Taking figures for the year 1899, it received the milk of 283 cows from 52 patrons, handled 1,675.080 pounds of milk and made a product from the sale of which it realized $18,237.18, of which $14,450 19 net was returned to the patrons in payment of the butter fat taken from the milk. The difference of $3,- 767.00 represents cost of manufacture, transportation charges, interest on stock and amount laid aside each year to be applied towards taking up shares of stock out standing. The capital stock of $5,000.00 is made up of 100 shares at $50.00 each, of which 18 shares are still in the hands of the association. A skimming plant, costing $1100.00, was put in at Sbedds station in 1897, and arrangements are now in prog ress to establish another skimming station at Tangent at an estimated cost of $1600.- 00, which it is expected will be in operation by April 1st. Following is a statement showing the number of patrons, average number of pounds of butter fat to the patron per year, total amount of butter fat handled and gross receipts of the creamery during the five years that it lias been in operation; Represents the Freight Bills paid by us iu one week.
