ATT EN T ION DAI R VMEN
The numbers on many of the milk cans in
which Volley dairymen deliver their milk
to the plant are getting rather faint. In
order to avoid any errors in dumping milk,
dairymen are requested to brighten up the
numbers on all your cans. Hake certain
that the numbers are all plainly printed
on each can so that there is no question
'as to whose milk is being weighed in. The
Association does not want to make any mis
takes in crediting the milk to the proper
producer, and we are sure that the produd
ers feel the same.
