 A lock of hair of the same color as that Of Mrs. De Cordova was found in an envelope in Geissier's pocket The envelope bore the inscription in case of accident of death, place this under my pillow. Whether or not the lock of hair actually was from Mrs. De Cordova's head has not been determined.
 George Y. Bauschle of New York city, an intimate friend of MT. De Cordova, was in this city today ar ranging for the shipment of Mrs. De Cordova's body to New York city. He stated that it was preposterous to even imagine that an intimate rela- tionship existed between Mrs. De Cor dova and Geissler, and said she was wrapped up in her love for her hus- band and her two children, Eunice, aged IS, and Gladys, aged 21. He said the shooting probably was due to a sudden brainstorm or fit of in- sanity on the part of GeissIer.
 Mrs. De Corova's body was taken to New York this afternoon.

Pigeons Report on Vitamines Baked and Boiled

soda Even In raw food the vita
mines are slowly destroyed by time.
AS the temperature is raised the de-
struction is more rapid. Soda short
ems the time necessary for cooking,
but, unfortunately, it hastens the
destruction Of the vitamines.
Since the potato is an important
source of vitamine in the diet, ex-
perlments were carried out in the
nutrition laboratory of the Depart
ment of Home Economics of the
University Of Wisconsin to compare
boiled and baked potato as source
Of the anti-beri-beri vitamine. The
bmled potato was not peeled. but
was cut into slices an inch thick and
boiled fifteen minutes in a small
amount of water. We have here q
lower temperature, but a loss of
vltamine into the water. A very
small potato was chosen for baking.
1t was baked at about 300 degrees
for twenty minutes. Here we have
a higher temperature and slightly
longer time, but no loss cxcept bv
action of heat.

~ NE thing cur food must do
q for us is to supply enough
of the three 'vitamines,
i e., the growth-promoting Fat
Soluble A, found mostly in ami
nal fats (milk, eggs, etc., but
also in some of the yellow vegc-
tables; two, the Water Soluble B,
or anti-neuritic vitamine, good for
the nerves and safeguard and cure
for beri-beri. You miss this if your
food is demineralized, if you eat only
white flour and but few green, fresh
vegetables of the leaf type like spin
ach and lettuce; and three, the
anti-scorbutic yitamine, or Water
Soluble c, obtained also in fresh
fruits like oranges and raw vegeta-
bies particularly. The organs Of
animals, the parts that function, the
brain, liver, kidney, pancreas, etc.
are also said to contain vitamines
just as the leaves or functioning
parts of plants are richer sources
of these protective foods, and ami
mai fats have them where the vege-
table fats of nuts and vegetable oils
do not
We know that fresh, raw food
contains at least one of these vita
mines. However. most of oxr food
must be cooked to make it digestible.
How, rfen, are we going to cook it
so as to conserve the vitamine value
as much as possible?

Cooked and Raw Potatoes

Pigeons were chosen as the ex-
permental animals because they ex-
hiblt definite clinical picture when
they are deprived of the anti beri-
heri vitamine. Also, they are easily
fed by hand. One pigeon fed on raw
potato ate his ration voluntarily.
The others were force-fed. The ra-
ton contained all of the necessary
constituents aside from the anti
berl-beri vitamine. 1t consisted Of
the ordinary ration which is sue
cessfully used for the stock pigeons.

ton it was heated in the autoclave
for two and a half hours at fifteen
pounds pressure. This formed a
palatable food which the pigeons
ate very readily A little filtered
butter fat was added for each bird
to supply the fat soluble vitamine.

potato, pigeons developed typical

once.
She bought, year ago last sum
mer, a dozen eggs on a road lead
ing from White Plains to Valhalla
The sign said "Strictly Fresh White
Leghorn Eggs" and she paid 70
cents dozen. They were worse
than stale! A little Investigation
uncovered that the eggs were bought
at cut rate grocery store in White
Plains for SO cents dozen. The
seller kept white Leghorns, but not
enough to supply his family and all
who stopped to buy.
This farm sells Western eggs as
strictly fresh for S. cents a dozen.
1t keeps a large number of hens,
but the family and a few steady
customers use the entire supply, ex-
cept during that season when hens
are laying heavily. The surplus
then is put down in waterglass to
sell during the winter when the
profit will be larger. You can stop
in the nearest village and buy the
85-cent product any day for 50 or
70 cents.
1t is great pity, for during the
war this form of selling was pretty
clean and there was real saving in
it for the housewife. How many of
the farmers who were selling then do
not do it now. A man from whom |
formerly bought thus explains II.
