Horton Says:
You Pay for No Waste

T>ACH days production of milk on
the farms supplying New York
City is taken by the dealer in it's
entirety.
Whether the farmer produces one
can or ten the dealer takes it all, he has
to- and at a price agreed on each month
in ADVANCE
Each day that part needed to fill your
order is shipped to the city.
The balance, and sometimes it is a
big balance, is made into butter or
cheese or some other milk product that
can be held and marketed at such a
time as you will use it.
1t is all converted into human energy
in one form or another None of it is
wasted.
I want to emphasize this fact because
it is important
want to emphasize it because it is
potent factor in making milk an eco
nomical food
And, regardless of what you may be
told milk always has been and still is
the cheapest of any food of animal
origin.
Every egg that you buy must carry a
charge for the millions that are wasted.
1t has been estimated that the annual
loss in eggs in this country alone is over
one hundred and fifty millions Of
dollars
All my life I have seen the fruit of
the orchards rotting on the ground. 1t
is conservative to say that the losses
are greater than the volume that
reaches the consumer.
Millions of dollars worth of vege-
tables are left on the farms ungathered.
Shiploads of food are dumped into
the ocean because they have spoiled
before the consumer could get them.
Our Health Department condemns
thousands of tons of food each year and
consigns it to the offal dock, all because
the methods of distribution and ham
ding are inadequate.
And what you consume is padded to
pay for the losses due to waste and
destruction.
The milk business>is is absolutely free
from this sort of thing.
There is no waste in milk
SHEFFIELD F.
New
New-York tribune., 1919-12-17
Nilk-Theve Isn't Amy.

The methods employed in handling
milk in New York City are in fact an
actual realization of the dreams of the
advanced distribution experts.
A simple truth and the only reason it
is not fully recognized is because the
critics refuse to examine the facts.
All the milk produced is used All
made available for human food either
as fresh milk, butter1nilk, butter,
cheese, cream, condensed milk, etc.
Even the whey from the cheese vats
goes back to the farm and ultimately
reaches your table in the form of
better quality Of Pork.
In no other line that I have any
knowledge of is such a degree of con-
servation attained. Every dollar thus
saved is saved for the consumer and
does not add one cent to the dealers
profits directly or indirectly.
If your milk was handled in the
wasteful, slipshod method that exists
in most food lines, without offending
the senslbillties Of the critics, milk
would retail for SO cents quart and be
hard to get even at that price.
TO say that milk distribution methods
in vogue are perfect would be claiming
for them something humanity irnpossi-
bic to attain. Nothing that I know of
is 1000 efficient But if you will look
over the whole history of milk investi-
cations you will fail to discover a single
workable plan offered to replace the
one that now serves you.
Hundreds have been offered, but
never by man who was willing to back
it up with his own money.
You may be told that the milk trust
has all the milk in the country tied up,
or that it owns all the cans and bottles,
or that it has some sort of mysterious
strangle hold on the business that
makes it impossible for the reformers
to break into the milk business. Don't
believe it.
Any man with ten dollar bill can
buy milk in the country and bring it to
the city and peddle it if he can convince
the Health Department that he will
handle it right ASza
The business is wide open to ANYBODY
who wants to get in, and the reason the
critics are not in is the best evidence in
the world that they have no faith in
their own suggestion.
