THE GREAT FOOD
=" '"|" VALUES IG&S OF MILK
By Prof. r. NJ Washburn, Univ. of Minnesota.

OF Americas 2,25O,OG0 annual baby
crop, &C per cent or 100000 are bot.
tie fed. Two thirds of our annual
baby crop fed on cows milk has eight
times as great mortality as is found
in the other one third.
In America we can feed pigs more
scientifically than we do our men.
The commercial necessity for auth.
oritative knowledge on these sub.
jects has led to q transportation
of public funds and We now have
thoroughgoing and conclusive inves-
tigation being carried on with the
feeding of all classes OF farm animals
the economical production of tobacco
beer and wine-substances which can
be only detrimental to humans
while the investigation of the nutri-
tion OF milk as 1t applies to humans
has been wholly neglected by every
State agency. Milk values in the
past we have been based upon State
or breed averages and have not been
based upon an investigational basis.
Tie COW is only a converter. She
takes rough food which can not be
digested by human agency and trans
forms is so that COW creates milk
out of nothing. She can only make
it out of what she takes into her
system A quart Of Jersey or Guern-
sey milk naturally yielded Is worth
so per cent more than a quart of the
average standardized milk offered on
our city markets.
The whole American public is liv-
ing under a delusion regarding the
cooperative nutritive values of vari-
Gus foods. Every food should con-
tain the three essentials-ash, pro-
TEN and energy. On this basis skim
milk does not suffer in comparison
with lean meat. It does not suffer
in comparison with some of our veg
etable foods, for instance-the radish
Is 81 per cent water. while milk is
only 81 per cent. The same state
ment is true in a greater or lesser
degree in many of our other vegeta-
bles and II is to be remembered tlat
the vegetable nutrients are not COM
parable in digestibility to the nutri- /
ents contained in milk.
When the American housewife pays
30 cents a pound for porterhouse
steak, she is really paying so cents
a pound for the dry nutrients. When
she pays 20 cents for round steak
she is paying 60 cents a pound for
dry nutrients. Hamburger steak is
more costly on dry nutrient basis |
than Is round steak or porterhouse
however, tae cheap grades Of ham,
burger, which usually contain more
fat, are more valuable than those |
which are composed of the leaner |
meats and therefore sell at a higher |
price. Eggs which are reputed to |
be of exceptional food value contain |
II per cent waste in the form of smell |
and skin. Seventy-eight per cent of |
the remainder is water; therefore, |
when we pay 80 cents a dozen for
eggs. we are paying 81 pound for |
the food nutrients contained in them.
With oysters at 40 cents a quart, we
pay So 80 a pound for the digestible |
nutrients contained in them. Ham at !
20 cents a pound costs us 60 cents !
a pound for the food nutrients.
Certified milk at 10 cents quart |
is cheaper as far as food values are
concerned than 25 cent ham. SAM. |

growing children are very often de-
| prived of milk in order that they
may have ham, beefsteak or other
food articles which are not so suited
/ to their diet as the milk.
Milk has been found to be not only
the most digestible food but to be a
helper in digesting other foods. Re-
cent investigations in the composition
of milk show that 1t holds certain di-
gestive bodies that unlock the nutri-
ents in other foods.
In a long series of experiments
with young pigs carried on at the
university farm, It has been found
that If the food ration is richer than
one unit of protein to every three Of
energy in the form of fat, sugar and
starch, the pigs become too fat.
Where the fat in the milk fed exceed
ed to IL per cent, the pigs be-
came over fat. Such animals lack
ed stamina and vigor to such an eX-
tent that a nervous shock would Of
ten kill them. Pigs that got the
richest milk, thereby becoming the
latest, had the leanest blood in that
it had the most water in 1t. In the
cases where pigs received too many
energy units in their ration, their
livers became sluggish, clogged,
bloated and whitish in color.
A long series of experiments was
carried out with certain commercial
brands of sweetened condensed milk
that are being largely advertised as
being prepared especially for baby
foods. When the young pigs were
fed on this material, they made ex-
tremely rapid gains for short time,
but there was always a slump later
on. In all cases they became costive
due to a retaded condition of the Nv
er and the digestive system. 1t was
found there was not enough ash pro-
portionately to secure the best re-
suits. Where these condensed milks
were reinforced with calcium phos-
phate the bones of the animals were
found to be much stronger under APP
piled breaking tests. The average
gain in strength in the bones due to
this reinforcement, in the case of
nine pigs experimental on was "a
per cent in fifty.two days.
For children under an age that Will

