WAYNE DAIRYMEN FEEL PRICE PINCH; TO MEET THURSDAY

By WILLIAM R. SANBORN Wayne county dairymen will meet at the court house Thursday evening to discuss the cost of milk production and the price of milk. Unlike other springs, when grass is abundant, milk, it is claimed, is actually costing more to produce than in last January, owing to the advance in the cost of feed. All grains have been going up for months, and every feeding ration has followed in price. Oats have reached the highest level ever known in America. They are selling at about $1.50 per bushel iu New York, on track. Corn sold at $2.17 at Chicago last Saturday. May corn has advanced from $1.25 to $1.97 at Chicago in about three months. Oats are brineinc $1.10 here in

' $1.75 for a good article. In tho face of high priced grains, pastures are about a month late. The ground has i never been really warmed since last fall, so th; mowth has been slow, comparatively speaking, but pastures are improving daily, awl have had abundant rain. We should have plenty of grass soon. In the meanwhile farmers are conserving their pastures; are feeding, while giving ihe jirass a chance. Milk Comparatively Cheap. A local dairyman says that milk is cheaper i:i Richmond than in other cities. A Pittsburgh man says they are now paying lio cents per quart for milk against i:.5 cents here. Milk is retailing ;il It; cents in Hamilton, Ohio, this spring, Himes Brothers said. Ice cream men and restaurants are paying 40 c;nts a gallon in Richmond for milk in cans, abm. V lowest price on the map at th; ii :m if the producers are correct. A lneclinv was held lurt vi ok at -which v ; producers wert t. it-sent. This - i: -,d in a call for tin.- neral meetii:.

Berry growers tell us that they expect plenty of berries if nothing happens to prevent growth from now on. One Sid Bears Each Year. According to Walter Ratliff there is a Northern Spy apple tree out on the Emery Stover place, north of Reid hospital, that has the habit of bearing only on one side of the tree each year. Last year the eastern side of the tree was fairly well laden, while this year the blossoms are all on the west side of the tree.

"We took over the Lynn flour mill about a week ago," said Mr. Adamson, "and being short of wheat to keep running we paid $3.00 for about 400 bushels of choice grain. We also paid $2.70 for corn and are' paying around $1.10 for good oats. Number 2 wheat is worth $2. S3 now, but the price is likely to change from day to day, the way markets are. Flour is worth $14 per barrel at wholesale. As to the growing crop, will say that there are some pretty good wheat fields around here; the improvement of late being rather surprising. But a lot of wheat was sown to oats, and a lot more plowed for corn, so that the acreage harvested will be limited. We have considerable oat acreage in and, in the main, oats are looking very good. Don't think there is more than 15 per cent of our corn planted, most likely less, and Monday's rain won't help corn planters." Wheat at $3 at Glen Karn. "Yes, we have paid $3 for wheat at the elevator," said Ben Richards, of Glen Karn, Ohio, on Monday. "We are also paying $1.10 for oats and $2.70 for corn. Some are talking $3 for wheat at the threshers on the coming crop and it begins to look that way, though none of us are prophets." Mr. Richards says that all late sown wheat has improved greatiy and that there are some fields which promise a crop. The poor wheat has been mostly sown to oats. As to corn he nays very little has been planted, but there will be more oats than usual, owing to the condition of wheat. Very little rye is grown near Glen Karn. but what i in is looking well. As to farmers selling their feeder pigs, not many are doing so; they are mostly holding on to see what happens to the hog market. Says Monday's Rain Needed. W. Li. Magaw, living on the liberty pike, says that while Monday's rain will delay corn planting a day or two, that the water was of general benefit. Says the ground is dry a few inches down and that the rain fall will make pastures grow and was of benefit to wheat and oats. "This cool, moist weather is just what wheat requires," he said, "to make it stool out. and it is also good oat weather." Grain is growing faster than if we had been having hat, dry weather, in Mr. Masaw's opinion. Farm Help at Picture Shows. The C3 acres of wheat on the Magaw place was all sown late. It was not touched by the fly, and is looking fine. The 30 acres of oats looks like a crop and the outlook for clover is very promising. Mr. Magaw says that: "living close to town, enabling the hired help to go to picture shows of evenings, helps a lot. I have been able to get all the help needed, mostly on that account. We haven't any hogs this year, that is to say only 100 head, which means that we are about out of the hog business. What we may do this fall will depend on our corn crop, the price of corn and the price of hogs."

Plant Spuds! Is Earnest Advice To Every Gardener If you have any garden space to spare by all means plant some of It to potatoes. This is the advice of the United States department of agriculture to gardeners who want to avoid the high prices for potatoes which seem to be in prospect for next fall. The early crop of potatoes in the southern states is now well advanced and soon there will be a supply of new potatoes on all the markets. These will not last but a short time, however, and can not be depended upon for use next winter. The late or main crop produces most of tho potatoes that go into storage and supply the markets all through the winter months. Home gardeners can help make this supply adequate. Land that is now in early garden crops, in some sections may be planted to late potatoes, after these crops have been removed. Any vacant or unused land, even though it may be a little rough and difficult to handle, may often be made to produce good potatoes. Even the hackyard will help to produce the "spuds" for the family table if it is not too shady. There is likely

to be much unused farming land this year and groups of city men could well afford to plant this land to potatoes on a Bhare basis.
