Carrots.

No supply of vegetables for the ia
Die is complete without carrots. When
We think of the vitamins in our diet,
the carrot has all three. Iron is an ele-
ment necessary to body structure and
Is essential to the growth of all active
icells, and In the carrot we find iron.
! 1t requires calcium to help In the
development of the bones, and large
number of vegetables are lacking in
this requirement, but the carrot is
found on the right side because it con.
Itains this mineral.
Carrots are not a cure for all ills
but are beneficial for the upbuildins
of the body and should be used in thu
ldiet more freely. Carrots resemble
turnips, beets and parsnips In thel
carbohydrate content and have larg
content of sugar.
Because raw carrots are particu
larry good for the diet, we give tn
recipes for:

 Be Greatly Reduced

Business firms operating heavy automobile trucks probably will take their appeal for a reduction in the H. cense fees to the board of compro- mise as a result of their not being able to obtain relief from the tax commission, according to J. C.. Hodges. president of the w. M. Cos by Flour and Grain company, Thurs day night. MT. Hodges was a mem Der of the committee which appeared before the state tax commission at Montgomery.
 The present tax, amounting to as high as $1,000 for heavy trucks, was described by Mr. Hodges as prohibi- tive, it's purpose being to keep heavy lumber trucks off the country roads. Trucks operated by Birmingham firms are never used on any but city streets, which they do not harm, he said, and should not be penalized. s The committee appearing before the tax commission was composed of George T. Wofford, president or the Wofford oil company; J. B. Hill, president of the Hill Grocery com pany; Stanley Knecht, president of the Plosser-K -Knecht Flour and Grain company; J. c.
