Government Bypasses April Butter and Cheese Purchases
Washington reports no April government purchases of butter or cheese under the dairy price support program for the first time in years. Only a small amount of non-fat dry milk was bought as milk production trails last year by about five percent while the consumer market absorbs available dairy products. The Agriculture Department notes it holds no butter or cheese from prior price support sales and plans to use its limited non-fat dry milk stocks for domestic and foreign feeding programs.

Laird predicts dairy price raise by Sept. 1
Rep. Melvin R. Laird warns a new dairy price support to rise to 3.70 per hundredweight will be announced before the elections but it will be too little and too late to offset recent Johnson-Freeman administration actions. He cites cuts in school milk programs, use of margarine for military food, and expanded foreign cheese imports as harming Wisconsin dairy farmers.
