MILK PRODUCTION
 SHOWS INCREASE
Fall Decline Not Present Thus
 Far This Year

Boston, Nov 3 LP)-Thc average daily milk production per COW for / all COWS as reported by New Eng
 ahd dairymen on Nov. 1, was only '@ per cent below that reported T month ago, the New England crop reporting service report on fall milk 'ptoductlon revealed yesterday. This vas 6.7 per cent above the average or year ago and 1. per cent above the f1Ve-year average 1924-192S.
 ' The report said< that from July 10 september the per COW produc- '>on curve followed a normal course. put since September it has held steady h contrast to the usual scY- Sonal decline. The sustained high production this season is attributed 10 the increase in milk prices stimu- lsting better care and feeding Of COWS, the mild fall weather and large supply of extra good quality hay. The introduction Of the modi- ned surplus plan of payment for tmlIk has also led many dairymon to increase the production of their leeds during the fall months.
 AS compared with the October average milk production, decreases m Maine, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Connecticut were partly offset by increases in Vermont and Massachusetts. The average pro- auction for New England as whole on November 1 was reported at I4.95 pounds compared with 15.OO pounds last month, 1401 pounds last year and 14.33 pounds the 1924 1928 average.
