Milk Prices Rise In October Across Hood Brands
Hood's Jersey Red Seal and farm milks will cost more per quart and per pint starting Oct 1 1916. Modified milk for children remains 20 cents per quart, with a small bottle feeding rate. Hood explains higher costs from feed, labor, machinery, transportation, and glassware, and says prices to farmers and railroads will increase to cover these. The company notes no profit for consumers at current rates and cites Interstate Commerce Commission changes in transportation as a factor.

It calls for pickup at the city railroad station, compliance with Board of Health rules, delivery to consumers, and price reductions if railroads offer lower rates or farmers cut prices. It defends raising pint jar prices for wealthier buyers while those with children receive milk at quart pricing.
