Package Cleanliness

Lawrence Sharp, owner and op-
orator OF Silver Hill Dairy, one of
MllfOrds most progressive milk
dispensing concerns, has announ-
ced that his dairy is featuring a
new type square bottle with a seal
ed metal cap. According to Mr..
Sharp, the container opens with an
opener, but can readily be re-seal-
ed and re-opened by hand.
These new containers, which are
the ultimate in containeF cleanli-
ness, will be used for the first time
today and will assure all Silver
Hill patrons that the milk they re-
ceive will be completely sealed
and protected during handling and
delivery. OF special interest to the
housewife will be the fact that re,
sealing keeps out refrigeration

easier to handle, is lighter, fits the
hand, takes up less space in the re
frigerator and is generally 1907
better than the old round type o
