In Europe there are many grape
cures" where the diet consists almost
solely of grapes, the various phos-
pilates and acids in which very per-
ceptlbly cleanse the blood and make
for health. Since this is so, grapes
should be used extensively in our diet
Barring the seeds, they are one OF the
best fruits for children, and it is from
the grape that the housewife can
evolve so many delicious jellies. mar
malades and preserves.
Since it is impossible to have ripe
grapes in all seasons, even with the
best methods of storing in sawdust.

served to great extent in grape juice
which, by the way, was not even
thought of so years ago.
