 steady increase from

 month of March. 

 1934, to 135,750.»> 

 pounds received dur- 

 ing the month of 

 .August last year. 

 .Since that time total 

 receipts have de- 

 clined largely as a 

 result of the drouth 

 and shortage of 

 feed. This decline in butterfat produc- 

 tion has been almost nation-wide and is 

 accountable for the substantial increase 

 in butterfat prices during winter months. 

 The total volume of cream for the 

 year, reports Manager .Shaw was 1,152,- 

 290.7 pounds and the total butter made 

 was 1,399,781 pounds. 



Butter production by the Producers

These new rates continue to be sub- 

 stantially lower than can be had in other 

 state-wide companies and great oppor- 

 tunities are offered to Farm Bureau 

 members to further reduce the cost of 

 insurance by cutting down the number 

 of accidents and losses. The present 

 low rates of the Co-npany ar • due pri- 

 marily to the fact that Kami Bureau

 leads all other co-operative creamerie.- 

 in the state in butter production. Forty- 

 four carloads of the total manufactured 

 was sold in tubs and approximately 2t> 

 carloads were sold as print butter under 

 the trade name "Prairie Farms." 



Three delivery trucks operated by ex- 

 perienced salesmen are in u.»e daily de- 

 livering butter to retailers in Peoria 

 and the surrounding towns. A new high 

 was reached in January, 19.55. when 61,- 

 712 pounds of Prairie Farms butter were 

 sold. Since May. lit.'!."?, the company did 

 a gross business of $623,505.51. 



"The inauguration of the government 

 butter grading program was the out- 

 standing project of the last year," said 

 Mr. Shaw. "Mr. Tuttle. the federal but-

 for Illinois Producers Creameries, pre-

 Creameries on the grades of cream re-

"In January Peoria was in second place 

 on quality among the four cooperative 

 creameries with an average grade in 

 January of approximately 91." 



Total dividends have been declared to 

 members since May 1, ig.'JS of $13,923.42.

C. A Hughes Serves 19 



Years As Farm Adviser 



C. \. Hughes of Monroe county, presi- 

 dent of the Illinois Association of Farm 

 .\dvisers. recently completed his 19th 

 year as a county agricultural agent. 



Mr. Hughes graduated from the Uni- 

 versity of Illinois. College of Agricul- 

 ture, in 1914 about 

 the time a number 

 of other farm ad- 

 visers were getting 

 out, such as E. C. 

 S e c o r, Randolph 

 county; J. H. Check- 

 ley, formerly ad- 

 viser in Logan coun- 

 ty: H. A. deWerff. 

 Woodford county; 

 Otis Kercher, Ver- 

 milion county; W. 

 A. Cope, Clinton 

 county; Chas. Tarble, Cumberland coun- 

 ty; H. C. Gilkerson. Lake county; Alden 

 Snyder, Montgomery county; J. F. 

 Blackburn, Marion county; and E. H. 

 Walworth, Warren county. 



Hughes took his first job as county 

 agricultural agent in Monroe county. 

 West Virginia, a hilly country in the 

 .Appalachian range. In Monroe county 

 he organized a Farm Bureau baseball 

 team, perhaps the first one of its kind 

 in the United States. He later wen I 

 to Jefferson county. West Virginia, in 

 the Shenandoah valley, and still later 

 to Noxubee county, Mississippi, in the 

 cotton belt. He began work as farm 

 adviser in Menard county, Illinois, 

 where he served seven years before go- 

 ing t(i his present post in Monroe coun- 

 ty, eight years ago. 



Menard county, according to Mr. 

 Hughes, consigned the first load of live- 

 stock to the St. Louis Producers from 

 Illinois, while he was farm adviser 

 there. The load was shipped from 

 Petersburg. He also organized the first 

 wheat control association under the ad- 

 justment program in Illinois in Monroe 

 county where 93 per cent of the wheat 

 growers signed contracts. 



Mr. Hughes has shown marked talent 

 in developing an interesting and read- 

 able Farm Bureau mimeographed news 

 letter which he has found very useful in 

 his educational and promotional service 

 program in Monroe county. The "Ham- 

 mer," the Monroe county official paper, 

 is a recognized institution in Monroe 

 county for bringing Farm Bureau serv- 

 ice and news to every member.

 terest and paying $5,130.20 of dividends 

 to members, and during the same time

 prices for everyone in the Peoria terri-
