MILK AND ITS PRODUCTS

on milk alone, and when adults are sick with fever or 

 certain digestive troubles, it is often the main food 

 taken for a long time. This is because milk furnishes 

 the necessary building and fuel materials with little 

 tax on the digestive organs.

A Hygienic, but Inexpensive Dairy Stable. 



Skimmed milk has lost nearly all of its fat, and should 

 be much less expensive than pure milk. Nevertheless, 

 it still has the proteid, sugar, and salts, and is such 

 a useful food that two quarts, which cost about six 

 cents, have a greater building value than a quart of 

 oysters costing from twenty-five to forty cents. A 

 pint of milk and a few slices of bread will furnish as 

 much building material as a lunch of beef, vegetables, 

 bread, butter, and coffee, and at a much smaller cost.
