This • increase lapplies only to thatportion of the milk supply that goes into the carton or ; bottle trade.. Since :100. pounds of 'milk'. yields 38 'quarts, .thisraw product price. increase . is about the equivalent of one .cent ,per quart at the farm. Dairy 'farmers are no different,, of course, front -Other people in our . society 'today. As businessmen they are, faced C with rising costs •of; production and,as citizens, with rising costs of living.,..

It is the minimum required at this time to enable fluid pro- dicers to stay m business. It , will certainly; not cover the cost. increases ,experienced byall fluid' milk producers. Some examples of these -cost increases in the past :year are presented below. As there • is. no government subsidy on (fluid milk, the price consumers' pay per quart has to cover not only farm . costs of production and transportation to dairies, but the industry costs of labour, pasteurizing, : packaging and distribution. Dairy pro- cessing firms, too, have been confronted with increasing costs. Because of the many economies introduced by dairy -farm- ers an d processors one hour . of - work :-buys more milk now than it .did,in 1949. The average Ontario , wage earner . can buy 8::8 quarts today against &1 .quarts in 1949 'with one hour's wage Thus milk still remains one of the 'homemaker's , best food buys: This advertisement has been eo sponsored by Brute dairy: farmer to acquaint; you with.the noetic pressures that hoc-. essitat� an increase in milk . • . • prt ••..•ee•...N••.•.••••w•••ei••H►e••o.
