domestic Science Expert Tells OF
Proper and Improper Foods for
Baby

FOLLOWING is the summary of an
article on Infant Diet" by Miss e.
M Mathews, assistant professor of
todds and cookery in the domestic
science department of the w. S. c.:
After calling attention to the re-
sponslbilities OF mothers and her in
terest in helping them to meet those
responsibilities, Miss Matthews stat
ed that science had determined how
much of the various nutrimen.s are
required to maintain the muscles
and other body tissues and to enable
the stomach, heart, lungs and other
organs to perform their proper func-
lions. Five classes of food are
needed: fats, proteins, carbohydrates
SUCH as sugar and starch-mineral
water and water. Fats, carbohydrates
and proteins will all furnish energy.
but the proteins alone will build
muscle tissue and repair the body.
No other food can replace the min
eral elements, which enter into the
composition OF the bones. But not
all proteins will support growth.
The study of child nutrition should
begin before it is born. Poor food
for the mother may result in an i'm
perfectly developed offspring. For
example, the teeth begin to develop
at about the fourth month and i'm
proper food for the mother has been
known to cause bad teeth in her
child. A well mixed diet containing
plenty of milk, eggs and fresh vege-
tables is advisable. The amount of
food required is but little above the
normal, for the child at this period
requires but a small amount each
day. During pregnancy the child re-
ceiVes its food directly from the
blod of its mother. After birth it
still depends on her for its food.
When the child is born it is called
upon to prepare its food for use and
the work must be done by a weak,
imperfectly developed and hitherto
unused digestive system. The stom-
ach is small, its muscle walls are
weak, and some of the digestive
juices, especially those necessary to
digest starch, are not present. There
is scantiness of saliva in the mouth
and it does not contain the element
necessary for the digestion of starch.
About the third or fourth month the
saliva increases in amount, and by
six months the pancreatic juice and

MISS MAYE YOUNG
WEEDS CALIFORNIAN
Only Daughter of Pioneer Family Is
Married to Louis L. Snyder
of Sacramento

A pretty wedding occurred
Wednesday morning at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. Henry j. Young, about
10 miles west of Pullman, when their
only daughter, Maye, became the
bride of Louis e. Snyder of Sacra-
mento, Cal, the ceremony being per-
formed by the Rev. w. G. M. Hays
of the Presbyterian church in the
presence of relatives and a few
friends.
A wedding dinner was served i'm
mediately following the ceremony,
after which the happy couple went
to ColfaX and took the evening train
to Spokane, where they will spend
several days. Later they will go to
Seattle and other Sound points to
remain month before going 20 Sac
ramento, where they will be at home
after November 10.
MIR. Snyder is a successful farmer
of Sacramento, but plans TO retire
from actual farming within the next
year. His bride has grown to
womanhood in Pullman and has a
wide circle of close friends, who
know her as a charming young lady
with a happy disposition. She Sc
cured her education in the Pullman
schools and the State College, and
for the past three years has spent
considerable of her time in Cali
fornia, where she met the young
man who Wednesday became her
husband.
The out of town guests at the we'd
ding were Mrs. Martha May, grand
mother of the bride, and her
daughter, Matte, of Dayton, and
Miss Marjorie Cooke of Ventura,
Cal.

of the contracting parties in wishing
tn IA q long life of happiness aid

Groom most heartily on his selec-
ton of a bride.

TAlLORS LECTURE
MADE A GREAT HIT
Gave Much Useful Information I'm "A
Short Address Which Everyone
Could Understand

Over hundred farmers and bust
ness men attended the lecture by DR..
w. e. Taylor, Monday afternoon in
the X. of z. hall and the general con-
census of opinion seemed to be that
1t was the most forteful, practical
and interesting discussion Of scien-
title farming ever delivered in Pull
man. DR.. Taylor has a splendid
voice and is a natural orator. He
also understands the art OF condens-
ing his ideas into a few concise sem
fences and COUGHING them in lam
guage which all can understand.
He was introduced by President
Bryan and after the lecture a unani-
nous vote of thanks was extended
to him by the audience.
He was followed by w. II. Miller
of Spokane, editor of the Retail Lum-
herman, who aroused much amuse-
ment by his funny stories and spark
ling epigrams.
A summary of DR.. Taylor's talk
will be published in The Herald next
week.
