Sales of Other Products by Producer-Distributors 



In addition to the sale of milk many prodacer-distributors sold some other 

 products from their farms. Such products as cream and eggs were ordinarily- 

 distributed to customers on the regular retail route, while poultry and vegetables 

 were largely sold from the farm or delivered to a market place in the city. The 

 largest percentage of producers selling additional products was found to be in 

 the Attleboro area, whereas the largest sale per producer was in Gardner area. 

 The latter, however, was due to the fact that several producers sold most of their 

 milk in the form of cream. (Table 3.)
