The Price of Milk.
LRutland Hcrald.l

Clarcmont milk dealers in advertiS-
inc they are running in Claremont pa
pcrs saw that if they were paid the
same price per hour as plumbers milk
would cost b cents a quart. Further
more. plumbers dislike to work more
than eight hours a day, and refuse to
work more than nine. Milk dealers
work from - TO Is hours per day IN
Guiding sundays and holidays and with
no expectation of time and a half for
vcrtimc-Bellows Falls Times.
There are plenty of legitimate rea-
sons why milk costs more to produce
than formerly, but the comparison be
tween the plumber and the dairyman
is hardly convincing, because the dairy
man is a manufacturer. while the plumb:
er is merely a filter and retailer.
The successful dairvman must not
only buy his COWS and feed them 10 pro-
ducc milk, but lie must produce a large
proportion of the food lie feeds them,
the more the better. Theoretically, he
should produce everything the cows eat
ON the farm.
The only parallel between the plumb
err and the milk producer would come in
the ease OF a city milk dealer who runs
a stable of cows and buys everything
that they eat, in addition to paving
city prices for help.
1t is when the dairvman doubles

for the COWS, that ne runs into long
hours. big problems aud the need for
cooperation III marketing and distri-
button.
The present rise in the price of milk
/ is due to several agencies, prominent
among which are the high price of
grain, the scarcity of help and a gen
cral boosting in cost of everything the
dairyman uses in his business, directly
or indirectly chargcable to the war.
| The only Immediate remedy for the
help problem is cooperation between
