The Outlook for the Dairyman 
(Continued from page 538) 
especially in eastern sections where milk 
prices have been low for several months and 
much feed must be purchased. Eventu¬ 
ally, many of the dual purpose cows on 
farms in the Middle West and West will 
be allowed to nurse their calves again/ 
Those men who prefer to “milk from the 
back of a horse,” as Dean Russell put it, 
or who like to do most of their farming 
from the driver’s scut behind a four- 
horse team or a tractor, will lose their 
sudden infatuation for the dairy cow. 
And, finally, as has been pointed out 
numerous times in the last few troublous 
months, the sale to the butcher of the 
boarder cows would eliminate most, if not 
all, of the present excess in production 
and do it to the profit of the owners of 
such cows and pave the way for better 
prices for everybody. 
Imports Exceed Exports 
The last five years have witnessed a 
complete reversal in our foreign trade. 
The accompanying graphs tell the story. 
They show the net balance of trade in 
terms of whole milk for each of the 
principal dairy products, and for all 
combined, for the last ten years and the 
pre-war average. 
Before the war we were importing 
substantial quantities of cheese, while 
in butter and condensed milk, imports 
and exports practically balanced each 
other. The war stimulated exports of 
all three products until in 1919 the net 
export balance in terms of whole milk 
was over 2.6 billion pounds. Since 1919 
the current has gradually shifted until in 
1923 there was a net import balance of 
477 million pounds, the first since 1914. 
Net imports of 18 million pounds of 
butter last year were unusually heavy, 
while net imports of 56 million pounds of 
cheese were the largest on record. Net 
exports of condensed milk amounted to 
184 million pounds. 
The amount of butter actually im¬ 
ported does not bulk so large compared 
with our domestic output, but it is the 
equalizer which keeps our prices in line 
with the world level plus the tariff. The 
fact that foreign butter is available, even 
though it is not brought into the country, 
acts as a club over the domestic market. 
Our Prices Attractive 
Great Britain is the chief market for 
surplus butter and cheese. She imported 
more butter in 1923 than ever before, but 
this was accomplished as a result of heavy 
offerings from her colonies and from 
Denmark which had to find a market. 
Because of these large supplies and so 
much industrial idleness, British butter 
and cheese prices have been rather low. 
Hence, exporting countries have found 
it better to send part of their output to 
the United States even though the tariff 
compels them to take 8 cents less than 
our prices for butter and 5 cents less for 
cheese. To a limited extent, the discount 
on foreign exchanges neutralizes the 
tariff, although that argument has lost 
much of its force. This is especially 
true of Denmark, which country must 
use that same depreciated money to 
buy from other countries the oil cake 
and feeds with which to ration its dairy 
cows. 
Foreign Competition in the Future 
What can be expected in the future in 
the way of competition from foreign 
dairy products? 
For one thing, if our prices average 
lower, foreign countries won’t ship so 
much in our direction. A Government 
observer reports that production during 
the past winter has been unprofitable 
in Denmark. If Danish dairymen are 
like those in other countries, these 
conditions eventually will result in some 
curtailment. New Zealand is in better 
position to maintain its output, as the 
climate favors outdoor feeding much oi 
the year and the feed used is produced 
at home so that production costs are low. 
Furthermore, foreign consumption will 
expand at lower prices and help to re¬ 
move some of the pressure upon our 
markets. Germany formerly bough i 
about 125 million pounds of butter
