marketing system
has been fully established. The pio-
neer work and the mistakes have all
been paid for, and you who choose to
sell your sweet cream to the Blue
Valley Sweet Cream Creamery here
when it opens for business, will get
the full benefit of it.
