The co-operative system of dairying Is now so Important to dairyman, and the oast of transportation h.ijh, the creamery will m^et with more favor than the cheese factory, and will be more pruiitable. It is a queistion that eaa-h plsoe must decide for itself, after r.xV Tig into consideration all the cir- cumdtances. A general answer would b^ to build cheese factories in cheese . .•Tory seijtions. creameries in crea- mery sectioos ; and where there are neither eetablish according to the lo- cal Burroundings ; but in any case, it would be udvjsable to biiild so that I either cbeeae or butter may be ma&u- the need of good baildings and machin- I factored without much additio:nal ei- sry so pressing that the following ' P;^'^' f^J^ future of "^.J,'^J^''^„ij hi'nta oo btuJd-ing operating co-oper- ative creameries and cheese factories are submitted with the hope that they may be found viaefui ta securing the laterit improvements in structures to be u,»d for the manufacture of Cana- dian cheese and butter. VV e would urge the need of having the milk made into butter at the crea- mery in winter as well as during the summer. The saving of butter fr>jm the skim-miik. averaging about 1 lb. of butter p«r 100 Ihe.. of skim-milk, and the extra price obUmed for crea- mery batter as compared with dairy butter. wUl pay the expenses of man- ufacturing and seUmg at the creamery. In many cases the sef>arator creamery to be largely cheese in summer and butter in winter owing chiefly to cli- matic conditions.

A better average article may be produced and aLso goods of more uni- form quality, which wUl oomsequently bring a higher average price than pri- vate dairy goods. It tsFossible to moke a better quality of cheese ur butter in a private dairy than in a factory, in oase a person has the necessary skill a»i oonveniencea, but only under special circumstancea wiU it pay the dairyman to employ the labor and buy the utensiU required. Ootteiequently for the nvaas of farmers It will t>e wiser to adopt the co-opera- tiTe or factory plan in the manufactur- ing of dairy goods. -. Butter and cheese can be produced mure chea^^ly. becaiiae there is less outlay for Iai)or and capital on the co-operative plan, than there would be if each dairyman wvtuld buy the utensils and employ the labor necessary to munufacture the milk in his own dairy. The running expenses are aUso less. The abject of each permn engaged in the t>UiSia«<« should be to produce goods aa t>beaply as puesibla. Xh^ profits in dairying Lie between the price obtained and the cost of producing and market- â- ng. For instance if obeese sells for 10 o^nts per pound and it costs 9 cents to produce and uiaricet it. a profit of i cents per pound, is made. But if it s«lls for 1} cents and it costs 13 cents to produce it a profit of i cents is made oo each pound of cheese. Profits do not depend merely upon getting a high price, but in producing as cheaply as IXMsibls and then getting the high- est available price for lite goods. 3. Skilled labor may be employed in manufacturing. This is a day of spec- ialties. A farmer is not expected to gatiw- formation potsible in reference to feed- ing cows, care of milk and cream, metboda of coeduoting the business, plans of buildinijs and all matteirs per- taining to the dairy. The next i.'oint to decide Is the CONDUCTING THE FACTORY. There are several ways ot starting and coadiu-ting the busineas. but usu- ally it is either what is known, as "pri- vate enterprise" or the "joint stodB nwipany" plan. In the first way. some persoo or persons agree to build a suitabla building equip it properly, and manufai.-ture the milk ur cream at a oertam rate per pound, the patrons oootracting to furnish the mil'k from a certain number of cowe for a oertaia number of years. In this cose the private indlridual running all the risks. Usually charges a higher late than the joint stock factories. For cheese the rate usually varies fnxn one and one- half cents to two and one-half cents per pound, the patrons delivering the milk uo the milk stand or at the fac- toryâ€" usMially the former. For butter the rate varies tram three to four cents per pound. In the joint stoi-jt company method the patrocks and others also, subscribe all or a portioo of the money retiuired to build and equip the fa<-tcry. thus be- coming owners of the building and plant a* well as of the cows. This method h^H neveral advantages, the chief of which are: I. The shareholders, who ara chiefly portoos of the factory, have an inter- as tin its welfare, and are more likely to give it hearty fsu;>port than if it i« owned by somi' one else. i. The patruos re--eive the benefit of the prtrfits of mauufa-ture. which may be applied in reducing the oost of maaufaoture to shareholders to its low- aeit limit, after all charges have been paid ; or a dividevid may be declared each year after paying running tx- penses. cust of repairs, etc. SoDie ctieeae factories are able to haul the milk and manufacture the cheese of shareholderH for lees than one cent per pound. It is usual tc charge oon- shareholders an extra r»t* of at>out c(ieM)uarter of a cent per pound Un- less there is a man in the neighbor- hood who is likely to succeed as a man- be an expert in growing foods, in ' fger. and will undertake the work, it breeding and rearing dairy stock, and ! is betteir to start a factory on the aiao be an expert cheese or butter- j private eoterprise plan.

In- stead of hauling the whey, skim-milk and butter-milk back to the farm for feeding hogs. It will be more profitable to feed these hogs at or near the fac>- uory, where th*re are sufficient by- products to warrant the erection of suitable pens and the engagevuent ol a cooipeteat person to feed and care for the animals*. 3. There will be more wealth to the mass oi farmers, more ivmfort in the home, lena tired, worn-out farmers' wives and daughters, who are already overw\)rked. aovd lastly, if co-operative dairying is more largely adoiMed, there will be built up a national industry that will be a source ot national pride. Ihis last cannot be accomplisheu so long as private dairying takes the lead. L^HFJiSE FACaniV OK CUEAMERYf T'ais questiMi is trequently asked. Several times we have received a postal card with something like the following w rit ten upon it : "We are thinking of starting a cheerte factor.v or a creamery in this neighW>rh>.tod. Whuh would you adviae OS to build t" The answer to this depends upon cir- cuuLstancee. Of course those who ask art» anxious to know which will {>ay them best. Judging from the eiper- ie\uce of the Province ad a whole, we should conclude that the cheese factory has i>aid better than the creamery, as we b«ve more cheese factories than crei.iimeries. Bu^ there are some dis- tricts where a cheese factory cannot be successfttll.v carried vn unless for a short time during the summer, and even then it is uuder difficulties.
