kill 500 On Price By HERBERT G. PELKEY COPENHAGEN (AP) The effects of a voluntary sell off of milk cows by farmers in 25 states in an effort to reduce surplus and force an increase in producer prices to 100 per cent of parity "will not be known for a few days yet," a spokesman fo the National Farmers Organization said Thursday. Frank Simmons of Copenhagen, Lewis County vice president of the organization, said that in a 13-county upstate area alone more than 500 milk cows and about 100 calves were taken to a Tuesday and Wednesday by NFO members in an "Each One, Sell One" campaign. Although each member of the giant farmer organization had been asked to sell one of his milk producing cows for slaughter, Simmons said he did not know how the movement was going outside of the state. Simmons, a dairyman, said the upstate slaughter represented the loss of about 5 million pounds of milk to the market this year, plus future losses because of calves which would have produced later.

In Herkimer County, NFO officials said the increased parity "would cost the consumer some more money but not a lot." The organization is seeking an increase from $4.80 a hundredweight (46.5 quarts), the average blend price paid during 1966, to $5.73 a hundredweight, or full parity. The blend price in the New York-New Jersey Milkshed last month was $5.13 a hundredweight, about 84 per cent of Parity is a support standard set by the U.S. Department of Agriculture as the measure of the full value compared with the price at a selected base period. "We feel we have crossed the first hurdle in proving the farmer is capable of handling his own product and being his own businessman," Simmons said. a spokesman for the'Northeast Dairy Cooperative Federation said it was difficult tojonake an assessment of the Mpact of the.action because of atfack of the same time, he indicated the estimated loss of 5 million pounds, of milk, about 10,000 pounds per cow, probably some cows have been known to produce 30,000 pounds annually, the national average is 8,500 pounds per cow.

Assuming all 500 cows slaughtered were "average producers, this would be a little more than 4 million pounds, or .035 per cent of the 11 billion pounds of milk produced last year in the milkshed. "I don't think a dairyman would take his best cows to the slaughter house," the dairy spokesman said. Another indication of the impact can be seen in tank truck shipments of milk to New York City, of which there "are about 200; a day. The average tank truck carries 50,000 pounds of milk, about 25,000 quarts. Tjh the 4 million pounds represented by the 500 cows would mean only a loss of eight quarts from' each truck.

if I 4 4 tt ft 4 ft 4 4 4 1 Rambling With Roy I I I 4 Tony from Wheel tri 4 4 4 4 Woman Told to By ROY GALLINGER It's been a long time but maybe some of the old-time readers who still live in Auburn, will remember. I can only tell the story and perhaps some older reader may supply the names. The subject of this narrative u'as an old-time boxer who had lost both legs in a railroad accident. Even though confined to a wheel chair he was quite popular with those who knew him both before and after his accident. He was a pretty good boxer--so good that after his trouble he started a rage of amateur boxing among the teen-age boys around the city.

It seems as if his name was "Tony." Perhaps it wilj come to me before I finish this story. Well, somebody gave Tony a little newsstand down by the railroad. I even think that the stand belonged the railroad and was a foremer ticket office of some sort. It was a little place thoroughly "rail- roadish" with darkened varnish on the woodwork, a badly worn floor, smoky windows and a squeaky door. There was a little pot-bellied stove in the place and three or four old chairs such as one used to see around railroad waiting rooms years ago.

But three or four of Tony's friends passed the hat and with the few dollars received managed to get enough stock to get Tony started. The yard men on the road him, and he was soon able to build up a little stock of tobacco and candy. Tony never lacked for company. He was at one time a pretty good boxer and there was a story that at one time he had "taken on" the great "Jim FitzSimmons," whoever he was. But Tony became famous among the boys, every one of whom was walking around flexing his fingers and shadowboxing with everyone he met.

The fever ran so high that the theater manager at the vaudeville houseused to put on two "two-rounders" every Thursday night with Tony as the referee from his wheelchair on the stage. Tony's advice was always sought after and there were usually one or two hopefuls sparring in the back of the little shop. Tony took no sides, but coached both. It got so that Tony would demonstrate his blows from his chair, and now and then a young boxer would get a clip that didn't exactly feel like a ball of cotton. Then someone suggested shadow boxing through a window, but after breaking a couple of panes of glass, that was dropped as unprofitable.

One day a horse-drawn hearse figured in an accident. As the old vehicle was being torn down behind of the livery stable, one of the kids had an idea, The side panel of glass was almost a half inch think, and five feet long! Jf that heavy glass could be obtained for free and fitted into the back door of Tony's shop--oh, what a shadow-boxing place! Tony could sit in his chair inside and the boy would be outside. A railroad carpenter did the job and boys chipped in to buy him a plug of tobacco. It was the greatest success I have ever seen! Tony would put on the gloves and wheel his chair up close the door. A young hopeful would likewise get into the gloves and go outside.

There they "pounded" one another, yet no one ever got hurt. Tony could demonstrate an "uppercut" or any other special blow and he taught many lessons. That thick glass could take a lot of abuse. Tony's blows showed great strength and skill, but there were no bloody noses or cracked skulls--and Tony was busy all the time. Auburn become a "boxing" town, all from the work of a dedicated man who had no legs but a wonderful.

way of teaching. I wonder if that old glass panel from a wrecked hearse is still there. It had served a grand purpose but is probably gone--just as Tony is long gone, but there are still those around who will remember him, and who have punched at him through that old glass panel.
