WHY NOT SKIM MILK RoUrEsq

10 make use of valuable food
which has been very much neglected,
the federal dairy division is urging
dealers to consider seriously the ad-
Visibility of putting out skim milk on
tllelr regular milk routes. Consumers
can help the movement by asking for
this product.
In the past many dealers have been
opposed to the sale Of skim milk on
the routes, fearing that it would cur
tail the consumption of whole milk.
It is believed, however, that many
people, if they had an opportunity,
would use skim milk for cooking and
drinking in addition to their custom
ary quantity of whole milk. Skim milk
sold in this way should be pasteurized
and handled as carefully as market
milk. 1t should also be labeled con-
spicuously to comply with local re-
quirements, so that the consumer may
be fully informed as to its true char
acter.
Skim milk contains ali the food ele-
ments of whole milk except the fat. 1t
has a little more protein than whole
milk, but because Of the deficiency in
fat, does not supply so much energy.
When 4 per cent whole milk-an
average butterfat content Of market
mill7-sells at 10 cents a quart, skim
milk is worth 12.4 cents a quart as a
source Of protein. In energy value,
skim milk Is worth So cents a quart
when 4 per cent whole milk is sell
ing for II cents.

Stop the Farm Leaks.

livery one knows what happens
when water is put into a barrel that
has stood eiupty in the sun for q
while. The water leaks out between
the slaves. Many manufacturers hire
men to study out ways Of stopping
such leaks IN their business. Il is
said that a well-known automobile
company offers n small fortune to any
man who can save a few cents IN the
cost Of building prominent parts Of TN
auto. Just so in farming. The most
successful farmer is the one who has
the best oreauized business, which is
best adapted to conditions. and has
the fewest 1aaks.n Every dairy farmer
knows the Babcock test shows how
much butter fat is in a cows milk.

The jaboncello, or soap berry tree,
grows ia the humid parts of western
Ecuador. It attains a height of so feet
ana has wide-spreading branches and
immense quantities of fruit of the size
and shape Of cherries. The nearby
transparent yellowish skin and pulp
surrounding the round black seeds are
so saponaceous as to be used instead
of soap, being equivalent to more
than so times their weight of that ma
terial."

bit as food depends upon the cook
ing. AS often prepared, It is dry and
insipid. while in the hands of an ex-
perienced cook it becomes all that
fastidious taste can wish-wholly as
paiatabie as the finest poultry. A spe-
cial requirement in cooking is that
none OF the natural juices in the meat
be lost In the process.

GET GOOD PIGEON
STOCK; HOMER A
POPULAR VARIETY.

Good breeding stock is necess
sary TO succeed in pigeOn-rais-
, ing. It is advisable TO buy
pigeons from reliable breeders
those who guarantee their stock.
Many failures in sQuab-raising
have been due to poor stock
old pigeons past their period Of
usefulness, or perhaps too many
male birds. There are a great
many varieties Of pigeons, but
only a few are used in squab-
raising. The Homer is generally
considered the most popular va
riety. The United States depart
