consumption with the economic
status.
Eight per cent of all families in
Philadelphia did not use milk at
all. In suburban group 3 per
cent of families did not use milk.
Children should have quart Of
milk a day, according to all health
authorities.
If so-if this is the actual sup
ply, and it probably is-that cuts
the adult consumption down con-
siderably. Except as used in cook
ing, probably less than half the
adult population drinks any milk
regularly.
There is probably a reason for
this. Many investigators have
found that the hydrochloric acid
which is regular part Of the di-
gestive juice of the stomach, be-
comes less and less in most
healthy people as time goes on.
The large amount Of alkaline sub
stance in milk may make the
adult instinctively avoid it. In
those countries in which a large
amount Of milk is consumed by
adults, it is notable that they do
not always use whole fresh milk
but are inclined to use soured milk,
buttermilk, SKINNED milk, or
various kinds Of cheese.
This again accounts for the hk-
ing which adults and middle-aged
people show for buttermilk. It is
instructive. And it is very good
food in cases Of decreased acidlty
Of the stomach, because the condi-
ton favors the development OF
various bacteria in the intestines.
Indeed, some Investigators think
that the growth Of these bacteria
produces toxins which tend to
cause the degenerative diseases OF
late middle age.
So let the butterrnilk or acid
ophilus milk user alone. Man IS
the only animal that uses milk
after the period Of infancy.

good times here is the increase in American tourist travel sFroad.
 Then, too, currency devaluations abroad have reduced the cost to America of foreign goods. Because these prices are low, American man. ufacturers are buying foreign raw materials heavily. Ultimately for eign prices are sure to rise, so American manufacturers, with sup piles of cheaper raw material bought in advance, can undersell foreign goods later.
 It is noteworthy, in support of this. that the principal increase in imports to this country is in raw materials, such as rubber, part of which will be later exported as fin ished goods.
 The Department of Commerce in- sists also that the trade pacts are helping break down trade barriers. But that is something likely to be a subject of political wars for years to come.

TRADE BALANCE. IS NOT CAUSING. MUCH W0RRYINC|
Favorable Light Thrown on Subject by Dept. of
 Commerce
By PRESTON GROVER

| WASHINGTON, Sept. IT. = Just because the United States had an adverse" balance of trade in 1886 and expects another one for 1897 is no reason for business men to start jumping off bridges.
 Many economists refuse to call it an adverse or 'unfavorable" bal ance of trade. Instead they call it an import surplus" The Depart ment of Commerce insists it should be simply an "unbalance of pay ments, since only part of it repre- sents a trade in goods. Shipping services, interest and dividends and tourist expenditures enter into it.
 But the fact remains that in 1886. for the first time in decades, the United States had an import surplus It amounted to $153,000,- 000 Even so it exported $34 100000 more of actual goods than it im- ported The deficit came in such items as American tourist expendi- lures abroad, services of foreign ships in carrying American prod uce and other "invisibles."
