     end dried skim milk will cost the 
     
     Canadian consumer less.

     be that the farmer who delivers 
     
     @feam for butter only will get 
     
     the same return as last year. 
     
     However, if he delivers milk for 
     
     Gheese making he will receive 
     
     @ small increase in his return.
