to get maximum efficiency and
greater net returns
“The one dark cloud on the
dairy horizon is the continuous
decline in fluid milk consump
tion per person in this country.
Dairymen have a good market
ing system with a favorable
price for milk, but more dairy
men should direct more effort
toward selling more milk to con
sumers Producers have a re
sponsibility in promoting the sale
of fluid milk. High production
with accurate records are im
portant, but should be accom
panied with producer-supported
milk production.
“Many changes will be made in
DHIA Testing in the next few
years; the introduction of the
central testing laboratory is just
One current example We trust
and have confidence that these
changes will be for the good of
the dairymen and will continue
to provide an accurate record
keeping system better than we
have ever experienced.”
