Butterfat 30 Cents Pound.
Butterfat has taken another life
eixed jump toward the top rung in the
nigh cost of living ladder, according
cry company. The raise was effective
. few days ago and makes the present
price SO cents pound.
The price of the product was for
merly "a cents. The creameries were
forced to make this raise owing to its
scarcity. 1t was thought for some
time that the product would decrease
In price rather than increase owing to
the tariff. But this, however, is not
the case. For the benefit of those
who think this price is high, the
creamery men say that the product is
plentiful for this season. So, cheer
MP, it might be worse.
