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 Ollie made avia
tion history as she became not only the first cow to fly,
but also the first cow to be milked while aloft. The
milk was sealed into paper containers and parachuted
over St. Louis proving that while it may be true that
k jj pigs don’t fly cows,
apparently, do!
its- Before scalding milk, rinse the saucepan in cold water
and It will be much easier to clean up afterwards.
