Nutrition Nuggets.

The food value of rich preserves
and jellies IS largely due to the sugar
contained in them. Simply stewed
fruit. of course. has a far higher
percentage of the valuable mineral
salts.
Many persons who think that eggs
are bad for them find that they can
digest the yolks with ease. The white
is almost pure albumen, and while
nourishine is extremely difficult for
some digestionS. Young children
should be given only half an egg at
a time or the yolk without the white.
Egg yolk contains d rich store Of
fat, and is one of the most Valuab
of foods. containing, besides, iron,
lime and phosphorus.

Because of the delicate nature of
children's digestion, due to immatu-
rity, it is rarely safe TO give an exact
diet for any illness unless one can
watch the children. 1t seems to me
that the best thing ! can do for you
is to outline perfectly normal diet
for child Of this age. This Will
give you something to work toward
and you can begin gradually with
moderate portions OF each or the
foods. watching him very carefully
until YOU have finally brought him
To the point Of taking the entire diet.
One of my strongest theories is that
children of this age are frequently
made i'll by the simplest food because
Of very large portions. This is such
a simple thing to remember that 1t
is sometimes surprising TO see what
good results will follow. Mothers are
so apt to forget how tiny the young
children's digestive organs are. Por.
tions that seem only normal may very
easily be too much. while a smaller
serving of any one of the foods could
be easily taken care Of.
Here Is diet: For breakfast
three times a week. five or six table
spoons OF orange or prune juice, two
tablespoons Of oats or wheat served

Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED
Obedience.

1t is plain to even the most casual
beholder that the mother who ap.
parently works the least to gain
obedience Is usually the parent whose
children obey her quiet orders with
out comment, and the one who shreks
at them and is constantly demanding
and bewailing her inability to make
them mind" is the mother whose
fiercest behests are met with sullen
disobedience.
Some mothers start out when the
children are hardly at the walking
stage to see that they obey. All we'll
and good Children should obey, but
the real idea Of obedience is not that
child shall walk a chalk line laid
down by selfish mother, who thinks
Of no one but herself, but that there
shall be such faith and trust in her
self built up by the mother that a
child will obey when she asks because
he has come to know that this Is the
best plan for both of them.
Tiny babies do not understand rea-
sontng. but they sense injustice. One

who is never allowed to follow out any
OF his whims. which TO him may be
Vitally important, but is constantly
thWarted because otherwise he might

Suppose small Jane wants to play
with some object which in her baby
hands might come to danger. One
sort OF mother will jerk this precious

a smart slap and say GROSSLY, Don't

naughty baby" She thinks that
will teach Jane obedience. All it
teaches Jane ia to be d trifle slyer the
next time when she goes after that
particular object. The hand slap is
forgotten-a momentary sting that
meant nothing in connection with the
object.
The other type OF mother will also
take the object from James hands and
explain gently that this belongs to
mother. but that mother will give Jane
something TO play with that shall be

mother gently substitutes something

ii appear that such a possession Is far
preferable to the first one, Jane IS
happy.
Both mothers have accomplished
their object of getting the cherished
vase. or what not, away from Jane.
but in the latter case Jane will be
satisfied-she will feel no impulse Of
anger because the vase has been taken
nor toward her mother who took it:
while the first Jane will cry herself
into a rage and nothing but that one
object will satisfy her. One mother
has begun TO teach obedience in the
right Way--the other has forced Obedi-
ence on an unwilling child and stimu-
lated nothing except rage az its own
helplessness.

This means that you have consider
able reducing TO do. Sometimes when
the weight is as far above normal as
yours there is something likely to
cause this that only a physician can
find out. l. therefore. advise you first
of all 70 be sure that there is no such
cause in your case.
Granting that you are otherwise IN

advice about reducing. Since your
regular daily diet is resulting in your
present state of overweight. it is evi-
dent that you must change it. The
only safe way TO reduce is by cutting
down on food. Every time the body
gains a pound this means that the in
dividual has eaten food furnishing
about 1000 Calories or measurements
OF energy If a gradual reduction of
food will not help you TO gain your
normal weight then. as | said before,
you must consult Il physician.
You do not tell me what your occu-
patton is This has considerable to do
with the energy requirements. If you
are at home your exercises will be
more vigorous than il you are an office

more than 1900 calories of energy a

bread is practically the same as white
as regards digestihility.
Not every one realizes that the
term biscuit is an adaptation of two
French words meaning twice baked.
''Twicehaked' dough. such as we find
in crackers and crisp biscuits, is more
nearly ready for digestion than soft
dough.
The slight change that takes place
in Cold-storage food. whether fish or
meat or eggs. has been found to
leave the food in a perfectly whole

counted upon for full food value If it

CHEESE INDUSTRY
ENJOYS HEALTHY GROWTH

Chees factories in Watauga coun-
ty for the month of May received
100000 pounds of milk. They paid an
average of 14.9 cents per gallon, a.
mounting to $17S0, which was dis
tributed in a small area of Watauga
County. The Brushy Factory having
the largest output paid >16 cents per
gallon and paid its patrons over one
thousand dollars for May milk.
For the month of April farmers
around Milwaukee, Wis. received
14.6 per gallon for the same quality
of milk delivered to the factory. The
U. S. Department of Agriculture says
mat q gallon of milk can be made
in North Carolina for "a per cent
less than it can be produced in Wis
consin. The average COW in North
Carolina produces 33 per cent less
milk than the average cow in Wis
consin This of course offsets the
lower cost of production. But if the
dairymen of Watauga county will
improve their herds it will give them
a great advantage over the dairymen
in the north.
The largest dairymen in Watauga
for the month of May received a
check amounting to $274. He sold
his milk to chees factory at 16 cts
per gallon.
An order was received this week
from cheese dealer in New York
for one car load of cheese or one
thousand daisies. Watauga factories
sell their cheese as fast as they can
make them. After l received this or
der | visited the factories and found
less than fifty daisies in the county.
With very small effort on the part
of the milk producer Watauga Co.
county could be receiving fifty thou
sand dollars per month for cheese.
More Swiss equipment will be in
stalled at the Brushy Fork factory
in the near future. At a recent meet
ing of the directors they voted to pay
2 cents per gallon more for milk that
is manufactured into Swiss cheese.
They will not wait until the cheese
are sold but will pay it at the end
of each month.-H. L. Wilson, cheese
