CALLS SUNDAE
LAW VIOLATOR
IOWA DAIRY FARMER SAYS IT is
A CRIMINAL IN FOOD
SITUATION.

McGregor, Oct. 15.-The ''sundae" is
the latest criminal in the food situa-
ton. "Too many 'sundaes'' Is Q big
reason why butter is SO high" accord
ing to a prominent dairy farmer of Nc.
Gregor. Look at the growth of the
soda fountain business the last few
years." he says. Small towns that
used to be proud to have one ice cream
'Darlor, now have three or four. The
smallest village has ice cream cones
for sale. It's rare drug store any
where that hasn't soda fountain. The
automobile does its share in boosting
the business. Sundaes along the way
in motor touring cars are matter Of
course. The movie does it's bit also.
Watch any movie crowd leave q the.
alter and see how many Of them stop
for sundae on the way home
SURPLUS OF FACTORIES.
ITO supply this enormous demand,
ice cream factories are springing up
everywhere, frequently in the cream
cries themselves. What's the result?
Simply that a lot of butter-fat that
used to 60 into the butter churn is now
going into the ice cream mixer and It
is the highest grade Of the product too.
AC 81 C0I lICiCdSC III tllC COA6uulp-
ton of whole milk in towns and cities
is another cause for the climb in butter
prices" he claims. Every dairyman
knows this. These are prosperous
Families who formerly bought no milk
at all, now buy pint or quart; those
who used to buy a quart, buy two
quarts. The same is true of cream
Where milk in many families used to
be good enough for coffee and cereal,
cream now is used.
BUTTER MIGHT BE HIGHER.
.'And this increased use of the whole
milk and the expansion of the ice
cream business to the enormous de-
mand the war has made at home and
abroad for condensed milk and butter
and It is not necessary either to flay
the farmer or the cold storage men to
account for butter being high. The
fact is, II it were not for the wide use
of butter substitutes, the price Of but
ter would be far higher than it is
now"
