Milk Substitutes
Off Pa. Markets
Fluid imitation milk and filled
substitutes for milk have been
withdrawn fiom most Pennsyl
vania markets, Sidney E. Bar
nard. Extension dairy specialist
at Pennsylvania Slate University,
pointed out Tuesday at a meet
ing in Lancaster.
Speaking to members of the
Southeastern Pennsylvania Ap
proved Inspectors Association,
Bai nard said the reasons for dis
continuing the sale of substitut
es were primarily due to unac
ceptable flavor and quality at a
price comparable to that of milk
products.
The Penn State specialist point
ed out that the dairy industry
must provide consumers milk
with excellent flavor and keeping
quality. This can be done by
proper rotation in the store case
and maintaining temperatures
below 40 degrees Fahrenheit.
Here's
The Way
To Make
More Money
Above
Feed Cost!
Dairy feeds at dif
ferent prices do not
have the same pro
ductive value. You
usually get what you
pay for. Lower-priced
dairy feeds often pro
duce less milk and
make less profit.
RED ROSE DAIRY FEEDS are the feeds you should use.
These feeds (available in many protein levels) enable a cow
to produce up to her inherited capacity. In the long run you
can make more money above feed cost with high quality
Red Rose Dairy Feeds. The price per ton is relatively unim
portant. What is important are the results! If you use sup
plements, again Red Rose has one suited to your need.
Be determined to earn more money from your dairy herd
this season. Decide to use Red Rose Dairy Feeds. So, why
not call your dealer, now.

Pcnnsjlvnnia’s bear hunters
i eported harvesting 203 hitiins
(lining the 1060 season, the
Pennsylvania Game Commission
reported this week.
The 1069 harvest represents
an increase over the 218 bears
taken in 1968, but there was a
six-day season two years ago
compared to a two-day season
this past year.
The Game Commission esta
blished a short season in 1969
after an apparent decline in the
bruin population in the north
central part of the state, the
bear’s primary range.
In 1969 Pike County led the
state in bear harvest with 45,
while 30 were reported taken in
Clinton County and 28 in Ly
coming County. In 1968 Camer
on and Elk Counties each pro
duced 21 bears and McKean
had 20 to top the list
