Cooperate ?
Take, for.example, recent proposals by the U.S. Depart
ment of Agriculture for increasing fluid milk prices in
the New York-New Jersey marketing area. These proposed
increases are totally unrealistic when one considers the
alarming rate at which farmers are being forced out of
business. Yet some cooperatives have seen fit to support
them on the basis that “anything is better than nothing.”
Eastern Milk Producers, the bargaining co-op with
more than 10,000 dairy farmer members, has never taken
tills attitude. Support of such low increases only serves
to weaken the stand the dairy farmer must take for his
own preservation. The fact is that the dairy farmer doesn’t
need token increases... he needs a realistic priee so he
cap,make a reasonable profit above the cost of produc
tion. Unless he can obtain these increases, he will be
forced out of business.
The time has arrived for the dairy
fanner to stand up and be counted. H
you find your views in agreement with
the position Eastern has taken, contact
your local representative right now—
