Tuesday morning will see the opening 
of the program of the various associations 
and organizations taking part in the pro¬ 
gram. On the evening of this day there 
will be a joint meeting of all the associa¬ 
tions at the Auditorium on Chestnut Street. 
Secretary Frank P. Willits, of the Penn¬ 
sylvania State Department of Agriculture, 
will preside at this meeting. The chief 
speaker of the meeting will be Secretary 
H. C. Wallace of the U. S. Department 
of Agriculture. 
One of the features of the week will be 
the Vocational Boys’ Judging contest, 
put on by the Bureau of Vocational Edu¬ 
cation. This will be the eighth annual 
judging contest and includes judging of 
corn, potatoes, poultry, swine and dairy 
cattle. Last year over 200 boys from 128 
communities in the State where voca¬ 
tional agriculture is being taught, com¬ 
peted in the various contests. It is ex¬ 
pected a larger number will compete this 
year. Each school is permitted to enter 
teams in any three of the five contests. 
The school whose teams score the highest 
number of points is awarded the Grand 
Championship cup, which is presented by 
the State Chamber of Commerce. The 
school or county in order to compete for 
this cup must have entrants in three 
contests. Last year the cup was won by 
Benton, Columbia County. The town 
winning this cup three times is given per¬ 
manent possession of it. The contestants 
will stop at the Central Y. M. C. A. in 
Harrisburg. 
EASTERN PENNSYLVANIA 
NOTES 
Oliver D. Schock 
Traveling through Berks, Lebanon and 
Dauphin Counties during the entire 
month of December, it was not uncom¬ 
mon to see farmers engaged in plowing. 
Sales of farm stock and implements will 
be numerous next spring. Pure bred 
Holstein cattle have been selling any¬ 
where from $50 to $150 per head. At 
a recent sale held by Henry Lebo near 
Host, there was very active bidding for 
farm machinery. 
A farm of 161 acres situated near Read¬ 
ing was recently sold at public auction for 
$25 an acre. A good stone farmhouse, 
tenant house and barn were included in 
the bargain. Scarcity of farm help and 
high cost, account for the depressed value. 
Holstein cows are rapidly supplanting 
other stock in Eastern Pennsylvania. 
The present range of prices for cereals is: 
wheat, 90c to $1; corn, 65c to 75c; oats, 
40c to 45c. The potato market has not 
made the advance that growers have been 
awaiting. Pennsylvania potatoes selling 
in car lots have been quoted from 2 to 
2% per cwt. The hulk of the crop is being 
held for better prices. 
PENNSYLVANIA COUNTY 
NOTES 
Crawford Co. — Snow covered the 
ground on New Year’s Day. We cer¬ 
tainly had a fine fall and early winter. 
The weather was generally very warm. 
However, with the coming of snow, it was 
colder. Eggs are bringing from 45c to 50c, 
butter 60c to 65c, potatoes $1 a bushel, 
apples $1.25 to $2.00 a bushel, corn at the 
mill $1.05, oats 65c, dressed pork 10c to 
11c. Alfalfa hay is being shipped. It is 
selling for $30 a ton. There is some call 
for cows, no demand for horses. 
Greene Co.—On January 5 the temper¬ 
ature dropped to 8 degrees below zero. 
There is no snow on the ground, which 
makes it hard on wheat and meadows. 
Stock is wintering well. There is a con¬ 
siderable amount of drilling for gas going 
on in this section, but the wells are light. 
Cattle 3c to 5c, hogs 6c, butter 45c, eggs 
52c, old chickens 16c, young chickens 20c, 
turkeys 20c.—J. F. M.
