One of the most important announce ■nien's we’ve had the good luck to make ■to the farmers of this county in a good ■many years is just this: the Jobson Kysteni of common sense farming is ■coming to this county —and coming to Bay.

I Too much can't be said for this sys- Bem and John 13. Jobson’s remarkable ■low which has already done so much Bor other sections of the South. To Bum it up briefly, this plow' cheapens Bie process of deep tilling and places ■m benefits of the most improved ■et hod- within the reach of the “one ■css” farmer as well as the big ■anter. ■ Realizing this, a number of the best i a: and most, progressive merchants in our Hiunty have gone into the work of i fccuring these plows and giving out I ■formation about the Jobson methods. gentlemen are well known and [ their interest in bringing this benefit the communities they serve will be by every man, woman and Hjid who realizes just what this thing | Is [going to mean to us. to ottr local agencies, Maj.

Food , mcludes everything taken into the system capable directly or indi jectiy to build up the normal struc tt.ie, repair waste, or produce energy m any form. A perfect diet is a mixture of food materia Is of various kinds, in stich quantity as is needed to keep up the normal structure of the body or re pair all waste, or needed to produce energy. The human body is_ a complex or ganism made up of an assemblage of units, which are called cells. These cells require the proper fuel or food, to develop their full perfec-! non, or the proper proportions inci-' dent to a healthy body and life. It is easy to divide food materials into two parts—those derived from the vegetable kingdom, and those derived from the animal kingdom, and from these two kingdoms we secure the fuel w-hich supplies the body with the four great chemical elements requir ed as necessary ingredients of all the tissues of the body namely, oxygen, hydrogen, carbon and nitrogen. Nitrogen is a tissue builder, the other three oxygen, hydrogen and carbon, are force producers—to be used as- fuel, develop the muscles and (other structures, and also conserve j food and fuel for future use in the i body structure. All the food materials used hv man 1 food, are placed by the chemist j under three heads. Proteins. Carbo ' hydrates and Fats. In addition to these l three foods we have other substances vital to the existence of animal cells, namely water and mineral salts. Proteins in, food furnish nourish ment to the muscles. Carbohydrates, furnish the necessary heat, and muscular activity or energy, and furnish that part which is stored up as a reserve fuel, which is in the form of starch, and fat. Carbohydrates are also the sugars. Carbohydrates j and fats are capable of replacing one another in the human diet to some ex- j tent. For example, those living in a i cold climate derive their energy from j fatty foods, while those living in a I warm climate from starchy foods. Fats are very essential, and a lack >f fat in the diet leads to constipa tion. “The blood needs fat as ammuni tion fer kilting germs” and - people who aat a sufficient amount of fat never ’ear tuberculosis, that is why we feed :od liver oil and olive oil to consutnp . fives. A man’s bedy is mafniiy water, in fact it makes up nearly two-thirds of his weight. Therefore, a perfect food must contain a large amount of water to replace the constant losses occurring during the twenty-four hours. (It is well to bear in mind that the ordinary meal is completely digested in four to six hours.) Meats are generally more readily assimilated than vegetables, but it is probable that too much meat Is eaten by. many, and that the protein excess produces a large excess of irritant waste matters, which will cause gout, Bright’s disease, and many arterial changes, producing a very high blood pressure. Therefore, U is advisable that a mixed diet is the only rational diet for a healthy, vigorous man. Sometimes we have to confine our selves to a limited diet, either from sickness or necessity, and milk is the one article in food to which we ran confine ourselves. Milk, and its by-products, is one of the greatest single food articles for man’s food, and at the same time it may he the most dangerous'and des tructive carriers of disease that we have. Milk is the natural food of man. It is the first food given to the young baby—and also the young animal —the pig, the goat, the calf, all know t.he great value of this wonderful food, and while it is an essential food, it is not a perfect food. It contains near ly all the foodstuffs in a form easily assimilated. Starch is not present, neither is iron, and: for this reason one using milk constantly or living on a striekly mffik diet may become ane mic. Bread and milk mixed is a good food, as bread supplies the lacking iron. The catbphydrates being found in the better. That w&a six yean ago and I am still here and am a well, strong woman, and I owe my life to Cardui. I had only taken half the bottle when I began to feel better. The misery In my side got less... I continued right on taking the Cardui until I had taken three bottles and I did not need any more for I was well and never felt better In my life... I have never had any trouble from that day to this." Do you suffer from headache, back ache, pains In sides, or other discom forts, each month? Or do you feel weak, nervous and fagged-out? If so, give Cardui, the woman’s tonic, a trial. J. 71 THE BARTOW TRIBUNE-THE CART ERSVILLE NEWS*. SEPT. 20 1917 the form of lactose, or milk-sugar, which is a sugar ditfierent from the sugar found lu vegetables and fruits. When milk first comes from the cow the fat is suspended in small par ticles throughout the water, giving the milk its yellow tint. The fat rises to the top in a few hours in the form of .cream. The proteins, sugar and asth are disolved in the water. When milk reaches the stomach the protein sep arates from the water in the form of curd. This change is brought about by a ferment