CONDENSER OR CREAMERY
A. J. Mcclure, Dairy Expert, Boosts
Cooperative Creamery as Best
for Farmers.

A subscriber to the Farmer, recent
ly asked the following pertinent ques-
ton of A. ]. Mcclure, extension SER
vice, University of Minnesota, AgrI-
cultural College:
81 would like to know which
would be the more profitable for
period Of 10 years, to sell milk
to a condensery or the selling of
cream to creamery"
Mr.. Mcclure in his reply conclusive
ly proves that the cooperative cream
cry pays the patrons best in the fol-
lowing.
eve believe that the selling Of
cream to a first-class cooperative
creamery is more profitable than SELL
ing milk to a condensery. A hundred
pounds of skinned milk at all times
is worth half as much as a bushel of
corn. Corn is quoted today at 80 cents
bushel. This would make skim milk
worth practically so cents hundred.
First-class cooperative creameries
are paying as cents a pound for but
terfat, which would make 100 pounds
of four per cent milk worth 1928 to
the farmer; that is figuring the feed
ing value of the skim-milk worth 48
cents. Of course, butterfat at the
present time is unusually high, but the
price that cooperative creameries pay
is always high in comparison with the
price paid by milk condensery compa-
MES. We do not know of any conden-
sery that has ever paid the farmers
over 40 cents a hundred for their
skim-milk and that in competition
with cooperative creamery.
minnesota hasn't half the COWS
that it should have and will have to
keep up the fertility of the soil. Every
day farmers are going outside of the
state to buy cows and every year cows
are going up in price. Even with our
cooperative creamery system of keep
ing the skim-milk on the farm we
have not been able to raise nearly
enough heifers to supply the demand
What would it be if the majority Of
the farmers sold their milk? Calves
