First few years milk was shipped in the stake bed trucks but wasn't long till found out that would not work. In summer the milk was not cooled enough to stand the heat till delivery and spoiled or in winter it froze and was no good if and when they got it thawed out. Those beds were insulated so in the summer what coolness was in the milk from cooling it in a water tank, no milk coolers at that time and also no electricity, so it would still be good when it arived at the plant. In winter they kept the milk from freezing in the cans. Cans are all we ever had up to when the dairy heard left in 1980. This is in Ohio.

In that picture I see a Chevy, IHC, Ford and I believe a Reo.
