The Consumer's Viewpoint

Let us look at it from the consum- er's standpoint Is he really beneﬁt- ed by the fact that there are 160.000 cows not being milked in this couli- try because the equivalent of their production is imported from abroad? Furthermore, a decrease in winter

summer production of butter is scarc- ely suificient for the demand and this results in higher prices in the flush season than would obtain if i the industry as a whole was adjusted to the total demand for the year. I have made no mention of the I feed situation. which is highly abnor- mal this year owing io the wide- spread drought both east and West.

for manufacturing purposes last win- ter, what will it be this winter with feed at least $5 and. perhaps $10 per tone more?

We must decide whether we wish to have the dairy industry contri- bute tnwards the paying of our bills abroad or whether we intend that it be a source of such bills.

Milk and cream to be consumed in fluid form continue to bo produced to fill the available market. lncausc: (a) They cannot be imported and (b) this fact together with sanitary restrictions maintains the price far enough above that received for milk to be made into butter or cheese to be proﬁtable. This winter many city markets will pay from 80 cents to 91» cents per pound butter-fat for Wiiibiﬂ‘ milk, while the dairyman who has not the advantage of that markctl will be getting 44 cents or even less.

Present conditions indicate:

1. An import requirement of $50,- 000,000 lbs. of butter next year.

2- The total extinction of the fav- orable trade balance in dairy PILO- ducts in three years or less.

3. The ultimate cessation of cheese exports also. i
