If MILK IS ESSENTIAL FOOD FOR CHILDREN SHOULD BE KEPT IN THEIR DIET AS LONG AS IT IS POSSIBLE. BUTTER-FAT IS NEEDED Milk Contains the Food Elements in Available Form For Ready Digestion. For the proper nourishment of the child it is essential that milk should be kept in the diet as Ion« a e possi ble, according to the Food Adminis tration. Not only does it contain all the essential food elementa in the most available form for ready diges tion, but the recent scientific discov eries show it to be especially rich in certain properties that alone render growth possible. This essential quality makes it al so of special value in the sick room. In hospitals it has also been shown that the wounded recover more rap idly when they have milk. For- the purpose of stimulating growth, and especially in children, butter fat has no substitute. During thlB winter when much agitation arose in some of the larger cities over the price of milk, which was advanced from two or three cents per quart by reason of the rapid rise in the cost of feed and labor, many families among the poorer classes were found giving their children tea and coffee instead of milk. Such methods of feeding fail to nourish the child properly. The widest possible publicity should be carried on through public channels to bring these essential facta to the at tention of all mothers. In spite of the shortage of milk in Germany, that country has at all has ards maintained the milk ration of the children and In the hospitals, even though to do no has meant that the adult population has had to fore go largely its use. In a "safety first" health campaign it must be remem bered that it should be "children first"—L. 8. U. Press Bulletin. MILK IS CHEEP AT FIFTEEN CENTS Housewives Should 8tudy Ite Feed Value Before Deciding te Give Up Ite Use. Milk at 15 cents a quart Is sa cheap a source of protein as sirloin steak at 34.3 cents a pound, or eggs at 41.9 cents a dozen. Milk at the same price is as cheap a source of energy as sir loin steak at 21.2 cents a pound or eggs at 20 cents a dozen. Protein and energy are two important necessities for which we eat food. Milk contains the body-building materials—protein and mineral substances, such as lime and phosphorous—needed to renew the body wastes and promote growth by forming new tissues and fluids; and it also supplies energy for carrying on body functions. The average person, the country over, uses a little more than half a pint of milk daily. It Is said that the consumption of milk per capita In the city of New Orleans is only about one half of that of other large cities. This quantity can be increased very profit ably when safe milk is available. Many persons think of milk- only as a bev erage, but if they understood that It is in reality a nourishing food they would increase the allowance. Econ omy in diet does not always depend on limiting the use of certain foods, but it is sometimes a question of ac tually increasing the use of foods which furnish nutritive material at rel atively low cost. Milk belongs to the latter dass and the housewife would do well tö study its food value and decide whether her family is using as much as it should.—Extension Divi: sion, Louisiana State University. KEEP THE HERD BULL IN GOOD CONDITION The bull is usually the most valu able member of the dairy herd and should have good care and attention. He should be provided with comfort able quarters, which should include a shed or barn to protect him from cold and heat; he should be fed all the roughage be will consume,' some succu lence and a sufficient quantity of grain to keep him In good physical, condition. If possible, the bull should be placed in a pasture lot that will not only pro-i vide grass but also plenty of room for exercise. j • • G . : * The herd bull should be handled carefully and never trifled with. It Is best to allow only one, man to- handle the bull. This attendant should not fear him and should be strong enough to manage the animal, properly. " Af ter the bull is old enough for service, which Is not under one year of age, hç should have a strong ring placed in his nose and be handled with a staff. The herd bull should be groomed and brushed in order to keep his hair and skin in good condition. He should be kept separate from and never al lowed to run with the dairy herd, and should be allowed to serve a oow only once while she is in heat.— Ç.
