The auditing committee simply grouped the items a little different 

 from what I did in this report and made a little different charges. Totals 

 are all the same. They called some thiugs expense for the one cent a tub 

 that we might say was on the books. There is no difference in the totals 

 ait all, only what we might consider belong'ing to the Patrons' Handbook 

 and they consider belongs to some other department. 



In this no account is taken of the money which is out in the shape of 

 books in the hands of butter-makers, for the reason we cannot account 

 for the number sold. Since the first of November, however, after this 

 account had been made up, we have received $399.06 and paid out $147.84, 

 which leaves our balance today in the treasury something like $723. We 

 have gained that much since the first of November.
