The farmers have been asked to produce more food of every kind. But in cheese they have a food that ft cottage is already produced on tljeir farms. To have it they do not need to plow another acre of ground, nor plant another seed, nor invest another dollar. Bound for pound cottage cheese is vn the equivalent of lean meat in food value; it contains 23 times as much lime as meat, and lime is a most valuable bone building material, absolutely necessary for growing children. Cottage cheese contains three times as much lime to the pound as a dozen eggs and is just as efficient a muscle builder a meat or eggs, and more eftieiont than beans or cereals. The U. S. department of agriculture lias launched a campaign to stimulate the use of this by pioduct of the butter industry. Over 40 per cent of the entire milk production is used in butter manufacture; whim one hundred pounds of milk is used to make buller, the result If, four pounds of butter, twelve pounds of butter milk and eighty-fou- r pounds of skim milk. Skim milk is too valuable a human food to be wasted and it can be made Into cottage cheese and utilized with great eifect. Government recipes for a large number of cottage cheese dishes may be had by application to the Federal Food Admiiistrator of Utah, room 200 New nouse Building, Salt Lake City. n j. otd "i 7 YCU Proved Loye.u r lavs mi y P,V' L'riy vii. i BY JOHN LEiSH TA1T There arc some tremendous logons to be learrmd irom the present elamt if the world strife. One of tne mist momentous of them all is a let son to America and Amor icaus a. lesson to you and mu a personal lesion which we shall do veil to accept in, its fulkst, persona! application. It is the lessort of INDIVIDUAL INTEREST in this war. The blood "of American soldiers is wet upon the trenches, and the base hospitals are ministering to American wounded. The shadow of the Death Angel, made in Germany," has fallen across your threshold and mine. It is no longer a thing detached and apart from us. We are in it. The blood of our sacrifice reeks upon the altar. It is now a per' sonal affair. We you and I must back our boys in the trenches, or forever cease to claim rank and title as Americans. The time has come when there are but two classes in this country Americans, who are for the war in which our boys are 'pouring out their ' Mood, and traitors, who are either against the war or indifferent toward it. And indifference is now, if more despicable than antago- nism. There is one thing, at least, that most of us can do to prove our aware- ness of the situation and our loyalty lo those who are fighting OUR battles over there; most of us can subscribe, n some degree, to tin Third Liberty Loan. It is totally beside the issue to point out that these bonds are a good investment. The Investment feature is not the thing in question. It may require some sacrifice to convert pres- ent holdings into holding of Liberty Loan Bonds. But as far as we can manage it, you and I, if we accept the great lesson of the hour and take our part in the baptism of American blood hich is for the cleansing of the na- lions and the rehabilitation of the world, we must come across" and "ome 'quickly and with thankfulness that it is given to us to do even so little. j any-thin- g, - industry, saving and lending to the Government are national needs and debts. national BUY LIBERTY BONljS. i ' ' j i ' |
