Buttermilk House tale shows a trust busted by a rich young man
A wealthy young man in New York visits the Mountain House where a price hike triggers a scheme with a widow and her daughter to beat a local buttermilk trust. The widow and daughter, aided by the man, acquire cows and equipment, sign five year contracts to supply buttermilk, and confront landlord Stebbins, leading to the overthrow of his one man trust. The sign changes to The Buttermilk House, and guests continue enjoying buttermilk under doctor’s orders.
