Show vvsvwsvwwswws Veal Bill: -i Roosevelt, Utah March 14, 1946 Over here in the Basin there seems to be an air of expectancy; a feeling that very soon now ' something is going to happen that ' will make northeastern Utah an unrivaled industrial area. Until yesterday I wasn't aware of the fact that the Basin already has that something that makes a good business country out of any sizeable size-able "chunk" of land. But after talking with Grant Caldcr from Vernal I soon realized that the dairy and creamery business of the Basin is a pretty substantial enterprise, and one that has considerable con-siderable future possibilities. Of course time didn't permit me to do more than go over a small portion por-tion of the surface with Grant Calder, but I absorbed enough information to convince me that this local dairy and creamery business is entitled to a big hello instead of hurried up tipping of the hat. Right today here in Roosevelt the Calder Brothers are building a new creamery that will be unsurpassed un-surpassed any where in the State if not in the West. When their plant is completed they'll pastur-ize pastur-ize and bottle milk; they'll make ; butter and malted milk, in fact they'll be equipped to produce J anything that can be made from ' milk or cream, and all that right here in this little old town of Roosevelt. There will be one of the most modern cold storage units in the land located in that new Calder creamery and from that cooler will go cheese, butter and powdered milk to all parts of the country. Why today, even be-;5 be-;5 foreothe walls are up on the 'V plant. Chicago manufacturers it' have been out here in the Basin '.- contracting for malted and pow-K pow-K dcred milk. They think highly of Jr the Uintah Basin's dairy pro- ducts. V The new Caldcr plant will cost J in the neighborhood of $145,000, J and boy that "aint hay", but it's IS going to take plenty of hay to fed the cows that will produce the milk and cream necessary to " run the Calder plant. I'll keep close watch of the plant as its construction progresses, and ray be before long we can get some pictures and a good feature j story on it, Bill. JL Anyway the moral of this story j .is; don't throw your old pants in the rag bag until you've look-J look-J vl through all the pockets, may bp you'll find a twenty dollar bill. So while we're going about I with our noses-in the air sniffing ? for opportunities and new lucrative luc-rative undertakings we seem to be overlooking a top bet in the Basin's already established dairy and creamery business . I suppose you'll be dropping I around for a visit in about tvo i more months, Bill. I'll try to have everything all ready for you by the time you arrive. Take - it easy and write, i As Ever Unc |
