That Familiar “ Barn Score” 
That article in a renent B. N.-Y. 
about the barn score sounds very familiar. 
I have been all through the barn score 
bu.siness and regard it as a rank hum¬ 
bug. .Still there has been developed a 
fecliug among con.sumers that to insure 
safety barns must be Inspected and 
scored. That being the case, scoring is 
what we mn.st have until education can 
clear away the nuisance, for nuisance it 
is at present. J’^coring ought to be put 
on some rational basis, and we are told 
that the city director of foods in New 
York has come to the conclusion that a 
better card can be arranged. I hope so. 
However that may be, it is dairy far¬ 
mers who ought to do the scoring. They 
ought to do it at milking time too, and 
in some oases should give some advice 
about handling the job of milking. This 
business ought to he under the charge of 
the Dairymen’s League. Farmers should 
inspect the production of milk and gnar- 
antoe the product. It can he done by co¬ 
operation among fanners, although it is 
no easy job. The League has a lot of 
problems on its hands, it is true, and 
some of these are exceedingl.v important 
and need quick attention. It might not 
be easy to take on this extra work right 
now, but this slnmld be the aim, and not 
too long delayed. It is my belief that 
farmers not only ought to inspect, but 
should weigh and test. Possibly the 
State Department of Agriculture might 
be the power to see that such work is 
properly done, but farmers, by coopera¬ 
tion, ought to do it. IT. n. L.

Potatoes are called weak, with only 
fair demand, but the quotation is up to 
,$.'kr>0 per bn, for choice, with the retail 
l)rice .$1.50 per peck. Onions are .$2.40 
l)er Texas crate, with small sets still .$20 
per bn. Beans are tinner at .$0 for red 
kidney and $12 for marrow. Farmers 
are finding it hard to p.et seed, as they 
mostl.v have none. Cabbage is down to 
.$0 and .$6.50 per 100 lbs., and cucumbers 
run from 70c to $1.10 per dozen. Asj 
paragns is very plenty at $1 and $2.25 
per dozen bunches, home-grown, and 
.$2.50 and $.2.50 for Jersey, Wax beans 
are $2 and $.3 per hamper; new beet.s,

bunches; radishes, 20e per dozen hunches. 
The apjile supply is good, but in-ices 
drop as the season advances, quotations 
not being above $5.75 per bbl. for fancy 
and .$2.75 and $2.25 for common. The 
supply of Western apiiles in small meas¬ 
ures is gtiod. Prices of such seldom vary 
much, being 10c and 1.5c for a measure 
holding loss than a dozen. Southern fruit 
remains plenty and low, at .$2.75 and $2 
for oranges, per box; $2 and $2.75 for 
lemons, .$2.50 and $5 for grapefruit, and 
$1.20 per 100 for limes. I'ineapples con¬ 
tinue an over-supply at $2.7.5 and $2.25 
for all sizes per box and retailing at 5c 
and 10c for moderate sizes. Strawberries 
are temporarily scarce, but prices remain 
at $2.75 and $2 per 24-quart box, retail¬ 
ing at 12e and 15e per quart. The qual¬ 
ity is good. Home strawberries will not 
be blossomed for some time. 
Butter is firm at 40c for best creamery, 
27c and 38e for best dairy. 23c and 26e 
for all ci’ocks and 29e and 20e for low 
grade. Lack of pasturage keeps prices 
up. Cheese remains at 2Sc for best do¬ 
mestic, old, with some new arriving, at 
24o and 27e. Eggs, finn, at 28e for white 
hennery; with 26e for .storage. Duck 
eggs are 36e and 38c, and goose eggs, 50c 
and 60c. 
Little dressed poultiT, fresh killed, is 
offered or asked for, but a full line of 
frozen is offered at .22c and .24c for heavy 
capon. 25c and 27c for ducks, and 19e 
and 20e for geese. The live-poultry mar¬ 
ket is not strong, but prices are only 
about a cent lower than for frozen.

Milk is two or three thousand pounds short 
of last Spring here at our crcnniery, and there 
are several reasons for it. Feed is so higli 
farmers are not feeding mneh grain; hay is the 
eheapest feed in the eountry; it has sold hero 
from S.’) to .$10 per ton. and farmers are carry¬ 
ing their stock through on hay alone. Cows 
are very high in price; good grade cows, fresh 
or near-by springers, sell from .$100 to $150 each. 
Many farmers will be short of cows rather 
than pay the price to keep a full dairy. Some 
are selling at these high prices and will run 
short till they can raise more. Pastures are 
growing poorer every year, and are starting 
very i)oorly. This year it is very cold and back¬ 
ward, nothing planted in the ground here yet, 
so the supply of milk will certainly be shorter 
than last season in this locality. F. D. II.

Sharpies is the only separator that skims absolutely clean at 
all speeds. All other separators lose considerable cream when 
turned below speed—admitted by leading experiment stations 
and all separator manufacturers. Average loss from this cause 
is 10 lbs. of butter per cow per year, or 80,000,000 lbs. in the 
United States alone! Sharpies would save it all!—due to the 
wonderful Suction-feed, which automatically regulates the 
milk-feed so as to insure clean skimming whether you turn 
fast or slow. 
Sharpies is an absolute necessity now —when the world is 
clamoring for “more fat.” It is the only separator that gets all 
the butter-fat out of the milk. Prevent waste by getting a 
Sharpies—and get it now, while you can. Ask nearest 
Sharpies dealer to explain it.
