Show I I DAIRYING H MANAGERS AND SECRETARIES I OF CREAMERIES AND I CHEESE FACTORIES. H' Wc arc inclined to think there arc H 'l;uC few managers and secretaries of H creameries and cheese factories that H fully realize the import of their duties B In the small local creamery and M cheese factory the manager or sccrc- 1 lary often gives his services for the B good of the cause, while in other M cases only a meager sum is paid for H the managing of an institution that H docs from $25,000 to $50,000 worth of B business per year. Wc arc informed H on good authority that many small M creameries and cheese factories have H failed because they did not receive B the proper management. If the farm- H -crs- fully realized the duties of our H factory managers, they would be H quick to select a person with good B business judgment and pay him ac- B cordingly for Hi-? services. The man- B agcr should! be something more tlvnn Hi a mere selling nnd purchasing agent. H' Ha should understand something H about buttcrmaking, enough to be H a,ble to pass judgment upon the work I, of the buttcrmakcr; he should know B whether the nvakcr is obtaining the m Proper overrun, for thousands of dol- m lars tare lost annually to our local B creameries, because that buttermakcF BBH " B fails to get the proper overrun; he m should know how the testing is being l dpne, so that the buttcrmakcr cannoc Hulti, his low overrun by under rcad- 1 iiur the (est; the manager should be BB m ever awakcj to putting good literature H in the hands of his patrons; he should B do everything in his power to get the H farnror to know what his cows arc do- M ug for him; nnd there arc many oth- H ej? tjitngs that properly come within H tli domniu of creamery and cheese H factory management. bbbbbI M A man that discharges these duties H ably and well, deserves recognition in H tlfc fornytff a money compensation.1 H The honor which he gets is not H enough. Whon the creamery dirco- H iofs come to the understanding of H wjiat the position of manager moans, H tljicy will be more than willing to BBH ft H compensate the man who holds it, B im if he is the right person he can H epn for the creamery infinitely more Hi thin" it will be necessary to pay him, H Unless Ihc small creamery sees life Bbbv BBHj importance of giving their business better management, they arc doomed to fall into the hands of the larger creameries that do. Right business principles will prevail and wrong ones must fall by the wayside. Creamery and cheese factory managers, man-agers, you arc holding a responsible position. Do you fully realize the ... duties of your position and arc you discharging them to the best of yours ability. 'Hoard's Dairyman. , |
