Ail^can Agriculturist, January 27,1923 
League Announces Milk 
Prices for February 
T he Dairymen’s League Cooperative 
Association, Inc., has voted the fol¬ 
lowing prices for the month of Febru¬ 
ary, on the basic butter-fat test of 3 
per cent, in the 201-210-mile freight 
zone, from New York City: 
Class 1, for fluid consumption, $2.90. 
Class 2, for cream or ice-cream, $2.50. 
Class 3-A milk used chiefly in the 
manufacture of evaporated condensed, 
and powd red milk—a differential has 
been voted at 59 cents per lOp above 
the price paid for milk going into the 
manufacture of butter (in Class 4). 
For Class 3-B milk used chiefly in the 
manufacture of hard cheese a 40-cent 
differential was voted. 
Class 4 milk used chiefly in the man¬ 
ufacture of butter and American cheese 
was voted to be determined by New 
York market quotations of butter and 
cheese respectively. 
January prices were reduced to $2.90 
for class 1 and $2.50 for class 2, begin¬ 
ning January 16, due to seasonal in¬ 
crease and competitive conditions in 
the New York market. It is looked 
upon as the opening of another milk- 
price war. _ 
Urge Extension of T B Work 
{Continued from page 66) 
pointed out that the period of depres¬ 
sion had about ended and that the pros¬ 
pects were encouraging. 
H. J. Henry, Bureau of Animal In¬ 
dustry, Department of Farms and Mar¬ 
kets, gave an excellent review of the , 
growth of the accredited herd plan in 
New York' State. According to Mr. 
Henry, there are at present 12,000 herds, 
comprising 315,000 cows under State 
and Federal Supervision. 
Henry Morgenthau, Jr., spoke on 
the present delay in compensating the 
farmer for his condemned cattle under 
the accredited herd plan. Mr. Mor- . 
genthau stated . that as it is now, 
the breeder often has to wait from six 
to eighteen months before the State 
reimburses him, and that of the two 
million cattle in New York, only 315,- 
000 are under Federal Supervision. 
Appropriation by the State of sufficient 
money to pay the farmer within 30 
days after the cattle were slaughtered, 
would, according to the speaker, give 
such an impetus to the campaign to 
eradicate tuberculosis, that within five 
years the whole State of New York 
would have adopted the “area plan, 
with every cow in the State under Fed¬ 
eral and State Supervision. 
Moreover, Mr. Morgenthau said that 
he could prophesy, if this occurred, that 
the State would acquire such a reputa¬ 
tion for healthy cattle, that the value 
of the pure breds would increase over 
50 per cent. He also stated that this 
was a matter which interested not only 
the farmer, but also the cities, as every 
child in the State of New York should 
be entitled to receive milk from tubercu¬ 
losis-free cattle. In closing, Mr. Mor- • 
genthau urged that the association go 
on record as requesting the administra¬ 
tion to appropriate sufficient funds not 
only to pay up back debts, but also to 
carry on for at least six months in 1923. 
Senator William Byrne of Albany 
County wound up the program by urg¬ 
ing the farmers to make known their 
demands and seek to get what is right¬ 
fully theirs. 
On the following day, January 17, a 
sale was held at which 73 head brought 
an average of $175 a head. 
In the evening, the Onondaga Hol¬ 
stein Club gave a smoker to the State 
Association. At this meeting, the fol¬ 
lowing very important resolutions were 
recommended by the pure-bred breeders 
and passed by the association. 
Whereas, the eradication of tubercu¬ 
losis is of vital importance to the pure¬ 
bred cattle industry. 
Whereas, the work of eradication 
has been seriously handicapped by lack 
of sufficient State and Federal funds; 
Therefore, be it resolved that we 
urge the legislature to make an emer¬ 
gency appropriation sufficient to pay all 
indemnities now due and that a suffi¬ 
cient amount also be appropriated to 
pay indemnities to July 1, 1923, and be 
it further resolved, that we endorse and 
comnfiend the activities of the Bureau 
of Animal Industry in work of tubercu¬ 
losis eradication and that the same be.
