JESSE WATSON APPOINTED
DEPUTY OF COLUMBIA LODGE
Harriet E., widow of S. Benton
Clepper, died at Columbia aged 77
years.
A determined effort has been
launched by farmers who produce
milk in several sections of the coun-
ty to alter the conditions under
which they have been forced to dis-
pose of their product to the local
distributors.
At Quarryville a slumbering local
of the Inter-State Milk Producers
Association has been revived and in
the Elizabethtown-Mount Joy section
about forty farmers signed contracts
in the same organization and estab-
lished a local that will surely be
heard from.
Without any organization with
which to form a contract with the
distributing agencies, the local farm-
ers say they cannot obtain simple
justice as individuals from those
through whom they are compelled by
circumstances to dispose of their
milk.
A variety of prices, that are eut
without notification, prevail on the
different routes for the same grade
of milk, so it is said.
Several Different Rates
At a meeting held at the home of
David Zook, Donegal Springs, last
Friday evening, after ‘‘swapping”
experiences, the farmers found that
at least six different prices prevailed,
in the making of which the producer
had no voice.
At this meeting they organized a
local branch of the Inter-State Milk
Producers Association. Another
meeting has been arranged for Tues-
day evening, July 8 at the warehouse
of the Mount Joy Farm Products Co.
on Frank street in this place. Rep-
