Sec. Benson Urges More Consumer
Use of Dairy Products During June
Secretary of Agriculture Ezra
Taft Henson today uiged consum
ers to take advantage of current
plentiful supplies of dairy prod
ucts by buying and serving them
often during June.
“Consumers get outstanding
food value all through the year
when they buy milk and other
dairy foods,” the Secretary said.
“During June, when supplies of
dairy products are at a seasonal
peak, these commodities repre
sent an especially good food buy.”
Dairy industry leaders are spon
soring a nation-wide “June Is
Dairy Month” campaign to en
courage consumption of dairy
foods while they are most plen
tiful Because of this seasonal ab
undance, the U.S. Department of
Agriculture is supporting the in
dustry campaign.
SECRETARY BENSON com
mended dairymen for their aggre
srve efforts to move the abund
ance of dairy products through
good merchandising “The dairy
industry was one of the first seg
ments of the food industry to
recognize the need for more ef
fective merchandising and promo
tion Their June Dairy Month
campaign highlights a year-round
promotional program,” the Secre
tary declared
Milk output in 1958 promises to
sot a new record for the sixth
consecutive year, Secretary Ben
son pointed out. Steady technical
improvements and efficient man
agement by dairymen have helped
increase milk production per cow,
men though the number of cows
in herds throughout the nation
has decreased. The months of
spring - abundance provide the
year’s peak supplies of dairy
foods in June.
“Generous use of dairy foods
makes an excellent nutritional

contribution to the family diet, as
well as providing taste appeal and
variety,” the Secretary said. “All
the dairy products—milk, cheese,
cottage cheese, ice cream, butter,
evaporated milk, dry milk, and
the many dairy specialties such
as sour cream and buttermilk—
have a place in the family’s daily
menu.”
THE SECRETARY NOTED a
new daily food guide “Food For
Fitness” published by USDA nu
tritionists, which stresses the need
for some milk every day for every
bne. Milk is the leading source of
calcium, provides high-quality
protein, riboflavin, vitamin A, and
many other nutrients
“Health, flavor, abundance
these are all excelent reasons why
consumers should make the most
of dairy foods in June,*” Secretary
Benson said. “I hope everyone will
join the dairy industry in its cele
bration of June Dairy Month by
buying and using more milk and
c(her dairy products in family
meals ”
To help support the dairy indus
try 's June campaign, the U.S. De
partment of Agriculture is con
ducting a Special Plentiful Foods
Program on dairy products- Un
der this program, USDA works
with members of the food indus
try and with public informational
media to call attention to the
plentiful supplies and good food
value of all dairy products.
