a decrease to the health of children
today, said, milk is the one food that
all young children must have if they
are to be strong and healthy. Whole
milk is rich in the elements without
which the child's growth ceases and
his health is impaired; indeed there is
no food which can supply as well the
needs of the growing child
There is no substitute for milk in
the diet of babies and young children
Yet the increase in it's price is so start
ling that, as the reports the bureau
receives show, many mothers are
economizing on milk. Young children
can not get the nourishment they re
quire from the would-be milk SUBJ
stitutes given them. Patent foods
which do not themselves contain milk
and are not Intended to be mixed with
milk are so lacking in the ssentials
Of healthy development that we must
expect children fed on them instead of
on milk to be weakly and ailing
Plainly very great harm is done young
children by giving them tea and
coffee; it is giving them mere stimu-
llnts to replace their best food"
Since the price of milk went up to
Il cents a quart, tea and coffee have
been substituted for milk by more
than half of 1900 families-all with
children under six-included in the
study of the effect of the increased
price of milk just made in New York
city by the Mayors Committee on
Milk, the City Department of Health
aid the association for improving the
condition of the poor One hundred
and twenty families have stopped
taking milk entirely, in twenty-five
oi these there are babies under one
year old. All the 1920 families have
young children, but nearly half are
taking from one-fourth to one-half
less milk than before the price went
up, Yet even before the larger price
decreased the amount of milk they
bought these families were betting
but little more than half the amount
oof milk which experts on children's
diets say they need.
In Chicago as well as New York
the rise in the price of milk has fore
ed down the amount purchased. A
