A new venture, and one expected
to increase, is the handling of grain
grown in the Middle Atlantic states.
Some of this is used in local feed
mixing, but primarily grains are
sresold as service to members.
Feed and grain distribution ac-
counted for 71g6 of the total Eas-
tern States dollar volume; 1870 was
in fertilizer and lime; 10 in farm
supplies; 49o in agricultural chem
icals; SO seeds.
Fertilizer distribution reached
the new all-time high Of $40 ,939, ,567.
The four top grades were 5-10-10,
1O-10-10,- 8-16-16, and the new Is
1910 which made the top four the
year Eastern States introduced it.
More agricultural chemicals were
distributed than in any previous
year-just barely missing the three
million dollar mark with a 1870 in
crease over 1858. During the year,
127 different Foundations were dis
tributed, IL more than in 1858, in
addition to many specific pesticides
mixed to meet specific situations.
Distribution of items classed as
farm supplies total $6,069, ,346, a
new high New items on the list
include poultry equipment, aerosol
paints, steel roofing sheets, and
small tools. Purchases were made
from more than 80 suppliers.
Seeds were distributed to a value
of $4,328,031. The potential of

During the height of the battle

sounded in Houston to summon
more male residents to assist in

with scoops attached, attacked the
drifting snow and did a splendid

Of road started to close again and an
appeal for help to get an expectant
mother to the hospital ahead Of the
stork was received from Mr.. and
Mrs. Jerry Hendon, who reside
about half a mile down a side road
close to the Houston intersection.
The fire siren was sounded again
and men and boys from the town,
many of whom had had little sleep
in 48 hours, reported to the spot
with a win and soon another stran-
ded expectant mother was on the
way to the hospital.
Throughout the 4S hour ordeal,

isolated cases of line overlooking

Friday, when all the area schools
were closed, and phones were in
constant use, there was little to
complain about regarding the
phone service. Electric service was
maintained throughout the storm
with few if any noticeable inter-

Oilmen struggled CALAMITY to
serve their customers and the gas
distributors did likewise.
Kids got big bang out of the
storm and snow and sleds laid to
rest in attic and cellar were res

Bus service, while late, was
maintained and newspapers made
daily deliveries, although some-
times the morning and evening pa
pers were delivered together.
Most meetings, suppers, ETC., were
postponed due to the storm, and
many stores in the towns closed
early both Thursday and Friday.
Many are the reports on the depth
of the snowfall, but the one most
accepted is about 191z inches on the

was bad enough and what made it
worse it was originally scheduled

demonstrated his virileness and
dumped several more. inches of
snow on the Delmarva Peninsula,

was continuing. Winds, however,
were light and while most schools,
organizations had cancelled class

the secondaries, were all open. The

ever, again had his problem, espe-

Eastern States Did
Huge 1859 Business


Total volume of business by pa
irons of Eastern States Farmers
Exchange during 1859 was $685.
130 announced w d. Milsop, gener-
al manager, to the members attend
ing the 42nd annual meeting of the
cooperative in Springfield, Mass,
last Friday.
Business volume exceeded. the
previous year by S2,852,0S0. The
increase was due to the addition Of
egg marketing in New England late
in the spring of 1859, he stated.
The combination of flood, strike,
fire and depressed poultry prices
posed a stern test to the organiza-
ton, but nevertheless it was an
other good year." Milsop said AL
though several supply departments
showed strong increases, the long
strike at the Buffalo and Huron
feed mills caused a setback in feed
distribution. However, distribution
OF feed supplements increased 209o
over 1853.
Patronage refunds from 1859 bus
mess will be lower this year than
last. These refunds-to be mailed
later this spring will total 81, ,559,-
727, sum equal to 1890 of the
total patrons purchases during
1859. the cooperative's treasurer
Miss Mildred Pike told the annual
meeting. She explained that no
patronage refund was earned on
products marketed for patrons in
1859

Davis, of Sterling Junction, Mass,

less than half that for the previous
year. Principally this will be used
for service center expansions and
additions.
During 1859, two new service
centers were built, and some were
enlarged or remodeled. By the end
of the year there were 104 service
centers, including the combination

ened in 1859 at Detroit, Maine.

feed mills and one stationary mill
operated by service centers owned
by Eastern States. The cooperative
now owns 80 mobile units and 81
