ANY Anxious Mothers
would be relieved if they would
use an hour or two some day to
visit our model dairy.
It is singular to us that every
mother in Washington doesn't
personally investigate the source
from which the family receives
its milk supply. It would be time
well used.
Possibly they feel that they would
not be welcome. That is
not true at the Chestnut
Farms Dairy. We are al
' ways glad to show any in
terested person through our
