A Satisfactory Run Was Made Tuesday Morning and the Plant Accepted. The Payette creamery is now in full blast. The formal opening took place Tuesday morning, at which time a number of the stockholders and other citizens who feel an interest in the enterprise, among whom were not a few ladies, were shown through the building and everything was fully explained by Mr. Sweet, from the turning of the milk into the weighing tank all the way through the receiving tank, the separator, the cream ripening tanks, the church, the butter worker and so on to the refrigerator. At 9 o’clock the machinery was started and everything worked with the utmost accuracy and precision. Messrs. Chase, Toole and Coxe, executive committee of the shareholders, were taking careful observation, and, at the conclusion of the test run, the plant was accepted and a vote of thanks tendered Mr. R. W. Sweet for the careful and conscientious manner in which he had performed his work. We believe that every shareholder is satisfied and feels like recommending Mr. Sweet to the people of any community who may think about securing a creamery. Of the prizes given by Mr. Sweet to patrons furnishing milk, August Jacobsen secured the first, S. L. Sparks the second, and Anton Diederichsen and Jacob Stroup third and fourth. After today Payette merchants will be able to supply their customers with creamery butter of home manufacture, and we hope ere long to see the Payette creamery sending out large quantities of its product to all sections of the country.
