<DIV></DIV>No problem living out in the country as we did i never new what
deliered milk was till I saw it on TV. I learned a lot from TV in those early
50 I learned that the local well diggers were called Laurel and hardy in the
films and that you got milk from a grocery store or delivery man I wonder
where they got it from. We fed all our extra to the hogs so it didn't come
from us. </DIV>
