It seemed to be the opinion of a large 
majority of the stockholders present that 
an investigation and study should be 
made by experts upon the following eight 
topics to report to a later meeting as to 
the advisability of continuing the opera¬ 
tions of the company, and manufacturing 
carbide at Plattsburgh. The questions 
to be investigated by M. H. Avran & Co., 
Inc. of New York City. The topics being 
as follows, and the investigators’ names 
who are to report on each of the eight 
topics are as follows: 
1. Hydraulic Water Power Development, Prof 
C. P. Bliss; 2. Electrical Power Development, 
Mr. R. E. Denike; S. Chemistry of Calcium 
Carbide Production, Prof. H. J Nasson; J+. 
Manufacturing of Calcium Carbide, Dr. N. M. 
Hopkins; 5. Raw materials, and source of supply, 
Mr. K. Thomas and Mr, J. E. Kelly; 6. Market, 
Mr. R. C. Schroth; 7. Re-organization and 
Management Plan, Mr. M. H. Avram; 8. 
Financial Plan, Mr. J. E. Sawhil. 
The stockholders thereupon adjourned 
until the last Saturday of November at 
10 A. M. to the Court House in the 
City of Plattsburgh, at which time the 
reports of the various experts will be 
made and final action can be taken as to 
whether it will be advisable to continue 
to operate the company, or whether the 
property will be sold and the affairs of 
the company closed out. 
Farmer-owned Milk Plants 
(Continued from page £35) 
railroad cars by noon, consigned to 
regular dealers in New York City, who 
take it from the railroad platform when 
it arrives there, about midnight, direct 
to the storekeeper who sells it. The 
bulk of this milk is delivered at the 
stores between three and six o’clock in 
the morning. Many of these stores are 
located in densely-settled parts of the 
city. They open about 5:00 o’clock. 
The housewife buys two or three quarts 
of milk for breakfast, at the same time 
she gets her daily supply of groceries. 
The bulk of this milk is consumed by 
seven or eight o’clock, or within twenty- 
four hours of its delivery to the creamery. 
There is no large country or city over¬ 
head. There is no step in this process of 
distribution which it is possible to 
eliminate. It is the cheapest, quickest, 
possible way of getting this milk from the 
producer to the consumer. Only 40 to 
50 per cent, of the ultimate cost to the 
housewife is absorbed by creamery 
charges, freight, the city dealer anti the 
storekeeper. The farmer gets the rest. 
This loose milk is the freshest milk on 
sale in New York City. It complies 
with the same Board of Health require¬ 
ments as Grade B bottled milk; is twenty- 
four hours fresher and costs four cents a 
quart less. The abundant supply of this 
high quality milk has done much to keep 
down the sickness and death rate in the 
congested parts of the city where most 
of it is sold. 
Dairymen may well be proud of the 
business structures they have reared 
around the farmer-owned milk company. 
These companies insure the fanner a 
permanent outlet for the products of his 
labor. They give him the opportunity to 
exercise the business ability needed to 
bring him the fair value of his goods in 
the markets where sold. They assure 
the consumer a continuous supply of the 
best quality milk from a source which 
seeks to market it by the most direct 
method at a price which will stimulate 
consumption to the greatest possible 
degree.
