lined refrigerator milk car is certain
to have an important part in the mar.
keting of Wisconsin dairy products,
dairymen say. These tank cars are
coming into general use in metropoli-
tan centers and will be used to
greater degree for the supply of fluid
milk to Chicago. Wisconsin milk and
butter is now being shipped to Florida,
for while Florida has plenty of real
estate, climate and real estate agents,
it is woefully short in dairy products.
These glass-lined tank cars have two
compartments, each capable of holding
1900 gallons of milk, total of about
$4,000 pounds of milk. The milk goes
in by gravity and is pumped out.
Chilled to 36 and 80 degrees the milk
will go from Wisconsin to Key West
and not lose more than three degrees,
and be in perfect condition.
