'Secretary Freeman stated ‘While this overall increase in milk consumption appears to be smaller than the increase in population, it does indicate that the sh irp decline m per capita consumption of a year ago has been slowed down “This improvement is en couraging. but it does net sig mf\ that the end is m fright to the problem of dairy sur- Milk production is still running strongly ahead of consumption and the Com modity Credit Cornoranon is accumulating dairv products considerably taster than they can he'used. “While three months is too short a period to show a con clusive trend, the current in crease is a gratifvmg indicat ion th it American consumers rccogmre milk and dairy pro ducts as essential components ol a healthc nutritious diet "Since- the National Con ference on Milk ard .Nutrition in Tan nan, th*.

Careful formulation of our modestly priced Dari-Pa k Pellets has paid off •- - they’re still growing in popularity! ANOTHER Farm Bureau FIRST. On this date we announced the installation of the First Sprout-Waldxon ‘’Molasses Blending Device” o« our pellet mill - - - this was the first unit of this typer installed in Lan caster County. With this new “Molasses Blender” W can thoroughly blend up to 200 pounds of molasses per ton of pellets - - - au>£ iust sprqyed on the outside WE’VE CHANGED Dari-Pak to Dari-Pak “A”. More and more research reports show a real danger of Vitamin “A v deficiencies in dairy cattle diets Why? Because increased grain feeding (and this trend will continue to grow) means less hay consumption and therefore less natural Vitamin A in the ration. Also, increased, amounts of nitrogen applied to legumes tends to interfere with the conversion of carotene to Vitamin “A”. 14% DARI-PAK Coarse Texture 14% DARI-PAK Pellets 16% DARI-PAK Coarse Texture 16% DARS-PAIK Pellets 36% MILKMAKER SUPPLEMENT Start Today...
