Milk a drink for the elite?
IMitor Why sing to liolsteini to' increase production when
dairy farmers are producing-too much now?
This comment from a dairy farmer who read last
week's column. He maintains the milk producers are
pricing themselves out of business'. He does not know
what to do about it.
"We cannot stay in business and make a decent liv-
ing if we continue to get the same money for our pro-
duct," he said. "We are heavily subsidized by the go-
vernment n 'If prices continue'to rise as the cost of
_production creases—and that is what our price is bas-
ed on—people will simply stop drinking milk. In spite
of the m ney sp nt by the dairy associations to promote
it, people tvz entually find a substitute." • -
I can think an° drink I enyoy more than a cool glass
of milk. . • '
At the somehow, the complaints from consumers
about the regular price hikes don't do a thing to increa-
se its popularity: More people scream louder when milk
goes up than when liquor goes up, mind you, and
there's no doubt about the lack of protein' inbooze.
It's a mystery to me 'why the dairy business doesn't
do more about new products. The only innovation I ha-
ve seen in the last decade is the rise in consumption of
yogurt. That is only because too many people in this
country-aretoo-fatand-feel-a--yogurtitmthis better-for—
them, not because the manufacturers have sp uch
something in between two per cent and skim? Is this
possible? Something with .a milky flavor but with less
butterfat?,
And why do dairy people continue,to measure milk
by_hutterfat content? This does nothing to promote the
product in a fat-conscious nation. Can't milk quality be
measured some other way?
What about ultra-high-teinperature processing'
(UHT)? This is a method of treating milk at the dairy
which prevents it from turning sour for up to six
months.
How much simpler it would be to transport milk from
place to place if you knew it would not sour. How much
easier it would be to store and sell it in stores and su-
perniarkets. No refrigeration? Why; the supermarkets;„,
would promote the be-japers, out of it because they
could-dispense with. all these fancy—and expensive--
coolers!
Some of my Europehn friends have told me about a
product they call fermented milk. Which. wrinkles my ,
nose. But they say it is extremely popular in some of
the Communist bloc countries, particularly in the
U.S:S.R. If properly promoted, perhaps this is another
product the dairy-industry should be looking at,
Maybe some of these ideas are crazy. Maybe the 'big-
shot-consultants engaged-by the-Ontario-Milk- Market-
ing Board or the dairy council' of Canada have already
investigated.
If they haVe, they have not informed the general
public. They're spending money on moustaches—they
should be called milktakes, anyway—perhaps they
could spend a few dollars to let us know *here their re-
search is leading them.
,Or maybe they're waiting for the day when milk be-
comes a drink only for the elite as predicted 10 years
ago.
When it becomes too expensive for any but the rich
people on Snob Hill.

Why hasn't more research` been done 'to improve the
spreadability of butter fresh out of the refrigerator?
I'm sure something could be done yet little or no re-
search, to thy knowledge, has been fostered in the last
few years.
Nothing is more irritating to butter-lovers than try-
ing to spread hard butter.
And what about a saw-off in the dairy business bet-
