Milkmaid Myth
,-:, " ' .4
BLACKSBURG, Va.(-' Where
are you going, my-pretty maid?'
"I'm NOT going a-milking;
sir, - she said.
'"At least, not in this part of
the US, says R. G.' Connelly, Vir
ginia Tech extension dairyman.
. Milkmaids seem to exist only
in nursery rhymes and folklore.
Connelly says he . doesn't recall
having seen a single one in many
years on his job, and. he doesn't
expect women to supply the an
swer for the serious labor short
age on dairy farms because of the
war and increased industrial ac
tivity - ; -
And . there's no reason why
women should have to milk
cows," Connelly ' declares. More
mechanization is a better- solu
tftra. He calculates a man and
two boys can care for 50 cows,
milked twice daily, I on a fully
equipped farm provided they
work-long hcuijs and without any
lost motion.
