USE MORE MILK IS
THE SUGGESTION
State Commission Makes an
Interesting Report on the
Pittsburgh Situation

The consumption of more milk and
efforts to bring the public to a
greater realization of it's food value
are among the recommendation
made by the State Milk Commission
in its report on the situation in the
Pittsburgh district. The commission
vas named last winter to work in
conjunction with. commissions from
other states in an inquiry into the
problems attending milk production
and distribution in the Philadelphia
district and recently it made an in
Vestigation in the Lancaster district.
The recommendations of the commits
sion are statewide in character. The
commission is headed by Charles E.
Carothers, deputy secretary of agri-
culture.
The commission calls attention to
the fact that it is not a price-regu-
lating body. 1t urges the Immediate c
return by consumers to normal con-
sumption and wherever possible an
increase in consumption of milk; an
increase in the price of milk paid
to producers by consumers for No
vember and December; women's clubs
and similar bodies to study the food
value of milk; better care of bottles
and prompt return by consumers;
and that producers raise at least one
heifer out of five. and slaughter or
sell not over eighteen per cent. VI
cows and then only the poorest milk
ers.
THE public has thought of milk
prices as very simple thing. AS a
ma tier of fact, there is no more COM
pleX problem before the country at
this time" says the report. The
farmer must be paid something more
during the two or three months of
winter costs to continue adequate
production. The dealer feels that he
ccnnot pay more under present con-
sumption. The whole question OF
milk prices in Pittsburgh is now up
to the consumer. We have asked
both farmers and dealers to make
the sacrifices necessary to keep milk
in Pittsburgh for the present at least
at the present prices"
