Yosemite Park.

From the Book of National Parks,
S~cribners' Sons Publishers.
In the impressive surroundings Of the
Yosemite National Park in California, f.
e. Matthes, of the United States geolog-
ical survey, will this month announce in
. scr!es Of three lectures q new and final
solution of the long debated problem Of
the origin Of the Yosemite valley in Cali
fornia.
The fact, as advanced by Matthes, Is
that tie Yosemite valley was cut froH; the
solid granite nearly to its present depth
by the MERGED river. long before the be-
ginning Of the glacial period; before the
glaciers arrived the river cut valley was
already 2,400 feet deep opposite FL Captain,
The valley was hen V-shaped, and the
which are now the Yosemite falls were
500 feet deep and those of Sentinel creek
1000 feet deep.
1t was not the dawdling modern MERGED
river that cut this schasm, but a torrent
which, day and night for several million
years, swept with terrific force down a
sharply tilted bed, sand papering its path
with the friction of the masses of sand
and granite fragments borne down from
the high Sierra. That the river could con-
tinue in this process for millions Of years
without cutting down to a level, choking
up with the sane n gravel it carried,
and eventually slowing up, was due to the
frequent fitting and shifting Of the Sierra
throughout Its geological history. For the
present Sierra Nevada Is not the first
mountain chain upon its site.

Y0uNGAND FRESH
VEGETABLES

Feed the children a lot of fresh vege-
tables and fruits. They need 1t and like
It. a lot of experimental work has been
done on vegetables during the last two
years. Much Of it has been lone in an
effort to find out. whether dried vege-
tables can take the place Of fresh ones.
One discovery has been that vegetables
vary greatly as they, mature. Fresh,
youi'E, tender vegetables are far better
TOT US than older, tougher ones. In fact,
fresh, young. tender vegetables, after
aayfns been dehydrated, have moro anti
scurvy substance than old, tough, un-
~dehydrated ones. Therefore it is NOT aG-
ylsable to ~dehydrate old, tough. matured
vegetables. Select the young, tender
ones.
Guinea pigs could be cured OF scurvy
by feeding them ~dehydratcd carrots, pro-
vided the roots dehydrated We're young
and tender. 1t was likewise found that
prolonged heating extracted the anti
scurFy. principle from carrots. If young
carrots are boiled for 20 minutes and
then permitted to finish cooking by allow
ing them to stand in the hot water they
retained the anti-scurvy principle. If
they We're boiled longer theyi1lost it. :
Nothing is better for young children
}than tomato juice. IT not only prevents
scurvy, but 1t has anti-neuritic proper
ties. When pigeons are fed too long and
monotonously on a diet that is wrong in
certain ways they get neuritis and
eventually become paralyzed. Human
beings w neuritic pains and even q
disease Similar to that referred to in
pigeons and known as heriberi. 1t has
been found that plenty of tomato Juice
is a remedy for these neuritic difficulties
as well.
But the tomatoes must be fresh, tender.
and not at all spoiled. In cooking the
heat must not be too long applied. If
fresh, youn tomatoes are used and the
heating is properly done the pulp can be
canned and. even after a year or more
it is a cure for mild scurvy and an anti.
neuritlc as we'll as a preventative for
the disease conditions referred to.
Falk, Mcclure and Blount say that to
get prime products in canning and de-
MIGRATING vegetables the goods must be
young md tender: they must not be
over ripe, and they must be ook at a
high temperature; for a short time.
Another suggestion that seems to Of
fer much is that We make use OF yeast as
a staple article of diet. 1t is especially
promising as a food for persons between
10 and 20 years of age. Yeast is a plant.
1t grows rapidly and is inexpensive to
produce. 1t has not the limitations of
wheat which can only be grown on rich
soil or OF beef which is expensive to pro-
duce. However, it einains for the cooks
to learn to make p%alatable dishes of it
and for the growers to put it on a COM
! mercial basis.

it would be better if he did. 1t takes
