Kraft Foods plant in Bonham processes milk from 158 Fannin county producers and neighboring areas. In five months of 1959 the plant collected about 13 million pounds of milk and produced 1,300,600 pounds of cheese, with May deliveries of 3.5 million pounds. Production supports 35 workers and adds income to farmers and Bonham merchants, totaling around $75,000 paid to local dairy farmers monthly.
Figures show 1956 milk production could fill a river over 3,000 miles long, given 22,357,390 dairy cows on about 1 percent of U.S. farms. Production neared 126.1 billion pounds, near the 1957 record. The illustration compares volume to a Boston to San Francisco river, world-banded bottles, and a moonward stack.
