Ok, here we have in Finland a Milk platform with number 263. Does that mean the family at 263 drink all that milk. Or are they sending milk.
Suriname hade the same idea before. If you have a cow or cows you could put it on your table and it would be collected.

Well, this is history, but they use this platform as a decorative sign to the farm. - They sent milk to dairies like this 50-60 years ago in Finland, trucks collected this kind of churns and drove them to dairies. Since then the milk is being collected by milk tank trucks which come directly to the farm and its tanks.
The number is the address of the farm, 2630 meters from the cross road of a bigger road.
