L. McWilliams. general j manager of Pure Milk associa- I tion, Chicago, has outlined the j following factors and state- j ments relative to the questions, j He pointed out that dealers > paid a premium of 50 cents j cwt. on milk used in the Order j 41 fluid market during Janu- ! ary . . . but only 44 per cent of the total January production was sold for such use. In December, the percentage was 48. A 20-cent premium also was ' paid by dealers on cream. The j total premium, applied on the 85 per. cene of production that | was base in January, amounted j to 27 cents per hundredweight, j "It is quite apparent that ai- j though the Class I price was increased substantially by the new super pool, a total of 50 cents per cwt., only 44 per cent of that increase was reflected ; in the "blend" pri.ee to produc- i ers," McWilliams, said.
