About Blue Valley
The Right Price

1t was a long step in the right
direction. 1t improved Blue Valley
service immensely, and it forced 9TH
ers to follow Blue Valley as best
they could. 1t gave the farmer his
money at once. He is entitled to
that and should have it.
Weekly Advance Quotations
When Blue Valley started paying
cash for every can of cream, we also
started sending out a butterfat quo
tation to all Blue Valley shippers and
to prospective shippers, good for one
week.
AS other creameries fell in line on
paying cash. they did the same.
At first the making of butter
fat quotation that would hold good
for week was not difficult, because
the butter market quotations did not
fuctuate very much in those days,
and so it was pretty safe to make
such quotations.
The practice was a great business
getter. The farmer knew what he
would get when he shipped his cream
and the advance butterfat quotation
seemed almost quicker than cash.
n
Against Producers Interests
However, conditions soon devel-
oped that made this practice actually
work against the interest of the
cream producer.
For one thing it added greatly to
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1923-05-31

the creamery expense. Sending out,
say only 100000 postal cards cost
in postage alone $1,000. 90 a week or
$52,0O0.O0 year, to say nothing of
the printing and addressing expenses.
All of this, like all other creamery ex-
penses, in the end had to come out
of the cream price.
Also, butter market conditions
changed. The gradual disappearance
of dairy butter from the big butter
markets, and much greater influx
OF creamery butter which could be
graded in wholesale way, made but
ter quotations far more sensitive and
fiuctuating from day to day, as traded
in on the big butter boards and ex-
changes. While Blue Valley Butter
has never been traded in in this way,
and for that reason its sales price has
never been subject to as frequent or
as sharp fluctuations, the price is af-
fected to the extent that the quota
tons express the actual daily con-
sumner demand.
The setting up of definite grades
governing large volume of cream
cry butter and the DEVELOPMENT of
cold storage facilities made specula-
ton possible, and this too became a
big factor in the making of whole
sale butter quotations and made fuc-
tuations in the quotations still more
frequent and uncertain.

Leaders point out that the weak
ness in all potato marketing agencies
Heretofore started in this section is,
that they have attempted to do bust

cation or assurance of a volume of
business sufficient to make agency an
important factor in the market, with
a voice as to price.
Organization work is going for
ward rapidly, according to those in
charge of the state headquarters in
st. Paul. Meetings held thus far
have been well attended and grow
ers have indicated determination to
see this project to success.
First contracts were signed last
week, in most instances by local
leaders, under whose direction field
work will be carried on. No paid So
licitors are being employed, each
county committee being responsible
for obtaining the needed acreage in
that district.

Lake City Encampment


This year the annual encampment
will be held at Lake City. The en-
tire 9Th Regiment will be there from
July 18th to the End.
During this period each company
receives proper training in military
maneuvers and instructions in regi-
mental formations. The federal gov
eminent authorizes and encourages
these annual training camps.
Company an" of Sank Centre is
the highest ranking machine gun COM
pany in the regiment 1t will go to
Lake City this year, the strongest and
the best equipped unit that ever re-
presented Sank Centre.
Captain Scott is building up an or
ganization of men that are intensely
interested in their work and are keen
ly anxious to keep Company en-"
ranking among the leading military
outfits in Minnesota. At the present
time 70 men are enlisted, and each
week brings new recruits into the
armory. The dollar received each
Monday night is appreciated, as was
manifested by the men on last Mon
day night, it being pay night. At
camp, privates will receive two dol
lars day, and all expenses paid.
Other men will receive pay according
to their rank.

Control of so per cent of the COM
mercial potato acreage in Minnesota
is the first consideration in the con-
tract now being circulated by the
committee in charge of perfecting a
new farmer-owned potato sales agen-
cy, according to Walter Oby of De-
troit, treasurer of the general state
organization committee.
Gall contracts hinge upon signing
up so per cent of the acreage in the
state, as well as so per cent of the
acreage in each county in which we
are to work. If that end is not at
tanned none of the agreements will
be valid. While that task must be
completed by March 1, 1924, under
our plan, we hope to wind up the
work long before that date. Then

overseas. The letter reminds one
strongly of the elder Roosevelt in its
straightforward terseness, and evinc-
es the same remarkable memory, as
is shown by the fact that he corrects
the claim of the soldier that they met
on the first day of the Scissors Drive
and says it was on the second day,
when he was found by the Colonel,
rubbing his eyes because of the eff
feet of being gassed and in evident
distress.
Mr.. Roosevelt cites as his reason
for remembering the date so distinct

to avoid doing so.

