THEIR PRICES FIXED.
The Milk Shippers Association Give Their
Ultlmatum.

Ult1matUm.
Directors of the Milk Shippers assO-
citation met Tuesday afternoon in Chi
cago, and decided upon the lowest
terms upon which they would yield
their tactical product to the dealers.
In years past they have been compelled
to rise with the first pale CLEANS of
dawn and punch their drowsy COWS to
standing posture, in complete uncer-
tainty whether they would receive over
and above freight charges enough for
their milk to pay them for the trouble
Of extracting it.
At the end of the month they were
informed by the dealers of the price
they would receive for the months
supply. Now they are organized 1900
strong, and they propose to know in
advance what they will get for brush
ing the dew from the luXuriant jlmson
two hours before schedule time.
The City Dealers association met
last week and made proposition to
pay per eight gallon can 90 cents for
May and June, 70 for July and August,
and 80 for September and October.
The shippers will accept 60 cents Tor
May, G5 cents for June and 70 cents for
July. They do not care to take any
contracts beyond that time at present.
Some time in the next few days the
dealers will get together and formulate
their ultimatum.

the majority of cases do the rest. It is easy
for man to avoid sickness if he will keep

Kansas was never in better shape tn an
it is this spring. The wheat fields are
green and promising. The fruit trees
loaded with blossoms and stock of all
kinds has come through the winter in
first class shape. In Edwards county
there is enough wheat sowed to bring in
$500 for every man, woman and child in
the county if we have an average yield
and an average price. A good wheat
crop this year would put our farmers
practically out of debt without touching
the stock of cattle which they have on
