KENTS HILL:

Mrs. Mary Palmer Gushing of New
ton, Mass, q former kents Hill grad
uate, and the present president of the
Presidents Club Qf Massachusetts,
gave a most interesting and enter
tanning talk on the life and charac-
teristics of the negro of the Sea Is
lands on Thursday evening. Mrs.
Palmer passed some time in this part
of the south and found the surviving
remnant of the old time "darkey" as
it exists there very interesting.
Through sketches, songs and anec-
dotes Mrs. Palmer drew a very vivid
picture of the life among these people,
emphasizing the kindly feeling exist
ing between the whites and the ne
gro of that particular section. Mrs.
Palmer is remaining at the Seminary
for a few days as the guest of Miss
Frances \. Davis and Mrs. Ella ID.
Morse.

of $47.S19. and he understands that
the reason this was paid was because
he found that man yof the men were
being underpaid. But he would like
to know what right Mr.. Bradford
had to take the money for that pur-
pose. He also found that in class A
common stock there had been paid
premiums to the amount of 500, $50,
but he fought this money ought to
be> distributed among the patrons
Of the company.
1--WE are paying to the New Eng
land Milk Producers. association as
milk producers one-half of one per
cent. to look after our business and
] think the directors ought to look
into the Turner Center system a little
more carefully. If am paying the
New England directors to look after
my business I want them to do it."
President Knight was not in agree
ment with Mr.. Robinson that this
meeting was the proper place to
bring up this matter. suggesting that
it might be brought up better at
meeting Of the stockholders or di-
rcctors of the Turner Center Sys-
tenn. = IL
"Why, there are two men in the
town of Albion hired by this sys-
tenn who are getting $1,000 each. I'd
like to know where we farmers can
get that amount of money" said Mr..
Robinson.
That these two men mentioned by
Mr.. Robinson are not ordinary men
and are doing scientific work Of test
ing that cannot be done by the
farmers was pointed out by C. M.
Brown OF Benton. He thought these
men were well worth the money.
Mr.. Brown also explained the bonus
given to the employees of the Turner
Center system that the men had been
getting too low wages and they had
threatened to leave and go else
where if the bonus were not paid.
Edwin Bullock suggested that the
new cream plan advanced by the
Turner system and other associa-
tions was working havoc to the
farmers out in Windsor. but he did
not think that a great many people
understood the new plan anyway.
AS he looked at it the farmers stand
20 lose a good deal on their SKINNED
milk. 1t appeared from the general
discussion that the Turner Center
system as we'll as other great milk
concerns are just now getting a sur
plus of milk more than they can
handle. and SO they have adopted
what they are pleased to call the
cream plan. which throws back on
the farm much of the skinned milk.
The tenor of the remarks of several
of the speakers was that the New
England association was not help
ing out the Maine farmers as much
as it's hould.

TURNER CENTER
DAIRY SYSTEM IS
SHARPLY SCORED
In Talk Given by L. G. Robin
son of Albion at Meeting of
kennebec Branch of N. E. M.
P. A. Held Friday-Interest-
ing Session and Officers
Elected

Lively discussion of important
topics featured the annual meeting
OF the kennebec county branch of
the New England Milk Producers
association which was held Friday
morning in the Senate Chamber at
the State House with a good attend
ance of members. The session was
presided over by the president, w. T..
Knight of Clinton who at the OPEN
ing of the session presented his re-
port for the past year, this being &C
cepted together with that of the sec
rotary and treasurer, Luther w. Es-
tey of Clinton.
The election of officers took place
early in the session. w. f. Knight
OF Clinton was reelected president;
Edwin Bullock of South Windsor,
vice president; and l.. w. Estey of
Clinton, secretary treasurer. Daniel
+. Foster of Augusta paid a warm
tribute to the efficiency of President
knight and strongly urged his re-
election.
The principal address was given by
F. c. Warner of Providence, K. l..
manager of the Southern District of
the New England Milk Producers
association, who discussed extern
sively milk market conditions. illus
trating his points by the use of
charts, and spoke at some length of
the proposed tariff. Reports of the
conditions in the various parts of the
county were given by members at
the roll call and this was followed
by a round-table talk on local prob
lens in the county.
The attention of the members was
called to the report of the Turner
Center System by L. G. Robinson of
Albion, who offered many criticisms
of the figures shown for the different
items. He said that he came down
from Albion to bring the matter be-
fore the meeting and to be shown
wherein he was mistaken, if he had
been by the figures. He said among
other things that it cost the system
81 ,094.3 1868, in 1920 over 1910, and he
said that for general expenses he
found it cost $50 ,0SS. 45 over 1919 and
that in manufacturing expenses the
system exceeded 1919 by 1858, 500,
while the selling expenses exceeded
1919 by $4S2,963. He said he would
like to know where all this money
had gone to, and why the expenses
had advanced so rapidly. He said
that the system conducts five differ
ent branch stores and that. they had
failed to return as a result of operat-
ing these stores in excess of profits,
$57O.396.
In other words, he said, 1t was
costing the members of the company
on account of zoo many bosses or
something ere about 100000 store
to carry IN the business. He said
ne mott "a also that Mr. Bradford
paid Es employees bonus in 1920,
