OH, SURE ! WHY, '\ GONG <o BE A \ CARYOONIST DISPOSING OF MILK SURPLUS Conditions Likely to Exist in - Well- Developed Dairy Districts During. Summer. 7 (Prepared by the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture.) For the first time since the begin- ning of the World war there is devel- oping in this country a surplus of milk, according to reports recently received by the United States Depart; ment of Agriculture. Specialists of the department state that this condl- tion probably will be only temporary during. the “flush” of the season, and that it is most apparent in well-de- veloped dairy districts, It may con- tinue during the summer months, but is expected to adjust itself by fall, when demand. will overtake the sur- plus of supply. The situation is large- ly due to the falling off in the demand for milk in the manufacture of con- densed products, milk powders, casein, and similar products, for which there was a large export outlet. The department points out the ad- visability of using as much milk as possible, in fluid form and otherwise, as a human food. Within the last generation an increased knowledge of the value of milk jn the diet has re- stlted in an’almost doubled per cap- ita consumption of milk, and con- sumers who purchase milk freely thereby encourage production. This is believed to be the best safeguard against a milk shortage and high NEAM, BUY “HME \DEASw NOUL GOY 1O HAVE \DEAS , YOu KAOW SHAS HE EASIESY PART \ GOT A HOL- SERAP BOOK FuLL OF JOKES ABOUY "HONE BREW' FATerAITE; ST Tk T puTeer | milk may. be fed alone or mixed with other feeds, but feeders should ob- serve. their flocks carefully to avoid giving too much milk, or bowel trou- ble may result.

REAL TREAT FOR IMMIGBANTS Ice Cream Something New to Arrivals at Ellis Island, but They Finally Liked It. Immigrant struggles with American food on Ellis Island reached a climax when Commissioner Wallis introduced plates of fce cream to the 1,700 diners. The idea behind the ice cream was: to give the Immigrants a real treat on thelr reaching the land of promise. What happened was a marvel to wit- ness. The first persons served were a Balkin native and a native of East India, The East Indian took a lick and liked it. He looked around and saw that the Balkan opposite him had a bigger plece. Greedily he grabbed for it. - Then the fight began. Both got well smeared In the face with the' food. 3 The other diners touched the I créam, and. finding it cold, thought they knew the trick, The stunt was to smear the cold substance on your ueighbor’s face. This happened sev- eral times. ‘Then someone tasted the jee cream and with ‘a whoop, #n- nounced it was manna too precious to be wasted on countenances. The heast steward said the same thing in the elght languages he speaks. The face- smearing ceased abruptly, But the final experiment was yet to be made. The real genius'of the meil took up his knife and a plece ot bread and spread the new hutter ten- derly over it. He started the fayhion with a bang, and all the rest enjoyed thelr ice cream that way.—New York World, 1304 Lo, S R e P e But when the limit of human utill- zation is reached dairy producers nec- essarily must decide how to dispose of the remainder.
