MILK BETTER THAN
s|RL0|N STEAK
Twice as Much Nutriment in Former
When Compared With Beef Cost
ing Same Amount.

II you wish to be healthy and hearty
and at the same time save money,
drink milk!
Scientists have been investigating
food values since the price OF food
stuffs has appreciated so greatly. and
they find that milk. In addition to the
virtue OF combining various food es-
sential In easily digested form. Is
about the cheapest food there is as
prices go now.
At six to seven Cents a quart. the
prices that prevail In Detroit. milk Is
cheaper than meat. fish, or most OF
the delicate fruits and vegetables 1t
is as cheap as grain and contains
more easily assimilable elements
Health Officer Kiefer has the data that
bears on the very important subject
of food values in relation to prices.
milk Is a natural and easily as
simulated food,' he says. 1t contains
all the necessary elements instead OF
having an undue proportion OF one
sort. as with most other foods.
"A pound of beef contains 1,120
calories, the units of food measure
ment. while a quart OF milk has $50
calories. At 25 cents pound for the
sirloin beef and seven cents a quart
for milk, we get more food value from
the same money expended for milk
Ten cents worth of milk at seven
cents quart would give US IS calories
while the same amount for sirloin
steak would give but 410 calories.
Following out the same line OF re-
search, DR.. Kiefer finds that ten cents
worth of strawberries contains 215
calcries. and the same amount invest
ed in Goldfish gives us 220 calories
while a dime invested in choice por-
lions of pork at 20 cents a pound
would give us 715 Galleries A pound
of mackerel contains 900 calories.
while two eggs have 1875 calories.

WANTS WEED LAW CHANGED.
Grindley Would Have Cost Of Cutting
Spread on Tax Rolls.

A change in the weed tax law by
which the city will spread certain
appropriation on the tax rolls for the
cutting OF weeds within the city is
proposed by Aid Grindley. Under the
repeal movement by proposing a
charter amendment, fixing the manner
of attending to weeds.
1T costs more now for inspection
printing and other incidental expenses
than 1t does for cutting the weeds,
says Grindley I'VE ought to have a
system that would be less cumbersome
and expensive. The city always loses
money now. and II is drain on the
contingent fund
Another thing that Grindley would
like to have changed is the regulation
by which big printing bills are run UP
for small items that come before com.

KOCH BLAMES ASSESSORS.


City Treasurer Max c. Koch has not
been able to have his clerks make on!
advance tax receipts as was done last

extra work which fell upon the treas

spring. Last year the tax receipts
were prepared in advance for all the
wards, from the First to Tenth. in

be done now.
Il have not had the necessary helE
from the assessors Office" says Koch
ITO get this plan Of making out the re
ceipts ahead In working order II would
be necessary to have the names OF
property owners correctly on the
books. The state law provides that
the assessors shall copy the names
correctly on their books and keep
track OF all deeds fled in the register
OF deeds office. This has not been
done, however. If we could do so, we
would get the receipts all ready ex
cept the amount OF the tax due, and
have only that to fill in when the tax
PAYERS come In with their money"
The innovation last year was the
means of saving great deal OF time
in the rush to pay taxes.

day night, in his sermon on the
Model Young Woman"
"A girl may win high athletic hon
ors," he said. But men are looking
for women who can toss hot biscuits
over the bone plate. girls who don't
have to ask neighbor the difference
between a quilt and a washtub. Sucn
a girl may not be an accomplished
pianist. but she can pour out tuneful
melodies over the sewing machine,
while playing The Song Of the Shire.
THE kiss Of a modest young woman
is one OF the greatest safeguards that
can be thrown about a young man.
The model young woman Is thought
full. She appreciates the efforts OF
her father TO keep a roof over her
head and clothes on her back. She
does not sit at the piano with he-
hair hanging over her shoulders while
ner mother does the work.

Those peculiar check transactions

he was incapable of committing a
crime of any sort. let alone the murder
OF his grandmother.

the crime, are those with reference
