Milk and Babies

That babies and little children are directly affected
by the decreased sale of milk reported by dealers in Amer
cities is illustrated by findings for Baltimore recently
reported by the chdren bureau of the u s. department
of labor.
OF 756 Baltimore children between and Z years of
age only % per cent having fresh milk TO drink,
against 60 per year And only 20 or less
than per of the children studied are having ms
much three cups day.
With the babies under 2. the chdrens bureau says
the situation is n little less serious Apparently their
needs generally understood than the needs of
the child years.
Most serious is the general substitution in the chill
drens diet of tea and coffee OF the 575 children who
not drinking milk. GA per cent have substituted tea
and coffee "a per sharing the family diet which
may may not include tea coffee, or milk in other
foods.
Some mothers seem to realize that milk must be pro
vded for their children at whatever cost sacrifice
others who better afford TO buy milk do not under
stand its Importance and let their children without it.
The foreign born mothers altho their incomes are
slightly lower than the incomes of the native white
tinued to buy milk
