Twenty-Three Acres

The John C. Wilson farm of 63
acres in Dallas Township was pur-
chased this week by Elmer D. Par-
rish of Dallas from James Race,

Thirty-one acres and the timber
were sold almost immediately by
Mr. Parrish. Raymond Balut of

j of Wilkes-Barre who plans to build
{a home.

Zarembo home on Davenport St. to
Andrew Polichak and has sold the

Pupils Complete Book
On Life Of Christ

pleted by members of the Junior
Sunday School class of Huntsville

ing held in the church Tuesday
afternoon. Miss Mildred Major,

were Ethel Culp, Mary Dargoy, Don-
ald Frantz, Richard Culp, Carl War-

Ten White Leghorns Lay
1,200 Eggs In Six Months
Ten white leghorn chickens owned
by Alvin Masters have laid 1,200
eggs since December 1, 1940. Mr.
Masters who is a Dallas bus driver
and lives in a part of the Parrish
home on Main St., Dallas, makes no
claim to being a poultry expert but
believes that white leghorns—given
ordinary care and attention—are
profit makers. His flock is housed
in an old coop and is without elec-
tric lights—but of course Al is en-
thusiastic about his chickens and
sees to it that they get the best of
care.
Huntsville Class Has

Christian Church held a covered
dish supper at the church last

{Lee Park;
Capt. C. N. Booth Wil Be
Buried Tomorrow At 2
(Continued from Page 1)
entered the service of the Pennsyl-
vania Railway Company. Later he
became head of the Lehigh Valley
Coal Company police force and a
few years ago organized his own
private detective agency composed
of fifty old associates with offices
throughout the State. In his capaci-
ty as head of the agency he trav-
eled to all parts of the anthracite
field and played an important part
in the protection of national defense
work in Pennsylvania.
Captain Booth was an outstanding
police officer; intensely patriotic,
possessing tremendous energy and
ability to do the job at hand, and
devoted to his work. He had no
scorn too great for those who mixed
politics with duty and never lowered
his standards. He advocated Civil
Service for police officers and was
one of the most active proponents
of the Police Civil Service law in
Pennsylvania. He was a life mem-
ber of the State Police Chiefs’ Asso=
ciation and a member of the North-
eastern Pennsylvania Police Execu-
tives’ Association. He was a mem-
ber of all Masonic bodies and of the
Shrine and was also a former mem-
ber of Dallas Rotary Club.
Captain Booth was a man of
cheerful disposition; endowed with
a personality that was infectious, he
made friends quickly and held them
throughout his life. He was engaged
in a profession that required tact
and sternness but his ready ability
to see the light side of a serious
situation disarmed friend and op-
ponent alike. His code was best ex-
pressed in the Biblical phrase, “do
good though the heavens fall,” and
he followed it earnestly. He was a
genial host and nothing pleased him
more-than to enlarge his family cir-
cle with old friends and associates.
He was a devoted husband and
father.
Captain and Mrs. Booth summered
for many years at Harvey’s Lake and
about thirteen years ago purchased
the home on Lehman Ave. where
they lived the year around. Four
years ago they took up their winter
residence in an apartment at Hotel
Sterling. They had been living in
Dallas since May.
Beside his wife, the former Mar-
garet E. Brittin, Captain Booth
leaves one son, Nelson, a civil en-
gineer of Dallas; two foster chil-
dren, George Lee Walton of Wilkes-
Barre and Mrs. Lewis P. Rhody of
one grandchild, Helen
Ann and two foster grandchildren,
Margaret Jane Rhody and George
Walton, Jr.
Interment will be in the family
plot at Warden Cemetery beside his
foster son, Harry Stanley Walton.
Pallbearers will be his associates in
the Booth Detective Agency.

Higher Milk
Prices Asked
Farmers Contend They
Can't Make A Profit
Representative milk producers
from this area attended the hearing
of the State Milk Control Board
held in Scranton Friday and asked
for an increase in milk prices effec-
tive July 1. The hearing came as
ducers who contend that advancing
labor, feed and production costs
make it impossible to produce milk
at present prices without a loss to
the farmers.
Dealers contended that increases
asked by the farmers are too great
and the Milk Board took the whole
matter under advisement to release
its findings at a later date.
The milk producers asked for
increase from $2.50 to $2.75 un-
dred for Class 1, 3.5 butterfat con-
tent milk; and for an increase from
$1.80 to $2.10 a hundred for Class
1-A milk. They also asked for a
10c increase in the formula price
of Class 2 milk and an increase of
5c in the formula price of Class 3
milk.
Beside Class 1 and Class 1-A milk
there are -13 other classifications
based on formula under which milk
is sold by the farmer. Formula
prices are based on the butterfat
content of milk times the price of
92 score butter in the New York
market plus a constant. The farm-
ers asked for increases in these clas-
sifications as well.
