Arinlnh Mver nnd TIprhprt XntiCREAMERY IS STARTED Enterprise of Schlosser Bros. Turns Wheels. At 1:30 p. m. Wednesday steam was turned, into the twelve-horsepower engine at the Schlosser Bros., creamery and the big Simplex churn began to revolve for the first time with a churning of about 200 pounds of butter. This creamery is one of the best in the state and is supplied with the most modern outfit of machinery and appliances. The neat brick building on Laporte street contains the office, receiving room, churning, storage department, refrigerators, engine and boiler room, nearly all fkored with cement and all notable for the air of perfect cleanliness that prevails throughout. All openings are screened and all woodwork is painted or oiled. The cream is received at a hoisting platform on the south side of the building and is emptied directly into the big cream vat. The milk has a different reception. It is taken in at the east side, where it is weighed and tested, each patron having an individual testing jar. The test is made in an Ideal tester, the invention of Prof. Babcock, of the Wisconsin agricultural college, who gave the in veniion to me aairv interests as a free gift. From the receiving tank the milk is pumped into a tempering vat to be warmed and thence it goes to the $500 separator, which turns the but ter fat out of one spout into the cool er and the skim milk out of another spout into the sterealizer, whence it is returned to the patron, clean and free from passible germs of disease. This institution has a capacity of ten thousand pounds of milk daily and, besides Samuel Schlosser, the resident owner, requires three men to operate it. The three Schlosser bro thers own creameries at several different points and they succeed in the business because they possess a com petent scientific knowledge of the processes, they have ample capital and by their honesty and reliability they readily secure the confidence of their patrons. The.enterprise just inaug urated is one that, is very welcome to Plymouth. Disher and Martin Bankuptcy. Hon. F. E.

The matter was held over for further

consideration. The engineer spoke also of the difficulties in getting brick for the new catchbasins and was directed to do the best he could. He has bought all of the Boss yard and would have engaged the Thomas brick but for the expense of hauling it from North township. In this connection it was stated that notification had been received from the Clinton brick works that the pa-

ving brick could not be furnished by thereuntil Aug. 25, a whole month latcr tnan their agent stated positively they could be had. The matter will be investigated at once.
