And in the process, the Madison market pool was worth more than a million for the first time in its five-year history. The 21.8 million pounds of milk was valued at $1,009,956.

Despite the production increases that came during the holding action, the Madison market still was benefited by the 25-state action of the National Farmers Organization (NFO) because of increased demand for Madison market milk from out-of-state markets. In Ohio and Indiana particularly, NFO members and other dairymen cut the milk flow to major markets sufficiently to force the markets to get Wisconsin milk. As a result, milk suppliers in the Madison marketing area got an increase in Class One (bottled) milk sales. Such sales, which command the highest milk prices, have been running about 60 per cent, but the out-of-state demand during the holding action pushed the Madison market's Class One utilization to 65 per cent. Officially, Madison milk price dropped 31 cents a hundred for bottled milk during March.

That made the March price $4.59 a Bert's Grocery Isn't The Regular Kind MIAMI (P) Wall to-wall carpeting is only one of the unusual featurees of Bert's Grocery Store in suburban Coconut Grove.

(P That was a fine-looking quilt the Congregational Church women sold at their bazaar.

BJORKLUND Farm Editor) Marketing Order figures released increase in milk production the 15-day milk holding action. in the marketing area from Madi- hundred pounds. This means that farmers received 9.87 cents a quart. Because of producer negotiations, however, some premium will be paid by dairies on portions of the Class One milk delivered in March and dairymen will recover some of their lost price. They will not recover, however, on the price of Class Two (manufacturing) milk which is used in products like butter, cheese, and nonfat dry milk powder.

That price now is down to $4.01 a hundred pounds for milk testing 3.5 per cent butterfat. That same kind of milk was worth $4.34 a hundred pounds last September. The real picture of milk production in the Madison market is seen in the amount of milk the average market producer sends in each day. During March, that figure reached 1,180 pounds, which is 17 pounds a day higher than the average producer marketed each day. A year ago, the production per producer per day was 1,135 pounds and in the big production year of 1965 it was 1,215 pounds.
