Whenever the housewives atten-

must necessarily consider, at least,
the four phases Of the. subject; prin-
ciples, preparation, proportion and
purpose.
The food must supply. to the body
building material, both for growth
and repair. 1t must also furnish en-
ergy with which to, keep the body
warm and furnish motive power.
If it is to do these things, food TAX
en- into the body must contain those
substances which will furnish the
necessary nutrients for them. A GER

of the nuts are rich in nitrogen and

Fats and oils are one Of the most

Grains and starchy vegetables, to-

necessary in the diet and we cannot
afford to leave out even one of them.
The careful housewife will, there
fore, make it a point to select food
stuffs with regard to their nutritive
value. -..,
All persons would not thrive on the
very same food materials, though
they might have ever so high a nu-
tritiVe value.
Preference in Foods
Personality enters into the value
of foods in the body It is a fact food
taken with pleasure is more easily
and fully digested than that taken
under less favorable conditions.
It is necessary that we should
learn to prepare our foods so they
will prove appetizing as well as of
the greatest possible food value. In
the preparation of the food the care
full housewife will study the best
methods so the nutrients contained
in the food may be rendered more
available, and at the same time made
as palatable as possible; nor will she
overlook the manner Of serving food
in an attractive manner.

The food administration has issued
the following statement:
a total decrease of 1i5,CC5,OC0 in

exports have chiefly gone to our al

has decreased by 100000 head.
Although the European countries
have drastically reduced meat con.
sumption among nonwar workers, this
saving has been overcome by the
greatly increased demands to supply

the women who have taken up physi.

great that Europe has been eating into
