Bringing the Cow to School.
A novel method Of urging the use Of
milk was tried out in q New Jersey
city with success. Just rs school was

men and Ave workers to restrain tho

could not furnish enough milk for such
crowd, but an additional supply was
brought up In trucks. and eventually
everyone got a drink Of real milk.
Most children like milk, anyway.
and when milk 10 supplied to them
in the schools they rarely leave
single drop in the bottle, especially
IL they can drink 1t through straw.
Parents often raise the objection,
when advised to give their children
more milk, that their boys or girls Will
not drink 1t. When the boys and girls
come from school, however, and tell
their parent that they want milk, they
get it.
Undernourished Children Gain on Milk.

The results Of the feeding demOnstra-

campaign, for instance, give some idea
Of what is being accomplished. In
Hampden county 48 undernourished
children were given quart Of milk
daily for six weeks. These children
made an average gain Of l pound and
1877 ounces, while the normal gain for
, healthy children carefully fed, for the
same period. would have been only II
ounces.
Eight Of these children made phe-

the results. Some Of the least expen-
sive campaigns have been the most
effective. The campaign In Daven-
port, Ia, which brought unusually
good results, was put on for the small
sum Of $65. Funds are contributed
locally for the work.
Organization in carrying O'N such a
campaign, especially In the larger
cities, is of the utmost Importance.
Long before the starting of the active
work, the committees in charge Of va
rious activities, such as publicity,
finances, transportation, ETC., are chOs-
en-, and the entire plan Of the cam
paign Is mapped out. The co-opera-
ton Of the various local organizations
Is secured, such as board of health,
newspapers, milk dealers, schools,
churches, chamber of commerce. etc. |;
and each one Is made to feel that 1t
has an active part In the work Of the
campaign.
When the opening day has arrived.
everything Is in readiness, and every
cog in the wheels Of this great ma
chine moves smoothly. Press notices
and advertisements appear in the local
papers. Posters on the food value of
milk and displays in the store windows
greet the eye at every turn. The dem

Of the country prove this, according
to the naturalization specialists Of
the United States department of agri-
culture, who are cooperating in the
milk campaigns. In our greatest city,
New York, for instance, 1t was found
that the percentage of undernourish-
ed children had Increased from 8 per
cent in 1914 to q per cent in 1918,
and that this increase had accompa-
MED decrease of 25 per cent in milk
consumption.

the same story. In one Missouri coun.
ty, 1t was found on weighing and meas

Investigations showed that this con

it is not lack Of money which has
brought about this condition, but rath

A SERIOUS
SITUATION

The Federal Land Banks are
giving warning of a probable food
famine and very severe one. In
thousands of agricultural commun-
tiles the farmers are crying for
help on their farms and not one
man can be found who will work.
Because Of this, the crop acreage
is b4ing cut down by tens of thous-
ands of acres. 1T is useless to
plant crops that can not be cared
for or harvested High wages
have tempted the farm workers to
the cities, and the farmers see no
help for it until hunger and lower
wages drive some of them back.
1t is natures way. "In the sweat
of thy face shalt thou eat bread"
is still the divine lew and if men
will not cultivate the land neither
can they eat. Similar warnings
come from the Department of Ag-
riculture at Washington,

II PARTIES ARE
STILL NECESSARY

Mrs. FL. Otto Wittpen, member
of the Democratic National Execu-
tive Committee, represented the
Democratic party at the "Victory
conference" of the New Jersey
suffrage party, which was held in
the Robert Treat Hotel, Newark,
late in April. In the course of
her speech, Mrs Wittpen said.
In oar form of Government
parties are still necessary, although
they are becoming less SO. The
experienceofthe Progressive party
shows that third party is not
practical. We nust therefore
choose between the Republican or
Democratic parties. In this we
are notrelinquishing our independ-
'ence of choice, which may be ex-
pressed in the primaries.
"We are determined to begin
our political activities by drop
ping personalities, for We know
that there are good and bad men
IN both parties. The difference
between the parties is more f1nda-
mental and permanent than any
personality. 1t goes back to the
two types of mind, the conserva.

alican party is strong on organiza-
tion. Organization needs brains

acknowledge that there are more

Why do the richest classes and

it is primarily the party of prop

and communistic compromise.
