Each nation should have food sovereignty and be free to imple ment policies that work for their own farmers. Thirdly, while Bailey is correct that import issues are complex, that is no excuse not to explain them in lay terms. The tanker load illustrations attempt to do this. No one making these illus trations has claimed that all of this milk is arriving in tankers. The illustrations concern how County Farm Credit Office, Chambersburg.

Actually, to say that we don’t import tanker loads of milk is incorrect. A sig nificant number of tanker-loads of farm milk do cross the border from Canada. One thing is clear: dairy farm ers are suffering unjustifiably and are hurting too deeply to be paci fied by lame excuses. Hopefully Bailey will be sincere in his re search. But until farmers get a just and adequate price for their milk, there will likely continue to be “scathing editorials.” Gerald Carlin, Dairy Fanner Meshoppen Conference, Holiday Inn, Lees burg, Va., thru Feb. 8, (703) 737-8978.
