PENROSE FIG1ITS OLEO
Defends Farming and Dairy Inter
ests Against Bogus Butter Men.
HE GIVES FACTS AND FIGURES
A Strong Argument In Favor of Pro
tection For Those Who Have Suf
fered From the Operations of the
Oleomargarine Trust.
II he .ladelphta, April 19. Senator Pen
5?,c'? has been widely complimented
upon bis speech delivered in the United
States senate In favor of the bill In
tended to protect the farmer of the
United States from the oleomargarine
trust.
Senator Penrose prefaced his speech
by declaring that no state In the union
was more interested in the proposed
legislation than Pennsylvania.
PENNSYLVANIA'S INTERESTS.
"The returns of the census of June
1. 1900." he said, "show that the live
stock Industry of Pennsylvania has a
value of $109,590,426. Of this the dairy
Industry, counting simply cows kept
for milk of the age of 2 years and
over, rrprwents a sum of $29,141,561,
and the value of neat cattle, outside of
cows kept for milk, amounts to $13,
921,630. making a total for cows and
neat cattle In Pennsylvania of $43,063,
191. The value of the production of
these animals per year has not yet been
computed by the census department,
but by comparing the ntTiber of dairy
rows as given by the census of 1S90,
with tbe present cenmis there has been
a gain of 16,519 head, an increase of
1.7 per cent. The amount of butter
manufactured from these animals
amounts to about 90,000,000 pounds per
year, and the amount of milk produced
to about 440,000,000 gallons. There are
at present in Pennsylvania 856 cream
eries manufacturing butter. In the
plant of each of these there la Invest
ed an average of $3,000, which would
represent $2,568,000 capital.
"The income to the people of my
state in a single year from butter alone
amounts to between sixteen and eigh
teen million dollars, and the milk pro
duct, estimated at 8 cents per gallon,
represents about $35,000,000 additional.
"This immense sum of money is a
new product each year, adding this
much to the actual wealth of the state
annually, and has the advantage of be
ing distributed throughout all of the
farm homes of the commonwealth, go
ing to the support of more than 1,000,
000 people who are engaged In agricul
ture, enabling them to maintain them
selves In comparative comfort.
"Oleomargarine can be manufactured
a from 7 to 9 cents per pound, de
pending upon the quality and fluctua
tions In the price of the materials that
compose it. With tbe present govern
ment tax of 2 cents added, the total
cost of the manufacture Is from 10 to
11 cents per pound.
"This makes It possible for the oleo
margarine manufacturer to place his
product upon the market at a price be
low the cost price of butter. The
Inevitable consequence will be to drive
out the butter-making Industry."
FAVORED THE TAX.
senator Penrose said the tax of II
iff ' 1

that were made to sell at nine
dollars.
SUNBURY, PA, I
cents per pound would raise the cost
price of oleomargarine to from 17 to
19 cents a pound, which Is about the
cost of manufacturing a good article of
butter. The effect would bo to protect
the fanner. Manufacturers have been
protected for many years and the far
mer should now be protected.
There Is another reason why oleo
margarine should be taxed. Instead
of oleo being marked and sold as such
it Is in many cases colored In imitation
of butter and sold as butter. This is a
fraud uprn the public as well as a
menace to a very important branch of
the agricultural industry. -
"Tho imposition ef a 10 cent tax, to
be collected before the article is per
mitted to be exposed for sale," said
Senator Penrose, "will remove la a
great degree the temptation to commit
this fradd,' and will be to that extent
in the interest of public morals."
"We are not ready to substitute the
oleomargarine factory for the butter
Industry In the state of Pennsylvania.
"We are not willing that the profits
of our domestic animals shall be taken
away from their legitimate sources
and given to a select syndicate of capi
talists, in order that they may become
inordinately rich.
"The commissioner of Internal reve
nue reports for the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1S99, that there were, In
round numbers, 91,000,000 pounds o
oleo manufactured In the United
States, of which eleven and one-hal:
million pounds were sold in Pennsyl
vania. In the manufacture of this Ira
mense amount only 1.72 per cent of
the material used was butter.
"Against this imposition the honest
farmer and dairyman should be pro
tected. ,
"It may be well to remember that
the farmers of the country are among
our very best citizens, and there Is nr
class that Is more deserving of the
considerate care of our lawmaking
bodies.
"The farmers have always favored
government protection where protec
tion Is needed, and now that thej
need protection themselveB it is onl
just that it should be given them. In
the state of Pennsylvania the local
granges number about 500, with a
membership of fully 65,000, principally
heads of families. The farmers oi
Pennsylvania are among the most In
telligent and conservative of all thi
many elements of our population, and
In a general way they may be said tc
constitute the best bulwark of our Id
stltutions."
