Phew! It’s almost a relief
that this Jun 6 Dairy Month is
nearly over. I don’t think my
blood pressure can take too
much more of the emotional
involvement the month has
been triggering.
Oh, don’t get me wrong!
I’m a dedicated supporter
and user of pure, real dairy
items: milk at every meal,
butter, cheese, sour cream,
cream cheese and quality ice
cream. Not to mention
splurging on a favorite -
banana splits, topped with
gobs of real whipped cream.
But what’s bugging me are
the imitations riding along
on the dairy month
promotional push.
One local supermarket
featured a full page of
“Dairy Month” items. Know
what they ara pushing?
Three kinds of margarine on
sale, advertised in great big
print, with not a mention of
the product butter. Another
carried a push for shoppers
to buy a popular brand of
imitation sour cream. Then,
during this past month, I
read several times of a new
imitation chocolate milk
product, based on coconut
fat, chomping into the dairy
product dollar. They’re
about as close to an
authentic cow product as I
am to resembling Farah
Fawcett-Majors - ‘ and
believe me. that’s so far that

you’d need a UFO to get
there.
Know what else bugs me?
Dairy farmhouse
refrigerators harboring oleo
margarine, with the farmer
owners complaining that
they’re not being paid
enough for their milk.
Restaurants that serve
“shakes,” carefully omitting
the milk prefix, bug me too.
And so do coffee whiteners,
anywhere, anytime, by
anyone.
They’re all trading on the
years of goodwill, great
taste, and super nutrition
built up by the real thing,
coining from a genuine four
legged cow.
Okay, that’s enough
sermon; now for the mor-
Clothing Outlook
Clothing prices are ex
pected to go up in the first
nine months of 1977, but
probably not as much as the
prices of most other goods,
according to Greta C. Vair,
Extension home economist
at Penn State University.
Last year the average
consumer spent $345 on
clothing and shoes. That’s an
increase of 5.2 per cent, or
about $lB per person, over
what was spent in 1975. A
similar rate of increase is
expected for 1977.

few off-the-top-of-my-head
promotion suggestions?
Our local school district
now offers chocolate milk
with lunches to students, and
has dramatically cut down
on the previous 10-15 gallons
daily of unopened white milk
throwaways. But while milk
is better - most children eat
too many sweets already.
White milk cartons ar
tistically designed to
resemble little toy village
buildings would make neat
reusable toys with small
trucks, cars, and people
when the original contents
had been consumed. And it
