Your Quota of Milk


Most of us do not use enough milk,
say the nutrition specialists. What
we ought to have, says the Bureau of
Home Economics of the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture, is a quart of
milk per day for every child, and a
pint for each adult. That does not
mean you should drink that much
milk unless you want to. The milk
will be just as useful to you if you
get it in soups, or custards, or sauces,
or gravies-or for that matter, in
cheese, where you get it in concen-
trated form. For any cooking pur-
pose you can use evaporated milk or
dried milk just as well as fresh fluid
milk, probably at less cost.
There is good reason, of course, for
all this talk about milk, especially for
people who have very little money to
spend for food. No one food in the
world can satisfy all the food needs
of the human body, but milk comes
nearest to doing it. 1t is most impor-
tant for its calcium, which is bone
building material; its proteins, for
muscle building; its easily digested fat
and some sugar for body fuel; its Wit
amins A and especially, though it
contains other vitamins as well. 1t is
not easy to get enough of some of
these substances, especially calcium,
unless you do use milk. Evaporated
milk is pure cows milk with much of
the water evaporated (fresh whole
milk is more than 81 percent water).
If, to a can of evaporated milk you
add an equal measure of water, you
can use it in most of the ways you
would use fresh milk. And the food
value would be the same at lower
cost. AS for cheese, you get nearly
all the whole milk values in plain
American (chedder) cheese, and skim
milk values in cottage cheese, which is
made of skim milk. But cheese, of
course, is more concentrated, and the
milk values count up faster in a small
portion. One quart of fresh, whole
milk equals five ounces of American
cheese (cheddar).
Oatmeal ChOwder
Two cups quick cooking oats, 1 qt.
boiling water, 1 quart milk, a pound
diced salt pork, 2 medium onions,
shopped, 2 cups shredded carrots, salt
and pepper.
Cook the oats in the quart of boiling
water for about four minutes and stir
frequently. Add the milk. Fry the
salt pork until crisp, remove the pork
and cook the onions until well Drowned
in the fat. Mix the cooked oats, on
ions and carrots and simmer for few
minutes, then add the pork and salt
and pepper to taste. Place two or
three crackers in a hot soup dish and
pour in the chowder.
Cheese Soup
One quart milk, 2 tablespoons but
ter, 2 tablespoons flour, l cup soft
faxed cheese, salt, paprika, dash ia
basco sauce, l tablespoon finely chop
ped parsley.
Heat the milk in a double boiler and
stir some of the hot milk into the
well blended butter and flour. Return
to the double boiler and cook the mix
ture for five minutes. Add the cheese
and stir until the cheese has melted,
then beat until smooth. Season to
taste with salt, paprika and tabasco
sauce. Sprinkle little of the parsley
over the top of each serving.

Not a day goes by that some en-
cOuraging statement of the New Deal
progress and the conservative swing
of the President is not promulgated.
Industrial and financial leaders liter
ally trample each other in the effort
to make the shoulder to-shoulder, all
pull together-boy headlines. "All is
well with the country" says the Presi-
dent, and great "allay the alarm"
wave sweeps the land. 1t is all very
impressive and undoubtedly any eff
fort to analyze it will bring the usual
excited TRADE against obstructive
critics" and the customary accusations
that the critic is in the pay of the In
terests, or a disguised Republican, or
a disappointed officeseeker, or an advo-
cate of starving the masses, or a
"Hoovercrat," or an agent of the devil,
or some other of the equally delicate
replies with which the devotees of the
More Abundant Life meet all attempts
to be realistic about it.
Nevertheless, it seems worth while
to say two things about this extra
ordinary revival of the evangelical en-
thusiasm engendered by the New
Deal in its early days, but which had
become measurably diluted a couple
of months ago. One is that the atmos-
phere created since election is very
reminiscent, to those who stop to
think, of the early ballyhoo of the
NRA, which climaxed in October, 1888.
In that month in New York some
.250,000 men and women, including
bankers, brokers, editors and leaders
in all "avenues of human endeavor,"
marched in review before General
Johnson and paid homage to the Blue
Eagle. The demonstration was dupli-
Gated in a smaller way in all sections.
1t was a great occasion. Never did
the nation seem more united. Capital
and Labor alike joined in the pledge
of cooperation, and General Johnson
wept tears Of joy. 1t may annoy the
more ardent New Deal disciples in
their present exhilarated state to re-
call the tremendous enthusiasm of
that time and to point out that the
gallant General is now among those
missing, that the Blue Eagle is an ex-
tremely bedraggled bird, and the
whole NRA in a collapsed and inef-
fectual condition.

