Show MILK CONCERN I DOES BIG STUNTj Brigs Thousands of Dollars Dol-lars Into Valley. Farmers Get Better Prices Pri-ces for MilK. Tne following report of the Cache Valley Condensed Milk Factory, given at the recent early meeting Indicates that the factory Is unquestionably a great institution for the valley. The report reads: MAI.KS. i.'ondenscd milk $ (iO.'JTH 711 Cheese rj."G." J.ri Butter :7,'J74 "1!

Iu lliol we paid an average price of 71 cents per hundred for milk, or XI per cent less than was paid for milk that we manufactured manu-factured Into butter and cheese and M cents less than we made Into condensed con-densed milk this year. We attribute the raise of ;i:i per cent for milk used to make butter aud cheese to the condensed milk factories taking up a great quantity of the milk and shipping it out of the state aud thereby creating a scarcity of milk for the manufactory of butter and cheese. |
