KILGORE President, Pine State Creamery Co. Back during the frantic days of World War I, military bases were popping up throughout the country. In Raleigh, plans were being made for the establishment of Camp Polk on the western outskirts of the city. When it was ready, the Army began preparing to send men to train for the fighting in the trenches of France and Germany. Rather suddenly, however, the movement of men and equipment was halted. The commanding officer of the new base, it seems, had learned that Raleigh offered no source of pasteurized milk. No milk, no base, he said rather firmly. Despite the critical need for training bases, the Army agreed with the commanding officer. After considerable negotiation, a small group of dairy farmers joined with N. C. State College to set up a small Creamery on the college campus. Throughout the war, the facility provided badly- needed pasteurized milk to the military men. When the war ended, the same group of men decided to continue the enterprise as a private business. Under the direction of Mr. Alvin Reid, Pine State Creamery Company was established at 116 South Salisbury Street in Raleigh. In 1932, Dr. B. W. Kilgore became owner of the company and expanded its services into many other areas of the State. Each year has brought further expansion and more products and services from the company. As we plan for further growth and expansion, one can't help but wonder what would have hap- pened if it had not been for the stubbornness of that Army ofiicer more than four decades ago. A gage,
