Dairymen's League Plan to Arm nee Price mo That Milk Front Modern Dairies Will Bring: Most Money. Graded milk at prices aimed- to be compatible with the conditions and ex pense under which it is produced will probably be introduced into Portland in the not distant future. This is one of the features which the Oregon Dairymen's League purposes to bring about here, as soon as it can be worked out, according to a statement made by F. M. Kiger, its general man ager, yesterday. "It would seem not to require any pecial explanation," said Mr. Kiger, "to how the consuming public that a man who Is able to produce milk of a higher standard than another dairyman should receive more for his pains. It would be manifestly unjust and un fair were he to be compelled to accept the same rate as his less progressive competitor. It is hoped that, with the co-operation of the city division of milk inspection, we will be able be fore long so to grade the milk output to this city that the best, most modern dairyman shall receive the greatest compensation for his milk and cream.' According to Mr. Kiger. the members of the Oregon Dairymen's League have held their regular customers well since the new scale of prices became ef fective, It being the general opinion that the candid statement of facts con neciea wnn tne industry at tnis time sufficed to show the consumers that dairymen could no longer maintain their plants on the lower rates.
