The costs of the raw milk itself; 2. The costs of picking it up; 3. The costs of pasteurizing, homogenizing, testing and packaging the milk; 4. Administrative costs; Of these costs, the most important is the and biggest price paid dairy farmers for milk. This price comes to almost 12 cents a quart oq the milk you buy at Safeway.

But as you can see this is a tempting place to cut costs and that's a way "price wars" begin. That's why Safeway presented witnesses to Utah's Milk Study Committee witnesses who testified, from experience, that where the price paid dairy farmers for milk is protected (by law or other regulation), price wars do not occur. For then, bottlers and retailers cannot pass the costs of competitive pricing back the easy way to dairy farmers. HOW, THEN, While these per quart profits seem low, they are substantial when based on volume. The 4 week period ending June 18, for example, brought Lucerne's net profit for the first 24 weeks this year up to $68,205.65. So you can see how, in the future, Safeway could make a reasonable overall profit while still reducing its per quart profit, and passing the reduction on to you in lower milk prices. This, Safeway believes, is a sound way for milk bottlers and retailers to compete for your business. And it cannot hurt Utah's dairy farmers if the price they are paid for milk is protected. Unfortunately neither the Milk Study Committee nor the Legislative Council has recommended any positive action to protect dairy fanners. BE Quart of Milk AUDITED FIGURES FOR 1.
