—Lancaster Farming. Saturday, September 15. 1973 44 < Continued From Page 1) Virginia Feeder Cattle Up 30-40 pet. Last year, according to market reports in the Sept. 23 issue of Lancaster Farming, feeder cattle in Monterey, Va., were selling for $42.50 to $45 00-cwt. for choice and fancy animals weighing 500 to 700 pounds. Comparable figures this year, for a September 10 feeder sale, were $57.50 and $59.50. In the 705-800 pound class, the 1972 range was $39.00 to $4OOO, while this year's was $57.50 to $58.50. Animals weighing 805 to 1000 pounds were bringing $37.75 to $39.50 last year, $52.50 to $55.00 this year. The Class I milk price in the Federal Order 4 (Philadelphia) market is up to $9.16 after federal milk of ficials held price hearings August 28 in Clayton, Missouri. Local independent dairies are boosting payments to farmers, too, according to William Deisley, “Because if we don’t pay farmers more, we won’t be able to buy any milk." Deisley is president of Moore Dairies and the Lancaster County Dairymen’s Association. He said Moore plans to boost its Class I price to $8 50 per hundredweight on October 1, up from $8.19 at the present. Deisley charged the Shapp ad ministration once again with playing politics in the milk market. In a statement prepared for the Dairymen’s Association, Deisley said: “It is truly unfortunate that despite the fact that Penn sylvania has a Milk Marketing Board and a law to deal with milk pricing from producer to consumer, the Shapp ad ministration refuses to put it to use. Recent orders by Chairman Kapleau of the MMB have been in direct violation of either state laws or Cost of Living Council regulation and -have been declared invalid. Meanwhile production and processing costs increase and are ignored by the Shapp administration. The point has now been reached in which the dairy industry must do for itself that which the Shapp, Kapleau and McHale combination either choose to ignore, violate or politically manipulate.” She Sailed Alone The first woman to sail across the Atlantic Ocean alone was Ann Davidson She sailed the Felicity Ann, a 23-. foot sailboat from Plymouth, England, May, 18, 1952, and arrived at Miami, Fla , Aug 12, 1953. ■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■ CALL Elmer Better cm LAWN-BOY* W^4^ $9I9SVALUE! f:ip, ■mmm.
