MILK AS STRENGTH
BUILDER ADVOCATED
Dr. Mae Cardwell, Back From
Washington. Advises
Housewives.
dairy situation, in spue ol nign prices
of feed and scarcity of labor, ts not all
gloom.
Reports have come to him
from various parts of the state show
lng that the housekeepers are begin
ning to see that they must pay more
for milk than they did a few years ago.
The dairymen are beginning to take
heart, too, in some instances and are
looking to the future when the cow
of today will be worth much more
money alive than she would now,
slaughtered. And that future Isn't so
far off tf the dairymen only continue
to have courage and patience.
The wise man and the one who is
far-seeing, Is keeping his herds intact.
True, he won't keep the old boarder
who would just eat the food and bring
no returns, but he is holding his good
stock. The sensible housewife, too,
must know a man can’t feed and care
for cows, keep a first class dairy, and
provide clean bottles and well paid
deliverymen without some expense.
The Oregon Dairy Council is doing
much to get the situation straightened
out. The exhibit nt the state fair, the
splendid cooperation of the Food Ad­
ministration. the public schools, Ore­
gon Agricultural College and the Bu­
reau of Health, all help the educational
work and are part of the great task of
"keeping the home fire« burning,”
which task includes the preservation
of essential home industries and the
health of the nation.
. Dr. Mae H. Cardwell, of Portland,
who recently returneu to Oregon from
Gary, Ind., New York and Washington,
where she was engag >d in medical re­
search work for the Children’s Bureau
of the Department of Labor, said In
an interview : ’’The dairy Industries
must be encouraged. The children of
America must have milk. They can­
not thrive without good clean milk.
Housewives must use more milk. If
they demand it the dc.irytr.an will find
some solution to his problems and will
see that his cows get the feed and that
he keeps them alDe and In good
health. However, If the women don't
order the milk, the dairyman Isn't go­
ing to keep his cows around Just as
pets and ornaments.
Feed Is too
scarce and labor too t gh for that. It's
up to the housekeepers.
