nL—-— —— a
Spilt Milk?
In 1930 there were 21 9 million cows in the United States.
Collectively they produced 116 6 billion pounds of milk.
One of those cows, a Guernsey from Missouri, contributed
part of that milk under rather unusual circumstances On
February 18, 1930, the brave cow boarded a plane at the St
Louis International Air Exposition. With a corps of reporters
in attendance, Elm Farm Ollip made aviation history as she
to fly but also the first cow to
ft. The milk was sealed into
iaper containers and parachut
;d over St Louis proving
[hat while it may be true that
tigs don’t fly cows, appar
;ntly, do*
Milk the cow that
stanJeth still.
■ts- Use a cloth wrung out In milk to clean and whiten piano
keys.
EARTHWISE
Pet bunnies, gerbils, and
their various cousins, as
well as chickens and ducks,
would love a treat of salad
greens in the winter Check
with the produce manager of
your local store Grocers
always try to “clean up” the
produce to make it more
attractive to shoppers He’s
probably discarding large
boxes of nutritious but funny
looking lettuce leaves and
vegetable trimmings every
week and would be glad to
have you cart some away It’s
basic recycling and pet pam
pering at the same time
Winter’s back breaks now

ADC Meets Farmers' Needs
More Than $124 Million in Extra Payments
"At Atlantic Dairy Cooperative, our mission
is to maximize returns to members. In the past
five years, we returned more than $124 million
to members in equity payments, over-order
premiums and quality bonuses. That's an
average of $35,500 per member. And these
extra dollars are continuing at the rate of $1.5
million a month.
"When non-members ask me why they
should belong to Atlantic Dairy Cooperative,
I am happy to report that we are financially
healthy, strong in membership and growing in
sales. ADC is the region's largest and most
fiscally-sound cooperative, with a guaranteed
market and outstanding benefits.
"More dairy farmers joined us last year than at any time in the
past decade. If you are not an ADC shipper and are worried about
your own milk market, then you should talk to the cooperative that
is facing the future with confidence."
