only in another state or engaged only in manufacturing shall pay a license fee of
$150.00 per year. A milk dealer who during the year prior to the one for which the application is
being made sold a quantity of milk which would yield a fee of less than $300.00 per
year may pay his full fee at the beginning of the license year based upon the prior