till the Goth of the following month.
Blue Valley soon recognized that
this practice was bad for any COM
munity. 1t slowed up payments and
settlements, large and small, all
around. Somebody had to pay in
terest on all of the money held back.
AS always, the farmer did, be-
cause he couldn't pass it on to some
body else then any more than he can
do so today. Outside of his bank
loans he didn't pay direct interest on
all his money that was held up on an
average of about three weeks, but he
most assuredly had to pay it in high
er prices for what he bought and
couldn't pay for till he got his cream
money.
Cash always buys cheaper and
buys more than credit.
Blue Valley Cash at Once
AS told in one of these articles,
Blue Valley was the first to change
to cash price for cream.
We started out to give farmers
the best marketing service, and doing
business on their money didn't meas
ure up to the Blue Valley ideals of
good service.
1t was a revolutionary step in the
creamery business, but it had to be
taken if dairying was to be profitable
to the average farmer. AS in many
other forward movemets, Blue VAL
ley was the pioneer and the leader.

The Blue Valley price for butterfat
is determined every day in the year
solely by the price at which Blue Val
lev Butter sells to the retailer.
Therefore, it is the right price.
To cream producers everywhere, no
matter how they market their cream,
the right price for buttertat is OF
utmost Importance because the right
price is always the highest in the long
run.
The price which the Blue Valley
Sweet Cream Creamery here will pay
for Sweet Cream will be determined
exactly in the same manner. The high
price at which Blue Valley butter
made from Sweet Cream will sell from
day to day under the Blue Valley sys,-
tenn of direct distribution of the best
known brand of butter in America
will automatically fix the price of but
terfat in Sweet Cream here.

Iubercular Veterans Must Wait
General Hines, U. S. Veterans
Bureau Director, on his visit to Min
nesota last week, declared that con-
struction of the 25O-bed neuro-
psychiatric hospital at St. Cloud, Min
nesota will be commenced without de-
lay. He stated that no money is
available at this time for construction
of a tubercular hospital in the north
west, but that facts and figures as
to the need of such hospital should
be placed in his hands, pending
future recommendation for hospital
construction. This, the American
Legion and Auxiliary of Minnesota
will do; and in addition will, with the
aid of Senator Shipstead and Min
nesota Representative in Congress,
demand a congressional investigation
into the lack of adequate hospital
facilities for disabled veterans in
Minnesota; and will endeavor to have
General Organ, chairman of the
congressional investigating committee
come to Minnesota and learn of the
need for a tubercular hospital here.
While here, General Hines stated that
Mlnnesota's request for a tubercular
hospital came too late. AS a matter
OF fact the Minnesota Legion and the
State Board of Health have been urg-
ing its construction for three years,
but without results.

This uncertainty in wholesale but
ter quotations made the making OF
butterfat quotations for week In
advance guess work, and guess work
is always bad.
Naturally, it forced Blue Valley to
be conservative. A business cannot
be run at loss, and in order to pro-
tect ourselves we had to keep on
the safe side and-sometimes-
were too conservative and before the
week was over our advance price
would not be as high as sales prices
and market conditions warranted.
The farmer then didn't get as much
rs he should have had. While we al
ways tried to make up for the loss the
following week, the loss is never made
up right in that way, because new
shippers would be added the follow
ing week and the same shippers do
net sell the same amount of cream
from week to week.
The whole system Of advance but
terfat quotations was wrong, We
found, because it forced us and ev-
erybody else to guess and speculate
and no business of real value and
service to cream producers can be
conducted in that way.
At least, Blue Valley is not in the
guessing and specializing business.
~
No Advance Quotations by Blue
Valley
These considerations led Blue Val
ley to take another step which was
considered revolutionary and which
yet remains to be taken by many
ether creameries.
We discontinued entirely the adj
vance quotations on butterfat.

sending out weekly postal cards and

appreciated this to the extent that
Blue Valley patronage has been
growing ever since.
The Right Cash Price Here
The same sound system of making
butterfat prices will be in effect in
the new Blue Valley Sweet Cream
Creamery here.
The spot cash price for butterfat
In Sweet Cream will be governed
every day by the sales price obtained
for the Blue Valley Butter made from
it: The direct Blue Valley butter
selling system insures the highest
possible sale price and, therefore,
the right price for the cream.
You will get the benefit when you
sell your Sweet Cream to the new
Blue Valley Sweet Creamery here.
You will get spot cash, not as spec
lal favor but as your right.
And you will get correct weights
and tests-to one-half pounds and
one-half points.
After all, it is not only the higher
price that makes the cream check
bigger. Three factors have to be
right-the price, the weight and the
test-and you get all three of them
at the Blue Valley Sweet Cream
Creamery.
Try it Out for Yourself
Be in position to try out the Blue
Valley Sweet Cream Creamery when
it opens for business in about two
weeks.
Get ready to sell Sweet Cream to
it. Butter made from it will sell for
a high price under the thoroughly es-
tablished Blue Valley direct distrib-
uting system, and you will get the
benefit in a high cash price-the right
price-at all times.
