Each dealer shall file with the director of agriculture a statement setting forth the days of each calendar month on which payment is to be made to producers. Whenever any dealer does not pay any of his producers on such days, he shall file with the director a sworn statement containing the names and addresses of producers not so paid and the amount payable to each.
Thereafter, on or before the twentieth day of each calendar month, each dealer shall file with the director a statement setting forth the prices paid for milk or cream delivered to him by producers during the preceding calendar month, and also setting forth the method by which payments to individual producers or a co-operative association were computed. The director shall file such statements, and the same or copies thereof shall be open to public inspection during office hours.
