Powell, of Towanda, Pa., in ,whoie family she was tenderly reared un til her marriage to Mr. Baker twenty-four years ago. Since that time her residence, has been in this county, and nearly ail of this-peri!xl she has been a resident of Bath. She united with the Presbyteriau Church here in Is6o, under the ministry of Rey. W. E. Jones, 4d her character has been such as to corittnend the faith that then professed. ,To her natural energy and enterprise and Persistepcy she added many of the fruits of the spirit, and ih he home-life her Christian love land Zeal and trust were continually manifest. Her husbind and two sons have lost from their presence one whose quiet and' un ceasing pOwer for good was to them a force of which they were alwaystonscious, but which had in it nothing repulsive. The light which rays out from such a life reaches farther tq,exinvey more of its ge nial warmth to other lives than we are *apt to be awar• of.

Creameries. • TUE RISE AND PROORESS OF ASSOCI ATED DAIRYING-MOW . THE CREAM . ERIE'S: ALLE , IWN IN TUTS STATE, - AND THEIR COST. in view of the fact that many of the farmers of this county are dis cussing the building of creameries to manntneture the product of their own cows into butter and cheese, the fol lowing article. on the Pennsylvania creameries, from the Philadelphid Press, will be read with interest. • Southeastern Pennsylvania low from time immemorial been &dairy region. Much good butter was made in all the counties adj.-4mnt to Phila delphia before the timber was remov ed from the now celebrat d dairy districts of Central New,Yurk. Phil adelphia butter was known and re cognized as the standard of excellence for that article before Elgin or Okosh, were heard of. The so called Phila delphia print butter is made in -all the counties contiguous to the city. The butter made in this territory bas always found a ready market.in our own great city, and ) in the cities of -Baltimore and Washington to the southward of us. The•se-. markets satisfied the views of our dairy peo ple, and they made and 'sold their butt, r with no thought of what might be 'made of the skimmed milk. Some of" our grandmothers knew how to make cheese, bukamong the women of the period in this part of the, couptrreheese. Making is a lost art. It was never an important" pro duet-ofour local dekiries.'lt little was made for home use, abut hardly-any to sell.; the amount was, at least, quite insignificant. There was, per imps, not enough made in' a whole year to load a single freight car. qur dear gfuniimothers would have con-. aidered themselves scandalized if they had been .asked to make skimmed cheese. It would have been "difilcult ,to persikade them that it would be , tit to. eat when Made: Butter was. worth more in the market than tine cheese ; what there was in the skimm ed milk went to the calves, pOultry, and pigs. Own local market for butter :vas . ; equal to the expectations of;our dai-, 1 ry people, and was considered good enough. They. gave_ themselves no . ' trouble in seeking out new Methods , . ornewiprofitS from, the milk. Butt the dairymen .of Vermont and Cen-,1 tral New York bad not an 'equally{ -good and ready market praStically 1 trey : n at their doors for -the .butte th,.! made: They could not sue' d max:.' kit every week and sell thei biitter , at retail, as. we could: but were.obliß :: ed to ctinsign their goods to conimis- - sion merchants in Boston or New York and take what they &Mid get in the way, of returns... This was Wl= satisfactory, and the teeming_hraina or the Yankees were put to work to devise new ways-to reclize better - Ten. turns from their labor and their lands. It was apparent that dairying in' the old-fashioned V6sy was not sufficient ly remunerative., -Cheese factories 'were started first. in Vermont,' and . -soon. afterwards in . New. York. A market was ..formed at- home ; which absorbed the crop for seyeral years: But the but-put increased ,rapidly and a market was sought in' Europe, par ticuldrly in England. In` time' a greatkde . mand was created for Amer ican cheese,- and the have fur ,the past six' years have been some thing enormous. -Thie - trade was mainly built up by the dairymen of Central New York, whose_headquar- - teralare at -Utica' and 'Little Falls:' Th 4 were 'of course' assisted by th produce merchants of Boston and New York. Between them they have cultivated a European market for American dairy goods tbatvery few men would have forseen ten 'years ago. This grew naturally oat of the want of - success.in grain husbandry -in the Middle States caused by West ern competition. The result is a better market for dairy goods and.a More profitable .one than was open to our ftizmers twenty-five years ago for grain. Large quantities of both Cheese and .butter are ,shipped from our North Atlantic ports every week to ,our friends on 'the