News EditorGovernment, Ice Cream

How many businesses can say the president of the U.S. has sang the praises of their product? Paul Manning, the owner of Manning’s Ice Cream & Milk in Dalton, Pa. can. During a recent campaign stop, President George W. Bush and Rep. Don Sherwood visited the Manning’s fourth generation dairy farm.

“This man knows how to make good ice cream,” the president said. A reporter asked to know what kind of ice cream the commander in chief preferred. “Pralines and cream; I strongly recommend it.”

“No matter what your political position, it’s still pretty impressive that a sitting president comes and visits you,” Manning said.
