on one of the higher banks near Seaforth's Main
Street. (Staff Photo)

It referred to the scene of the

town was walking along the
street. In order to preserve her
best china she scooped the dishes
into her skirt and was carrying
them to safety.
She was met by'a gentleman of
the town who exclaimed "Mrs.
Brown, 1 can see your ankles."
She immediately dropped her
skirt, breaking her dishes. What
modesty!

Ontario dair farmers who
produce milk for table use are to
receive an additional $1.16 per
hundredweight for their milk,.
'effectWe April 1.
In announcing the increase in
returns to the Province's 8,500
fluid milk producers, the Chair-
man of the Ontario Milk Market-
ingEoard, George R. McLaughlin
stated that for several years the
Board has set the price to its
producers on an . economic
formula,
"Recently. available informa-
tion on production costs," he
said, "indicates that milk produ-
cers require an immediate
increase in price to offset cost
increases and bring milk produ-
cers' incomes closer to parity with
those of industrial workers. The
base value of the formula has
been revised to bring it more in
lide with current cost and income
conditions and more nearly
feflectS the Villetirit of 'returns
required to provide adequate
incomes to milk 'producers."
Mr. McLaughlin also said that
the new price levels should
guarantee consumers adequate
milk supplies for the months

ahead.
"The current values of the
economic formula," Mr.
McLaughlin said, "indicate that
the price of milk should be in the
order of three cents per quart
higher than now exists.,
The increase in 'the prodUcer
price is about 10-1/2 per cent.
The total increase to the con-
sumer will be three cents per
quart, plus whatever amount the
dairies,and stores add on to cover
their requirements. There is no
government regulation in Ontario
controlling the level of consumer
price and therefore, the total
amount of the increase, in
addition to the producer portion,
is dependent on the forces of
competition.
"For this reason," Mr.
McLaughlin said, "we do not
know what the final consumer
price increase will be."
