HEAVY PENALTY IN VIEW

Service will not be suspended on any

Utilities Commission can prevent it.
Nor will the commission sanction the
disintegration of the system through
the cutting off by the parent COM

These facts stood out today entirely
apart from the question of whether
the traction concern is to be given
hnarcial relief.
Whatever may be the decision as to
this. indications were not lacking at
the District building that the COM
mission intends to hold the company
together and require the Washington
Railway and Electric Company proper
to continue to operate all the lines
embraced in the system.

DOVER FARMERS BUY
DAIRY COMPANY'S PLANT

Dover's milk war ended on Friday
when S. NJ. Harrington of the Dover
1 Sanitary Milk Co., to which concern
the farmers had made demand for an
! increased price for their milk, claim
ing that an average of ga cents per
quart was not sufficient, agreed to sell
out TO the members Of the local branch
of the Interstate Milk Producers As
sociation. The consideration for the
entire plant, buildings, ground and
equipment, is said to be SS,500.
Because of the failure several days
ago of the company to comply with
the demands of the farmers of the
local branch, the membership of the
local branch quickly subscribed more
than $4,000 for a new cooling station,
and had an option on a good site near
the railroad station, expecting within
a few weeks to commence operations
toward erecting a cooling station.
Mr.. Harrington, evidently realizing
the farmers and milk dealers meant
business and that Dover did not have
room to accommodate two cooling sta
tions, made the proposition on Friday
to the local members to sell. After
a conference the offer was accepted
and the deal consummated. The new
management has assumed control of
the dairy.
The new organization has agreed to
guarantee Mr.. Harrington with suffi-
cient milk to supply his Dover Gus
toners, and in this respect he will see
to the bottling of the milk, washing
of the bottles and other details, the
company assuming no other respon-
sibility than selling the milk to him
at International prices. All the re-
naming milk will be sent to the dairy
company in Philadelphia.
The members of the local associa-
ton that has purchased the plant of
INC SANITARY GaiIy 90. viii Idhe STOCK
in the concern to the amount of the
purchase price, and possibly more in
order to make Dover one of the most
important milk cooling stations in
Kent county, if not in Delaware.
1t is predicted that practically every
member of the association will pur-
chase one or more full bred cows, so
as to keep up the standard of the milk
as well as increase the supply.
