Lancaster Farming reminds
readers that market prices are
the result of reports sent to the
newspaper by various auctions or
USD A reporting services. It
would be impossible to check the
accuracy of the approximately
115 markets that appear weekly.
Editors have always been aware
that inflated or inaccurate prices
are of no service to anyone and
have no place in this publication.
Such reports are useless to our
readers and take up vital editori
al space.
Readers, though, who employ
the services of an auction house
might recognize incorrect reports
from persona] experience. When
that occurs, please notify the auc
tion house and send a copy, also,
to our attention.
We thank you for your input
and to auction houses for their
cooperation.
