Pretty sure it's a tooled top as the seem fades as it approaches the top of the bottle. The maker's mark is on the base, I believe it reads, "F.B. Co"Local bottles are always super tough to research. I always suggest that people find local bottle clubs for IDs and valuations.
See if it is machine made or a tooled top. There are many discussions about how to figure this out if you don't know already. Secondly, look for any manufacturer's marks. Check the heel, base, and occasionally on the neck or lip. Finding a mark can be tough at times so look through a bright light. Feel free to post your findings, I'm very willing to help you out with this.
Best of luck
Wow, that's an old milk. In my area (Hawaii) tooled milks are highly sought after and extremely valuable. Pints and half-pints are most common with gills (1/4 pints) and quarts being much rarer. Each locality has varying levels of rarity so you really gotta check with someone in your area who would know.Pretty sure it's a tooled top as the seem fades as it approaches the top of the bottle.

F.B. co. closed in 1893 so your milk is pretty old. Check out their sha page.
