Farmers Seek Higher Milk Prices in County
Influential county farmers sought help from Secretary Lloyd T. MacGill of the Frederick Board of Trade to secure better milk prices. MacGill said farmers report summer prices of 9 to 12 cents per gallon while Frederick retail is 28 cents and Washington 36 cents. He noted the wholesale to retail gap seems too wide and questioned whether farmers are underpaid or retailers overpay. Farmers claim current prices do not reflect the effort and costs of production and buildings.
