It will be seen that the north-western counties account for over 20 per.cent. of the total milk production and the south- western for nearly 15 per cent., whereas the eastern division produces less than 7 per cent. although the yielding capacity of the cows in the division is high. In Map XVI is shown diagramatically the relative production of milk in proportion to the area of crops and grass in each county. This takes into account the relative density of the cow population as well as the average milk yield of the cows kept in the different counties, which reflects the variations due to the production of milk for sale only, in comparison with mixed dairying. The north-western counties of Lancashire, Cheshire, Derby: Stafford and Flint produce most milk in relation to their sizes followed by Somerset, Dorset and Wiltshire in the south-west: The smallest Production of milk in proportion to agricultural area 18 In the north-eastern counties, where pasture land iS least plentiful, The Disposal of Milk— Nearly three-quarters of the milk produced in England and Wales (other than that fed to calves and pigs) is sold off the farms as liquid milk, and if allowance be made for the milk consumed in farm households as liquid
