As We See It
As we see it this week the following articles from our Charlo correspondent are just about as good as we have seen for some time. One can see that the farmers of the Charlo district are forging ahead in the dairy industry, and are not discouraged by the low price of butter fat, which one may be sure is only temporary.
Mr. T. W. Issajeff, general agent for the Independent Silo Company of St. Paul, was a Charlo visitor Thursday. Mr. Issajeff spent some time with A. J. Fryberger, who is the local representative of the company. Several different kinds of silos are manufactured by the company, but the Triple-wall Silo seems to strike the fancy of the local farmers most. Those who purchased silos are as follows:
A. L. Fryberger and Son, Anton Maanum.
James Hendrickson,
Henry Hendrickson, Alfred Hendrickson.
All purchased Triple-wall Silos and will erect them about March. Several other leading farmers are contemplating the purchase of silos at this time, in order to have them shipped in at the same time as the others.
The erection of silos is one of the most outstanding achievements of our farmers, for a long time and it seems a lot to this community.
It indicates that our farmers are in the dairy business to stay and intend to make the old cow pay.
There never was a doubt about silage as feed and the balanced ration is what makes them come to time. Again there is nothing that looks better on a farm than a silo, and it indicates that the farmer is putting some business methods behind his operations that are bound to win out in the long run.
"More Power to You Boys," we are sure with you and hope you will be able to place one on every farm.
The farmers have been doing a lot of kicking the past week about the low price of butter fat. This indeed is food for thought as all the articles we have been able to read, that have been prepared by some of the leading economists of the country, indicates that Oleomargarine is one of the causes and that the farmers themselves are among the largest users of substitutes. The higher the price of butter fat goes, the more Oleo is used by the local farmers. Therefore, it looks like the farmer has a part of the remedy in his hands.
