Handling Milk If the modern housewife knew the amount of care used in handling milk by the modern dairy she would use more care on the handling of it in the house. A few suggestions in that line might be appreciated at the preesnt time. The first one is to take in the milk as soon as possible after delivered and put it on the ice. Wash the top of the bottle before pouring any of the milk out of it. Keep the milk as cool as possible at all times. Pour out only enough milk to meet the need of the moment. Do not pour the whole quart in a pitcher and set it out on the table for breakfast and then return it to the ice box and take it out again for dinner and then return until needed again. It is best if you take out just what you need each time and leave the bottle on the ice. Do not set the milk on a window sill where the sun can strike' it and let it stand all day and then j h'ame the milkman because it is sour; before night. In most of the large cities of the country public schools conduct nutrition classes. Every child is weighed and measured for height. Children. that are apparently under nourished. 1 which is indicated by not being nor mnl as to height and weight, are put ' on a milk diet, which is furnished by the school or by some civic organization. In the thousands of cases that * have been reported they have yet to find a single case where the diet has j failed to show a marked improvement in the children, both mentally as well as physically. " In mAVO f Vt O n on rw? t* onnf ^ f ... ...u. v viimii *'v pvi vviai> ui UIC ' cases under observation of children ' that were backward mentally the real 1 reason had been shown to be a lack of sufficient vitamines in their diet. It is surprising what splendid drinks can be made by the {addition of j some flavoring syrup to a half or quarter glass of milk and then filling ' the glass with charged water. Any flavor can be used for these drinks, with the exception of lemor., which will cause the milk to curdle. However, a delicious lemon drink can be made by taking some lemon flavor and adding it to one-half glass of butter1 milk and rilling with charged water. The addition of a little salt before adding charged water and a little grated nutmeg afterward will greatly improve the flavor. There are numerous other receipts that can be used that are easily obtained by any one interested. _ 4 I Subscribe to The Union Times.
