Announcement of the $4.00 guarantee is expected from Ot- tawa within the next, week or _so. The guarantee would be for ~$4.00 per hundredweight f.o.b. the dairy plant. In this prov- ince- it cost an average of 35 cents per hundred pounds last year to transport the milk from the farm to the plant, the cream- ‘ery or cheese - factory. This would mean that the $4.00 guar- “antee f.o.b. the Lory would act- ually mean a net price to the cording to E. W. Adams, prov- incial dairy superintendent. This would be 73 cents per hundredweight more than the Island dairyman received last year when the average net price to the dairyman was ee cents per 100 pounds. | SEES DECLINE . After talking to other’ dairy- men from various parts of Canada and fellow members of ;the advisory committee, Mr. | Dewar came ‘home with the idea that the decline in the supply of Canadian milk will continue’ to decrease. The situation is particularly acute in Ontario, €. a_ sev- ere shortage of capable help is forcing many @airy farmers to advertise their herds, Mr. Dewar was told.
