Dry Milk

It has been found that by certain processes it is possible to dry milk, taking all the water out and leaving a powder. This may be accomplished and still retain most of the nutritive value of the milk. Vitamin fat soluble A and water soluble B remain practically the same, but water soluble C vitamin is diminished. Babies fed on dried milk will thrive, but orange juice or some other food containing antiscorbutic properties must be given to compensate for the loss of vitamin C. Dried milk provides an adequate supply to many parts of the country and to the cities, where it is difficult to obtain fresh milk.
