Milk-Vegetable Soup.

Don’t throw away left-over skim milk, says the United States department of agriculture. It is a nutritious food and every drop of it should be used. One way to utilize it is to make milk-vegetable soups. ( > To each two cupfuls of milk use one tablespoonful of flour, one tablespoonful of butter, two-thfrds of a cupful of a thoroughly cooked vegetable, finely dropped, mashed or put through a sieve, and salt to taste. Thicken the milk with the flour as for milk gravy and add the other ingfedients. Practically any vegetable except tomatoes may be used with the other ingredients as stated. If tomatoes are used, a little soda should be added to them to prevent the milk from curdling. ' Milk is the most important food there is for growing children.
