Wholesale  Prices  at  New  York, 
Week  ending  Feb.  25,  1916. 
The  commercial  values  of  farm  pro¬ 
ducts  are  what  they  sell  for — not  neces¬ 
sarily  their  .jod  value  or  what,  some  one 
thinks  or  wishes  they  were  worth.  Hence 
representative  sales  rather  than  opinions, 
even  though  unbiased,  are  the  correct 
basis  for  quotations.  Except  in  cases 
where  quality  is  standardized  by  scoring, 
the  top  grade  refers  to  the  best  on  sale 
at  the  time.  The  best  sheep,  lambs,  ap¬ 
ples,  pears,  etc.,  one  week  may  be  much 
better  or  poorer  than  the  next.

Feb.  19.  This  is  a  poor  farming  sec¬ 
tion,  very  little  farming  done  outside  of 
keeping  a  few  cows.  The  creamery  paid 
44c  a  pound  for  butterfut  during  Jan¬ 
uary  and  46c  during  December,  keeping 
the  skim-milk  which  we  can  buy  back 
for  20c  a  can.  Gluten  feed  is  selling  for 
81.75  per  100  lbs.;  corn  meal  $1.65;  oats 
$2;  bran  $1.30 ;  standard  middlings 
$1.35.  Local  butcher  pays  10c  for  pork. 
The  price  of  cuttle  varies  quite  a  little 
with  fresh  cows  averaging  about  $55  or 
SCO  for  fair  ones.  p.  J.  T.

Feb.  15.  The  past  two  weeks  have

ing  section ;  most  of  the  milk  being 
shipped  to  Rochester  or  sold  in  Oswego.

Feb.  19.  The  weather  during  February 
has  been  real  snug  Potter  County  ’Win¬ 
ter  ;  as  a  result  but  few  cars  of  potatoes 
have  been  sent  out.  The  price  for  these 
was  $1  at  which  price  raisers  are  all 
holding  their  remaining  crop.  liny  $12 
to  $1 1.  mostly  clover  mixed,  very  few 
cars  have  been  shipped  to  date,  due  no 
doubt  to  embargo  at  terminals.  The  bulk 
of  the  oats  raised  are  fed  locally,  with 
additional  western  oats  shipped  in  to  help 
out;  these  sell  at  the  mills  for  60c.  local 
oats  selling  for  50c.  Some  first-class 
apples  are  raised  in  the  county,  thanks 
to  the  demonstrations  in  orchard  work 
and  insect  control  by  tile  men  from  the 
Department  of  Agriculture.  Apples  from 
these  orchards  selling  readily  for  from 
$1  to  $1.50  per  lm,  Butter  brings  from 
30  to  35c;  egns  2  to;  pork  11c;  dressed 
poultry  20  to  22c.  The  increased  prices 
on  fertilizers  have  resulted  in  many  of  the 
farmers  buying  more  lime  this  Winter 
Ilian  over  before.  The  Cooperative  Cow 
Testing  Association  is  resulting  in  more 
economical  feeding,  the  weeding  out  of 
“boarder”  cows,  and  more  interest  in  pay¬ 
ing  strains  of  thoroughbred  stock.  Milk 
this  month  at  the  condenseries  $1.75  per 
hundred.
