Local Farmers Sing The Blues As Food Prices Rise
Data from the Agriculture Department and farm leaders show Frederick County farmers are dissatisfied with farm prices as retail food costs climb. Farm Bureau president J Austin Younkins cites milk price hikes and limited farmer gains, while Grange chief Bernard Remsburg notes prices are out of line and many farmers have sold out. Farmers see retail gains outpace farm returns over decades.

Sanitary district costs hinge on Valley elementary school
Jefferson sanitary district funding depends on a $36,000 contribution from the board of education, 10 percent of the $332,000 total. Lawrence A. Dorsey, vice-president of the county board, says the district is feasible only with the new Middletown Valley school, which will be built on the south end of Jefferson and whose deed is awaited before finalizing district creation. Eric Dannemann of Lit Compton, RI, will captain Columbia University's lightweight crew next year, following his father Henry who rowed in the 1929 Poukeepsie win.
