We have made below an estimate of the milk used in 

 the United States in 1878 for culinary purposes, on a basis 

 of a population of 47,000,000 people, divided by five, giving 

 9,400,000 families. Now if we give each one of these 

 families of five persons one pint of milk per day it will call 

 for 1,175,000 gallons per day for the United States, or 

 428,875,000 gallons for the year. This, at ten cents per 

 gallon, would come to ;^42,887,500.
