Thrive Well on Vegetables.

Peasants of Russia live mainly upor
thin vegetable soup, sauer kraut, rye
bread and oil. The Scotch highlander,
whose courage and hardihood are pro-
verbal, seldom touches meat, living
mainly upon oatmeal, vegetables and
buttermilk. Among the most active
and vital people of the world are the
Irish peasants, whose diet consists al
most entirely of potatoes and butter
milk. The farmers of Corsica live all
winter upon dried fruit, mainly dates
and polenta (chestnut) meal. During
the middle ages the Moors used to pro-
vision their fortified cities with chest
nuts and olive oil.
