1t is expected that the sue
cess of this contest will es-
tablish it as a regular an
nual affair in Roanoke, as
well as in some 40 other
cities throughout the coun-
try. Thus, the progress s
made by various groups in
attaining a higher standard
of health through formula
feeding with Carnation Milk
will be a constant challenge
for other research and SER
vice projects that are expect
ed to be conducted by the
Carnation Company.
In its. research efforts,
Carnation has established
one of the most famous
farms in the world, ire
mendous 1900 acre model
dairy farm just outside of
Seattle, Washington. Here,
experiments begin with the
various blood strains that
have brought into existence
some of the finest Holsteins
of all time. Of the thirty
six greatest butterfat and
milk producers the world has
known, sixteen were bred on
the Carnation Farms.
Laboratory control of it's
product is a part of every
evapora t ID milk plant
throughout the u. S. and
Canada. Production is check
ed constantly by research
chemists to assure the rigid
standards of quality and uni
formity established by Car
nation. These results are
compared at a central labor
atory which is maintained
for quality control all along
the line.
A great deal of the sue
cess of this contest can be
attributed to the work of
Carnations consumer con-
sultants who are in the field
acquainting people with the
benefits of using evapor-
ated milk in so many ways,
