    Q Having again spent some time in my personal archives in my attic, I have come across a volume issued by the DeLaval Separator Co. in 1928, commemorating the 50th anniversary of the invention of the centrifugal cream separator. You will note from the contents that this must have been of considerable advertising value at the time. I send this along (under separate cover) in case you don’t already have a copy in your archives.
    I have just seen the company’s results for 1973 & note that they are even better than 1972, and that you have even paid a dividend. I was talking to Gerry Comtois recently & be tells me things look even better this year. This must be very gratifying to you. …. I had no idea that milk was transported by tank truck as long as 60 years ago. (Page 52) Also that it took 24 years to develop a practical milking machine (Page 32)
