Milk and Milk Dishes.

Milk and Milk Dishes.
The value of milk for the growing
family can never be TOO often express
ed. In these days when feed for the
cattle costs so much more than
formerly, when labor is higher and
very scarce the dairyInan must raise
his price of milk or go out of BUSH
ness. Milk at IL to Is cents quart
is cheaper food than meat Cut down
on other foods but never on the milk
for the family, for in it are the growth
determinants or growth stimulants
which are SO essential for good body
framework and healthy blood The yolk
of egg and good butter are also rich in
this growth stimulant. A growing child
should have if possible three glasses
of milk per day. even when eating the
usual amount of solid foods found in
vegetables and cereals, milk is not a
beverage, it is food.
For cream soups skinned milk may
be used, and egg added to supply the
lack of fat with butter and flour used
in the binding makes it is as good as
whole milk Cold skinned milk may
be given the children at meals for their
drink in summer and hot in winter.
IL plenty of good butter is supplied
the child will be well fed. Cheese in
various forms may be used in the place
of meat; as souffles with macaroni in
cream sauce over toast, in cream po-
ltatoes or escalloped potatoes and in
many other dishes which will occur. to
the house mother. A simple and
wholesome supper dish which is easy
to prepare is the following:
Milk with eggs in the form of Gus
tards is one of the best, most whole
some and easily digested desserts for
young people.
A glass of hot milk for the restless
child upon going to bed will often
prove most soothing. Milk is too val
liable food to he sighted or cut out
of the diet because of its cost. 1t will
be far better to cut down on the meat
and buy more milk.

A DIPLOMATIC DISGRACE.

A fleeting item carries The news
that Post Wheeler, attached 10
the American legation at Japan,
had been appointed counsellor 10
our legation at Stockholm. Mr..
Wheeler lis an able citizen. lie
has been in the diplomatic service
long time and has held impor-
tant posts under several admin
istrations and has been steadily
advanced. 1t is through such
work as his. that American di-
plomacy may, in time, and under
favorable conditions, take rank
with that of Great Britain.
The first thought conveyed by
the news Of Mr.. Whecler's APP
pointmeni was The utter and lu-
dicrons absurdiy of the situation
ut Stockholm. The presumption
is that an ambassador or minister
TO Il foreign country should have
equipment necessary for his dil-
tics, yet Mr.. Wheeler is to be sent
to Stockholm because We nave Il
minister there who is so pitifullY
weak in diplomatic ability as, to
make it necessary for The gov
gernment to surround him with ad-
visors like Mr.. Wheeler to pre-
vent disastrous breaks.
Why is this minister, Ira Mel
son Morris retained, or for thai
matter why was. he appointed!
The answer is money, nothing
else. The men who got him his
appointment profited, and he i:

AS THE HUNS PLAY 1T.

The while-winged dove Of
peace will not be brought nearer
by the recent official announce
ment that an American sentry
was found murdered with his
throat cut, after capture by the
Germans. This news confirms
the recent unofficial report that
three American soldiers we're
killed in a German raid a month
ago and found with their throat.
cut.
We hope this bit of news will
be well digcsted by the pacifists,
OF whom some may be found in
Missoula, who have refused to be-
lieve the well authenticated re.
ports Of German atrocities in Bel
gium and France. The deeds OF
these Hun fiends take us back to
the cunning tortures OF the Afri-
can savages. We hope there will
be full rcprisals for all Of them.
We don't know whether there
will be any more talk about the
simple and tender nature of the
home-loving German, but we
think that all people who are
overheard indulging in that kind
Of talk should be reported and
watched.

LABOR IN ENGLAND.

Since British labor has been
told often and with truth that il
must win the war. if it is to be
won, it is not at all surprising
that the British government
should be informed that labor
must be paid for this support in
more ways than one. IT is not
merely for wages, although the
workingmen of Great Britain are
paid higher wages than ever be-
fore and are more, prosperous.
From the very beginning Of the
war, they have realized the OPP
portunities for other ends. They
have not been at all modest in re-
vcaling their club, and with the
end of the war we may expect q
series of startling changes, So
cially and economically in the
life of Great Britain, changes
that will daze the old aristocracy,
The British labor party will en-
force a national minimum wage,
likewise, they will control Indus
tries so that the profits will be re-
duccd to those Of ordinary per-
ccntage investment.
That is part Of the program, the
remainder of which will be de-
veloped as contingencies arise.
This, we may expect, will include
the division of all the great
estates, heavily increased taxa
ton Of the rich and thorough
breakdown Of caste, at least SO far
as the landed aristocracy is con-
cerned. There used to be Nn old
saying, "A Briton loves lord
We think that the war has shot
that old saw TO pieces. There will
be no such upsctting Of things in
Great Britain, as there was in
Russia, because the British mind
still works along conservative
lines, but there will be enough
changes to give the British en-
pirc quite different look.

