  • Crate Farming 101
    CRATE FARMING 101 Before you start growing your own food in milk crates, set yourself up for success with SUN, SOIL and WATER, and the knowledge needed to get the most out of your available space. (1) Minimum 4 hours of sunlight, ideally 6+ hours. (2) Clean tested soil. (3) A crop plan taking into consideration available light, the season, quick/slow crops, available growing space. (4) A water source and irrigation on a timer, OR the availability to water manually e/o day. (5) Knowledge about maintaining the soil (fertilizing/amending), maintaining the garden (thinning, weeding, trellising, pollinating), and pest and disease management. (6) Season extension. (7) How to use your harvest (preparing, cooking, canning, pickling). SITE SELCTION—FINDING LIGHT Light is perhaps the most important element when selecting a garden site. 4- 6 hours of unfiltered sun will support low-light crops, 6 or more hours are required to successfully grow full sun crops (like tomatoes). Using a solar tracker is the most accurate way to measure sunlight hours. Take into account the height of trees when they're leafed out. More sunlight = more growth potential.

  • Chapter 2B Dating Milk Bottles, Part II © Bill Lockhart 2011 Paper Milk Cartons on Several Occasions, Paper Cartons Challenged
    Chapter 2b Dating Milk Bottles, Part II © Bill Lockhart 2011 Paper Milk Cartons On several occasions, paper cartons challenged the supremacy of glass as containers for milk. Only the last was really successful. For a thorough discussion of the issues surrounding paper containers and a more complete list of patents, see the Dairy Antique Site (2011). Early Paper Cartons – 1896-1915 Hervey D. Thatcher, noted for some of the earliest glass milk bottles, also applied for a patent for a waxed paper milk pail on June 24, 1895, and received Patent No. 553,794 on January 28, 1896 (Figure 2-39). Thatcher discussed many of the issues connected with glass milk bottles (including breakage as well as problems with sanitation and washing). He claimed that his “Parafinned Pail” would solve the problems with glass. Thatcher followed up with two other patents for refinements, Patent No. 619,019 for a “Paper Pail” on February 7, 1899, and Patent No. 688,365 for another “Paper Pail” on December 10, 1901. He never advanced beyond the “pail” design. Figure 2-39 – Thatcher “Parafinned Pail” Winslow (1907:140) noted that “the latest departure in the way of a milk bottle is the single service milk container of wood-paper made and invented by G.W. Maxwell of 2101 Folsom St., San Francisco. now in actual use by dairymen in Los Angeles.” The “bottles” were shaped like “an ordinary drinking glass” and came in quart, pint, half-pint, and quarter-pint sizes. The paper cover was wedged into place and held by four tabs. Although Winslow gave Maxwell full credit for the invention, the actual patent document named George W.
