Utah Dairy Co. stops cheese production this week due to milk price gaps with butterfat. Milk buyers pay under 92 cents when cheese makers need higher returns. Plans call for continued pasteurization and bottling as equipment is completed, with some milk shipped to Cedar City. New dairy laws in July 1947 may require sanitary milking sheds and concrete floors, challenging small producers to adapt or exit.
