mer. l.icklenburgr farmers took the
first definite step Saturday for the for
mation of the "Meoklenburg Dairy and
Ice Cream Company. It will be a char,
tered concern with a capital stok of
$100,000 authorized and the greater part
of It paid in as the proposition involves
th immediate establishment of a suf
ficiently large creamery, here to meet
present demands and possible future
requirements.
Among the leading stockholders are
, such Hty-farmers as E. T. Cansler, Ru
fus Johnston, J. A. Yarborough, Dr.
A. M. Whisnant. T. M. Shelton and
"leading younsr men of the county who

STOCK BEING TAKEN.
Jor some weeks agitation has been
rife for such an establishment but lead
ership in the movement was somewhat
ctsfcotie. Saturday. however, active
steps were taken, copies of the charter
were available and stock subscriptions
were taken. At the exposition grounds
during the afternoon where many of
the more prominent and wealthy plant
ers of Mecklenhuro- were rrathprri t.
Dr. Poes address, the canvassers
foff stock were able to get many sub
scriptions as a starter and they "stated
later in the day that the enterprise
would become a reality in view of the
success of their efforts Saturday. When
th4 farmers have subscribed what the
promoters think they will be able to
take in the way of stock, effort will be
made to supplement this amount by
subscriptions from business and finan
cial men of the city to the end that am
ple capital may be available.
HANDLE BY-PRODUCTS.
It is in the mind of the promoters to
establish a creamery that will take
care of the milk and milk products'
demand in Charlotte and its immediate
territory. Just what capacitv it will
have remains to be determined. In acl-
Svi handling sweet milk for de-
,TJ, nuthe ,homes of Charlotte con
Rumen, the plan is to furrish -'.1 the
well as better. It is pointed out iliat
SfoTO,nty f the but '-'r consumed in

Jr - e main reasons for this, it is
stated, is that a majority of the milk
producers. of the county prefer to han
dle their sweet milk in native fashion
rather than convert it into by-products.

STABILIZE MARKET.
One of the outstanding virtues of the
local creamery, one of the leading pro
moters, stated Saturday, was that it
would tend to stabilize the dairy indus
try in Mecklenburg county, by provid
ing an orderly, uniform market, sum
mer and winter, for milk and its by
products. As the situation has been.
j he said, milk is scarce here in the win
ter and so abundant in the summer
that there is no market for it and this
condition of the milk market has caus
ed a number of producers to abandon
the enterprise entirely. So long as they
were unable to sell sweet milk in the
summer, when it could be more cheap
ly produced as against winter milk
when cows have to be fed during all
of the cold months, they were not in
position to realize on their investment
and have gone out of this business. It
is figured that by a stabilization of the
