Cremeries and Concrete Tombstones Grow in Industry

The Department of Agriculture reviewed 27 inquiries into creameries across the country finding that most failures stemmed from too few cows, while poor organization and high costs plagued cooperative creameries. Building costs range from 800 to 1400 dollars for a 28 by 48 foot building. A 15-horsepower boiler and 10-horsepower engine with a 600 pound butter capacity costs about 1200 dollars, plus 609 to 1000 dollars for refrigeration equipment. The department offers organizational plans and machinery layouts on request. Separately, concrete tombstones are becoming a rising industry noted for economy and artistic potential. Concrete allows integrated decorative features and cost-effective reproduction of marble or granite designs.
