Science of the Balanced Ration.

AT a convention of dairymen. in a
discussion of the balanced ration a
speaker said:
All animals require in the food
enough substance to meet the ex-
penses of the body in carrying on its
physiological functions. Every move
ment OF muscle, the beating of the
heart, breathing, ETC., REQUIRES the
expenditure of energy that comes
largely from certain compounds in
the food, which compounds we call
protein. We know then that If an
animal is to live and work, the food
must contain protein sufficient tn
meet their constant expenses. The
harder an animal works the greater
these expenses, hence the more pro.
teln must the food contain.
Again, we give carbohydrates and
Iats TO accomplish another purpose.

(copyrght. Loo. by Daily story Pub. co..

Miss Gilchrist had boarded an eie-
waited train on her way to the shop
ping district. II was crowded with
men and women going to business,
but she was fortunate enough to get
a corner seat, next to those running
crosswise.
1t was not yet nine o'clock, but Miss
Gilchrist was anxious to get to the
shops early and have her purchases
sent home before night. There were
several things, an evening waist or
two, fashionable wrap and stylish
hat, that she must have before she
could let herself be seen by anybody.
Anybody meant Horace Whiting,
the dashing New Yorker whom she
had met the summer before at her
home in Pineyille. His advent had
made her extremely critical of the
men she had known all her life, par
ticularly of oliver Leighton, the
greatest catch in Pineville. At any
time previous she joyfully would have
taken oliver for better or worse, had
she been able to bring him to the
point of asking her to, but now she
began to keep him at bay with dis
Greet mixture of coyness and coquetry
that bewildered him, and naturally his
ardor grew as she became Indifferent.
Whiting was certainly no better look
ing than her Pineville admirer, and
not half as well bred, but his air of
knowing 1t all, his clothes and the way
he wore them quite dazzled her. She
began to have brilliant visions of life
In New York that made Pineville
seem unendurably dull and tame.
She couldn't say that Whiting had
made love to her, but he had taken
her driving, singled her out on every
occasion, paid her many fiorid compli-
ments, and made her promise again
and again that she would let him
know the minute she came to New
York. So she could easily picture his
delight at learning that she was here,
and that he would have an opportun-
ity to entertain her as he had so often
assured her he longed to do. Whether
anything serious would follow she.
of course, could not tell, but she had
no intention Of binding herself to any
one else until she had given Whiting
a chance to meet her again Mean
while she had obtained a refusal on
Leighton, to whom she had promised
an answer within couple of weeks.
The intervening time she would spend
in New York, and thus fit herself to
come to a proper decision.
Miss Gilchrist's pleasing meditations
on new frocks and hats and the thea
tiers and operas to which she would
wear them, were rudely broken in
upon by some ones trampling on her
toes. Two men were pushing roughly
by several women in their eagerness
to get possession of the cross seat next

Adulteratinq Dairy Products

A0ulIcFdIiHH bdUy FiSNNS
The adulteration Of dairy products
does not mean only the putting in OF
bulky substances to deceive the Gus
toner that finally buys them. The
term has a much broader meaning in
the view of the law-making powers
that have attempted to deal with the
subject. Milk may be adulterated by
the addition of water, and that Is the
most common way of adulterating it,
but the man that adds any preserva-
tive adulterates his milk and is blam-
able under the law. The adulteration
with preservatives is more harmful
to the people than the adulteration by
means of added water. When the
water is added a little money is
filched from the pocket Of the con-
sumner, but in adulterating by means
of adding formaldehyde the producer
takes the health away from the one
that uses it, if the adulteration be
heavy or il the consumer be weak.
Adulteration of butter consists gen.
orally of adding what is known as
neutral oil and selling it for butterfat.
But of late years other kinds of adul-
terations have been brought in, many
of which are more subtle than that OF
adding foreign substance to the but
ter. One kind of adulteration is to
add more water than the butter would
naturally contain by working the but
ter at a high temperature. A second
kind of adulteration is done by churn-
ing at a high temperature, thus add
ing a large quantity of casein with
the butterfat. The resultant butter
is largely cheese and will develop a
cheesey flavor in a few weeks if not
used. In either case direct fraud has
been committed on the consumer. Not
only should every honest man refrain
from adulterating his butter, but the
officers of the law should be keen in
hunting out violators of the law
against adulteration.
The common way of adulterating
cheese has been to add neutral oil
and other compounds not butter or
casein to take the place of butter fat
that had been removed. That has
been largely stopped by the officials,
but the new way is to skim off part of
the butterfat from the milk that is to
be made tato cheese, giving a full
cream" cheese that is not full cream,
but has in e too much casein. 1t is, in
reality, skim cheese, even though
the milk from which it is made may
be what is known as a three per
cent" milk.
