VOTE FOR IT! URGES SUPPORT FOR CREAMER Sepecinteniieth MGiaive Gores Res: sons Why Creamery Should Have Undivided Support. “The Itasca Cooperative creamery paid 30 cents for churning cream, 34 cents for sweet cream and 45c for milk during the fimst two weeks of October,” said Supt. A. J,’ McGuire of the state experimental farm, in. reviewing the work of the creamery for the year. “The butter sold for an average price of 31 cents so that the farm- er received within one cent as much a pound for their butter fat as the putter sold for. “The creamery is paying a good price for its volume of business. During the first two weeks of Oc- tober it received but 1039.54 pounds of butter fat. Of this amount 120.9 pounds was in the milk, 218-46 pounc4 in the special cream and pounds in the churning cream. The creamery should be getting three times this amount of churning crear, It is not getting the support of all the farmens it should. There were tha names of thirty patrons on the last pay roll. There is a demand for dairy butter, due to the higher price of creamery putter, and mapy farmers are taking the supposed advantage to any farmer to leave the cream- ery for the difference of a few cents a pound between the price of dairy butter and butter fat. The time will come again when dairy butter will be a drug on the market. There iis not a store-keeper in Grand Rap- ids who has not iest money in hand- ling daimy butter during the summer, months ‘before the creamery was built, and there is not a farmer who sold putter before the creamery) was built but who received a lower price for it during the summerd than the creamery could pay. “When a farmer considers leav- ing the creamery he should ask him- self: Do I want the creamery to close? If he honestly believes) that the creamery is po use to him, nor will be im the future he is justified’ in quitting. But if he knows the creamery is to his advantage, if he} realizes that he could not sell his} butter around town if every farm-~ er was doing the same thing, then he fs not acting the part of a wise man or a just one either, in omnes | tthe creamery. | “No farmer should churn -and sell butter who is accessible to the creamery. Farm women have work enough without churning. The co- operative creameries have done} more to lift the load of labor from, the shoulders of farm women than, any other institution, and it has made the dairy industry the most pig fitable branch of farming. The farmer or the farmer's wife, who will not support the co-operative creamery of their neighborhood are shoving aside the most helpful hand that has ever} reached out to them in the form of business enterprise “The creamery is to the advan- tage of every one, and we should all support it. The few cents that seem a loss to a farmer now, between( what the creamery pays for butter, fat and what butter retails at, is misleading. Don’t hold a penny up so close to your eyes now that you can- not see that the dainy business of this section cannot be successful ex- cept through co-operative creamer- ies. ; “What the Experimental Farm does! for tthe creamery: The Experimental farm supplied $202.00 worth of lum- ber, and $214.0 worth of machinery in starting the creamery, and during, the first year paid $567.0 in cashto- wand the running expenses of the creamery. During the month of Sep- tember the experimental darm paid $57.93, toward the running expenses and will pay something over that, amount for October. WORK FOR IT! Here is a fac simile of the good roads amendment as it will appear on the little pink ballot, and as it should be voted, at the election on the 5th day of November: “It is true that the experimental farm supplies an outside trade with Most of its product. but it is because it pays the creamery best to do The farmers are supplying all weet cream and milk the cream~ can dispose of.

The amount turned jnto, the creamery by the experimental farm thus far has amounted to over 17 percent of tthe value. of the tot- al product of the experimental farm. “The experimental farm is not giving anything in charity; it is a importance to the farmer that it ia 700.17 | fect goal. score 7 touchdowns were scored and one more to the experimental farm. The ex- perimental farm is imterested in all the creameries in northern; Minne- sota, but. to the farmers living near Grand Rapids, this creamery means the most important market they have A creamery is a cash market, a mar- ket, owned amd controled by the farmers, and while the experimntal farm may be a decided help to it, re- jmember that ‘God helps most those who help themselves.’ “The creamery has done a good business. Kt has paid its way and there is no indbtdiness except that of the original cost which is covered by individual notes- There is a big demand for “Itasca Creamery Butter” and if the creamery could get churn- ing cream enough| to supply this de- mard, it could pay the farmers as high a price as any creamery in the ‘state. “The present price of potatoes should teach the farmers the im- portance of the dairy industry. The creamery is the dairyman’s only, re- liable market. Give it your support, co-operate with your neighbors and take turns in bringing in thd cream. If there is something about the run- ning of the creamery that you do_ not understand, as to how the price, is made, or as to the weights or test, cr anything else, call in and{ see the secretary, Mr. Niles. The creamery accounts are open to all patrons.” waded corconiontetencenzendeeetoniney School News Notes Edited by High School Staff stoontoniesiretontoatontos Hibbing will play a return game With our boys Friday November 1- Muriel Fairbanks went to her home in Gocdlard for 4 short visit Friday and returned Monday noon.
