Dairy farmers are taking their c^se to Washington For the past month, they've been the target of the Reagan administration's determination to reduce federal expenditures Congress is holding hearings to freeze the scheduled April 1 increase in dairy price supports, an increase written into the farm law passed three years ago "Congress and the President made a contract with dairy farmers when they passed that law, and farmers responded by in creasing production which was the purpose of the 80 percent price support law Bill Lenschow, Sycamore dairy farmer, said today Lenschow is a member of the Associated Milk Producers. Incorporated, a large mid-America farmer owned cooperative Len schow is a member of the national corporate board and that board meets in Washington this week to talk with congressmen. USDA officials and key members of the Reagan administration Their goal is to show why dairy farmers feel (1) the increase of 6 9 percent scheduled April 1 under the price support law is deserved, and < 2) a freeze or cutback would lead to decreased milk production with fewer farmers staying in dairying because of little profit, if any. "Dairy farmers' costs continue to climb Many of the things we must have are one and one-half to two times higher than 18 months ago Hauling has gone up also, as haulers try to pay for their increased fuel costs When we feed corn costing 13.25 a bushel, dairymen will figure very carefully before thev continue producing milk at break-even prices "The scheduled increase is needed to help keep up with costs. For the past year dairvmen have had a fair profit The top dairy tarmer has made a decent living, but in all candor I must say that those that are not the best dairymen are making less than minimum wages " How much less0 Bill says they're making $2 80 an hour for their labor but he adds quickly: "Dairy farmers milk cows because they like it I like the freedom I enjoy working with animals My family is involved in my life every day." I/enschow explains why the price freeze would hur young farmers "I've bee., farming 20 years so my cows and equipment are paid for I still have a mortgage but it is at 10 percent or lower But a farmer who's carrying a mortgage and must borrow money for equipment, cows and operating expenses is paying 15 percent of more. That 's a big burden to carry .when costs continue to climb with no sign of them slowing down "I think you'll see many younger dairymen forced out It angers me to know the U S government made a contract with us to en­ courage production for four years, and now is reneging on the deal Keeping Cheese If you want to keep a large piece of cheese for an extended time, dip the cut surface melted paraffin.
