GOOD HEALTH IS ¥ Here’s one “campaign” that will reap rewards in healthful energy for you and your family now and in the future. See to it that your children drink at least a quart a day, and that each adult drinks his daily pint or more. Serve milk as a delicious beverage, use it to enrich other dishes, but never waste a drop! Remember milk is a valuable wartime ally . . . essen tial to building a strong America! • Calcium is the chief builder of strong bones and teeth. A half pint of milk contains 38% of your daily calcium requirements. • Vitamins are more abundant in milk than in any other food! . . . insuring healthy body functions. • The phosphorous contained in milk helps assure healthful growth of body tissues . . . resistance to illness. • Proteins are found chiefly in milk . . . the building-blocks of muscle, skin, and hair, necessary to replace day-to-day wear and tear on the body. • Iron is the principal mineral necessary for healthful blood and bodily processes. Milk is rich in iron. I In our plant we produce only Grade A pasteurized milk. This milk is produced by herds which are under constant supervision and undergo periodic inspection by health authorities. Housing, utensils and the health of workers attending these herds are also checked to avoid tainting the milk. Thus at the source, as well as in our plant, the utmost care is exercised to see that the milk is clean, for on this one factor of absolute cleanliness depends in large measure its value as a food-beverage. We will give a case (32 lbs) of butter at the Bond Auction Tues day night (points required.) Transylvania Dairies RALPH PARRISH, Manager
