Farmers Pledge $2,500 on Plant

To Se7 Direct Pledging of J2.r('0 toward a producers co-operat.e distributing plant and the placing of the producers side of the milk controversy before the agriculture committee of the Chamber of Commerce were the two developments .n the milk war Saturday. Probably the first is more important to the consumer than the latter. While the committee which was delegated by the producers' association at a meeting at the high school yesterday afternoon was conferring with the agriculture committee, an adjourned meeting of 60 of the producers was held and after a discussion of the possibilities of a co-operative distribution of milk direct from the producer to the consumer this Sl'.'iOO was pledged. Xwl $lo,m for llunu It is understood that the producers will not build this plant unless it is absolutely impossible to secure the price they ask from the distributors. Ten thousand dollars would be required to build such aj plant but the farmers are confident that this amount can easily be raised. Seven-cent milk would not be impossible under this regime. Farmers now figure their cost of production at about 21.4 cents per gallon during the winter months, according to tests and figures compiled by T. Roberts of the St. Joseph County Cow Testing association. Part of this cost would be eliminated by the plant while the additional cost of the plant would make the average price about the same. By selling the milk at 2 8 cents per gallon the producers would come out about five or six cents to tho good. Show O. or C. Figures. The figures presented by Roberts were In turn presented to the Chamber of Commerce committee by a producers' committee, composed of W. F. Hostetler, John Sholly. Albert Fulk and John S. Bordner. These figures added in a man's labor at $2 per day, feed, taxes, interest and depreciation and showed that It ccst the producer IS. 7 cents per gallon to produce milk during October, 20.7 cents daring November, and 21.4 cents during December. No decision was reached by the agriculture committee, "who took the matter under advisement and will probably report either Monday or Tuesday of next week. The committee will make an effort to have the distributors present their side of the argument before them in the near future.
