MILK AND CREAM
PROBLEM FOR CITY
Plan for Central Pa.teurizing Plant
and Distribution Is Proposed.

A sufficient and satisfactory milk
and cream supply for the city Of Will
mar has been difficult problem for
both producer and consumer. The
cost OF feed and labor is high. A num-
Der OF dairymen have gone out Of bust.
ness and others say they are going to
quit, because it is not possible to pro-
duce milk and run a general delivery
at a profit. For some time past the
dairymen have considered getting to-
gether but It has seemed like big
proposition. On the other hand con-
sumers complain that the Government
is urging the use of more milk and
milk products and they are unable
to secure milk enough to meet their
needs. It is difficult for some families
to secure milk. -4
DR.. p. II. Frost took up this matter
with Mayor Wellin and the State
Board of Health. DR.. r. w. Archibald
for the State Board of Health came to
Willmar and spent Monday with Dr.
Frost making brief survey OF the
dairy conditions. Several dairymen
were visited. DR.. Archibald says that
the production in most cases was very
good. The main difficulty seemed to
be handling and distributing after the
milk is produced.
DIR. Archibald and Frost appeared
before the city council Monday even
ing and presented the situation. Some
of the dairymen and others were pres
ent and took part in the discussion.
More supervision and more help from
the city seemed imperative. A central
ized distributing plant handling pas
teurized milk was favored by DR..
Archibald and the advantages present
ed. This could be run co-operatively
by the farmers or as municipal plant
by the city. It was stated by the Doc
tor that a plant of this kind would
cost $1,000 to $4,000 to put in opera
tion and should be able to handle
milk enough to supply the city, about
1900 quarts daily at cents per quart
for pasteurizing, bott1ing and deliver
ing.
To farther investigate for the pur-
pose of finding satisfactory so1u-
ton of difficulties committee was ap-
pointed to represent the city and 1t
was decided to call meeting Of dairy
men to present the matter.
