Oaddls, the crenrnory man. arrived in Medford last week and al once commenced laying plana for the erection of a creamery in Medford.

Reynolds, j mid will at once commence tho erection oi a two-story DMiiaing, 2-1x30 feet In size, In which to install the creamery plant which be has ordered. The plant will bave a capacity of 1500 pounds of buttor per duy. The site chosen for the creamery Is an exceptionally good one, having convenient sewerage connec tions and being- just far enough from the business part of tbe city to insure the operation of It from too much in trusion from tbe inquisitive, but close enough for the farmers to conveniently visit when In town.
