Dairy Farmers Rally for Cleveland Conference
WellPaid Cooperative Officials Always Assist
Price-Cutting for Farmers

dairy cooperativeS, including Mr.
Wade and his agents in the N. W.
C. S. Marshall pointed out that
the high salaried officials of the
milk selling cooperatives have never
fought for higher prices for the
farmers, but have always assisted
the dealers to cut the prices to the
farmers.
Now farmers are beginning TO
take things into their own hands.
citing the victorious milk strike at
Virginia, MINI. Marshall also
pointed out that the well-to-do
farmers controlling the grange were
afraid that the farmers would form
a unity movement in spite of their
leaders. That's why we we're forced
to pay the exorbitan5 fee Of IS for
the hall before was opened and
also why the hall was not heated
before the crowd assembled at the
meeting at 8 O'Clock.
The dairy cooperatives' leaders
were challenged to defend them
selves before the farmers but they
were afraid to do so. The chief
henchmen of Wade left the meet
ing and with the trustees of the
grange tried to disrupt the meeting
from the rear.
When the henchmen of Wade
said that Marshall was the Com
munist candidate for Governor in
1882, one farmer replied, That
doesn't scare us. It's only the
Communists who lead us in strug-
gle to save our homes"

We went through winter with the

BLUE EAGLE LAYS DEAD SAYS
WORKER
By a Worker CORRESPONDENT

ALBANY, N. Y.-An old friend of
mine, one of those has beens"
desperately in need of a job, and
for whom procured employment
in a restaurant, complained to me
that his employer, who displays the
Blue Eagle in his window, "We do
our part" keeps him working about
so hours week and pays him Sc,
less than seven cents an hour,
My friend asked me if that IS
legal, under the Blue Eagle? "Is
the eagle i'll that it cannot use its
bill?" he asked. Perhaps the en-
blem should have been "blue
chicken" as a chicken would be
apt to clay eggs" whereas "the
eagle lays dead" he said.

The local press did not inform of

BANK DEPOSITS
CLIMB SHARPLY
Nearly 800 Millions Added
Since Surety Plan
Started.
BY CHARLES p. SHAEFFER.
Associated Press Business Writer.

Deposits Of weekly reporting mem
Der banks Of the Federal Reserve Sys-
tenn have risen almost $500. 900 900
since the insurance law granting full
protection to deposits up to $2,500
went into effect on January
The latest statement of condition
Of these banks, which comprises insti-
tutions in 80 leading cities, shows
total deposits Of sl5497, ,000. 900 as OF
the close of business on February 7,
or 1892, 100000 In excess OF the
amount reported for the last full
business week prior to deposit iasur-
ance.
These figures, which are exclusive
OF Government deposits. show that
net demand deposits climbed s25e,-
100000 in the period, while time de-
posits rose by s33,OOO,00O.
Treasury officials believe that de-
posit insurance. having diSpeIled the
fears that gripped the entire Nation
last Spring. has returned many hun
dreds of millions Of dollars out of
boarding since the first Of the year
Rural Gains Excluded.
1t Is believed also that the increase
mentioned represents only a small
part Of the return new, as lack of
confidence in banks has been shown
to be more peculiar to rural sections,
which are not included in the weekly
statements, than in the large COM
mercial areas.
The increases, Treasury statements
disclose, are not concentrated in any
one section Of the country, but are
spread throughout its length and
breadth. For instance, the Federal
Reserve district Of New York, reports
an increase of $l00,00o,O00 since the
first of the year. while the Chicago
area reports gain of s49,o00,000. In
like manner. Philadelphia points out
gain Of s34 900 900, Boston an up
turn of $29,000,000, Cleveland, $26,-
100000, and the agricultural district
centered in Dallas an increase OF $25-
100000. In fact, all Federal Reserve
districts show a gain with the single
exception of Atlanta, whose reporting
member banks report no change in
deposits between the two dates.
Split Up Predicted.
While the Treasury expects a large
increase in the number of bank ac-
counts, due TO the splitting up OF
large accounts into smaller ones thus
to gain full protection, thus far it
has had no oficial compilation as TO
the extent this is being carried on.
Under the temporary fund now in
existence. all deposits up to s2,5oo are
fully insured; under the permanent
plan to take effect next July, deposits
up to $4,000 will be insured fully;
from $4,000 to $50 1000 will be insured
rs per cent, and over $4,000 will
have so per cent insured
However, it is believed that the
permanent plan will be amended, per-
hapS TO continue the temporary In
surance protection. or a compromise
arranged making $4,000 the maximum
amount TO gain full insurance.

OIL MEN WORRIED
BY TEXAS BATTLE.
Federal Control Receives
Setback From Court
Decision.
Ry the Assoctatsd Press.


TULSA, Okla, February l4.-Al-
though disturbed conditions have be-
come commonplace in the oil indus
try, there we're worried frowns on
executive brows this week as a result
Of new and impending developments.
Federal administration Of the oil in
dustry received a setback In ths East
Texas judicial opinion Of Monday that
held part Of the oil code invalid. An
appeal will be taken to the Supreme
Court Of the United States on the rul-
ing Of Federal Judge Randolph Bryant
that penalties for violations Of the
petroleum code could not be assessed
aainst concerns which had not signed
the code and dealt only In tntrastate
commerce
This ruling was considered by many
oil men as a symptom of the growing
revolt in Texas against curtailment Of
crude oil production.
Fine verbal pyrotechnics we're an
ticipated as the time drew near for
the Texas Railroad Commission to
hold q Statewide proration hearing
February 10.
At that time testimony on market
demand will be taken. This has not
been done since September, when the
Government stepped in TO regulate
oil and assure equable prices for all
divisions Of the $4,000 900 900 in
dustry.
The commission already has in
creased the allowable under State or
der $4,000 barrels above the Federal
ALLEGATION, and there is little hope here
that the commission will stop at this
hgure next Eeek. A substantial ad-
vance is expected.
II this develops, oil men look for a
reduction in prices Of crude oil. Crude
has been around 81 q barrel for some
months.

.|NGOT PRODUCTION
MOUNTS FURTHER
Large Auto Releases Add
Momentum to Steel
Demand.
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, February 14.-Heavy
tin plate specifications supplementing
large releases q automobile steel have
added momentum to current steel de-
mand and ingot capacity has risen
8 points to IL per cent Of capacity,
with further gains in prospect" said
Iron Age today.
The accumulating pressure for
steel" asserted the review, has been
renected In an upward turn in the
Pittsburgh scrap market. which had
recently been reactionary, and has
been accompanied by growing foundry
consumption of pig iron.
With automobile production rapidly
getting back to 1880 levels. manufac-
turers are increasingly aware of the
danger of running short of materials.
In some cases they have posted rep
resentatives at steel plants to see that
they get their share Of the tonnage
coming on the mills.
Pressure Of current steel demand
has been heaviest in the case of mills
rolling wide and highly finished
sheets. These producers in some
cases have asked that all first quarter
specifications be filed so that they
can determine whether any additional
tonnage in current orders can be ac-
cepted for shipment before March 81 {"
The review said that ingot output
had risen points at Pittsburgh, 2
points at Chicago, points in the val
leys, 5 points at Cleveland and IS
points in the Wheeling district.
Growing activity in the industry,
the review commented, will soon be
augmented by tonnage from the rail-
roads" but it added that public con-
struction work lis still disappointingly
small In terms Of tonnage"
The Iron Age composite price for
heavy melting steel scrap has risen
to Sl2.0s ton from $11s2, making
q new high for the year. The 1898
top, reached last August. was sl2.25
q ton.
