Dairy News
The milk business is increasing. |
Those who are now delivering milk |
are well pleased. Our farmers are
getting COWS as fast as they can |
find them. Some are leading cows |
from near Wilmington to this place.
The milk trail has started from
Ocean View to this point. Our stone |
roads are putting us on the job.
Dairying will soon be our greatest
industry. Our merchants are in
terested as well as the farmers. Co.
operation is what we must continue
to have. Those who can furnish 20
quarts of milk per day can get
cans and start selling their product.
1t costs nothing to ask questions |
about the matter, so get busy. Ev-
eryone that keeps few COWS will |
profit thereby. Edward Hickman is
at the milk stand. He can give you
information. He also can tell you |
where to buy sound cows. Mills
boro is getting lined up. Milk is
now to be collected from there, and
Stockley has the same privilege.
We want all milk south of George
town.