Reminiscent

Washington, Nov. 20.
The swelling chorus of Administra-
ton leaders, business men, bankers,
and newspapers, in which each en-
deavors to outsing the other in pledges
of cooperation, mutual understanding,
and support, is we'll calculated to baf-
file the man who tries to understand
exactly how all this harmony was
brought about.

Cancellation of business and real

WINGED that Mr.. Roosevelt will De

fighting" they tell you. "We've got
to do business and we can't get any
where by resisting" Couple all this
with the election, and the net result is
a second period of eXaltation. Crit
cism has ceased. The opposition is
fattened out. The propaganda is all
one way. 1t is an amazing reproduc-
ton of October, 1888. But at bottom,
not thing has been changed.

private industry is to absorb the I'M
employed now on the Federal dole.
The radicals are on the run. Every
body is to go forward. 1t is reason
able to assume therearefew intelligent
persons in the country who do not
hope those things are true. However,
it is impossible not to note that those
cheering words have a familiar sound,
that they rang in our ears twelve
months ago and we have gone through
this period of elation before. 1t seems
difficult to believe the public memory
is so short as to forget the eXaltation
Of 1888.
The fact is, the more discerning
know this new harmony choir has been
formed because both the Administra
ton and the business leaders got
frightened. Mr.. Roosevelt, some time
before election, became alarmed at
the terrific increase in both the cost
and the size of the relief burden.
with nearly one-sixth of the nation
subsisting directly on Federal funds,
eighteen months after his recovery
program started to operate, he had
every reason to be worried. He rea
lized that unless great recovery in
business reduces the relief rolls his
whole program fails.

NEW ALIGNMENTS in
EUROPE MAY HELP
SOVIET u. S. TRADE

WASHINGTON, Nov. 81. (UP)
Shifting political alignments in
Europe and the far east appear
ed today to be creating a situa-
ton favorable to settlement of
the troublesome Russian-Ameri-
can debts problem early next
year.
Japan's withdrawal from the
naval treaties. coupled with indi-
cations the old pre-war allies,
France and Russia, are in close
accord, indicated development of
new balance of power. The
sympathies Of both Great Britain
and the United States, who are
both opposed to the japanese ma
val program lie with the two Eu-
ropean nations.
Growth of international friend
illness in this group is expected to
create a favorable situation for
resumption of debt negotiations
when Soviet Ambassador Alex
ander Troyanovsky returns from
Moscow late next month, and
American Ambassador William c.
Bullitt comes back to aid officials
here.
Both governments are eager to
remove obstacles to potentially
heavy trade between the two
countries.

THOSE DOG RACES

1t is significant that although horse races have
taken place frequently in Massachusetts without
the accompaniment of legalized betting, there has
been no dog racing. The racing of greyhounds
around an oval track is about as exciting and as
glorious as the mechanical rabbit which they vain
ly chase There is little thrill in it for the non
betting spectator. 1t is purely gambling device,
and most people who wish to gamble would be as
well satisfied with the spin of roulette wheel.
In addition such tricks filing dogs nails or
numbing toe by tying cord tightly about 1t TO
slow down a natural winner are not unknown
Ostensibly the dogs are always separately owned
and there is supposedly much honest rivalry among
their owners, but not infrequently there are eVl-
dences of profitable collision. All IN alb 1t IS
cheap sport and it attracts the same sort OF FOL
lowing. Although by a popular vote Massachusetts
stands committed to its existence there is no rea
son why it should be permitted to become public

"Well, Pm not going to take

the drain board.
The next morning at breakfast.
John was just finishing his last
/ sip of coffee. when Mrs. Stickatit
went to the pantry, as John knew
she would, and came back with
the bottle and the spoon, as John
knew she would.
I'm not going to take that
dog-goned stuff, I told you
squawked John.
ut will be awfully good for
you,' commented Mrs. Stickatit.
She filled the spoon from the bot
tie, as John knew she would.
Just this once" she coaxed. as
John knew she would. She lifted
the spoon to his lips, as John
knew she would. John opened his
mouth, as she knew he would. She
poked in the spoon. as John knew
she would, and John swallowed
the oil, as she knew he would.
This story could have been con-
tinued this way for weeks and
weeks. but the result would have
been just the same, so it might as
well end where it did. That, too.
l was what John thought.
