WRITES LETTER
FROM NEW YORK
E. F. HorEnig Tells Of Conditions
in the Western Part Of the State
Land Wakes and Crops


: Well after travelling 5000 miles
we finally bought 130-acre farm. We
travelled over Erie, Chautauqua and
Cattaraugus counties of New York;
Erie, Crawford and Mercer counties
of Pennsylvania, and Portage and
Erie counties of Ohio. We have final
ly decided to locate at Collins, n. Y,
Erie county. We are one and one
half miles from Collins, on the Erie
railroad and have paved street
known as Quaker street. We have a
fine location, small house Of fifteen
rooms, bath, hot and cold water and
natural CASTOR cooking, heating and
lighting. We have put UP over fifty
tons of hay, have twelve acres Of
oats, eight acres of buckwheat, eight
acres of corn, one and one-half acres
of wheat, two acres of peas, one-half
acre of potatoes, a good garden and
much small fruit We got with the
farm ID milk cows, one male, two heif-
ers VIII be fresh this fall, three spring
calves, 70 hens, 80 chickens, three
horses and all the farm tools. Our
milk averages around three hundred
pounds per day. We take it to the
cheese factory about one and one
half miles away The price varies, as
we get paid for what cheese is made.
The price for July was about $3.50 per
hundred pounds Of milk, but the
vueen City dairy is paying $500 per
for per cent milk and bet
ter for 31a to 4 per cent milk. This
is a great country as some of the
farmers are still grading their grain.
They are a few years behind the times.
That is one reason that farms are
selling so cheap. However, good, up
to-date places are not cheap. Land
around us sells at 500 per acre, some
more and some less. The location and
amount of stock and equipment makes
some difference. Invariably farms are
sold all equipped, as western and
eastern buyers prefer to buy farms
with machinery and stock. There
are many eastern and western buy
ers. It is far better to- spend a month
looking around to see the different
farms.
Dairying is tie main occupation,
excepting near Lake Erie, and there
everything is grapes and small fruit.
understand that grapes this year will
sell at $50 to $75 per ton. Grapes
Yield from two to four tons to the
acre. There is much truck farming |
going on here, as Buffalo is only 80 |
niles away, and trucks hauling to
Buffalo every day makes truck farm
ng very profitable.
We have had only three real hot
tays since it quit raining. This has
5een backward season, as we have
lad SO much rain, although crops look |
good now. We have a gas we'll on
he, farm and prospects of another
me. We also have II acres of fine |
timber:
Believing that many of our Baraboo
rierds would like to hear a word of |
he east, I take this method of letting
hem Know Of this part of New York. |
I any Baraboo folks ever come this |
way tire latch string is always out, |

welcome.

SOME Difference

There are few sentences from the
address by Senator John w. Weeks
OF Massachusetts, during recent debate
in the senate which indicates the need
of joint bipartisan committee on
war expenditures: The recommends
ton of the war department was for
sT3 100000 tfor purchase OF horses
yet when that question was discussed
for fiye minutes on the floor o fthe sen
ate an amendment was offered sub
stl;uiing s25.Oe0.ooo for s7S 100000.
"It was taken TO conference. re
ferred to the war department and the
wa rdepartment replied that S25 200. :
oeo would be sufficient for It's pur-
poses"
II the first request of the depart
ment had been followed biindly by
congress. nearly three times as much
money would have been apppropriat-
I'D as necessary. there would have
been temptation to extravaS Ssnce. and
