LEAVE JULY 24 The cheese factory recently in stalled at Penrose was formally op ened for business Monday morninp: by some very intcrestinir and instruc tive talks by Mr. Lawrneco, County Atrent, Mr. Reed, State Dairy Dem onstrator and Mr. Noland, State Cheese Expert. The openinjr was attended by a lar^e crowd from all over the com munity and much interest v.'as shown in the new industry. Mr. Reed, in his talk pointed out the advantajrcs of the cheese industry in Western North Carolina over many other parts of the country. He said that if the people expected to buy cotton seed meal and hulls to feed their cov.'s, they had just as well .trlve np the idea of makinjr cheese a pay- in^r proposition. He stated that corn, clover, soy beans and other ".rains were the thinjr to feed cows and that there was plenty of that all over the valley. In speakinjr of the cheese industry as a payin.ir proposition Mr. Reed said that in many sections where these factories had been installed the farmers were now ridin.i? about in automobiles where they were hardly able to make a living: before. This checse industry will enable the farmers to reali::e some ready cash while tendin,tr their crons.