other side, and .at prices that. realize the-dairymen a good return for their goods. , The creamery, which is an estab lishment for manufacturing both but ter and cheese from the same milk is a logical out growth ' of the demand .for dairy 'goods -.and the :inventive -genius of the - people. The cheese :factory preceded our -butter factory. Each of these worked the milk either lor the cheese or butter, but neither of them for, both: The creamery is the natural corollary to 'the butter factory'. The ldrge - quantities of skimmed milk at the. bUtter factory could not be very, profitably utilized until_skitinned_ cheese suggested it 'self. The marketTlor this kind of cheese was too tempting a.thing-for -the frugal Yankee to neglect.. He put his inventive faculties to work that he mighttake advantage ,of and utilize the Market. The result is ail apparatus which utilises the milk to the best advan tage. and is called a ereamery,`and may be seen in some of its forms in almost any townshipin several cowl ties of our corner of the State. We cannot trace the development of the improvements Of a dairy apparatus here, for there Was' . not a creamery established• in the State until the lat 9st improvements were introduced iteo the system. True, one or two minor poinl4 for the application of the Invention Wive been patented by Suakto 9on4ty Pen • but 40 PIM SO . . important discovery his been made by our people. In Central New York one ca n . follow the development of the dairy apparatus step by step through, all their changes from the earliest and' rudest forms to the lat est- and most .efficient inventions. Such a study is instructive as welias interesting,because. there is 'scarcely another highly developed productive ' industry which is so new and can be so easily traced from its germ to its full develOpment. • The creamery movement was in troduced into bur country about a year and a half ago at Quakertown,- where a creamery wait at first looked upon as an innovation of doubtful , value, even if it should succeed. Many predicted its failure and did ' not believe associated dairying could be successfully introduced here. In novation as it was, it proved to be more, and, is now regarded .as a reve lation. There i tfre at this time twenty six creameries in operatiOn in Backs county, and probably as many Montgomery county. The - Writer cark_ not state what number may be other counties southeast of the Blue Mountains,but there are a good many of them and , nearly as many mere in oceSs of construction or immediate contemplation, the projectors await ing only for favorable weather to be. gin operations. • The majority of the concerns built or projected are of a capacity for 12,000 lbs of milk a day ; that is, they work up that much milk each day if run to their, full capabity. About 00 cans are required to fur: nish that. much ' daily all, the time. . Some of the creameries have a great- • er capacity and can handle 15,000 pounds tt milk daily The smaller one is the more popular so far, as it , costs less money and meets the' de 'mantis of :most neighborhoods. 10-• most districts within e ay and con venient reach of a creamery for the delivery of the milk not more thin' . six hundred cows are found. in some neighborhoods there are more' cows than in others, and ,where are numerous in a given districtlhe larger creameries :are established. The milk is deliiered at the cream ery eery morning, rain or shine,' drifts or no drifts, and two or three miles is as far' as the producer care s , to haul his , milk for delivery. . 7 ' T,o build and equip a 10,0J0-pounds creamery. with ice house. and nec essary fixtures, costs close to $6.000. A. 15;000 _ =pounds one, costs about $*4,0,10. The smaller one requires three men to run it when working fall The larger one requires an ad ditional ‘iind. Running expenses vary somewhat, owing to ability and skill exorcised' in the management. The daily, expenses attending the op. eration of a 10,1 01=pound establish ment is close to $lO, and the larger one cost two ,or three dollars more per day. These figures include all necessary expense of manufacture in coal; salt, packsg s. etc. .Each creamery requires .the work of two skilled workmen—one a butter maker, _the-other a cheese maker So far all the-e skilled operatives lime beet imported,from tlie:New York dairy districts-. Our hative dairymen, could manage the butterm-,king well enough, . the they know notping ; , botn, , eheesernakingovhieh the skilled eratives invest with a great deal of t mystery, and claim that it in a higfill. art., Whether it is so difficult an art_; as is represented or not,.our people will have to- learn it from the rudi ments upwt‘rd. Whether there is - sufficient inducement in. the wages paid to theqactosy men to make it an object for a capable plan to learn the business iemains to, be seen.
