LEONARD’S REAL ESTATE & M. AUTO M O TIVE PARTS AUTHORIZED broad authority granted it hy the Oregon M ilk Control Law, sets limits on the richness of milk. It also sets the price you must pay for milk. I he limits differ somewhat in different parts of the state, but the principle is always the same. In Portland standard milk is limited to J.8 % hutterfac. If any distributor should deliver richer milk he is required to charge two cents more. In Josephine and Jackson counties richer milk is more drastically discouraged. The moment a distributor goes above 3-4% butterfat he must charge his customers one cent more, and at 3.7% he must charge still another cent, and so on through several price ranges. These regulations controlling the richness of milk make it impossible to give the consumer greater value for his money. At the same time, such restric tions increase farmer surpluses of butterfat. Mdk control holds down the richness of milk you can get for your money and reduces the market for the farmer’s cream.
