What Children Should Eat.
THE hest eat for children Of all
ages are crisp bacon. broiled and roast
beef. lamb. mutton. chicken and white
fish. II meat broths are used it should
be remembered that they are valuable
chiefly AS stimuIants and contain very
little food substance" declares Miss
Cora K BinZel. instructor in the ex.
tension division Of the University of
Wisconsin.
Between the fifth and tenth years
the diet should still include a large
amount Of milk. New foods are grad.
ually added until the child is eating
practically the same food as the adults
of the family. A well mixed diet. in
Guiding u reasonable amount of vege.
tables and well ripened fruits, Is al.
ways desirable. individual prefer
ences cannot always be overcome, but
careful training will do much toward
cultivating a taste for all kinds Of food.
lin the adoIescent period the large
amount Of food needed makes it i'm.
portant that it be Of an easily digested
kind. simple and rich in protein and
mineral salts. The average active boy
OF fourteen will need quite as much
food during the day as n grown man OF
sedentary habits.

Is n of the strongest arguments for
woman's ballot eve printed. The fact
that about 300. 900 babies under a year
old die annually in the United States
fully half Of them from preventable
causes-shows the great need of more
attention to child conservation. In
New Zealand, where nurses are sent
around to all mothers to teach them
how to keep their babies healthy, the
Infant death rate is the lowest in the
world.
Striking proof of the good mi and
tact OF Miss L%athrop's women investi-
gators is furnished by their success in
getting the information wanted. The
hrst investigation was made in Johns
town, Pa.
"A schedule was prepared for this in.

when the fly is abundant for a large
percentage Of the rye and barley crops

which to feed. naturally die of, and
this gives the few remaining flies all
opportunity to breed and increase in
numbers without mOlestation until
they finally become numerous again.
Wheat Is grown in every county In
Indiana. The number Of bushels rails
ell in 1911 ranged from $4,000 bushels
in Benton. which is a corn county. to
1901 600 bushels In Posey county. the

bushels. or an average Of 35.OOO,OOO
bushels in round numbers. 1t is esti-
mated that all average Of 10 per cent of
the, crop Is lost annually from the raw
lges Of the fly. This would amount to
100000 bushels. which at - cents
per buShel would make 81. 900 as
the annual loss to Indiana farmers
from this source. 1t will be more than
that this year.
