- Recipe Booklet, "Carnation Company, It Whips! Irradiated Carnation Milk," circa 1935 - In 1899, Elbridge Amos Stuart developed his evaporated milk product -- his alternative to fresh milk, which was quick to sour.

- Milk Maid Milk Carton - The quest for a shatter-proof milk container prompted John Van Wormer to patent a paper carton in 1915. Many processors and distributors continued to use breakable glass bottles, but, after 1937, mechanized production made the disposable, wax-coated folded cartons inexpensive and indispensable liquid containers. The iconic design, a box with a gable-end top that, when opened, creates a pouring spout, remains the industry standard today.
