Dairy fanners who sold milk in the Chicago market during Jiily will receive $3.44 a hundred pounds for this month's production. This price is paid for 3.5 per cent butterfat milk which is delivered in the 70-mile zone. The July prices average 14 cents higher tiiaix the June prices and are five cents above the July 1954 level. The milk prices were announced by the Federal Milk Market administrators office in Chicago this past week. The July prices are beginning to reflect. seasonal increases. Normally the fall milk prices increase to a peak in October or November. Harry Edwards, who is responsible for keeping milk markets for over 15,000 dairy farmers in •the Chicago area, places the major reason for the increased milk price on the improved produ^- tion-and-sales picture. Milk production has stayed ponsiderably below last year, while sales of milk have increased. Over the past ten months these conditions brought an increase in the prices. The decrease in production up to the present time has been caused by farmers leaving the Chicago market. Since January, 1954, the number of dairymen shipping milk to Chicago has steadily declined. In July, however, the Milk Market administrator shows that this trend was reversed. In July there wire more dairymen shipping milk to the Chicago market than there were in June. It is too early to tell whether this increase in the number is significant and whether the trend will continue, Edwards said. ». July milk production reflected the end of the base-and-excessprice period. During this period many farmers in northern Wisconsin found that they could use their excess milk in other ways more profitably than by sending it through the regular trade channels. This excess milk which was diverted during June came back on the market during July. As a result, the production figures for the market showed a 7 percent decrease in June and only a 5 percent decrease during July compared with the same months a year ago.
