Milk is our most valuable foOd, It
must provide us with milk to drink,
with butter,' cheese, evapdrated and
concentrated milk and a score of
other products.
Canadian farmers have done a
magnificent job. They have increased
milk production in 1943 by more
than 540 million quarts over 1938.
TheY "have done this in the face
of a 25% reduction in farm, help,
equipment shortages, and the' fact
that it takes two to three years to
bring a calf into milk production.
In spite of greater production, the
demand, for milk and milk products
has risen even more, because—
(a) There's more money to spend;
(b) More people are working, with
changed food habits and in-
creased food needs;
(c) Our Armed Forces and Allies
make heavy'demands.
It' has therefore been necessary
by rationing, by ° subsidies, by
careful planning and by other
controls—to divert our milk sup-
ply into channels most suited to
ont various food needs.
The above graph shows In percentage how
the total .Canadian milk supply Is used.
CHEESE goo TAKES 10% OF OUR MILK
rt
et' 191
'PAO misso.000t1 ss, Canada's annual cheese, production has
gone up by about 37 million pounds 'since the war.
Cheese is a concentrated foOd product- 1938, easily shipped and stored. That is one
127.60006ates, reason why we send large quantities to
Great Britain to help meet its pressing
food needs. While in the last year we ex-
ported four of every five pounds of cheese We made, our production has been so
. increased that we have left for eroniestie
use about three million pounds a year
niOre,than before the war.
FLUID MILK
TAKES 35% OF OUR MILK
Because fluid milk is regarded by nutri-
tionists as the -most 'nearly perfect food,
nothing has been allowed to interfere with
its .sale, Today, 'Canadians ate drinking
more milk and a greater percentage of-,
our milk supplyis being consumed as
fluid milk--than ever before. Fluid milk
has the right of way, but don't waste a
drop of it.

The rationing of, butter was influenced
by the fact that it has less nutritive value
than some other milk products, and be-
cadge we get a generous supply of fats or
their food equiValent fn other forms.
More than twice as much (152 million lbs.)
was used by Canadians this last year as in

AMIENS, VIMY ETC.
The war has taken on a special in-
terest to 'those who took part in the
First Great War. Names. that were
rest places, battlefields, or objectives
at that time are again in the news.
The Allies have swept with lightning
speed into this northern ,section of
France and even as this is being writ-
ten on Saturday have invaded Holland.
When the veteran of 1918 reads of
Amiens being taken his mind wand-
ers back to August1918 when the Can-
adians with French and British sol-
diers broke the German lines in what
turned out to be the first great advance
in that great series of advances that
won the war. It now appears that the
present armies will take those posi-
tions in that well know part of France
and Belgium quickly. In the last war
there were years of fighting in these
areas and thousands and thousands of
Canadians lie in the cemeteries of
Flanders and France. It was during
those years of 1914-1918 that these
brave young Canadians gave their all
for freedom and democracy. To-day
Canadians are again laying down their
lives for that same ideal. That they
4o not fight in vain it is necessary to
have a complete victory and a guaran-,
tee that in another twenty-five years
this job will not again be necessary,
Lt r is,our duty to see that we have dis-
pelled wars not only for our time but
for our children and our children's
children.

THE TIDE HAS TURNED
-Five years ago the Nazi war mach-
ine invaded Poland and in six weeks
after this attack Poland capitulated.
tri swift suecessiorr after that Hitler's
army swept through Prance and the
tow Lands, walked through Den-
mark and took over in Norway, Hit-
ler was at the peak of his power. He
became so confident that he scrapped
his non-aggression pact with Russia
and went steam-rolling along until he
was Checked as his armies were clos-
ing in, on Moscow. The turn against
him started at Stalingrad when the
Russians by masterful strategy and
grim fighting won a great victory.
The destruction of the Italian army in
the desert by the British and then the
route of the 4Germans in the Middle
East by the Allies were also great
feats. Now the Russians are nearing
Germany in Several locations and on
a wide front, The other Allies have
tarried out their plan sa far in Prance
in splendid fashion and are away ahead
of schedule, The war looks most
favourable to our forces, Ali this has
been taking place in the last five
years., The A.Illes made certain that
they were well prepared to make the
thrust into enemy territory before they
moved, The Rnssians backed up
attagetie tetreat Until they had le-
ontrimulated the power to push the
German forces tack, The end of the
vier" its Europe is in sight, according
t6 high officials, but will be only made
denifite by the continual efforts of the
various Services and the 4mtiring ef-
forts of the home front---now is not
the tittle te relax.
WHEN CHILDREN DIE
The tragic death of children in an
English community when a militaiy
airplane crashed in their midst arous-
ed widespread pity and sympathy.
Ironically, nothing has,been said about
some 240 children in England and
Wales who were choked to death by
diphtheria in four weeks ending April
29 last—or the hundreds of other Brit-
ish children who have fallen victims
to preventable diseases this year. Are
our tears to be confined to those chil-
dren who die dramatically?
According to statistical reports,
there were 2,420 cases of diphtheria in
England and Wales during the four
weeks mentioned. About 10 per cent
of diphtheria:, cases today are fatal.
Many of the patients, who recover,suf-
fer serious complications.
Thus, like falling aircraft or enemy
missiles, infectious diseases take their
toll in dead and maimed. The differ-
ence is this: All the valor and skill
of the armed forces", and all that par-
ents can do, cannot protect all children
against the violence of war or acci-
dents associated with warfare. But
loving parents can and should protect
their little ones against preventable
diseases for which simple, safe im-
munization procedures are available.
Our tears for the little children who
died and were maimed in the crash of
the airplane cannot bring them back.
But we can protect children against
diseases which kill and maim just as
surely as violent accidents associated
with war. This applies in Canada as
well as -in the British Isles. This is
the objective of National Iinmuniz-
anon Week, September 10-16, sponsor-
ed by the. Health League of Canada
in co-operation with Health Depart-
ments throughout Canada.
