OSburn During Talk on
Economics.

WASHINGTON. May st costs on
an average a little more than 5000
year to feed a child between the
period of birth and the age of 16
years.
That was the rate set by Prof. w.
5. Cgburn during a talk on econom-
les at the conference on child vel
fare standards under the auspices of
the Childrens bureau of the DEPART
ment OF labor in the Washington
hotel
The actual cost of feeding each
child for the first 16 years Of his life
is S1.150. The deficit in families
selected as the most economic ex-
amplcs for feeding a child for this
period. he declared was Sis. Tn
most cases this amount came out OF
tho needs 90 other members OF thu
family. parents often denying them
selves food and clothing to feed the
children adequately.
The statistics were intended to
show that the average income, %:
families was TOO small to provide
children with requisites of life.
