Because this office is aware of the need for advertising dairy products more than has been the case in the past, a Dairy Bar was sponsored by 4-H Clubs at the Fair. The bar offered for sale pure, wholesome, cold milk; delicious chocolate milk; old fashioned cold buttermilk; cheese sandwiches with butter; and ice cream. The profits from this stand were small, but if the advertising value was worth giving, then the efforts put into it were worthwhile.
