is a nation of organization, and
that all other lines were doing bus
mess through organization, hence it
is necessary that the farmer do bus
mess the same way. Although a
farmer may be successful in his own
work, there is someone else in the
United States who has more to do
with his success than he has him
self. He advised them to continue
the farm organizations, so that the
farmer can to some degree control
his own prices. He stated that the
Farm Bureau favored reciprocal
trade treaties and that the fair way
would be to have parity of prices
on farm products.
Entertainment features included
Evelyn Hill, All singer and tap
dancer, with special numbers of
merit; Frank and Esther, musical
and comedy duo, clever entertain
ers; as well as song numbers by the
Raymond-Ashley All girls. Special

BUTTER RECEIPTS
ON STEADY RISE
First Two Days Of Week
Saw Improvement In
ProductiOn-Price Gains

AS the butter market dipped to
a new low for a three year period,
then started a slight comeback,
cream receipts at local creameries
for the first two days Of this week
rose steadily.
June 7th when New York extra
quotations on carload butter prices
dipped to 24h cents, a three year
low for butter prices was recorded.
In June, 1885, a similar price was
recorded. Since the 7th prices have
been rising slowly, reached this
week nearly 26 cents.
Monday and Tuesday of this
week, local creamery men reported,
were two of the best days for cream
receipts. Monday was one of the
biggest days. Tuesday when Farm
Bureau picnic and payment of Soil
Conservation checks brought sever
al thousand farmers into the city,
one creamery estimated days re-
ceipts at double over an average
day.
Tuesdays business 1t was thought
would not affect receipts the re-
mainder of the week. The increase
marked up for Tuesday was thought
to be from farmers without the
patrons list here.
In the meantime Minnesota and
North Dakota launched a drive to
rid the country of surplus of but
ter and dairy products that is bear
ing prices downward. The month
Of June 10th to July 10th has been
set aside as Dairy Products month,
to stimulate the use of butter and
other dairy products. Tuesday but
ter in storage was just double the
poundage over a year ago.

provisions must be made by each
individual Scout in the camporee.
Highlight of the stay was Sat-
urday's excursion which took the
Scouts across the Green Trail, a
corduroy track that leads across
swamp and through forest. Along
the hike they viewed the Head
waters, the Beaver dams, they
overlooked the country side from
the heights of a forest ranger
station. Interesting was their side
trip to view a bald eagles nest

are as much as eight feet across,

Hail Threatened

Hail, sweeping in with driving

arily Tuesday evening fine stands Of
small grain, even as farmers this
week prepared to move into hay
fields for the first harvest.
Rising suddenly, after the warm

clouds came out of the west, spilled
rain down in a few minutes in gal
Ions. Hail fell for only few min
utes and it is believed did little
damage to the young crop.
Many farmers expect to go into
well-filled hay fields this week or
early next week. Hay returns this
year are expected to be the biggest
in years. One farmer reported that

Health Department Gives Esti-
mate of MaryIand's Population

The estimated population of Mary
land, according to the State Depart
ment of Health is 1,777,9O5, showing
an increase of some $4,000 over Jan
uary, 1887.
The estimate was prepared by the
Bureau of Vital Statistics under the
direction of DR.. A. W, Hedrich, chief
of that bureau, in accordance with ac-
cepted statistical procedure, by assum-
ing that the annual increase since the
United States Census of 1880 was the
same as that between 1920 and 1880.
Until the next Federal census is
taken, all estimates of population will
be subject to change, but it was stated
that rough estimates are better for
some purposes than none.
The estimate gives Garrett county a
population of 2O,093, an increase of
% over the previous period. Allegany's
population was estimated at SCAT.
The figures for Baltimore City were
8G2,059, with the total figures for the
counties of Maryland 915,84G.
