Following the action of the Mix Pro-

the milk consumers of Washington prob
ably will face an increase Of cents
a quart In the retail price by October /.
This will be one month earlier than
the date upon which the increased
rates went into effect last year.
The action of the wholesale dealers in
advancing the price so early in the sea-
son came as a surprise to the retail IS,
and Secretary Farquhar, of the Retail
Association, will call a meeting OF The
local dealers Immediately to conside-
the feasibility Of raising the price. Nj.
Farquhar said today that ne did rot
see how the retailers can afford to pay
is cents through the month of October,
without raising the price in correspond

Washington. In the event that this -
