Plant Of the Cooperative
Creamery Will be Enlarged
Stockholders of Sank Lake Associa.
ton Will Meet Saturday Evening
at Community Club Rooms

Saturday evening, Sept. 25, there
will be a meeting at the Community
Club rooms of the directors and
stockholders of the Sank Lake Co
operative Creamery Association to
discuss the advisability of remodel.
ing and enlarging of the presend
creamery building.
Business has grown so rapidly in
the past few years that the present
building is too small to accommodate
the business. In the first five months
of this year the business of the Saul
Lake creamery enjoyed gain of 49,
600 pound over the year 1925; had
it not been for the dry weather which
this community suffered, the officers
of the association estimate that they
would have a gain of 100000 pounds
this year over any other years pro-
duction.
The new addition in mind is to be
24x30, and will be constructed at
the rear of the present building and
will house the new refrigeration sys-
tenn which is to be installed, and tic
care for the coal. With this new ad-
Idition coal will be purchased in car
lots and thus mean a large saving.
Binder the present arrangement less
that one half car of coal can be
housed.
The room now used for refrigera-
ton will be used for a print room
and the present coal bin will house
the new ice machine. 1t is also
planned to move the main office to
the second floor and thus give more
room in the manufacturing depart
ment.
