HOME GUARDS IN

knocked into a cooked hat for the

that OF the present militia.
Both Governor Harding and Adult
ant General Logan have been studying
the home guard situation and have at

guard. gg
1T had sbeen believed that under a
law passed by congress. 1t would be
possible tororsaniza home guard and

this law. received there, have greatly
discouraged this idee because Of the
unexpected strictns-ss Of requirements.

cottage cheese being offered as an In.
expensive, wholesome and satisfying
substitute for meat.
Cottage cheese is rich In proteins,' -
P. w. Crowley, deputy state dairy and
food commissioner, declared today
and If the United States suffers a
food shortage during the present war
It will be principally in the products
containing proteins.
1--WE have a great quantity of fats,
both animal and vegetable, and l feel
that there should be no fear as to the
exhaustion of our supply. The vege-
table oils are equally as healthful and
as useful, as the animal oils and the
war period will bring about Z great
increase in their use. f.3
s'"In order that the proteins in meat
may be conserved It is necessary that
we use meat substitutes, which con-
sist principally of eggs and dairy
products. Cottage cheese is one of
the most inexpensive OF these. BY
setting aside one day each week as a
meatless day, when cheese is to be
substituted, It will be conservation
movement both to the consumer and
the producer. The producer will have
an opportunity to use the milk by
products, SKINNED milk and butter
milk, In the making Of product
which will demand a better price than
the ordinary usage"
All of the assistant dairy commits
sioners of the state have been In
structed in the manufacture packing
and marketing OF the cheese by fed
eral representative Of the dairy dlvi-
sion of the department of agriculture.
There are enough men under instruc-
tion to give time to all individuals
who wish to make the product, Mr.
Crowley said.
