More than $1,000 farmers are
on strike in New York State to-
day, Withholding their milk, and
pickering the roads and dumping
the milk that is shipped by scabs,
fighting off the state troopers.
What is the reason for this
strike, what are the farmers fight
ing for, who are their enemies and
what is the possible outcome of
the strike?
Last winter when city workers
were saying nine and ten cents a
quart for milk, the farmers were
getting from one to- two and a
half cents a quart. The dealers
were taking the seven to eight
cents for pasteurizAtion, delivery
and profits-enough profits to e.
able Bordens to pay high salaries
to its directors and net 100000
clear in 1882. At the same time,
it was costing the farmer at least
four and a third cents to produce
the milk.
