r.v Dairy Industry Grow* In Tarheel State Raleigh, N. C? Oct., 25.- ? ' The dairy industry is making a healthy, sub stantia) growth in North Carolina. Figures complied by John A Arey, dairy extension specialist at State College, show a remarkable growth in the dairy industry as witnessed by the fact that nine of the principal cities pay to the farmers of the sur rounding sections $4,178,520 annual* ly for milk. This dies not include the total milk bill of these nine cities bat is the amount of ftioney they are paying to dairy farmers of their im mediate section. Mr. Arey states that there ere twelve milk plants n:w in the State. Seven have been established since T920. There are fifteen creameries which make butter and seven of these were alss established since 1020 with others now bein# con structed. A' total of 7,500 farmers i;re selling cream to these establish ments for the purpose of making butter and the annual productioon of butte rby t.he creameries amounts, to 2,000,000 pounds. The annual production of cheese by the mountain factories is 75,000 poupds. The value of this cheese is $16,300 and the amount of ctfs'n paid to creamery patrons each, yefcr for butterfat is $640,000. This income fr:m the chcr.se ani butterfat is in addition to the $4, 178.520 paid annually for milk by the nine cities; * Another fact substantiating Mr. Arey's claim as to the growth of the dairy industry is that a Jersey cow of Mecklenburg County holds the all-southern butterfat. produc tion of 1,003.74 pounds. The state also has the only medal of merit Jmll in the South and the fifth in the Nation. There are more co;v iesting associations in North Caro lina than in any other state in the South except Virginia. fThen, above all else, there has been ajj increase c f t 250 per .cent in the consumption .at. milk in the larger cities of North Carolina.
