support. The consumption of milk
everywhere is ridiculously low. In
the dairy communities so little milk
is consumed that It would be a Joke
If 1t were not n shame. Recently the
Walworth County Farm bureau in
~vestigated that popular consumption
OF milk in tina; distinctly rural coun-
ty and although It is dotted with
creameries and cheese factories and
dairy herts dot every one Of its roads.
there was almost no milk drunk at
the farm homes nor in the country
schools.
If the consumption Of milk were
anything neEr whit Its food value
warrants and its cost justifies in SOM
parison with other foods. there would
be no question of an additional mar
ket. Instead the dairy cattle equip
ment now on the farms would not
begin to supply the need.

Delicious Food and Drink.
The ordinary soda is a water drink

mis- points u 1.-THE new milk sod
has all the food all of fresh whole
milk and is q body builder as well
as a delicious and attractive drink"
The addition of whole milk powder
to any soda gives 1t a rich creamy
taste and slightly softens the sharp
ness of the carbonated water flavor.
Whole milk powder is especially
well suited for use at any fountain
because l. keeps perfectly after the
can is opened if the lid is kent on.
Moreover, it is always ready for use,
while fresh milk If purchased daily
for fountain use may be all used up
or else may be left over to spoil.
Pronounced flavors such as lemon,
vanilla, strawberry, rootbeer. ginger.
mint and s~arssparilla are good. Many
pleasing flavor combinations are pos
sible.
