MAY SEND TO CREAMERIES, Iebron, March 14.—An effort to solve the troubles of milk producers in eastern Connecticut is being made by asking farmers to join local creamery associations. On April 1, according to announcement today, the price to be paid farmers for milk will be lowercd. In Colchester and towns hereabouts about 30,000 quarts of milk is shipped each day to the Providence and Boston markets. If this milk is diverted to creameries the marketing problem will be tled for the individual farmer, ac- cording to the argument of those ra- voring the plan. At present it costs $1.03 to transport ten 10-quart cans | of milk from here to Providence.
