He still names all of his cows and cares deeply for them.<br /><br />America continues to change, in farming too. I am thankful that the cheese factories recognize the little guys. My Dad has the 2nd best milk on the Milk Haulers route. The first goes to a small dairy heard of Guernseys. :-) Cell count and butter fat make up the score.Carla from The Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12107829617899979937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3212581401252445388.post-36138988254788940892012-02-27T06:28:38.738-06:002012-02-27T06:28:38.738-06:00Dairy farmers, although pretty predominate here, a...Dairy farmers, although pretty predominate here, are a vanishing breed too.
