SALT SPRING BUTTER

From ‘a comparatively small :

start,” Salt Spring . Island:
diarymen are now realizing a
very handsome return from. the
butter market. Last year, the Salt
Spring... Island
Association cleaned. up. : $55,000
from ‘their butter’ sales. The
butter is sold almost exclusively
in the Victoria market and
realizes a favorable price in open
competition with the product of
provincial. and foreign dairies.

o SIDNEY MILL
. FIRE BRIGADE
Owing to the long dry spell and
warm weather, and considering
the number of saw. mills that
have been burnt down. the
management of the Sidney Mills
thought. it. advisable for. the
protection of ‘the sawmill and -
town -to have a° fire brigade to’
cope with any emergencies that
-might arise. A volunteer fire
brigade has been organized with
a chief. and twenty-four captains
to:-man the fire fighting
. apparatus at the saw mill.
