THE VALUE OF THE DAIRY COW
Is lnestimable and the Uses
of Unbelievably Wide
Range.

The products of the dairy are per-
haps the most useful articles included
IN the human diet. A meal made up
OF dishes into which no product of the
dairy cow enters would not be such as
to inspire ''the turnpike road to
peoples hearts find lies through their
mouths, or | mistake mankind"
Take away the butter for the bread,
the cream for the coffee and the por-
ridge, the shortening in the crust and
the biscuits, the milk in the gravy and
in the puddings. the cream for the
dessert and the various kinds of cheese
which please and satisfy, then take
away the cup of milk fer the little one
and the meal that would be left would
be neither tempting nor nutritious.
The health of our people depends SO
much upon an adequate supply of pure
dairy products that even a scarcity is
always attended by suffering and death.
Butter is sometimes referred to as a
luxury. This is a mistake. Butter is
not luxury but one of the necessities
of life and its composition is such that
nothing can take its place and perform
the same functions. 1t is nature $
product compounded in the maternal
organism and the process is in ac-
cordance with natures law, a law which
man can initiate but cannot understand.
Man can manufacture from various fats
and oils substitute for butter but it
cannot take the place of natures
product because man cannot UNDER
stand the needs of the human body as
nature understands them.
The animal body is developed best
when nourshed by foods which have
been little manipulated by man and
machinery. Dairy products are, as a
rule, consumed nearly as nature pro-
duced them. This is particularly true
with milk upon which the growing
body must depend. In the case of
butter only a small percentage of other
products are added to the fat extracted
from the milk. Man only manipulates
it in order put it into convenient shape
for use. 1t can still be termed a
product of nature designed as only
nature can design for use as food by
the human body.

FIND OUT The Kind of Food That VIII Keep You Well.

The true way is to find out what is best to eat and drink, and then cultivate a taste for those things instead of poison- ing ourselves with improper. indigestibie food, etc.
