Over 90 per cent of the milk pro cessed by the Newberry plant is pro duced by the registered Guernsey and Jersey cows, a fact which con tributes to the overall higher butter- fat content of the Newberry Dairies milk. whch has not been grazed during lit ter part of summer. Arrange to pur chase purebred beef bulls if needed. Arrange to purchase beef heifers to start a herd. Screwworms will pro bably be more numerous until a hea vy irost.

Breed cows and heifers now for next fall freshening. Poultry Move pullets to laying house be fore they come into full production. Clean and spray the laying house and delouse the pullets before putting them in it. Keep grain before pul lets in order to get them in good flesh before coming into egg production.

Hubert Boyd, Agent Some of the records established by the local plant include the following: The average butterfat test in the state is 3.8 per cent, Newberry Dair-j ies producers’ milk will average 5 per cent; in the State of South Caro-i lina milk can arrive at the process ing plant at a temperature of 50 de- grees and still receive a Grade A certification, but Newberry Dairies accept no milk hotter than 45 de grees; according to the health de partment a miximum bacteria count ( of 50,000 rates Grade A certification, Newberry Dairies average bacteria count is 15,000; all of the producers of the milk processed by the New berry Dairies are wRlun a five mile radius of Newberry, this eliminates extensive hauling and a three or four, day delay before actual consumer de livery. Included in the variety of products turned out by the Newberry Dairies are pastuerized milk, homogenized milk, skim milk, for those on a fat- free diet), chocolate milk, butter milk, coffee cream, whipping cream, and ice cream, in assorted flavors. Incidentally, in their ice cream de partment, the Newberry Dairies have established another record, in i that they produce the richest ice cream made commercially in the en tire state of South Carolina, and they manufacture this ice cream soley for retail local trade. J The history of the local plant dates back to 1946, when it was organized as a co-op and production began on January 1, 1947. This continued until October, 1949, when three members !of the co-op, W. E. Senn, H. H. j Brown and Parr Brothers, bought the plant and incorporated it. It has op erated as such since that date. Producers of the milk processed by the Newberry Dairies number on-, ly seven, but these seven own some of the best herds,in the entire state. They are: T. Collier Neel, W. E. Senn, H. H. Brown, Parr Brothers, J .F. Hawkins, L. C. Dennis and T. O. Stewart. Newberry Dairies will continue to live up to its motto “Quality, Plus Service.” Ads Oppose Medical Plan Chicago—The American Medical Association’s million dollar 1950 ad vertising campaign against what it calls “the danger of socialized medi cine and threatening trend toward state socialism” starts Sunday. The AMA will place advertise ments in every bona fide daily and weekly newspaper in the United States, Hawaii and Alaska—about 11,000 n all. Full page ads will be run in 30 national magazines, in cluding Sunday newspaper supple ments, and a score of advertising trade publications. Some 1,600 radio stations in all the states and the two territories will broadcast AMA-sponsored spot an nouncements over a twoweek period. The campaign will run the associ ation’s outlay in its fight against compulsory health insurance to well over $3,000,000 in two years. Administration supporters of Pres ident Truman’s compulsory health insurance plan have criticized the AMA’s advertising campaign. This drew fire from Clem l^hitaker, di rector of the AMA’s national educa tional campaign, who accused them of “political cowardice” and of “headlong retreat from public dis cussion of this public issue.” The opening advertisement ap pears in The Chronicle today.
