$23 Million Paid To Dairymen
In Lancaster County Last Year
Lancaster County dairy
farmers were paid over 23
million dollars for milk they
produced during 1959, accor
ding to the latest survey of
the Pennsylvania Crop Re
porting service which pegged
county milk income at $23 -
290,000.
The area’s milk income
was hailed by Eugene Pearce
President of the Pennsylvan
ia Association of Milk Deal
ers, as contributing a major
role in strengthening the lo
cal economy. Pearce paid tri
bute to the county’s milk in
dustry and said, “About 64,-
000 cows were milked each
day in 1959 in Lancaster Co.
They helped push Pennsyl
vania into fourth place in
world production of milk!
Last year the state produced
over 330 million dollars
worth of milk ”
Pearce said that despite
Pennsylvania’s historical
fame as an industrial giant
with million dollar steel and
coal industries, the state is
still one of America’s agri-
cultural mainstays. He back
ed up his statement by point
ing out that Pennsylvania’s
farmers have a large and
convenient market of eleven
million people within its own
borders, and that state farm
ers meet a large part of the
resulting demand for food
stuffs.
“Last year,” Pearce said,
“Pennsylvania farmers mar
keted over 774 million dol
lars worth of food, with milk
valued at $331,01&,000 being
poured into the state’s econ
omy and accounting for al
most half the tbta l farm in
come”.
One special feature of the
Keystone dairy industry is
the Milk Control Commission
a state agency that controls
prices paid dairy farmers
and charged consumers for
milk An idea of its worka-
bility can be gained by look
ing at the most recent Fluid
Milk and Cream Report of
the U. S. Department of Ag
riculture. It shows that in
July, American dairy farm
ers were paid an average of
$5 34 per hundred pounds or
milk, then sold to consumers

for an average price of 26.1 c
per quart.
During the same month,
Pennsylvania dairy farmers
were paid an average of $5.-
86, or 52c more; while con
sumers paid 25.8 c or 3/10 of
a cent less per quart accord
ing to the federal govern
ment’s publication.
“Pennsylvania’s -cows pro
duce more milk per cow than
the national average 7120
pounds average for our state,
compared to 6630 for the na
tion ” said Pearce. And our
milk processing plants are
second to none, because of
the extremely high industry
and state health standards”
Pearce said there are over
600 milk dealers in Pennsyl
vania, and about 38,000 dairy
farmers who milk the state’s
928,000 dairy cows. He point
ed out that dairy cows can
be found in every county m
the state, including one coun
ty whose boundries duplicate
that of the state’s largest city
Philadelphia. Pearce said the
Crop Reporting Service
showed 200 cows are still be
ing milked each day in the
Quaker City.
