These reports generated during the 1930s provides some interesting insight into the local dairy industry. While there is the detailed analysis of milk samples, it also includes notations about various operations some of which I highlight below.

The Ralph Bass Ranch was given notice to comply with the Agricultural Code in regard to Dairy House and Equipment. They are now in the process of remodeling the Dairy House and putting in sterilizing equipment—January 1935

The C.C. Ulch Dairy discontinued selling market milk this month. A new cold storage box was installed at the Swiss Dairy Plant. J.H. McClelland was requested to put a canvas cover over his milk cans on the truck—April 1937

The Mt. Cove Dairy moved from the W.L. Sovy Ranch to the Masten Ramsey Ranch and is doing all bottling and capping at the new location—November 1937.
