Federal Order #2 specificaN

low pirce classification.
Eastern Piesident Howaul
Meinll stated emphatically,
“If you ai e going to leplace
fiesh whole milk with stenle>
whole milk then that milk

centage of oui milk goes into
manufactui mg with a con
tinued loweung of blend

Let’s look at last yeai’s
farmer puces in ‘the New

weight and the manufactuung
puce (Class MI) avei aging
$3 16, the farmer’s puce av
eraged $421 pei hundred
weight for the yeai If Class
1111 replaces more of Class I,
then farmeis prices will be
lowered still fui'thei
He pointed out further that
one of the biggest threats to
the dairymen’s fresh fluid
