citation, the stockholders being COM
posed of farmers and business men
of the immediate vicinity and else
where in the county. The Board of
Directors is composed of the follow
ing men: President, VIM. Miller,
Accident; Vice President, A. c. Sny-
der, Accident; Secretary and Treas
urer, NJ. H. Dean, Addison, Pa; Man
ager, R. w. Forquer; Business Man
ager, NJ. G. Georg, both of this coun-
ty. Visitors to the factory do not Of
ten see any of these gentlemen, how
ever, but are accorded a courteous
welcome by the gentlemen in charge
who, when asked his official title,
replies: 90, | just make the cheese, -
and will bear out his statement by
demonstrating how this interesting
process is carried on. This efficient
gentleman is Roland Zook from Phil
adelphia, who has several years Of
active experience in cheese manufac-
turing to his credit. He is assisted
by Frank Lewis, Of the Ridge, the
two running the factory along with
an output of from $50 to 400 pounds
daily, some of which is shipped to
New York, some to South Browns
vile, Pa, and other markets, while
much is sold locally to the consumer.
In addition to this, about 400 gallons
Of milk is shipped daily to the Hagan
Ice Cream Company of Uniontown,
Pa, which firm also buys a large sup
ply Of unsalted butter from the fac
tory. The milk is gathered daily by
Fred Custer after being poured into
large containers by the farmers and
placed aside to await his coming. 1t
IS then taken to the factory where it
goes through the process, an ex-
tremely interesting one, of being con-
verified into cheese, which metamor-
phosis is completed in about six
hours, after which it is put aside to
age and to market. Financially
speaking the enterprise is of course,
as yet in its infancy, but with eff
clent workmen, intelligent manage
ment and loyal stockholders there is
every reason to believe that in time
it will be an asset to the community.
Christian NJ. Livengood, one of
Grantsville's oldest citizens, passed
his seth birthday very quietly at his
home, no especial celebration having
marked the event, but the usual daily
klndnesses Of his family help make
his life more bearable IN his afflic-
ton, and an occasional visit from
some of his friends and neighbors is
always welcomed. Mr.. Livengood's
health is good as usual, and he goes
about the house with the use of his
cane to assist him in his blindness:
His birthday was on the oath inst.
and he is probably the oldest man
hereabouts.
