Milking Time is a poem from the children’s book Visit to the Farm by Koerner & Hayes, 1896. Here is my original scan (with minor edits) of the poem from the book.
Here is a black and white clipart version of the adorable image from the poem.

I just wanted to thank you for always including two things with your images: the original version with its’ text “go-with” and your wonderfully “cleaned-up” versions! I love the old advertisement write ups and the school book verses and the lovely old poems with cute images. I also like that you cut all this out for a simpler version of the cute image all by itself ~ you do such an outstanding job with your blog!! Thank you again!

I thought so too Angela. I say that a lot but the images I choose to share are the ones I love. 🙂

This is a lovely image! Thank you! I’ve been searching for your cats to see if I missed any last time, and I didn’t have this one. Thanks!