United States Senator.
Editor 'Missoulian:

Editor Missoulian:
l fully indorse Mr.. Berry's letter in
The Missoulian Of December 26 on tho
above subject.
cannot, however, agree with the po-
sition taken by you in your very able
editorial upon this matter.
You indicate In said editorial that
you would be willing to support Sem
ator Walsh. provided Mr.. Wheelers
official head was first brought to you
'on a charger"
Your opposition to Mr.. Wheeler may
be warranted, Il don't know, but am
willing to leave the matter with Sem
ator Walsh. and hold him responsible
for the outcome.
II seems to me that the question Is.
Are the Republicans Of Montana will
ling to unite with the Democrats Of
Minnesota and rc-clect both Senators
Nelson and Walsh?
Harry Parsons, In his eloquent ad-
dress at Poison this summer. gave
utterance to this sentiment when he
said in effect, that at present there
are neither Republicans or Democrats;
a person Is either loyal or disloyal."
do not think that Mr.. Berry wishes
to be understood as saying that he
thinks there are no Republicans in
Montana qualified for United States
scnatorship.
I know personally OF several. some
Of whom would doubtless be willing to
accept the office. The proposition.
however. is this: Here are two SEN
ators, tNelson and Walsh, both pre-
ominently well qualified for service IN
the present crisis. One a Republican,,
the other a Democrat. Why not re-
elect both"

bled their acreage of cultivated

of their crops. 1t is expected that
they will increase the food pro-
ducion of their acreage 80 per
cent this year. Too carclcssly, we
have quoted at times the views Of
the old Montana pioneers on the

SAVE THE SOAP

Soap is valuable. The United States
food administration urges every house
wife not to waste 1t. Each cake of
soap contains fat that the world abroad
Is hungry for and also glycerine that
Is needed in the, making of explosives.

an to SEQ that no soap is wasted III
her home. See that the children don't
let 1t float in the tub or washbowl.

powder whenever possible instead of
hard soap. The latter contains about
IS per cent fat. while soap powder has

NOT FOR THEIRS.

The efforts of the Socialist
leaders Of the Non-Partisan
league to interest union labor, as
d body, in their movement have
wholly failed. President Townley
Of the league attended the Buff
falo convention of the American
Federation of Labor for the pnr-
pose Of swinging that organiza-
ton into line. He was received
with mild interest and sent away
cmpty-handcd. He was no more
successful in other cities and his
movement to extend the influence
Of the league in the states east of
Minnesota has been an utter and
complete failure.
To the lasting credit Of that
wise and able leader OF organized
labor in America, Samuel Com
pers, il is to be said that he has
never permitted his organization
TO be the tool of any political
party, or to be used by politicians
as an organization. Mr.. GomPcrs,
OF coufsc, could have made him
self q very rich man, if he had
been willing to betray his fellow
workmen to one of the two great
political parties. That could have
happened at any time. He has
held his great office because he
has been not only wise, but hon
est. He knows full well that Or
ganized labor crumblcs whenever
it allies itself as q body to POI
litical party and thus becomes
tool for class Legislation.
Therefore, it may be said that
all Of these boasts of the Nom
Partisan league about bringing
organized labor into its party are
pure bosh. Mr.. Gompers will not
permit that. He is unsympa-
thetic with Socialists in general
and, in particular, with those who
have been rcsistingtthe progress
of the country at war.

Potato Day --latest
Feed Campaign Stunt.

Potato day" is the latest.
A campaign to increase the use Of the
Irish potato is the newest idea of the
United States food administration.
Grocers and dealers throughout the
country are being asked to cooperate
by establishing q potato day" each
week. to be devoted especially to the
sale and delivery Of the tubers. House.
holders are requested to help the gro
GERS and the administration by using
that day to lay in a weeks supply, and
to lay it in regularly every week, SO
that the dealers will be able to buy in
regular quantities, thus avoiding
freight congestion.
The idea of the campaign Is not to
have an unusually large number OF po-
tatOes used on any ONE day. but to have
their use increased at all times. The
slogan will be, Potatoes on every Ia
BILE in America in every day In the
year"
The administration points out that
Germany Is getting twice as many
bushels per acre as We are, and that
the per capita potato consumption
there II three times rs great - our
own. The potato has helped our cne-
mics to hold out for more than three
years, the administration says. and il
is now time for US to turn her own
weapon against her.
