Milk Is Cheapest
Good Food Available

To get a clearer idea of how
dairy products meet present day
needs, the following comparisons
are made on milk:
One quart of milk on an energy
basis equals: 2 pounds chicken; 70
pounds steak: s eggs: 3.35 pounds
oysters: I oranges; IS pound of
fish; $50 pounds tomatoes; ! dozen
bananas; - pound English wal
nuts; 35 pounds asparagus.
Figuring this on price basis
tColorado's prices March, 1919.
one quart of milk at l29 cents is
worth as much as: 60 cents worth
of chicken; 2S cents worth sirloin
steak; 20 cents worth of eggs; 81 .333
worth of oysters; p cents worth of
fish; 40 cents worth of oranges; 81
worth of tomatoes; II cents worth
of bananas: 2l cents worth of Eng
ish walnuts: 81 worth of asparagus.
Good milk at 10 cents per quart
is by far the cheapest animal food
on Colorado markets today, and
the more the consuming public use
of it the cheaper will be their living
expenses, and the better nourished
will be the people-Round Nc

TEDDY HAS HypRoPHoRIA.

Teddy Foosenpelt says the United
States navy did not do nearly as much
as the British navy in winning the
war, What does he mean? Is he
spreading that English salve with a
view to becoming a candidate for
ruler of Great Britain?
Teddys' case has been diagnosed as
hydrophobia. He was driven mad by
finding himself outside of the White
House in these stirring times, and has
bitten himself several times. One of
his delusions is that he must volun-
teer advice to President Wilson and
act as guardian for the people of the
United States. Upon the eve of the
Presidents departure he urged him to
stand by the Allies" Good! Other
wise the President inadvertently
might have gone over to the Hun side
of the squabble