To water milk having a high fat
content does not change its insult
able character for child feeding, for
the reason that the ash and protein
content in all milk has a certain def
mite relation to the fat contained in
that milk. Not only the common
people of America, but the medical
profession as well, are laboring un-
der fallacies regarding in FAINT feed
ing. Eminent authorities in the larg-
est hospitals are beginning to ac-
knowledge their ignorance and In

Fire Prevention
Is Planned

Features of forest protection in the
Pacific northwest this year are an
appeal to the public for assistance in
preventing the smoke nuisance which
will otherwise prejudice the stream
of visitors going to and from the San
Francisco exposition, and perfected
system of dry wind forecasts by the
U. S. Weather Bureau which will be
used by all protective agencies. State
officials and chambers of commerce
are sending out thousands of letters
emphasizing the importance of reduc-
ing the smoke evil.
Reports for June received by the
Western Forestry and Conservation
Association, the clearing house for
all private and official patrol sys-
tens from Montana to California, re-
cord practically no losses by forest
fires up to date, but no cessation of
preparation for the danger months OF
July and August. Most of the patrol
force is already on and within few
days over 1000 will be on duty in

Auto Funeral Car

The only auto funeral car in south
ern Oregon, if not in territory be-
tween Portland and Sacramento, has
recently been installed here by II. C.
Stock, undertaken. The car is an
underslung of fifty horse
power, adjusted to four speeds.
Carved panels add to the exterior
decoration, the finish being in light
gray effects. The interior is silk
lined throughout. The weight of the
car is $500 pounds, and its cost ap-
proximates $4,000. BY its installa-
tion here an innovation has been in
troduced which has become a fixture
in undertaking channels of metropoli-

year. The following applies to trees
from eight to ten, that have never
borne but should be fruiting:
I'VE shall now consider the trees
that are from eight to ten or twelve
years of age, which should be fruit
ing but have never borne. These
trees have almost always been over
stimulated. They have been over
pruned, over-tilled, over-irrigated;
they have had one or a combination
of stimuli given them which results
in forcing rank wood growth, produc-
ing heavy leaves, but little or no
fruit. The remedy is to remove the
stimulus, whatever it may be, and
prune several times a year.
Summer pruning for such trees
will come probably more about the
time one should prune the very young
trees; that is, along in June. At
each time when the terminal growth
has reached such a length that you
can see it is going to become excess
i've, 1t should be cut back and the
trees thinned out somewhat and the
following spring a little more thin
ming and pruning out may be done to
advantage. The application of sum-
mer pruning to these trees should be
largely merely a distribution of the
pruning over two periods, thus avoid
ing an excessive pruning. In very
rare cases could you expect direct re-
suits from such pruning. 1t will
come indirectly in bringing the trees
back to their normal balance. 1t Of
ten becomes necessary to reduce the
amount of tillage or irrigation given
such trees and in cases where they
are abnormally excessive it is some
times found advisable even to check
their growth by growing crops be-
tween the trees, as some hay or grain
crop"

QUESTION CLEARED UP.
Ashland Readers Can No Longer
Doubt the Evidence.

Again and again We have read Of
strangers in distant towns who have
been cured by this or that medicine.
But Ashland's pertinent question has
always been, Has anyone here in
Ashland been cured?" The word of
stranger living a hundred miles
away may be true, but it cannot have
the same weight with us as the word
of our own citizens, whom we know
and respect, and whose evidence we
can so easily prove.

OF THE WAR

That the wal in Europe is feeling
the impulse of the season and is deal
ing in death on a large scale is the
story that Is partially concealed be-
meath the meagre dispatches from the
several scenes of conflict.
The Beigians are operating on the
offensive from the North sea coast to
Dixmude and southwark along the
western line the French are on the
offensive. About Ypres, the Germans
are the attacking force, with the
British on the defensive.
In the Galician region, the Ger
mans and Austrians are on the often
sive and they have steadily pushed
the Russians back and taken a large
number of prisoners. The Russians
do not admit defeat, but confess
their inability to Withstand the as
saults of the enemy.
At the Dardaneltes and on the Cali
poll peninsula, the allies and the
Turks are locked in sanguinary en-
brace, with the outcome exceedingly
uncertain.
In these principal wal theatres the
armed conflict is raging and neither
side is really ahead so far as decisive
results r concerned.
Between now and the falling of the
autumn frosts q terrible toll of life
will be exacted and by the time win
ter comes one side or the other will
begin to exhibit those signs of ex-
haustion that must come before this
unprecedented war ends.-Huronite.
