McCOLLUM, John Hopkins University, Says: “It must be remembered that milk is our greatest protective food, and its use must be increased rather than diminished. The liberal use of milk has made us what we are. No family {Aas the right to pur- chase any meat untibeach member has at least a pint of milk daily, and this I re- gard as below the minimum. Milk is just as necessary for the maintenance of health in the adult as in the young. I have sought in vain for several years for a diet which was not of a character which could support growth in a young ammal but which would maintain an adult in a state of health over a prolonged period. I have bhecome convinced that we should adhere throughout life to such diets as will in- duce normal growth in a’child of three to five years, if we would maintain the high- est state of ph)(lc'fl well being of which we are' capable.” MOTHERS who want the best milk pro- curable for their growing boys and girls, invalids who want a nourishing food, grown-ups who do not care for ordinary milk —all- favor our special GRADE A RAW MILK and gladly pay extra for it. They know that the difference in . price is repaid in greater nourishment and richer flavor.
