seek Repeal Of Whey Rutter Law.

seek repeai OF whey Butter Law
Legislators from all Wisconsin
dairy counties are receiving daily
petitions from farmer constituents
urgently requesting them to use all
possible means in effecting repeal Of
the law which requires branding and
labelling of so-called whey Butter"
The present law is alleged to be
detrimental and unfair to the dairy
industry. Neighboring states have no
such law. Wisconsin farmers are said
to lose thousands of dollars annually
because the law necessitates selling
their butter at a lower price to the
commission dealer.
The commission man, they declare,
sells whey butter at higher price
than. he sells creamery butter. The
annual business is said to total So
100000.
A bill is soon to be drafted to repeal
the whey butter law, which was en-
acted at the last session.
