By WOODS HUTCHINSON, M. D.

by WOODS T1O lNl1lNoSN, VA -.
Necessity is the mother of inven-
ton and there are no necessities like
those of war.
The stress and emergencies of the
milk war drove the companies to sug-
gest a temporary measure, which
might prove of real value to city
babies--that of bringing small groups
OF cows close to the edge OF or even
into the suburbs OF the city.
This, at first sight, sounds like a
backward step to village and country
town conditions, and hands of horror
will be raised at once at the thought
OF dirty, fly-swarming stables and
barnyards trodden into filthy bog,
which would be nuisance and men
ace to the health of the entire neigh
borhood. And, Of course, as source
for the whole or any considerable
fraction of the supply, dairy barns
in the suburbs would be out of the
question. But for limited and spe-,
cial part OF the city's milk supply,
namely, that required by babies and
very young children, the plan is both
practical and possessed of real value
and advantage.
Especially, in view OF the fact that
most Of our city milk is from forty
eight to seventy-two hours old before
it reaches the homes and that stale
milk is both indigestible and un-
wholeso ne for babies, to say nothing
of the generations and millions of
germs who are given time to breed
in it.
Indeed, it has several times been
suggested by careful and competent
students of the city milk problem and,
in one instance at least, has actually
been put in operation on quite an ex-
tensive scale. The great metropolitan
city OF Buenos Ayres, with popula-
ton OF nearly two millions, after a
very careful and competent survey OF
the situation by eminent experts, has
established or licensed one dairy of
ten to fifteen cows in every area con-
tanning 10000 population in the city
The cows, of course, are carefully Sc

Those were the remarks l heard

Of an anonymous gift, The teller Of

Workers IN Secret

Of those people who feel not merely
that they must do their best, whether
anyone else discovered it or not, but
an actual delight in doing it. They
would sink frightfully in their own
estimation If they did not do it.
Doing it they feel satished-quite

The milk from these exclusive boz
vine dames-these daughters OF the
hygienic revolution-can be sold only
upon written permission from the dis
trict health officer to babies and also,
it is said, to a certain number of
inyalids, and the surplus may be con-
sufned upon the premises in the form
of milk or ice cream or soft cheese.
The method is said to work admir-
ably and these "milk-on-the-half-
shell" stations are extremely popular
and successful. There is no reason
whatever, given competent health Of
ficers and intelligent dairymen, why
cows cannot be kept almost as clean

humans. F
