Rensselaer Republican, Volume 14, Number 37, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 1 June 1882 — No Economy. [ARTICLE]
No Economy.
The niggardliness whioh leads people to economize in the matter of food is pitiable. There ere those who really grudge ten cents for vegetables, because they say it is too dear; others will restrict their children in milk; others will buy no fish because there is nothing in it; others-will deny the little ones a refreshing orange or banana, and others will never have a pudding on the table. Moat and bread, hot cakes, chops and steaks they call cheap, because it is real food. These pcoph forget that variety really nourishes tin body, and makes up for that food which alone can supply our requirements. Besides that there is no real economy in it. Meat and bread cost more than vegetables and puddings combined with thorn. The former leave you craviDg for something else, while a good mixeadiet supplies all your wants.
