30 YEARS AGO
-Milk sales in gallon jugs have
been legal in Pennsylvania for sev
eral years, but establishments to
make the sales have been very

Lititz, will begin sales of milk in
gallon containers within the next
few days.

door with a horse and wagon and
sold milk from cans.

pasteurizing, homogenizing, and
bottling equipment and a large
herd, the business expanded to the
two routes of today.

May IS, Clark is looking for an
enlarged consumption of milk.

be produced on the farm, expan
sion of the herd is a possible out-
come of the whole program. During the program, a demon
“We will continue with the retail stration on gardening was given,
routes just as we have been in the after which A. G. Lueck, assistant
past," Clark said this week, “but if county agent, spoke more thor
anyone wants to drive out to the oughly on the subject.
