Dairy Products Aid Recipe Preparation By BARBARA A. MINTER Even though I didn't grow up on one of North Carolina's fine dairy farms, I can still remember warm summer evenings when I would joyfully follow my aunt down to the barn. It was always a treat when my aunt would allow me to try my hand at milking. When the milking was finished, we would always leave some milk for the cats at the barn. Back at the house, my grandmother would strain the milk, later separate the cream and make butter. Today's modern technology has changed the way dairy farmers milk and process dairy products. The "average" North Carolina dairy farmer milks 97 cows twice a day. The average dairy cow produces enough milk and ice cream for over forty Ameri cans each year. Dairy production ranks sixth among North Carolina farm commodities. In the past as now, dairy farming means much to a country's economy. During the Middle Ages, the family cows were so important to Europe's economy that they were kept in the house during the evening. Even royalty allowed their cows to roam the castle halls at night. In this state, there are over 1,500 grade A dairy farms. Within hours of just one milking, thousands of gallons of wholesome milk are delivered to local markets. This supply of milk provides a continual source of fresh dairy products for you and your family. June is Dairy Month. And here in North Carolina, you can find some of the nation's most modern and efficient dairies. The North Carolina Department of Agriculture along with myself salute the Dairy in dustry for the excellent job it does. Try one of these recipes to include more of those fresh and wholesome dairy products in your diet. BRAN MUFFINS IS oz.
