INCREASED USE or MILK
AND HIGH COST OF LIVING

The high cost OF living may be re-
duced by the increased use OF milk. a
highly nutritious and digestible food.
IS the opinion OF A. K. Perkins, dairy
chemist at the Ohio experiment sta
ton. He says hat a quart OF milk is
equal in food value to three-fourths
OF a pound OF beefstake. eight eggs.
10 pounds OF oysters. two pounds OF
hsh, six pounds OF tomatoes or three
pounds OF apples and the milk is more
easily digested and far more econom-
ical than the other foods.
One conception the pub
lie has. this chemist declares. is that
eream contains In concentrated form
most Of the valuable food material
present in the milk from which the
cream Is taken. Because OF this fact
cream Is usually sold for as much
as tho original milk. while the skim
milk. which contains about half OF the
food material. Is fed 10 the stock or
thrown away. He has shown that In
fact cream Is a luxury and that milk
Is much cheaper and more nutritious.
Digestive disorders sometimes follow
excessive eating OF fats. which is an
other argument besides cos against
the substitution OF cream for milk.
Protein Is the most expensive in
gredient in foods. being especially
costly in meats. II Is exceptionally
abundant In milk For this reason
milk Is said TO be a suitable food to
balance a diet rich In starches. sugars
and fat. such as would result from
the use OF only cereals. fruits and
vegetables. AT ordinary prices Chem
list Perkins has figured that skim-milk
az 10 cents a quart would be a more
economical food than meat.

Orrum, R. /, May We have a
coed season in the ground now. and
the farmers are making good time
ploughing their crops. I don't like
to see so much cotton planted. I'd
rather see corn in the place where
so many have cotton.
War is very interesting talk
these days. We all want to see Ger
many take whipping.
Tobacco has been set for quite a
while and the best stand to-be-sure.
A few women in our section have
picked up their old knitting needles
and are turning out hose and IL
hose. There are few spinning
wheels in our section and we expect
to hear them hummlng again. The
product from these enterprises are
very substantial and will outlast 3
pairs of common Zoe hose sold usu-
ally on the market. A great many
old-timy things will come back if the
war should last very long.
We have marriages and rumors OF
marriages in this section.
We miss our organist in Sunday
school, Mrs. Emma Ivey, who is in
a hospital for treatment. We wish
her speedy recovery and health.
