Butter depot operator jailed in Pueblo fraud case
C H Strong opened a butter milk and poultry sales scheme in Pueblo but had no office or store and used front mail delivery. He printed postal card quotations for Elite Egg & Milk Depot and attempted recalls from Kansas and Nebraska, prompting post office and police to arrest him. The scheme involved sending shipments to local dealers and may have mirrored a prior Kansas City operation. He faces trial soon and has remained silent.
