At least it seems that way in Order 2 where in April of this year, for the first time since August 1978 you produced less milk than the same month ot the previous year. At that time four years ago it lasted only one month and you were back to increasing produc tion. This year, it was the same story with May milk shipments up nine million pounds over last year and June up 14 million pounds. However, even though you’re back on the track of increasing You can equip your Kubota LlB5 with a plow, cultivator, disc harrow, rotary tiller, earth-moving and excavating implements. With this Kubota, you’ll have grounds for compliments. UKUBOTH We’re looking for work.

The first six months in Order 2 this year, shipments increased about 70 million- pounds or 1.2 percent higher than 1981. That’s a lot less than the 198 million pounds or 3.6 percent that you jumped in the first six months of 1981 compared to 1980. No doubt the pace is slackening but you still haven’t turned the corner. Another corner Even if you didn’t turn the comer on milk production, at least you did it on price last month.
