Scientists Seek to Popularize
Curdled LacteaI Fluid as
Alcoholic Substitute
EVEN GOOD FOR BATHING

Today is National Buttermilk Day +.
And it's about time this fluid received
its meritcd recognition.
ITS one of the best drinks to advise
people to use now that the usual drinks
are destined TO 60" said Charles Fl
laval, chemist and food expert of the
College Of Pharmacy. at has a calori-
fic value of 100 to Il pint, and it's much
better than soft stuff because it furn-
ishes necessary carbohydrates, sodi-
ums and various desirable acids
Aside from its nutritive qualities, but
termilk possesses medicinal qualities.
Many physicians prescribe it for intes-
final disorders. The bacteria that
bring about the chemical change by
which buttormik is produced arc
believed by physicians and bacteriolo-
giSts to destroy certain harmful organ
isms in the human body.
Moreover, buttermill was used bv the
ancient Egyptians as a bath. 1t has
been used ms a massage ointment to give
milady her fair and vplvety complexion.
1t is good for the teeth. and makes tho
hair grow on bald heads if enough Of il

frcqucnt"r of the city's bars. but we

Does it drink we'll? That's the main
question.
And science answers that it does.

The hotels and the bars are prcpar-
ing for the rush for buttermilk. The
Department of Agriculture, which is
advocating the extensive use of butter
milk as n beverage. requests the
crcameries. milk plants and other dairy
establishments to co operate in the plan
to popularize the milk.

WeH-Meaut Substitutes

If you are prepared to wet your
whistle on buttermilk here are some
palatable combinations:
First. Better drink it straight.
Second. Buttermilk Lemonade:
Add juice Of two or three lemons to
a quart Of buttermik, with sugar to
taste.
Third. Buttermilk Egg Frost:
The yolks Of two eggs beaten into a
quart of buttermilk. Add n spoon
ful of chocolate syrup. Beat the
white of the eggs separately until
creamy and then mix into butter
milk. Serve in long glass and with
spoon.
Fourth. Butter Island A de-
lightful drink calculated to stimu-
late the fresh buttermilk just after
the butter has been churned out. Add
soft saltless butter to the ice cold
buttcrmilk and beat briskly. The
butter will float in the milk in little
globules. This drink is extremely
rich.
Fifth. Golden Sunshine: Butter

sugar to taste.

pilates, all varieties of nonkickable
