Impoverished soil, like impov-

fertilizer. A chemist by analyz-
ing the soil can tell you what
fertilizer to use for different
products.
If your blood is impoverished
your doctor will tell you what
you need to fertllize it and give
/ he rich, red corpuscles that
are lacking in it. It may be you
need a tonic, but more likely you
need a concentrated fat food,
and fat is the element lacking
N your system.
There is no fat food that is
SO easily digested and assimi-
lated as
