reasonable’ load to be
hauled upon application to a
local authority.

because of drought and
economic problems.
Hallowell told Grangers
they would have to look at
marketing and then spoke of
the coming milk promotion
referendum.
He noted that milk
receipts in the Com
monwealth crossed the $1
billion mark and that milk
output in the state is up five
percent m the face of stiff
competition.
The checkoff proposal
being drawn up by the
committee, now in its second
draft, calls for a three
quarters of one percent
checkoff, Hallowell said.
At present milk pnces,
that would be about nine
cents per hundredweight, or
a total of $6 million to $7
million dollars in a
promotion kitty.
That represents 50 percent
more money for promotion
that currently is available.
“Why should consumers
pay $1.09 a liter for colas
when they can get a half
gallon of milk for under $1?”
he asked.
Hallowell also read a
proclamation from the
Governor’s office
congratulating the Grange
on 108 years of service to the
Commonwealth.
Newly elected State Grange Princess is Judy
Pauli, Uniontown, Fayette County; new State
Prince is Dayton D. Mix, Shinglehouse, Potter
County.
“If we are not doing what
you want, it is your fault,”
Hallowell told the Grangers.
“You are supplying the
leadership.”
