By WILLIAM BRADY, M. D. THE SISTERS FANATIC

For more than four years my sis ter and I have lived on fresh raw milk direct from the farm, home made cottage cheese, fruits, dried fruits and bananas. Somtimes we eat vegetables, meat, fish and eggs but we don't enjoy such food so much, so we go back on the milk and fruit diet. We consume two quarts of milk day, cottage cheese, and whatever fruit may be in sea- son or available. Is this too large a bulk of food for a girl eighteen? We seem to thrive on this diet, but our family insist we are eating wrong and that we are getting in- sufficient vitamins and minerals. they call us fanatic. Miss F. O.
 The food is not too bulky. Prob ably you get as good daily ration of vitamins and minerals from your milk and fruit diet as other mem bers of your family get from their diet. In fact I can't find any fault with your diet-especially If you do, as you say, sometimes eat meat, eggs, vegetables and fish.
 You say you have thrived on the diet for four years. That is a better criticism than any opinion l can offer. You don't thrive if you suffer from any nutritional de- ficiency.
 I would not recommend a milk and fruit diet as the best diet for ordinary folk. It seems to me that even if meat, eggs, fish. and vege- tables are taken occasionally, there is still something lacking That is wheat. Plain wheat, not any re- fined or fancy product.
 Why not have go at 1t-you should be able to find some plain wheat at the public market, the farmers market, the feed store, the seed store, even at the grocery store take few pounds of it home. Wash it with running water, crack it in coffee grinder coarsely, cook it as little as you like, and eat 1t as breakfast cereal. Or chew a handful of it every day-it beats gum chewing. Or send me stamp ed self-addresSed envelope and ask in writing, (not with a clipping, please) for the pamphlet Wheat to Eat" which tells how to use plain wheat in the everyday dietary and why
 There's just one tIing-when you girls ask for plain wheat the feed store man, seed store man or mar ket man is pretty certain to re- gard you as more than fanatic. l know. They do it every time!
