Adequate Food Family
Pound Rice "a Pound;

made of the whole grain, it would alone suffice
to support the body The same is true of RICE
rye, barley and oats. But for health other things
are needed, particularly fats and fresh vege-
tables
Potatoes are an excellent fuel food. They
furnish much starch in digestible form, but
not much body building stuff. The same may
be said Of cor1meal, which is almost entirely
lacking in the latter element. Corn is, for this
reason the least valuable of the cereal grains
in the diet.
1t is entirely safe to rely upon cereals Gin
Guiding bread to supply the bulk of the fam
lily diet. They afford very wholesome and
economical basis on which to construct the bill
Of fare. Grddle cakes waffles and cornbread
are appetizing, well as nourishing. So, like
wise, are the prepared breakfast foods, which
are rendered even more sustaining by the addi-
ton of milk and sugar.
Care should be taken, however, to make the
cereal foods as palatable as possible This
means good bread, well-prepared oatmeal or
hominy, and inexpensive but well-made and
thoughtfuly -seasoned cakes and puddngs In
most households hominy is not cooked nearly
long enough to be really good
Few people in this country, outside of the
Southern States know how to boil rice. The
average Northern woman regards as mystery
the process whereby any darby nanny of
the old school can turn out dish Of rice in
which each swollen and pulpy grain stands out
by ITSELF distinct from the mass
The explanation is almost amusingly simple.

The housewife should not be above noticing whether
anything disable is thrown away with the garbaee-ths

used in the household

especially required by children as source of
lime for their growing bones. A child should
have plenty of milk-at least a quart of whole
milk per day, for drinking or combined with
other foods.
Skim milk should never be substituted for
whole milk in child s diet. On the other hand,
it is just as good for grown persons, as source
OF bodybuilding stuff and mineral substances.
And it is further suggested that child does
not need milk at the same meal with eggs or
meat.
Fats, such as butter oil or cream. are an i'm
Portant and even necessary contribution TO the
diet Not only are they useful as body fuel but
they improve the flavor of foods and render
them more appetizing Dishes cooked without
lat and meals served without butter seem to
most people dry and unpalatable
Other foods very rich in fat are bacon salt
pork, lard and suet No housewife needs to- be
told how valuable these things are for kitchen
purposes.
Another valuable fuel food is sugar It NAV
take the form, as used on the table, of moasses.
syrup or other sweets. But unless it contributes
in some shape to the diet, the latter lacks flavor
and is unsatisfactory
Certain newly discovered substances, called
vitamines, are now recognized as playing an
important part in keeping people well and in
promoting the growth of children. Without
milk IN the diet, some of these substances would

The secret of making inexpensive meals at

ings Vinegar, lemon juice, spices, seasoning
herbs and favoring extracts contribute nothing
to the food value of dishes, but they may be
very useful to render things appetizing.

ates the necessity of a "well-
balanced" diet, which should
afford to each individual every
thing required for the making
of the various body tissues, for
running the body machine and
for keeping the body in health.
A point not to be forgotten
is that fresh fruits and vege-
