Sour milk on a city doorstep once meant sickness, so one town turned quality into a competition. Clarence Lane lays out how a city milk and cream contest actually ran: conditions of entry, the judges, the scoring, the medals, and the letter that got dairymen to compete. A practical civic experiment in cleaner supply, straight from the scorecards. See how a prize reshaped a whole herd.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