called rennin. which is present along with pepsin in the gas triet juice of the stomach. Curd is a’ so formed by the souring of milk through the action of bacteria. Milk should never be gulped down, but taken in sips, so that only small portions of curd are formed in the stomach, because they are easier to digest than large ones. It is better to take milk with bread or some other food, or cook it with some other food article. The composition of cow’s milk may be expressed as follows: Fat 4.00 Sugar 5.00 j Proteins 3.30 Mineral matter 0.70 ! Total solids 13.00 Water 87.00 100.00 It differs from human milk in con la imng tw’ce as much protein and salts, the proportion of fat and sugar being about the same. Therefore, to make cow’s milk of approximately the same composition as woman’s mi k, it usual to dilute it with equal bulk of water and to add cream and sugar. The composition of woman’s milk varies from day to day and from hour to hour. Bacteria multiply in milk to a won dei ful extent, even with the most per fect conditions. Fresh milk contains some hacteria— which comes mostly 1 from the udder. If there is a perfect system of clean ! line ss and sanitary surroundings in 1 and around the dairy and milk house, and the milk always kept at a tem perature below 50 degrees, bacteria will not multiply for several days. These bacteria are unwholesome | and very poisonous. In some cases they produce many intestinal diseases. The infectious diseases generally transmitted by contaminated milk, cheese and ice cream, are tubereulo sis, typhoid fever, cholera, dysentary, diptheria, scarlet fever. Typhoid fever, cholera and dysen tary bacteria, contaminate the milk through water which is used to dilute the milk, or in washing the utensil:- with, or through the dirty hands of he milkers. And other diseases may be transmitted in the same manner with the same source of infection from un san i t ary surround ing. The tuberculosis germs are mostly derived from a diseased cow. tubercu losis cows expeOl the tuberculosis bac illa mostly through the feces. The milk is infected through the dust and manure of the stables and stalls. Therefore it is very important that cows should be groomed and washed so that all inorusted fecal matter be removed from their bodies and their stalls be kept in a perfect sanitary condition. Ice cream is a frozen product of milk and sugar, and is one of the most dangerous carriers of poisonous bac teria, if not secured, and made, kept and served in a perfect sanitary way. Ice cream is considered fine of the best foods in many stomach troubles, and especially in convalescence after some fevers. But if not made perfectly clean and sanitary, and served in the very cleanest way, prove one of the most, dangerous carriers of bacteria we contend with. Butter is completely sterilized in cooking, and generally consumed by the eater in small quantity and the danger of- being a diesase carrier is lessened thereby, provided it is kept stored in a temperature of not over 50 degrees, and is handled in a perfect sanitary manner, and well screened from flies. Butter miifk can be highly infected with disease bacteria, which may be contained in the cream from which it may be derived. This is one of the most nutritious foods we have and well assimilated by the weakest stom ach. Cheese may be infected as the other products of milk are, but as cheese is not eaten after it has been made sev eral months, it thereby becomes prac tically free from infectious tmeteria before consumed. Cheese is a richer food than meat. One (round of cheese has nearly the same food value as two pounds of fresh beef or three pounds of fresh fish. It is not as a rule as di gestable as meat. Skim milk is the lower layer of the milk with the fat or cream removed. I am a groat believer of skim milk as a human food, but I do not wish to be understood as believing or saying that skirt! milk shopOd be used or sold un der any other name than skim milk. We have in skim milk a cheap hu man food, easily digestible and a roodt elegant cooking adjunct in the kitchen. The annual output of skim milk in the United States is about 30 billion pounds yielding about 1,020 million pounds of protein, 90 million pounds of fat, and 1,530' pounds of milk sugar. It is stated on the best authority that in normal times in Germany 25 cents will buy 538 food units in the form of beef. 552 food units in the form of poultry, 1615 fowl units in thejorm of whole milk, 2317 food units in the form of butter milk. 2562 food units in the form of skim milk. It is considered by these excellent people and by a .people who have prov en themselves to be the most efficient in science on earth, as their best cheap food for a poor man’s family. Asa beverage skim milk is nor to he despised,, even by the rich. There are only a few cases in ihe kitchen in which skim milk cannot be I substituted for whole milk and in i many cases the use of skrm milk im proves the article cooked. In the case of cooking cake if the skim milk *s sour so much the better, as only °“ e ‘ hafff of the levening agent called for in the receipt will be nee<led. We have had and are having at this date many cases of fever in Carters ville. Whether it is caused from the we' l known unsanitary condition of the own, or for the lack of sewerage, or from the water supply, or from some source of infection in the milk and ice cream served to the people, I do not at this time know, but 1 do know tnat there is a source of infection and “ ma >' lie from one of these causes. Therefore, let the people demand a more perfect system of health regula tions, and the establishment and the appointment of a B ard of Health with the authority and the power to have supervision and enforcement of who cherish steady -Nj|p Tjjfe- . ; ,:Sy nerves and clear eyes 1 ‘'-W TteSSy sljkV drink ? 7 Chero-Cola ' W ■ “In a bottle — Through a straw QSfPeSMMG pf 0 mm no EAD AEFEN EFFECT, Health is more precious than all the gold of bjW Croesus.
