ing milk which will help give
your family some of the daily re
quirements of this complete food.
Milk is one of the best foods you
can get. It contains many vita
mins and minerals, also fats, su
gars, and high-quality proteins.
HOW MUCH MILK is enough’
—Nutritionists consider calcium
needs chiefly when they figure the
amounts of milk to include in
daily foods for good nutrition.
From infancy all the way through
the teens, it takes large amounts
of calcium to keep up with the
growing boy’s calcium needs.
Prospective mothers need a great
deal of milk for calcium. Other
adults can get along with less, but
not with so little as they often
think.
Here are the amounts recom
mended by nutritionists for use
daily.
Children: three to four cups
Teen-ages: four or more cups
Adults, all ages, two or more
cups
Expectant mothers: four or

MILK IN THE DIETER’S DIET
Milk is relied on as a basic
food in up-to-date diets for either
losing or gaming weight. When
reducing weight is the goal, milk
pays its way by contributing gen
erous amounts of protein, cal
cium, and other needed nutrients,
along with a very moderate num
ber of calories. For the calories in
one four-inch wedge of pie, you
can have a pint of whole or al
most a quart of skim milk.
If you re keeping down calories,
remember that when you choose
skim milk (fluid or dry) or butter
milk, you get all of the many nu
trients in whole milk, except fat
afnd vitamin A. Research has
shown that an individual gets
along best during slimming when
more protein than usual is ' in
the diet. It’s an added reason for
including a good deal of milk, par
ticularly skim milk or butter
milk, in reducing diets.
GIVE MILK GOOD HOME CARE
At doorstep or kitchen, milk
comes into the homemaker’s care.
Without proper handling, the
milk her family uses may lose
quality in cleanliness, flavor,
and food value.
To keep fresh milk at its best,
follow the rule of three C’s and
a D. Keep milk Clean, Cold, Cov
ered, and Dark. Milk holds both
food value and flavor best when
kept cold. Stored near the freez
ing unit, milk can be expected to
keep good quality and flavor for
three or four days, perhaps a lit
tle longer.
When milk in clean-glass con
tainers stands in a sunny window
or unprotected on a doorstep, it
loses riboflavin, and may develop
a ‘ sunlight” off-flavor all in as
brief a time as half an hour.
When using milk, keep it out of
the refrigerator just long enough
to pour the amount wanted for
immediate use.
Don’t mix new milk with old,
unless for immediate use. Bac
teria that cause stale flavor in
crease in stored milk, .even, in
pasteurized milk in good storage
shipped topping (made from nonfat dry
milk) give new glamor to dessert ginger

conditions.
THERE’S MANY A WAY to get
milk into meals Many people
find milk refreshing and never
tire of drinking it plain. How
ever, cooked foods and other pre
pared foods offer many additional
ways to get milk into daily food,
