Ladies' Auxiliary Active
The monthly meeting of the
Ladies Auxiliary of the Harrington
Fire Company was held Monday eve
ming and in spite of the storm, a
good many of the ladies were pres
ent. Mrs. Baynard Smith presided
over the meeting which opened with
a prayer in unison. Reports were
received on the proceeds from the
firemen's annual supper and also
the banquet to the Eastern Star,
both were very satisfactory. The
treasurer's report also showed thrift
by the auxiliary. Mrs. Lillian Hat
field was unanimously elected to
membership. The ladies discussed
the plan and then named Mrs. Inez
Harrington a purchasing committee
of one to buy sufficient dishes to be
able to serve $50 guests, heretofore
they only had tables and dishes suf-
ficient to serve 125.
200 Farmers Met Nov. Ii, About
Milk Price
Preparations to entertain the larg-
e st assemblage of farmers gathered
together in this vicinity in some
time; over two hundred invitations
were sent out by cards and many
more were personally invited. The
meeting was held in the High School
Auditorium, Wednesday evening
under the auspices of the Delaware
Dairyman's Association, of which l..
d. Caulk of Woodside is vice-presi-
dent for Kent County. This is a
new organization and was only or
ganiZed after so much controversy
arose over the price of milk paid
to the farmers by the Interstate
Milk Producers Association. The
Delaware organization has in its
constitution the general welfare of
the dairy industry, advocate breed
ing of better dairy cattle and i'm
proved methods of producing, manu-
facture, distribution and marketing
of milk and milk products.
Among the speakers was William
X MOffett, president of the Allied
Dairyman Association of Pennsyl-
and also a nationally known
speaker in the person of General
d. Butler. No doubt one
of the most courageous and dynamic
speakers on the American platform
today. When General Butler cham
pions a cause he goes at it in the
spirit of olden days as a fighting
marine. This problem is important
for every farmer and every citizen
should be interested.
1t seems in all former meetings
1nly one side of the milk question |
las been discussed, there is an or
,anization of farmers in this To-
,ality in the interest of the milk |
industry; apparently allied with the
Producers. 1t is reported |
hat for expenses of the association,
,ix cents from every hundred pounds
If milk sent to the philadelphia
she'd" is deducted whether you be-
ong to the association or not. The |
lnnual meeting for the election of |
,fficers and directors will take place |
N November 20-21. 1t is very like
Y the Delaware Dairyman's AssO- |
.iation will demand recognition and |
voice in the meeting sponsoring |
he cause of the farmers.
