And there’s a good, sound reason— 
Craine scientific 3-wall construction. 
Inside the upright staves. Over this, 
the waterproof, frost-stopping Silafelt.

January Milk Prices Announced—County Notes 
T HE Dairymen’s League Cooperative 
Association announces that beginning 
January 7 milk that is sold in Class 1 
entering the fluid trade, will be $2.33 per 
100 pounds. This is a reduction of 47c per 
100 or one cent a quart below the price of 
$2.80 which went into effect November 
12. The price of milk used in other 
classes will remain the same. Distribu¬ 
tors have passed the full reduction on to 
the consumer with the result that fluid 
milk is now being sold on the New York 
market at 14c for bottled milk and 10c 
per quart loose, the lowest that milk was 
sold in New York for a long time at this 
time of the year. 
SHEFFIELD PRODUCERS AN¬ 
NOUNCE JANUARY PRICES 
A special meeting of the group mem¬ 
bers of the Sheffield Farms Company Pro¬ 
ducers held in New York City on Friday, 
January 11, voted to maintain the base 
price for 3 per cent, milk to the members 
of their organization at $2.63 per 100 
pounds, from January 1 to January 15 
inclusive, and at $2.35 from January 16 to 
31 inclusive. 
DAIRYMEN’S LOCALS TO 
MEET 
The annual meeting of each local Dairymen’s 
League Association will be held Saturday, 
January 26. There are 897 of these local 
associations. 
ASSOCIATION OF AGRICUL¬ 
TURAL SOCIETIES MEET 
The 36th Annual Convention of New 
York State Association of County Agri¬ 
cultural Societies was held in Albany on 
January 17. The New York State 
Association of Uniontown Agricultural 
Societies held a morning session joining 
with the county societies in their after¬ 
noon session. The joint banquet in the 
evening concluded the meeting. Com¬ 
missioner of Farms and Markets, B. A. 
Pyrke, was present at the meeting. 
NEW YORK COUNTY NOTES 
Montgomery Co-—Dairymen are pre¬ 
paring for ice harvest as the weather is 
making ice rapidly. Large quantities of 
hay have been hauled to market at $16 
to $20 a ton at the barns. Potatoes are 
bringing $1 a bushel, eggs 55c, butter 58c, 
pork 10c to 12c, fowls 25c, chickens 30c 
live weight. The buckwheat crop was 
large and has been sold at $1.92 a 100 lbs. 
Coal has been more plentiful than last 
year, but the quality is poor. There are 
several good dairy farms for rent or for 
sale in this locality. The milk business is 
not satisfactory to the producer by a long 
shot. As a matter of fact it won’t be until 
the cost of production is lower. We will 
have to raise more small grain to feed. 
Fresh milch and springers are selling from 
$80 to $100. Cows with long pedigrees 
are bringing much higher prices.— 
C. P. V. V. 
Broome Co.—Snow covered the] ground 
for New Year’s. There were fewer pur¬ 
chasers and buyers on the Christmas 
public market than in former years. 
Money is scarce in this section. Many 
farmers are working in the fields getting 
out mine props and railroad ties. Wood 
is selling in nearby villages for $3. Eggs 
are bringing 55c, butter 55c, potatoes 
$1.10 and fowls 28c to 30c.—L. J. C. 
Eggs were 65c a dozen. Hens, by the 
way, are laying very good where they are 
getting good care. 
Turkeys were a great disappointment to 
a great many this year. Just before 
Thanksgiving 40c live weight was being 
offered. However, many hoping for last 
year’s prices held them for Christmas, 
when the price dropped to 25c per pound, 
although if you went to the local market 
to buy one dressed, you had to pay from 
50c to 55c dressed. 
Daniel Helmer has moved from his 
large farm to Evans Mills. Lester Hen¬ 
derson has taken .possession of the farm as 
tenant. Many farms are without tenants. 
Hay is rather slow just now, $17 a ton 
seems to be a top price, but farmers are 
expecting to see it go to $20 for better 
grade. Cows are bringing from $40 to 
$70.— Mrs. C. J. D. 
ALBANY FARM NEWS 
Events in Albany have been rather 
quiet. The Legislature has been occu¬ 
pied with routine work and with the intro¬ 
duction of bills. The real interest will 
develop as these bills are taken up for 
consideration and hearings. Many bills 
have been introduced following out the 
recommendations of Governor Smith in 
his annual message, the chief of which are 
bills calling for the consolidating of many 
state departments and one for the restora¬ 
tion of direct primaries for state and judi¬ 
cial offices. 
A resolution was introduced for a legis¬ 
lative investigation of the State Depart¬ 
ment of Farms and Markets with special 
reference as to how $2,200,000 of the 
$5,000,000 appropriated to reimburse the 
owners of killed tubercular cattle were 
expended. 
NEWS FROM WASHINGTON 
The event receiving the most discussion 
during the past week both in Washington 
and throughout the entire country is the 
so-called Bok World Peace Plan. This 
plan was the result of a prize of $100,000 
offered by Edward W. Bok to the person 
who would submit “the best practicable 
plan by which the United States may 
cooperate with other nations, looking 
toward the prevention of war.” The win¬ 
ning plan was chosen by a jury called the 
American Peace Award, from 22,165 plans 
submitted. In brief, the plan proposes: 
I. That the United States shall im¬ 
mediately enter the Permanent Court of 
International Justice, under the condi¬ 
tions stated by Secretary Hughes and 
President Harding in February, 1923. 
II. That without becoming a member 
of the League of Nations as at present 
constituted, the United States shall offer 
to extend its present cooperation with the 
league and participate in the work of the 
league as a body of mutual counsel under 
conditions which: 
(a) Substitute moral force and public 
opinion for the military and economic 
force originally implied in Articles X 
and XVI. 
(b) Safeguard the Monroe Doctrine. 
(c) Accept the fact that the United 
States will assume no obligations under 
the Treaty of Versailles except by act 
of Congress. 
(d) Propose that membership in the 
league should be opened to all nations. 
(e) Provide for the continuing devel¬ 
opment of international law.
