JERSEY MILK All of the food in milk is contained in the solid mat ter—butter-fat, sugar, protein, etc. ^ • Jersey milk contains the greatest amount of these materials. It averages 15% solids, and is highest in food value. Combined with this is its rich, exquisite, Jersey fla vor, which makes it a pleasing beverage and a perfect fond. We can supply “Jersey quality” milk from our healthy herd. France builds dozens of tiny air planes, smallest in the world; every French submarine will carry one. One of these submarine airplanes rose from the water nine seconds after the submarine reached the surface, went up 2,000 feet, descended and went aboard the submarine again. A fleet of submarine* coming up near a big city, discharging its swarm of mosquito-like airplanes, each car rying its gas or explosive bomb, could | make the next war interesting. ^ LYDIA METtfODIST CHUURCH A.
