months on milk, and nothing but milk-and thrived on it-that's a fact.

Admitted they were the first months of my life, and we all do it, but that is because milk is the only perfect all-round food we are ever offered wherever we go, and however old we may live to be. We start on it, we fall back on it when we're ill, we're drinking it at the end of our lives.

But now what with him and the Milk Marketing Board juice de vache, as the schoolboy translated it, is as near perfect
