Farm Organizations For Mullan-Gage Law 
T he New York Conference Board of 
Farm Organizations and the Cooper¬ 
ative Council, meeting in Syracuse May 
14, passed a resolution “emphatically 
and unanimously against the repeal of 
the Mullan-Gage Law”. Secretary E. 
R. Eastman of the Conference Board 
was instructed to send a telegram to 
the Governor asking him in the naihe 
of the farm organizations of the State 
to veto the bill repealing the Mullan- 
Gage Law. Farm leaders present rep¬ 
resented the Farm Bureau Federation, 
New York State Grange, State Horti¬ 
cultural Society, Federation of Home 
Bureaus, ai\d Dairymen’s League Co¬ 
operative Association, in the Confer¬ 
ence Board, and fourteen commercial 
organizations of State-wide scope in 
the Cooperative Council. 
There was not a single dissenting 
voice in the resolution condemning the 
repeal of the Mullan-Gage Law. 
A resolution was carried by the joint 
meeting endorsing all the work that 
had been done to date by the temporary 
committee in organizing plans for the 
National Dairy Show, to be held in 
October. 
Dr. Royal S. Copeland, United States 
Senator from New York, was then 
introduced and gave a very interesting 
address on the coal situation and the 
country’s transportation troubles. Dr. 
Copeland showed that while commis¬ 
sioner of the City of New York, he 
became particulary interested in the 
coal mining situation because of the 
effect of the shortage of the coal upon 
the health of the people of the City, 
and as a result he made a very thorough 
investigation of the whole coal and 
railroad problem. 
He said that these investigations 
showed that there was plenty of coal 
above the ground during the crisis of 
the past winter, but the trouble was 
the railroads were unable to transport 
it. During the railroad shopmen’s 
strike of a year ago, 218 railroads in 
the country made peace with their men. 
There were a few railroads which did 
not come to an agreement, and unfor¬ 
tunately these few were mostly the 
coal bearing roads, including the Le¬ 
high Valley, Delaware and Hudson, 
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western 
and Central Railroad of New Jersey. 
The speaker said that at one time 
70 per cent of the engines of the Le¬ 
high were out of order. He said also 
that the financial statement of the 
Lehigh Valley Railroad showed a loss, 
which was mostly caused by the strike, 
of $1,991,000, and that much of this 
loss—which in the end must be paid by 
the people—might have been avoided 
had this road settled its dispute with 
its men at the same time that the other 
218 roads of the country had. 
Dr. Copeland stated that the rail¬ 
roads were new trying to raise one and 
one-half billion dollars for new equip¬ 
ment. “These roads might much 
better,” said the speaker, “have fixed 
up some of their old stock first.” Sen¬ 
ator Copeland also stated that the coal 
situation for the coming winter was 
likely, to be very serious again. 
. At the close of Senator Copeland’s 
address, a motion was carried by the 
joint meeting extending him a rising 
vote of thanks. 
WESTERN NEW YORK NOTES 
ALVAH H. PULVER 
The Wayne County Farm Bureau, 
as announced by Manager Wagner, will 
soon start some reforesting work 
in the county in cooperation with the 
State Conservation Commission and 
the New Yoi’k State College of 
Agriculture. The Commission has co¬ 
operated to the extent of furnishing 
free to the county 10,000 forest trees, 
mostly of the white pine variety. 
These will be set out on the farms of 
Dwight F. Gaylord, North Rose; Mar¬ 
vin Shannon, Alton; George Scheer, 
Newark; E. E. Wood, Butler; and 
Charles Bridger, Alton. 
The Webster Cooperative Cold Stor¬ 
age has been completed to the extent 
that part of the capacity is available 
for use. The capacity of the plant is 
approximately 50,000 barrels and the 
storage provided so far has included 
about 20,000 barrels of apples and 35 
carloads of dried apples, cores and 
skins. More trackage will be necessary 
to handle the holdings economically. 
An ice plant with capacity of 15 tons 
of ice every 24 hours will be installed. 
The New York Central railroad has 
assured the company officials that ah 
the ice the plant can make over its 
needs will be taken by the railroad. 
Prospects are now very promising 
for a new cold storage plant at Geneva. 
Representatives from Hall, Penn Yan, 
Seneca Castle, Phelps and Waterloo, 
recently met in that city and took up 
the njatter of a cooperative plant. It 
is proposed to erect a plant of 60,000 
barrel capacity with a capitalization 
of $200,000, to consist of $75,000 com¬ 
mon stock and the balance of $125,000 
in bonds and preferred stock. 
The Salter Canning Company, of 
North Rose, which recently took over 
the plant of the Manchester Canning 
Company, is giving the plant a general 
overhauling under the management of 
J. F. Salter, and when the work is 
finished the 'plant will be modernized in 
every way. It is expected that the 
work will be finished in time for the 
berry and cherry season and when 
opened the plant will remain in opera¬ 
tion until well along into the winter 
months. Contracts have been closed 
with the growers for full capacity of 
the plant. 
Several hundred acres' of muck soil 
in the town of Hastings will be im¬ 
proved and placed under cultivation as 
a result of a movement started among 
the swamp owners of that section. The 
work will be furthered under the direc¬ 
tion of the Hastings Gardens Company. 
All the legal steps necessary to the 
work have been complied with and the 
promoters will begin work at once. 
NEW YORK COUNTY NOTES 
Saratoga Co.—Spring is cool and 
backward, with frost nearly every 
night. But few auctions and not many 
changes of farms this year. Farrners 
are getting along with their work with¬ 
out hired help. Veal calves bring 9 
cents a pound, dressed veal 14 cents a 
pound. Spring pigs are selling from 
$5 to $6 per pair, eggs 28 cents a 
dozen wholesale. Butter by the jar, 
is bringing 49 to 50 cents per pound. 
More attention is being given to butter 
production this spring than for several 
years past. Good cows are in demand 
at satisfactory prices. Potato buyers 
are combing the county around here 
with auto trucks offering good prices 
for potatoes of good quality. Some 
cattle are now on pasture, looking 
well.—E. S. R. 
Essex Co.—The great quantity of 
snow of the past winter disappeared 
quickly this spring and roads became 
settled more quickly than_ for several 
years. Farmers are planning on about 
the same acreage as last year. Some 
old ha'y on hand, brings $1^ to $15 a 
ton; potatoes $1.25 a bushel; eggs 30 
cents a dozen; dressed veal 14 cents. 
But little call for cows, or horses. 
Maple sugar is bringing 30 cents per 
pound. The maple crop was a small 
one, syrup $2 to $2.50 per gallon. — 
M. E. B. 
Steuben Co. — It has been a very cold 
backward spring and farm work is 
behind. Scarcely any planting has 
been done. General conditions are very 
discoui'aging to the farmer who cannot 
produce at the present prices that 
labor demands and little help at that 
price. The railroads and road con¬ 
tractors have recently increased their 
wages for labor which mqkes it harder 
than ever for the farmer to get help. 
Eggs are 22 cents, butter 42 cents, 
wheat $1.40, potatoes 70 cents, veal 
12 cents, maple syrup $2.50 a gallon, 
hay $12 a ton, oats 50 cents — C. H. E. 
Cortland Co. — The cold weather has 
delayed spring work considerably. 
However, most farmers hereabouts 
have their oats sown. Fitting the 
ground for cabbage and corn is now 
in progress. Farmers have been hav¬ 
ing poor hatches so far. Eggs are 
fertile, but do not seem to hatch. Maple 
syi’up has been s'elling for $1.75 a gal¬ 
lon, sugar at 30 cents a pound. Eggs 
are now bringing 28 cents.—G.. A. B.

