Here are a few things i turned up in a surface farm dump this spring when i went and checked it out,only spent 2 hours there, nothing special but they all cleaned up very nice...only one BIM slick med on the left and i found the 2 laboratory stirring rods pretty neat too. The only mystery is the bottle i posted a few pictures of...roughly 5 inches tall, very thin glass,no mold seams,looks like its pontiled but i cant tell if its a suction mark or not(it has a sharp edge),rolled lip....at first glance i would say a small milk but i have no idea.anybody ever see one? I hope my pictures are clear enough. Cheers everyone!

That clear bottle is interesting, it looks like a pontil to me. Definitely not a suction scar if it's got a rolled lip, since suction scars are only found on ABM bottles. I don't think it's got anything to do with milk though, maybe a pickle or mustard jar?

If it was pickles they would have to be those mini pickles lol...you could be right on the mustard, do you think it had a cork?

Yeah I was thinking of the small kind of pickles, maybe capers or something like that. And yeah I assume it would have had a cork or something similar to seal it.
