S NEW PRICE IS TO TAKE EFFECT THIS THURSDAY JUNIOR COLLEGE ANOTHER YEAR PASTURES RUINED- BY / D R O U T H v Partners of the Chicago area were granted their second milk price increase within a week Monday night after , a long conference in the Bismarck hotel between. representatives of the Associated Milk Dealers, Inc., and officials of the Pure Milk association, bargaining agency for 14,500 dairymen in Illinois, Wisconsin and Indiana. The new price, effective today (Thursday), will give the farmers 53 cents a hundred pounds (1.13 cents a quart) more for their milk than the average price received during June.
