Meat- for-Health 

 Campaign To Be 

 Observed In June 



In order to brinK to the atten- 

 tion of the public, the wholesome 

 qualities of meat as well as the 

 relative economy of flesh for food, 

 all orsaniaations interested iti the 

 packing industry are sponsoring 

 a Meat-for-Health W.-ek through- 

 out the nation. June 25 to JO. 

 1923.' 



Producers, packers, live stock 

 commission men, butchers, and 

 consumers are co-operating Jo 

 make the campaign a success. 

 Among other things,, one of the 

 purposes of the canipaign is to 

 bring about, a closer understand- 

 ing betw^een the producer and the 

 consumer of this basic food sup- 

 ply. 



Oleo Production 

 Declines; Butter 

 On the Increase 



Oleomargarine prodtiction fell 

 froni' 212 million pounds in 1921 

 to Iho million pounds in 1922, 

 while the production of creamery 

 butter increased about 100 million 

 pounds al the same time, accord- 

 ing to figures just issued by the 

 United States Department of Ag- 

 riciiltur.'. Oleo production had 

 reached th.' great heighth of 370 

 million pounds in 1920. 



Complete ligures of increased 

 dai;'y iiroduetion are as follows: 

 creamery butter. 1921 — 1.053.000,- 

 iiOO pounds; 1922- 1,153,515.060 

 pounds; cheese: 1921 — 356.000.000 

 pounds; 1922; 37i>^^000.000 pounds; 

 ice cream: 19 2 1 — 148.000.000 

 pounds; 1922 — 161.000.000 pounds. 



Education of the consumer as 

 to the great fqod value of dairy 

 products as well as the bettering 

 M economic conditions are malply 

 responsible for the increased dairy 

 consumption. 



Fruit growers of western and 

 southwestern Michigan recently 

 organized the Michigan Fruit 

 Growers, Inc., to co-operatively 

 market their fruit products.
