der to enjoy the easier" method of
disposing of his milk.
This computation explains why dali
ry farming has become profitless,
while the skimmilk middlemen pile up
wealth. The 40-quart can of milk
that contains 60 to so cents of feed
value draws all that value out of the
soil The soil is poorer for every can
of milk sold away. There is no escap-
ing this most lamentable and ominous
truth. There is no possible way to
keep up the soil that produces milk to
sell away from the soil, solong as the
net returns TO the farmer are lower
than the cost of production. With
sufficiently large net returns for milk
the farmer could restore enough fer
tility TO the soil to balance that taken
out by the milk. AS the milk bust
ness now stands this is absolutely i'm
possible and utter soil exhaustion IA
ces the dairy farmers.
What can the dairy farmers do to
change the evil situation to good sit
uation? They can organize and coop
crate to regulate the liquid milk trade
so that no surplus may smash prices
to the producers. They can cooper
ate to make butter, cheese, casein,
milk sugar and condensed milk and
thus get out of their milk the wealth
that is now got out of it by the middle
men and manufacturers. They can
run their milk, not in an unreturning
current to the wasteful liquid market
but from their soil through live stock
back to their soil. In brief they can
conduct their business on business
like principles which they are not now
doing and have not been doing for
years.
