CAN USE THE SURPLUS MILK
Food Value Of One Pound Of Cheese
Equal to Two Pounds Of Beef,
Authorities Say.

Farm cheesemaking offers oppor'
tunity for saving large quantities OF
food which otherwise would so to
waste. A surplus OF milk is produced
on practically every farm. This sur
plus is usually fed TO hogs. In view
of the meat shortage, milk makes an
expensive feed for hogs, when 1t
could be made into cheese which Is
meat substitute.
The value of cheese as a food has
not been fully appreciated. One
pound OF cheese, according to the
United States Department OF Agricul-
ture, is equal in food value to two
pounds of beef, Thus, some idea OF
the value of whole milk a be gained.
since 80 pounds of milk will make
about ) pounds of cheese. In other
words, so pounds of milk made into
cheese is equal in food value to 10
pounds of beef. A pound OF cheese
contains about twice as much protein,
or muscle building material, as a
pound of beef of average composition,
and it is more than twice as great in
fuel or energy value. Cheese likewise
has greater food value than pork.
since pork and beef are not wideE
different in their nourishing qualities
except that pork has a higher tueI
value.
1t would he possible for farmers &c
find an outlet for their surplus milk
by selling cheese to local consumers
In this way the visible supply OF foot
could be increased from a source
which has been neglected before

creased production. The food
problem fundamentally one of
production. Every effort will
therefore be made to encourage
the farmer to increase produc-
ton"
1t is evident from reports in
different sections that some far
mers are laboring under misun-
derstandings. Instead of accept
ing reports which are current,
they should investigate. Such
investigation will invariably
prove that the food administra-
ton has the welfare of farmers
and of the entire nation at
heart and it will disprove ma
licious reports calculated to
give aid to the enemies of this
country.

FOOD ADMINISTRATION
Wants Counsel of Farmers. In
creased Production The Basis
of National Defense.

CTtdScu ATOuuCllON AhC Ddoio
of National Defense.
Persistent rumors to the eff
feet that the food administra-
ton contemplates activities
which will be detrimental to
farmers have been aloat from
time to time. To those who will
pause to reflect upon the pur-
poses of the food administration,
these rumors are clearly the
propaganda of enemies to this
country. The food administra-
ton was conceived as a national
defense measure. In the face of
this fact, therefore, it is unrea-
sonable to believe that anything
would be done which would re-
suit in loss to farmers. The fun
damental purpose of the food ad-
ministration, of farmers, and of
all loyal persons is the same
national safety. The food admin
istration intends to conserve
food and encourage food produc-
ton. 1t is important, therefore,
that farmers understand def
nitely that the food administers
ton has their interests at heart
The attitude of the administra-
ton toward the farmer is aptly
put by Dean F. B. Mumford Of
the University of Missouri Col
lege of Agriculture.
"If one fact more than any
other has developed in connec
ton with this great war, anC
particularly so far as the fooC
admins tratiOn has any relation
to it, it is the sincere effort OF
the part Of the food admins
tration to bring into its counse
every interest, and to secure in

By JOHN L. BALDERsTON.


London. Oct. ia decision has
been reached in the field. The war
is virtually won.
The concensus of best military
opinion here is that II has been won
By the great decision in the plains be-
tween Cambria and st. Quentin,
which was made possible by the
Franco-American attacks on the
Champagne-Argonne front, where
forty or more good German divisions
were pinned down while Byng and
Rawlinson broke through in Picardy.
Wide Retreat In Prosress-
A great German retreat on the
whole front as far as Verdun is now
believed to be in progress. The enemy
Is withdrawing his heavy guns and
trying to save as much material as
possible, though the rearward move
ment Of the German troops In the
north near Laon and Vouzieres Is not
yet known to have actually begun.
Upon the weather probably depends
Ludendorff's chance to escape con-
plete disaster. but the best be can
hope is to withdraw TO the Lilie-
Valenciennes- Mezieres-M Metz line and
there to hang on during the winter.
waiting for his inevitable doom next
spring.
Hence those military Judges with
whom ! have talked are Inclined 20
expect unconditional surrender before
winter.
The immediate position where the
break-through occurred seems TO be
that British cavalry and advanced
troops are struggling with German
rearguards east OF lie Cateau. but no
serious stand is likely until the line
of the Sambre-Oise Canal and the
great Normal forest are reached.
There the enemy must hold OF long
enough to enable the great pockets OF
Laon and Lille TO be cleared.
