- The Baby and the Budget
- Description
- Headlines from the New York Evening Post, the New York Tribune, and the NY Times are reproduced on this 1911 postcard created by the New York Milk Committee. They read: "The Baby and the Budget," "Why More Doctors, Nurses, and Inspectors Are Needed," and "The 'Cops' Spread the News."

A portrait of a healthy baby and a list of "Babies' Rights,"almost all of which deal with milk, are found on the postcard verso.
