Value OF 100 Pounds Of Milk.

From 100 pounds or skim milk l D
pounds Of cottage cheese may be
made, with protein value equal to
22.5 pounds OF pork. In other words.
a quart of skim milk makes more
than third OF a pound OF cottage
cheese. When a hundred pounds of
skim milk is fed TO "a pig the skim
milk 10 converted into about As
pounds OF dressed pork, when COM
bined with other feeds TO the best
advantage. For every hundred pounds
of skim milk few 70 pigs instead OF
used for human food in the form OF
cottage cheese. there is food loss
equivalent to the protein in 17,7
pounds of meat. That is not all; az
ter the manufacture of cottage cheese.
the whey remains and is available for
stock feed, From 100 pounds OF skim
milk made into cottage cheese there
is a residue OF about so pounds OF
whey. which is regarded as having
n feeding value OF about half that Of
skim milk. and ON that basis, when
properly combined with other feeds.
will produce 10 pounds OF pork. So,
by making cottage cheese and feed
ing the whey to pigs, the human
food produced from 100 pounds OF
skim milk has the same protein value
as 24.4 pounds of meet, or 1876 pounds
more than when all the skim milk
is fed to pigs.

TINE TO PACK LUNCHES.

The children are starting to school
again. and the old problem which the
mother faces every morning OF what
shall l pack for their lunch" looms up
bigger than ever this year because OF
the special effort being made for child
welfare.
Many kinds OF baskets and pals are
on the market in which to pack cold
lunches, but the chief point to keep in
mind when selecting a lunch patti is.
viii IL keep the food clean, free from
dust and well ventilated?'
The number OF foods which may be
packed Is more numerous than most
mothers suspect Some simple lunches
suggested by the food administration
are:
Lettuce or celery sandwiches, cup
custard, jam or jelly sandwiches.

The United States has now been 1t
war for more than a year. But up to
the present time the Red Cross has
made but one national appeal for help
its $100.O0O.O0O drive In the summer
Of 1917. Now it Is about to make an
other appeal-its second And upon
the heels Of the Third Liberty
Loan. For, great Is are the re-
probabilities and the opportunities of
the institution whose blazing symbol
is recognized by civilized nations the
world over as symbol Of peace and
Of comfort, its expenditures are but q
small fraction of those required for
our governmental expense for the con.
duct Of the war.
Organization Of Service.
The Red Cross has never permitted
itself to encr0ach upon the functions
or the necessities Of the government,
although there are many times when
it might justify itself in so doing. In
the single important instance Of trans
portation 1t has refused to burden the
army or navy with the carriage Of its
vast supplies Of stores, even though
these were destined for the relief and
the lives IT the soldiers and the sailors
themselves. On the contrary, after it
had builded and fully equipped great
