TH£ £J KEKNITIKXl) CBEAMEKI,

"Will It Ke Operated By a Home Company or Sold To An OaUld«r,

That theie is money in a creamery to be operated here in Greenfield -has been demonstrated beyond a doubt. It failed under the old joint stock company management just as any other business would fail where the plant cost three times too much and had too many bosses or managers. H. L. Strickland as President and Will Hughes as Secretary of the Board of Directors managed the creamery very successfully for one year. In addition to paying all operating expenses, $1,169.88 was paid on old debts, including $81 interest. The cash on hand was increased $42.45, making a net gain for the year of $1,212.43. This was a very excellent showing and could be very largely increased. These men did uot attempt to work up any large amount of new business, but properly took care of all the old. A good crsamery will pay the patrons well. Warren Corny, ock, in 31 months, received in casli f' mi!k §1,348 94 or $43.51 per month. Others could do equally as well. ThirA how you could increase the f-ii:lity of your farms an also secure a sung sum in cash every month. Dairying pays and pays big.

George R. Wysong, a successful business man of Indianapolis, was here today looking after the ylant, and he may purchase it. We should prefer, however, to see it owned and operated by1 a home man, because some one is going to make some money out of it, as well as afford a flna market for all surplus milk. The creamery here should be started soon. It is too good an enterprise to stand idle.

For the flag.

TJse following letter was sent by the trustee of one of our Putnam townships to all the teachers in his districts. The letter has the endorsement of the counfcj superintendent and we herewith give it in full:

Realising that the perpetuity of our country, the stability of our national institutions and tke safety of our government depends to & large degree on the principles inculcftted in the minds of our youth, I would suggest as one means of generating "and developing these ideal virtues would be originate and cultivate with their first ideas a proper devotion and respect for the American flag. It is my «bject that this flag shall float over every school house in~this township and I think that it would be advisable for every school to purchase its own flag by popular eubsoription. x'fcus each scholar would feel that he had a direct and personal interest in it. I would further suggest that as a reward of some meritorious consideration some one scholar be appointed custodian of the flag to see that on each day, weather permitting, the flag is in its proper place. This duty should be rotated and should last only for a given period of time. It is my desire that this will arouse sufficient interest for the consummation of the plan at the earliest convenient time, and thatjno more urgent suggestions may be necessary.—Greencaslle Banner-Times.

Greenfield papers are again agitating a north and south railroad. We would be pleased to see our sister city to the fiwest secure another railroad. There isn't a bit of jealously about us, anyway, what harm do the improvements at 'Greenfield do Knightstown? These little slings and slurs in newspapers of neighboring towns are the height of folly aud foolishness.— Kuightstown Sun.

There are soma quear people in this world. If they go to a physician they expert to pay him fifty cents for a perscription. If thay go to a lawyer, they expect to pay him five dollars for an opinion. If they go to an editor of a paper, tliey expect^hiaa to write them §up and furnish extra copies for their uncles, aunts and cousins to the fifth generation free of charge. Give us a fair count and fair fees.—Knightstown Sun.
