Should Be ,Lsst Thing iTe Cat Out of Dietary.

l find many women because of the high price of milk doing without it. I wonder if these same women have considered the seriousness of this.
 Before a housewife gives up a staple article of food, she should know the
 value of that food and also know
 what food, if any. will take its place.
 Milk is the natural food for cl1ii-
 dren. It is rich in lime. and phos-
 phorous, two mineral foods children
 must have. Children are forming
 teeth and bone material and lime is
 absolutely essential to their growfA
 There is no one food which will pro vide these minerals in the necessary
 quantities. The protein in milk is in indea1 form for cell and muscle build ing, its fat carries an essential to growth, it's iron, though in small amounts, is especially well assfmiz lated by the body. There is no food which will take the place of milk for children Some children do not like milk to drink, but they should haveit in some cooked form as milk soup.
 milk toast custard or other dessert.
 Each child from 1 1-2 to, T years should have one quart of milk a day. A quart of milk at 15 cents is a eheap food. A quart of milk will supply as | much nourishment as g eggs or 3-4 pound of steak One can very easily estimate the relative cost at the pres l ent price of both eggs and steak. | There is no food to use as a milk substitute, so if a family is deprived
 of milk, it Is deprived of the sub l stances which the milk contains.
 l We know well that some women have only small amount of money to i spend for food for their family. They can't buy milk if. they haven't the l money, but the children Rsbecialy 1 will suffer from malnutrition and it's
 attending ailments. On the other | hand there are many woman who 1 could pay 20 cents a quart for milk, I if need be. yet they are cutting down
 on the milk. Such d woman, having
 several in the family, recently re- mark she was planning so that she l needed to buy only a pint of milk a
 day. This is not a fact to be proud of. Milk should. be the last thing to cut out of the dietary. instead of the first as it is in many households.
 Milk is high and so are other things
 but more fuss is made over an in crease in the price of mix than in all most anything else and as yet we l haven't reached a high price for milk
 at all considering the food value we l get,in milk.-M Este1Ia Sprague. Con- 1 necticut Agricultural College.

titled to hold their offices as railway
