Dairy Products .. Food.

The products OF the dairy are per-
haps the most useful articles includ-
ed 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 I 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 for 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 suf-
fering and death.
Butter Is sometimes referred to as
u luxury. This is mistake. Butter
Is not luxury but one of the neces-
stiles Of life. and its composition IL
such that nothing can take its place
and perform the same functions. II
Is natures product compounded In
the maternal organism and the pro-
law, a law which man can initiate
but cannot understand Man can
manufacture from various fats and
oils a substitute for butter but 1t
cannot take the place Of natures pro-
duct because man cannot understand
the needs OF the human body as ma
ture understands them.
The animal body is developed best
when nourished 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 Ahe case OF
butter only small percentage OF
other products are addsd to the fat
extracted from the milt. Man only
manipulates 1t In order to put II In
convenient shape for use. II can
still be termed a product OF nature
designed as only nature can design
for use as food by the human body.
