mm r.-V fit* * Should Milk Be Raised? The 'government .is now supporting the price of butterfat at 5# cents a poifad and the price bf manufacturing milk at $3.15 a hundred pounds. Should the price support level be raised ? Tttis question is of much concern Lo about one million farmers in United States who produce most of our milk, as well as to the many millions of families that buy milk' and other dairy products. About one-half (54 per cent) of all Illinois farms sell some dairy products, but on many farms dairying is a small side line. The sale of milk and butterfat last year brought Illinois farmers 175 million dollars, or about 8'Vfc per cent of their total' income. The sale of dairy products brought Illinois farmers i 175 million dollars, or about | per cent of their total income, i The sale of dairy products . brought U.S. farmers 4.4 billion dollars, or 14 per cent of Lhfeir gross cash income. Consumer Expenditures. A typical family of four persons spends about $200 a year for dairy products. About two-thirds of this amount goes for fluid milk and cream. Pi ices of milk are lower than most dairymen would like, but slightly higher than consumers generally are able and willing to pay. hrhis year the government's net purchases of dairy products in order to support prices wili amount to about 4 per cent of the total output of milk. Marketing Costs. Marketing costs generally take about 54 cents of each dollar the consumer spends for fluid milk 'and other dairy products. Labor and other distribution costs . vary widely from City to 'city, being nearly twide as high in some cities as in others. Uses Of Milk. About 46 per cent of all milk is sold to the consumer as fluid milk somewhat lower thsui'ice cream. About 11 per cent of all ^riilk is used for cheese, which is valuable mainly for its protein. Principal compfetihg protein fooffii are beef, veal, pork, lamb, poultry, eggs and fish. Per capita consumption of cheese averaged 5% pounds before the war and has been around 7% pounds in the past few years. Will the consumer Pay More ? Higher price supports for dairy products would probably benefit dairy farmers in the short run. But higher prices would also encourage more farmers to stay in the milk business and would help to sell more of the products that compete with butter, ice cream and cheese. The consumer is paying for price supports at the present level without much complaint. But he would probably not be willing to pay higher prices for butter and other dairy products and to pay out more in taxes fo^ price supports at tfte same time. LEGAL S*rATE OF ILLINOIS) ss.

Nov. 24 - Dec. 2-9 1954) ILLINOIS SENDS 200.000 CARE XMAS PACKAGES OVERSEAS Illinois' goal in the CARE food crusade of special packages has been set at 200,000 packages this year, it was announced by Miss Martha L. David, CARE representative for the midwest. Last year, Miss David noted, one-sixth of all the special Christinas packages containing siirplus food (litst year's campaign was known as "Operation Reindeer") were sent from Illinois. "This year," Miss David said, "Hliri6is has been asked to take the lead again for the entire country with its goal of 200,000 packages ($100,000 at $1 per egjsry two packages)." „ ** The contents of the special $1 Christmas packages are surplus food given to CARE by the Foreign Operations Administration and each package will contain between *13 to 15 pounds of such food items as rice, butter, Ijeans, flour, milk powder, cheese, shortening, cottonseed oil and beef and gravy. All 1,227,500 packages will be distributed to hungry children and needy families in thirty-two countries of Europe, South Amferica and Asia. The recipients will be selected on the basis of greatest need by teams of overseas welfare workers in cooperation with the CARE overseas staff. Because it is surplus food, CARE cannot accept names and addresses of prospective recipients with contributions. "Actually," Miss Dfevid pointed out, "this means that needy people who never before received a CARE package, will now be given one by a new American friend." The recipient will know who his American friend is because the donor's najne and address will accompany each package along with a message of friendship and Cbiistmas cheer. Every contribution of $1 sent to: CARE, CHICAGO" (Midwest headquarters for CARI?) will send two huge packages or the equivalent Of 28 pounds of food abroad for Christmas. "This is truly sharing our bountiful surplus in the American spirit of generosity," Miss David said. "No better way to promote international friendship and good will could possibly be found at the small cost of $1," Miss D&vid said as she urged everyone who can spare $1 or more to send it directly to: "CARE, CHICAGO." want Ads, Bring Results SHOP AT HOME densed milk.

Per capita consumption of butter dropped from 17 pdUilds annually in 1935-39 to 8.6 pounds in 1951 and 1952, and it will be 'about 9 pounds for 1954. Consumption of margarine was |>elow 2 pounds in 1935-39, but increased to 4 pounds during the war and to 8 pounds since 1951. Consumption of ice cream averaged 25 pounds a year before World War ]J, jumping to 57 pounds in ig46 and staying at about 45 pounds in recent years. Sales of ice cream substitutes have increased in recent years.
