WISCONSIN HELPS
KEEP NATION FIT
BY {. B. HART,
University of Wisconsin.

university or Wisconsin.
The nation is passing through food
crisis Certain foods are scarce; many
are very high in price; others can
scarcely be had at any cost.
Most housewives are trying hard to
find new ways Of keeping down the
cost of food for their families. In do
Ing so they are trying many new foods
and combinations. 1t is, then, Of great
Importance that at this time the known
facts concerning the nutritive values
of foods be generally understood in
order that the people, and particularly
young children and growing boys and
girls, may not suffer from improper
Iselection Of foods.
Save but Do Not Stint.
It is very necessary that We save
food and avoid its waste, but it is
probable that in many cases high
prices may lead US TO stint ourselves
on certain essential foods. This con-
dition is particularly true in reference
to milk.
In the fall Of 1917, even though the
sprice Of milk had not gone up so
much as the prices Of many other
PARTICLES Of food, less was used in Chi
Aago, New York and other of our cities.
In New York the Jewish mothers, who
by long experience 1r tradition had
llearned the true value of this product
for children, were the only class
(which bought and used the normal
amount of milk in spite Of it's increased
cost.
Shoes have also increased in price,
Ebut we purchase them as a necessity,
igrumbling though we may, but realiz-
ling that we cannot be without them.
The same is true of other things that
EaPe classed as necessities Why should
we not think in the same way Of milk
land dairy products, so necessary for
THE growth of vigorous. healthy chill

Man Needs Dairy Products.
No nation, so far as we know. has
ever reached or maintained high viril-
tty and leadership that has not had
lin It's diet animal products of some
kind. In the far east are to be found
peoples who are practically vegeta-
lrians. In no case are they as vigor-
THAT they are able to live without
dairy products is undoubtedly to be
explained by their consumption Of
the actively growing parts of plants,
Especially the leaves.
Whole milk is perfect food for
the young. Fed by itself it will eff
Iciently support growth. There are but
few single articles of food that will
do this. Eggs will do it, but corn
meal or oatmeal for example, will not.
Animal life, after thousands of years
tof evolution and many trials and
probable failures, finally produced in
milk q food Of superior quality. It,
like the egg, has been developed to
meet the needs Of the growing young.
IAN egg contains q potential life. The
mother hen has scratched and eaten
from variety of sources, only finally
ito put into the egg all the food essen.
tails needed by the unfolding chick.
Similarly the dairy cow, from her
coarse and bulky feed of grain and
roughage, takes the essentials, chang
ing and improving some of them for
the production of better or more per-
feet food than that which she has
eaten. Milk, like the egg, contains all
the food needs Of the growing young

THE COUNTRY QUACKS;
THOUSANDS OF THEM.
Great Enterprise Conducted BY
Messrs. Taylor And Moss
Near Annapolis.

Anne Arundel is full of Quaeks
There are thousands Of them, ana
their ouackiest time is just about feed
ing hour. around six-thirty in the az
ternon. These quacks are not the
usual variety of the medicine man but
actual live ducks whose quack may
be heard for a long distance, until II
is quieted by the evening meal
A new enterprise that is almost in
its prime, but promises TO be tar-
reaching in-its effect, is the duck ana
chicken farm started some few
months ago by Messrs. John NJ. Tay-
lor and Thomas ID. Moss on farm
near Annapolis, on the road to 81.
Margarets The place was that of the
old Handbook florist and later the
Florist Dull, but now converted into
an up-to-date "quackery" where there
are at this time 1900 ducks, and 1900
eggs in the incubator that will soon
be ducks if the hatchery turns out
successfully, and IS per cent may be
certainly be counted upon.
The ducks are of all sizes and ages,
the largest weighing 6 pounds. Some
$50 of these are in a special pen and
are ready for shipment to Baltimore
dealers who have engaged them.
Others are classified in separate com
partments of the "duckery" as to
their relative growth and develop
ment, awaiting the day when they
have reached the size and weight OF
their duck brothers and sisters who

/ The duck farm is one of the sights

especially on Sunday by large mum
Der of people from all parts of. the
county and city.
To see the ducks feed, or being fed
is a sight worth while. After a few
mouthfuls they run. or waddle, to the
water can and drink to their hearts
content. as though to Wash Down
their Eats with aqua pura.
But ducks are not the only fowl the
Taylor-Moss farm raises. There are
some six hundred chickens, and every
one, like the ducks, is pure white. 1t
is a wonderful sight to see the chick
ems feed, as we'll as the ducks, and Mr.
Moss has a call for them that they all
recognize and come scamepring

GOVERNOR APPEALS
FOR STATE ROADS.
Harrington Tells President OF
Their Wretched Condition
Due To Army Trucks.

In a half-hour conversation with
President Wilson, which took place at
the White House rather than the Fix
ecutive Offices, Governor Harrington
Yesterday went over very carefully
with the Nations Chief Executive the
condition Of Maryland roads which are
rapidly going TO pieces under the
hammering of army hauling.
After the whole situation had been
gone over by the Governor. and the
necessities of the roads fully explained
to the President. the latter stated that
he would send for the Secretary of
Agriculture and perhaps for the Sec
rotary of War and would see what the
Government might he able to do not
only for the relief of the Maryland
highway system but for" the roads of
any other state which had been seri-
ously damaged by the movement of
army trucks.
The Secretary Of Agriculture whom
the President will call into conference
in the matter is head of the federal
highway system. He probably will di-
rect the Good Roads Bureau to make
a survey of the boulevard and the
Belair road for the information and
guidance of the President in any ac-
ton which it may be found possible
for the government to take.
The Governor referred TO Senator
John Walter Smiths bill giving the
War Department authority to declare
any State highway a military road and
recurring the War Department to con
tribute toward the upkeep of any road
so declared The President was IA
miliar with this measure, but eX-
pressed no opinion as to the desira-
bility of its passage.
