Fluid Milk
Surplus Directed
To Separators
The northwestern area
reported milk production
steady with last week at
the high spring level.
As a result of the high
production surplusses were
in excess of bottling needs
and a heavy surplus was di
verted to separators for fluid
cream needs, to churns, to
driers or to cheese mfgrs.
Bottling demand improved
as schools reopened and was
reported fair-to good. Whole
sa'e prices for bottling quali
ty milk in New York was
unchanged at $4 75 to $4 85
per 40 quart unit.

DEXTROPEP
Q \
Again
Offered
SAVES MONEY because it is a concentrated pre
servative. Recommended use only 50 lbs. per
ton of silage.
ADDS FEEDING VALUE to the silage because it
contains over 80% total digeslable nutrients.
PRESERVES THE NATURAL NUTRIENTS in
the grass by reducing run off because one
part corn oil meal absorbs six parts water.
