HOW TO PREPARE cows
MILK FOR THE BABY

In this country cows milk is prac-
tically entirely used as substitute
for mothers milk. Its composition
is the same so far as the ingredients
go, but they vary greatly in quantity
and in their behavior.
All milks contain the three food
principles: (1) protein, (2) sugar, 90
fat. In cows milk these are so pro-
portioned and mixed as to be suitable
for calf but not for baby.
The protein is the part which forms
the curd. AS soon as cows milk
reaches the stomach, the protein is
percipitated in heavy and solid curds
which are so well known. Mothers
milk never forms this solid and indi-
gestible curd. In artificial feeding,
this trouble is modified by diluting,
by boiling, and by adding well cooked
starch.
The sugar which milk contains is
known as sugar or cane sugar. 1t is
a necessary constituent but should not
be added in excess as it makes fat,
fiabby babies.
Starches are usually classed with
sugar in talking about foods because
all starch is converted into sugar be-
fore it can be utilized by the child.
Starches should be given to the baby
in very small quantities up to the time
they begin to cut their teeth. Before
this time they are incapable of di-
costing it, and only trouble results
when much of it is given.
Fat is found in the cream of milk.
1t is easy to give baby too much,
consequently milk, like that of Jer-
sey cattle, is often too rich for easy
| digestion.
When it is certain that artificial
feeding must be resorted to, the first
step is to secure a good, clean supply

to DR.. M. P. Ravenel of the depart
ment of preventive medicine of the
University of Missouri at Columbia
The second is to provide clean uten-
sils for it's preparation. The uten-
sils usually required are a measuring
glass which will hold eight ounces
This must be graduated so that sin
gle ounces can be read Off; wide
mouth pitcher holding two quarts, pre-
ferably of enamel ware; a small fun
mel; ten feeding bottles; six rubber
nipples; tablespoon; an enamel OF
aluminium sauce pan; two bottle
brushes; sugar and absorbent cotton
1t is best also to buy a wire bottle
rack and have a package of borax a
hand for cleansing the bottles. Thes'
should be reserved exclusively in the
preparation of the baby's food.

HOME ECONOMICS
AT JOURNALISM WEEK

Those who believe that writers need
no knowledge of the subject on which
they write get scant comfort from
Mrs. Emily Grant Hutchings who is
chief feature writer of the Globe
Democrat. In paper read recently
during Journalism Week at the Uni
versity of Missouri, she says, "There
was time when the readers would
put up with fake recipes for pound
cake and dress patterns that could not
be made to fit; but that time is no
more. You have to know your sub
iect, and you have to present it in
telligibly. Someone is sure to tell on
you, if you attempt to get by with
slipshod work, and there are plenty
of people waiting for your job.
"The school of Journalism that is
run in connection with the Depart
ment of Home Economics of an Ag-
ricultural College, is the ideal one for
training women journalists.
an spite of the demands made on
the papers for solid facts, most of the
household departments are still pit
fully weak and worthless. I know a
cook who reads the daily papers for
the fun she gets out of the daily menu
and recipe department. To her it is
huge joke, much more amusing than
The column that is supposed to be
funny-for she knows how to cook and
serve, ard the first time she read 8
recipe for white sauce that called fol
cup of flour, instead of a tablespoon
full, she knew beyond shadow of
loubt that the woman-editor wht
passed that recipe on to her reader!
was ignorant of her subject. Nov
hat cook refers to the household de
partment as the kite paste depart
ment. The girls of the Missouri
School of Journalism would never b
guilty of turning in recipe for whit
sauce that would result in kite paste.
/ Men were not included in Mrs
Hutchings' paper which dealt exclu
sively with women in city newspape
work. If they had been, she woul
undoubtedly have added that the stu
dents in agricultural journalism re
ceive thorough training in agricultur
as most of them are enrolled in tn
four-year course of the College of Az
riculture.

IMPROVE HONOURED MEATS

Don't let the cured meat get too
salty. The practice of leaving the
hams and bacon in the brine or dry
cure for two or three months will al
ways give meat that is too salty to be
eaten with any relish. Two days for
each pound weight of piece will cure
the meet thoroughly so that it will
keep all summer and will usually make
it SO salty that it will need some fresh
ening before using. Shoulders that
are to be used up before hot weather
can be cured in a considerably less
length of time. Before the meat is
to be smoked soak it two or three
hours in warm water. If it is too salty
soak it for full twenty four hours
and then send to the smoke house.

BUSY SCENE AT FEDERAL MILL

The Villadson Construction Com
pany, which is erecting the Federal
Lead Company's new mill at Elvins,
now have on their payroll $50 men
and are advancing every department
of the work as rapidly as possible.
They are now employing about 100
carpenters besides the concrete, struc-
tural and other crews.
Excavation is about completed for
four of the six main buildings and
foundation work will begin immediate
ly on these. The building in which
will be located the jiggs, rolls, tables,
ore-bins, ETC., has first story about
completed, and stiff derricks are be-
ing erected for hosting and placing
the heavy steel columns and other
structural parts. The company is now
receiving about six cars of material
daily.
The Federal Company has in the
meantime been busy in sinking shaft
on the grounds and now have this
down to a depth of 420 feet. The
head or gallows frame over this is
now completed and ready for use; it
is about So feet in height.
No buster scene is to be found any.
where else in the great Lead Belt than
that about the site of the new Federal
mill. There were 225 men fed at the
company boarding hall, on the
grounds, last Tuesday morning.
Among the aggregations finding lodg-
ings at the bunk houses are entertain
ers in all stages of the art-some who
sing, others have their violins, mando-
Inns and Jews-harps; then there are
trick artists, acrobats and fisticuff
performers. But none of these ap-
ply their art during the work hours

MISSOURI COMMERCIAL
CLUBS GET FARMERS

That Commercial Clubs of Nilsson
ri towns are including farmers in their
organizations, much to the better
ment of the clubs, is the opinion of
Sam NJ. Jordon, lecturer of the State
Board of Agriculture, located at the
College of Agriculture of the Univers-
ity of Missouri at Columbia.
Clowns and country communities
are working out problems common to
BOTH" says Mr.. Jordon. "The farm
ers and townspeople both have ideas
that are Of value to each other. This
CO. operation is wonderful step for
advancement of both town and coun-
try"
Mr.. Jordon goes to all parts of the
State on lecture tours. He says that
he has found the interest of the farm
ers in the meetings conducted by lee
turers from the University to be ex-
| cellent.
