Milwaukee is known for beer, sausage, sauerkraut and its famous after-product, Milorganite. It's a dry fertlizer sold around the country, including Home Depot in The VIllages. It is a favorite of golf courses because it is natural and relatively slow acting. I've smelled it being used on our courses. It has a distintive oder immediately after application but rapidly dissipates.
I guess the motto of Milwaukee Seweage Commission is; "What goes around, comes around."
