What is claimed is: 1. A plastic container comprising a bottom wall, front, rear, and side walls extending vertically from said bottom wall defining a chamber, a top wall covering a substantial portion of said chamber, a neck platform extending upwardly from said top wall adjacent said front wall and having a circular pouring spout with an open end, means connected to said platform defining an air passageway from said spout to said chamber, said platform including a guiding neck portion connected to said top wall below said spout and having a curved horizontal ledge as viewed from the open end of said spout and opening toward said front wall, whereby during a pouring operation said ledge directs liquid from said chamber over the front edge of said spout away from the rear edge of said spout thereby permitting air to enter the rear of said spout into said air passageway and said chamber, said ledge extending outwardly from the axis of the spout and being vertically spaced above said top wall, and vertical reinforcing means extending between said ledge and said top wall to hold said spout in a substantially level position. 2. The plastic container of claim 1, said reinforcing means including a plurality of vertical columns spaced around said ledge. 3. The plastic container of claim 2, said columns being located on a diametral line of said spout which is generally parallel to said front wall. 4. The plastic container of claim 3, said columns being formed as outwardly curved interruptions in said ledge. 5. The plastic container of claim 4, comprising a horizontal reinforcing bar molded within each interruption. 6. The plastic container of claim 3, wherein said means defining said air passageway is a hollow handle extending from said platform to said rear wall. 7. The plastic container of claim 6, comprising a vertical reinforcing web extending between the front of said handle and said top wall. 8. A plastic container comprising a bottom wall, side wall means extending vertically from said bottom wall defining a chamber, a top wall covering a substantial portion of said chamber, a neck platform extending upwardly from said top wall and having a circular pouring spout with an open end, means connected to said platform defining an air passageway from said spout to said chamber, said platform including a guiding neck portion connected to said top wall below said spout and having a curved horizontal ledge as viewed from the open end of said spout and opening toward said front wall, whereby during a pouring operation said ledge directs liquid from said chamber over the front edge of said spout away from the rear edge of said spout thereby permitting air to enter the rear of said spout into said air passageway and said chamber, said ledge extending outwardly from the axis of the spout and being vertically spaced above said top wall, and vertical reinforcing means extending between said ledge and said top wall to hold said spout in a substantially level position. 9. The plastic container of claim 8, said reinforcing means including a plurality of vertical columns spaced around said ledge. 10. The plastic container of claim 9, said columns being located on a laterally extending diametral line of said spout. 11. The plastic container of claim 10, said columns being formed as outwardly curved interruptions in said ledge. 12. The plastic container of claim 11, comprising a horizontal reinforcing bar molded within each interruption. 13. The plastic container of claim 9, wherein said means defining said air passageway is a hollow handle extending from said platform to said rear wall. 14. The plastic container of claim 13, comprising a vertical reinforcing web extending between the front of said handle and said top wall. 15. A plastic container comprising a bottom wall, front, rear, and side walls extending vertically from said bottom wall defining a chamber, a top wall covering a substantial portion of said chamber, a neck platform extending upwardly from said top wall adjacent said front wall and having a circular pouring spout with an open end, a hollow handle connected to said platform defining an air passageway from said spout to said chamber, said platform including a guiding neck portion connected to said top wall below said spout and having a curved horizontal ledge as viewed from the open end of said spout and opening toward said front wall, whereby during a pouring operation said ledge directs liquid from said chamber over the front edge of said spout away from the rear edge of said spout thereby permitting air to enter the rear of said spout into said air passageway and said chamber, said ledge extending outwardly from the axis of the spout and being vertically spaced above said top wall, and a plurality of vertical reinforcing columns extending between said ledge and said top wall to hold said spout in a substantially level position. 16. The plastic container of claim 15, said columns being located on a diametral line of said spout which is generally parallel to said front wall. 17. The plastic container of claim 16, said columns being formed as outwardly curved interruptions in said ledge. 18. The plastic container of claim 17, comprising a horizontal reinforcing bar molded within said each interruption. 19. The plastic container of claim 15, comprising a vertical reinforcing web extending between the front of said handle and said top wall.
