No sense crying over spilled milk, especially if it is on a #flashbackfriday!

Shown in this image is a horse-drawn milk cart and four individuals covered with an umbrella advertising “Tower Surface Cultivators.” The wagon is filled with cream cans used to haul milk or cream from the farm to a local creamery to be made into various dairy products. The wagon is possibly going to the Union Dairy Company located at 216-218 South Church Street, Rockford, Illinois.
