WET SOLIDS: F. 0.8. producing plants: Northeast - 1.0000- 1.0350 Milk production ranges from higher in Florida and other Gulf Coast States, to a little lower in the northernmost areas. Cooler weather and the addition of cows to herds are cited for the jump in milk output in Florida. This week, Florida handlers imported about 57 loads and most of those were brought in early in the week. There were no imports late in the week. In New England, New York, and the Mid dle Atlantic areas, milk output is mostly steady and fluid milk supplies range from relatively tight to fully adequate. Demand for Grade A milk for Class I needs is generally steady, but ranges from slow to im proved. Some schools were closed for Veteran's Day and other states are having two-day teacher conferences which are disrupting school lunch milk bottling. Diversions of surplus milk to manufacturing channels are limited in the South east aojl abqu( steady elsewhere. orai/is/if 14 st 7 ti at at t ta it at a • it as so 7 t 4 at at 4 it it at t t it aa at t is at a? s it i? 7 <m ww jot joi» ipo oo oo* ov ijibtl Opu LIS7 - U/13/97 €220 itofitf XTtrtft 09 18 40 6110 6176 6267 Stochastic Dirtofclvul indicator— Day 09 14 20 Day 09 14 20 Sto 94.34 71.43 76.6 t ADX 20.02 20.95 21.13 %k 55.56 51.14 56.42 -DI 22.0 S 24.47 25.76 td 42.76 46.39 49.34 +DI 29.97 26.41 24.09 ——Mlativ* Itraafth 09 14 20 58.95 52.76 48.03 uv» CUD* - cm 1“ BEMM IM7 ““-STmS j at* Hoviaa own n 11/21/17 s ! i —i r— -1* But Movna teiwfim > , ■ , ' , ■ . ’■l, - ! 1 ::! !|i j ui ■i■ |! . 1 . 1 i • ! i ;i; 11 M ! |i ! j: i 1 ,! i ; : . . i-■! i i ' 1 'Mil!I i ■ i ! , i . : * " i 11 :' f ; s 1 i ( ; ■ : ' •; 1 i: «#, ■ n 1 ' . ■■ i ! | i.ft l ! i tv i , , ■ , I i I i Hfi .<,;‘ i , ' > I ; i i I < 1 < ■ , . . 1 1 fl !< ! | 5 >’.!

The condensed skim market is quite good. Prices are steady to lower and demand is often reported as good. Some loads are moving greater dis tances to fill demand. Although not unheard of, it is unusual for November's Class 111 milk prices to be above Class 11. Therefore, prices of condensed skim moving to Class II customers are often higher than loads moving to Class HI users. The fluid cream market is firm. Suppliers are tight and prices unchanged to higher. Demand seemed to improve after the CME butter prices did not change last week. Multiples are often higher, particularly as the week pro gressed. Ice cream output is seasonally slower because of the high cost of cream/butterfat. Some producers have switched to other products and others are using alternatives in their formula tions. Cream cheese and sour cream production is holding up fairly well. Although prices for cream are very high, they do have orders that have to be filled. Egg nog production is gearing up in more plants. Churning activity is steady to heavier. Some butter makers are looking for more cream and offering very cojnpeljtive prices M I *fUL 74 Mm DLia ■ VOL i 0 IBBH a « 000 t/U 76 VOL • 0 ISNN I BOOM
