In fact it Is not suluclcnt to make the Investment pay. The butter turned out Is llrst class and Is In de mand at the hlgbest market prices. The trouble Is In getting a sulllcient ipiaiitlty or milk. The runners do not seem to take hold or the Industry very readily, and the supply or milk Is lighter now than on the start. One reason lor this lack or appreciation on tlie part or the rarmers Is U-lleved to lie the trouble or getting the .ullk to the creamery. This can only lie rem edied by the establishment of regular milk routes, and until this Is done It Is not likely that tlie amouiil of milk will be Increased much. AriKAtTKD IIV THE BaHHECI'K.
