q HEALTHFUL Drink.
One of the Products OF Il Dairy whose
Value Is Not Appreciated.


One of the Products OF Il Dairy WHOSE
Value Is Not Appreciated.
Buttermilk is one of the products o.
the dairy that has value not appre
ciated by those who can not be induced
to try it in different ways Most men
know how il is sometimes used TO good
advantage in making cheese. while all
use it more on less rs food for pigs
and calves. With the latter 1t often
does more harm than good. because 1t
is not fed with judgment. As a tood,
or rather a drink for human beings 1t
is most excellent. except with few Tor
whom it has Objectionable qualities.
The trouble with getting people to drink
it is one simply OF fashion or custom.
In the South buttermilk drinking Is so
common that on a large plantation be-
fore the war il was fun to see tie wom-
en- carry the nails Of it to feed to the
pigs when troops of little negro chill
lren would swarm around her and in
sist that their little stGTachs be hiicu
before the pigs got their share. On the
tables Of the rich Town there this same
buttermilk is draw with the glass half
filed with the rio hest cream, and Is
thus considered princely drink. In
the large cities IT the North it Is be-
coming quite the fashion to drink but
termilk in warm weather, 80 that now
all restaurants IN summer have il on
sale, or at least they claim to, but we
are sorry TO say it is the poorest stuff
that was ever called by that name and
is evidently made Of nothing but sour
skim milk The best Of buttermilk for
drinking purposes is made from rather
sour cream and the butter gathered IN
the old-fashiOned way in the churn, so
that there is considerable butter left
in the milk Remember we are writ
ing about buttermilk and not about the
best way to make butter Unfortunate
