CANNED FRUITS
AND VEGETABLES
Full of Vitamins, Should Be
Eaten Daily, Says Doctor

DR.. Morris Fishbein, Editor Of
the Journal of the American Medi-
cal Association, recently wrote in
the New York Telegram about
canned fruits and vegetables. II all
of the women could read this article,
more canning factories would have
to be built in hurry.
He makes this startling state
ment: Scanned tomatoes, and
canned spinach have been tested
three years after canning and the
evidence did not indicate any ape
preciable loss in vitamins. Indeed,
the canned tomatoes after three
years were as rich in vitamins as
raw tomatoes. Canned Strawberries
were also found to equal raw straw
berries in Vitamin content" He de-
scribes how canned cabbage, peas,
spinach, apples and peaches were
shown to be rich in Vitamin G.
Just think what wonderful news
this is for all Of us in this country
where canning has been developed
to such q point of perfection that
we can buy canned almost any fruit
or vegetable that is grown.
Serve your family literally with
canned fruits for breakfast and for
dessert, and serve them literally
with canned vegetables and fruits
for luncheon and dinner. Canned
peaches, apricots, apples, pears, or
strawberries are delicious served
with cereals for breakfast and with
ice cream for dessert. There is
health in delicious canned fruits
and vegetables. Sweeten the vege-
tables to taste when preparing them
for serving. The Sugar Institute.

staff of judges a series of corn
starch puddings OF varying consist
encles The majority favored the
pudding which was jelly-like and
tender yet not quite heavy enough
to hold its shape for any length Of
time after being unmolded. Several
persons, however, preferred the
slightly stiffer pudding which,
though delicate in texture, nodded

For a vanilla cornstarch pudding
that can be served in herbet glasses

add a delicacy which is pleasing.
Measure two and one-half cupfuls

Boil Water
Have the water in the bottom of
the double-boiler boiling constantly

one egg slightly; pour the corn
starch mixture over it gradually,
stirring constantly. Never add the
egg to the hot mixture. as the

When the milk mixture and

TUBES AT ROOT

Average Life of Radio Part

BY JOHN T. HAWKINS
Times Radio Editor

Among the many complaints of
bad radio reHe2:iJn being turned
into Cnis department daily many are
Of the same general tone. It sums
up to the fact that the radio set
is not giving the service it did last
year, or six months ago. or words,
to that effect -
In almost every case of this KING
when investigated it is foun5 that,
the tubes in use in the set are the
ones that were supplied with the re-
ceiver, they have never been
changed. The best Of radio tubes
have life of only TOO to 1000 hours,
and this limit is exceeded three and
four, or more times before the radio
listener begins to suspect that new
tubes might help him
The radio in the ordinary family
is used on an ACREAGE of ten hours
a day. AT this rate after three
months have passed it is necessary
to get new tubes to have perfect
reception. Figured on an average
of five hours a day. which means
turning on the radio very seldom.
the tubes have lived their natural
life in six months time. The moral
is: Get q set of new tubes if your
present ones are six months old or
more, it will be revelation to you
in entertainment returns.
