Queens of the Dairy


We're really in the dairy business now. Since the legislation passed in 1923, we must have the milk checked, but we do not have to pasteurize. We bottle sweet milk and buttermilk in pint and quart bottles and peddle it in the mill village every morning before Blanche and I go to high school. Ethel is very good at milking. Even the little ones help. The little boys and Fannie Jane fill buckets of nubbins in the corncrib while we milk, and the boys can turn the corn sheller.
