Texas Laws Do Not Permit Farm Co-Ops Hereford Creamery
Bendickson, manager of a planned Hereford dairy creamery, says Texas law lacks a farmers cooperative form, so the venture will operate as a stock company. The plant, in a new 44 by 72 foot building, will feature two 500 gallon vats a 500 gallon churn a refrigeration plant and cold storage for a carload of butter with room to expand as patronage grows. Investors expect an $18 000 investment and 3000 Jersey cows in the territory. Land in the Texas panhandle adds farming opportunities with prices from 20 to 50 dollars an acre.