White Diarrhea 
Remarkable Experience of Mrs. 
C. M. Bradshaw in Prevent¬ 
ing White Diarrhea 
The following letter will no doubt be 
of utmost interest to poultry raisers 
who have had serious losses from White 
Diarrhea. We will let Mrs. Bradshaw 
tell of her experience in her own words: 
“Gentlemen: I see reports of so 
many losing their little chicks with 
White Diarrhea, so thought I would 
tell my experience. I used to lose a 
great many from this cause, tried 
many remedies and was about dis¬ 
couraged. As a last resort I sent to 
the Walker Remedy Co., Dept. 437, 
Waterloo, Iowa, for their Walko White 
Diarrhea Remedy. I used two 50c 
packages, raised 300 White Wyandot- 
tes and never lost one or had one sick 
after giving the medicine and my chick¬ 
ens are larger and healthier than ever 
before. I have found this company 
thoroughly reliable and always get the 
remedy by return mail.—^Mrs. C. M. 
Bradshaw, Beaconsfield, Iowa.” 
Cause of White Diarrhea 
White Diarrhea is caused by the Bac¬ 
illus Bacterium Pullorum. This germ 
is transmitted to the baby chick 
through the yolk of the newly hatched 
egg. Readers are warned to beware 
of White Diarrhea. Don’t wait until 
it kills half your chicks. Take the 
“stitch in time that saves nine.” Re¬ 
member there is scarcely a hatch with¬ 
out some infected chicks. Don’t let 
these few infect your entire flock. Pre¬ 
vent it. Give 'Walko in all drinking 
water for the first two weeks and you 
won’t lose one chick where you lost 
hundreds before. These letters prove it: 
Never Lost a Single Chick 
Mrs. L. L. Tam, Burnetts Creek, 
Ind., writes: “I have lost my share of 
chicks from White Diarrhea. Finally 
I sent for two packages of Walko. I 
raised over 500 chicks and I never lost 
a single chick from White Diarrhea. 
Walko not only prevents White Diar¬ 
rhea, but it gives the chicks strength 
and vigor; they develop quicker and 
feather earlier.” 
Never Lost One After First Dose 
Mrs. Ethel Rhoades, Shenandoah, 
Iowa, writes: “My first incubator 
chicks, when but a few days old, began 
to die by the dozens with White Diar¬ 
rhea. I tried different remedies and 
was about discouraged with the chick¬ 
en business. Finally, I sent to the 
Walker Remedy Co., Waterloo, Iowa, 
for a box of their Walko White Diar¬ 
rhea Remedy. It’s just the only thing 
for this terrible disease. We raised 
700 thrifty, healthy chicks and never 
lost a single chick after the first dose.” 
You Run No Risk

rhea Remedy entirely at our risk

package of Walko—give it in all drink¬

watch results. You’ll find you won’t 
lose one chick where you lost hundreds 
before. It’s a positive fact. We guar¬ 
antee it. The Leavitt & Johnson Na¬ 
tional Bank, the oldest and strongest 
bank in Waterloo, Iowa, stands back 
of this guarantee. You run no risk.
