CREEK. creek only our Farmers Receive High Prices For Dairy Products. There are approximately (5,000 cream fries in the United States, making a total of 500,000,000 pounds of butter annually. The average net price per pound paid farmers for butter fat ranged from 4 to 5 cents higher in, 1007 than in 11)00. This would Indicate au increased return of 20 to 3.r million dollars to the patrons for the, year just passed. An interesting thing about the cream ery business is the fact that 1,800 of the 0,000 creameries are co-operative plants and the number of co-operative cream eries is constantly growing. The greater number of creameries that liave goue out of business for one rea son or another in tho past few years have been tho individual creameries, owned by individuals or corporations. Something over a thousand cream eries, mainly in the middle northwest, have reported the results of the past year's business to the department of agriculture. These reports aro nearly all from sections wliRre the local cream ery (either co-operative or individual) predominates. Careful estimates have been made from these reports which show that the net price paid farmers for butter fat at these creameries av eraged between 23 and 39 cents for tho year 1007. Tho lowest price paid was in June, when the average was be tween 24 and 25 cents. These prices are true only for the local creamery, which receives its eream or mule direct irom tanners wagons, where there is neither com mission to pay for buying cream nor freight or express charges for trans porting it to the churning plant. Commission and freight average from 2 to 3 cents per pound. Farmers sell ing cream to agents who have to ship the cream to distant churning points may expect to receive 2 to 3 cents lefas per pound for butter fat than prices paid by local creameries Tho United States department of Agriculture is desirous of gettiug ad ditional Information concerning the HIGHLAND NOTES.
