:.TLX PRICES
Tiie'Co-op Picard at the last regular meet
ing, following a lengthy discussion on
milk pricing, decided that it rill not be
possible to rake a change in the price'of
milk to the farmer at the present time.
The Dairy Department has not yet recovered
from the long period of milk dumping that
was necessary this spring and summer while
the Army was not using Grade A milk.
HLTHJGS ON GRADE A KHZ
It is possible to make Grade A milk from
milk powders and butter providing that
the Grade A po'./dor and Grade A butter are'
made from Grade A milk in a Grade A plant.
Horever, Grade A butter and Grade A pov
dor can be made from Grade E and ungraded
milk.
A reply lias been received from the Terri
torial Department of Health'giving a rul
ing of the Attorney General-- based upon
the o~ in ions from the U.S. Department
of Health ■ that
x
No milk con be labelled as Grade A Milk
or Grade A Reconstituted Milk unless all
of the raw materials that go into the
making of the final product'are Grado A
milk an d Grade A butt erfat.
Using Grade A pov;der and Grade A butter
does not comply ’with this requirement
3ince ungraded milk can be utilized' to ■
make Grade A milk powder and butter. The ;
rcruiroments for the manufacture of Gradej
A milk powder and Grade A butter are dif-'
fcrent from the requirements in the pro
duction of Grade A milk.
Severe penalties are'imposed for violatioi
of these regulations. (Cont. nemt column) '
