Milk consumption may fall this year despite steady fluid supply

The bureau of agricultural economics cites a possible drop in per capita condensed and evaporated milk intake from 19.8 pounds in 1945 to as low as 14.9 pounds, while butter use could rise to 12.5 pounds per person and fluid milk supply remains near current levels. The War Food Administration notes the dairy squeeze stems from military demand, lend-lease needs, and rising civilian purchasing power. The piece also lists multiple service personnel, residents and families from Charleston and nearby areas with various military postings and transfers.
