We must produce plenty. We are planning to send to the Brit ish during 1042 dairy products that will require between 4; _• and 5 billion pounds of milk, about Yz billion dozen eggs, 18 million pounds of poultry meat—chicken for the most part, almost a billion and a halt pounds of pork and lard. We have promised to sen 1 almost a million and a quarter tons of fruit and more than two and a half million cases of canned vegetables.” Use your electric service to produce more eggs, more milk, more meat, and more vegetables! Electricity will take over many farm chores while farm labor is less available. Produce more eggs with Electric lights and Electric water warmers in the hen-house. Produce heavier, healthier poultry with Electric brooders and ultra-violet lamps! Produce more milk with balanced feed ground Electrically. Produce more vegetables in your garden irrigated with plenty of water from an automatic Electric water system! Cooperate with your County Agricultural Defense Board and Pro duce More Food for Defense!

(Absorbic Acid). This vitamin is essentr’l for growth and mainten ance oi normal bone and teeth structure and for the proper hcal ing of wounds. In addition, an ade quate supply of Vitamin C may result in Anemia, Hemorrhagi . Pyoorhea and certain gum condi tions. Aside from the daily ser vice of fresh fruits they should frequently be included among the desserts. lianuna Apple Betty 2 tart apples, peeled 3 firm bananas peeled 3-4 cup sugar 1-2 tsp. cinnamon 1-4 tsp. salt 3 cups soft bread crums 3 tsp. melted butter Slice apples, cut bananas in 1-2” pieces.

C. Home - Grown Fruits Will Help National Offense In 1911—or until December 7— the United States was engaged in National Defense. In 1912 the U nited States is engaged in “Nat ional Offense.” Miss Mary E. Thomas. Exten sion nutritionist of N. C. Stale College, says the change from “defense” to “offense” re-empha sizes the need for every American to he well fed. Fresh fruits, she says, must be present in generous amounts for a healthful diet. “We were alarmed when the results of recent studies by the Bureau of Economies were announ ced,” Miss Thomas declared. “They showed that half of the people in the United States were inadequa tely fed . . . yes, half of aur peo ple don’t get the foods they need for maximum efficiency. “Now that America needs to put forth every effort to win this war, there's all the more reason to ter, juice and cinnamon. Wash o ranges, cut in thick slices and place in the hot syrup. Boil gently without covering until the rind is clear. Chill in syrup before serv ing as u meat garnsh. Sauted Pineapple Saute or broil pineapple slices slowly in melted butter until fhey become a lovely brown. Serve p’p ing hot, beside any meat, fish or fowl, pancake, waffles, ham and eggs or almost any hot food. ; A stress nutrition,” she continued. "It would be different if we couldn’t grow fresh fruits and vegetables, but there is no ex cuse for any farm family to do without these protective and vi tamin-rish foods.” The Extension specialist says that sconce has proved the old saying, “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” She declared, “In the apple, Nature has prepar ed for us the most compact pack age of health giving food that we possess.” Miss Thomas says that a com plete fruit garden for the averag" farm family can be planted o« a half acre of grouid. Experimental investigations have shown that an orchard of one half acre in size is more profitable for the average farm than an orchard of one acre or more. ‘No farmer, if his work is properly managed, jshould be handicapped or delayed by a fruit garden,” she concluded.
