Three Illinois Producers creameries, 

 Bloomington, Mt. Sterling and Olney, 

 were hosts to 48 young men and women 

 from nine counties in July. On the tour, 

 sponsored by the lAA and county Farm 

 Bureaus, young folks had an opportunity 

 to learn more about modern cream and 

 egg marketing methods used by coopera- 

 tives in the state. 



On the three tours went Frank Goug- 

 ler, lAA director of produce marketing, 

 to point out methods required to produce 

 fine butter and quality eggs. 



Said he, "Illinois is gaining a reputa- 

 tion as a producer of quality butter and 

 cggs- Wc invited you to see how it is 

 possible to improve quality even more."
