Key To Your
Vitamin Needs

Malnutrition is a subject that has
received a great deal of attention re-
Gently since the discovery of vitamins
or the vitamin theory has been ex-
pounded. 1t has been discovered that
while there may be sufficient guam
tity of food it is quite possible to be
undernourished with full stomach
three times day. The reason is the
absence of vitamins, according to the
vitamin theory and the other end of
the argument is the absence of min
eral salts necessary for the proper nu-
triticn of the body. Whichever it may
be vegetables furnish the needed fac
tor in proper nutrition. 4
The vitamins which are classified
as A, g., C and d, are contained in
milk and fresh vegetables, particularly
the leaf vegetables or those the leaves
Of which are food articles. 1t is also
known that the vitamin content and
value is greater when they are eaten
raw
The A vitamin is a promoter OF
growth and its absence is the frequent
cause of malnutrition, particularly in
children who are backward in growth
and subject to various ailments. Vege-
tables furnishing this element are
string beans, cabbages, carrots, corn,
Swiss chard, beet greens, lettuce,
green peas, spinach and tomatoes.
The B vitamin is important in that
its absence from the diet induces
stomach and intestinal troubles, neu-
ritis and other ailments. 1t is sup
piled by cooked vegetables as we'll as
raw, beans, beets, cooked cabbage, car
rots, cauliflower, raw onions, peas, po-
tatoes, in short, most of the cooked
root crops.
Vitamin c has considerable to do
with the temper. Its absence leads to
irritability and in extreme cases leads
to scurvy. Cabbage and the cooked
root crops also furnish this vitamin
The vitanlin d is a yeast growth.
Green and cooked vegetables if eat
Ell as a regular part Of the diet will
furnish the vitamins necessary for
good health and development. If the
vitarnin theory is not accepted they
furnish the mineral salts which are
equally essential and without which
the human machine cannot be kept in
repair and in efficient working order

Eat Onions!

Every one is seeking to reduce the
burden Of living costs during the pres.
cent crisis. Food is the largest item
in many domestic budgets. Forum.
ately for the consumer, money will buy
more strength and health in the form
of good food now than for many years
past.
At present, onions should be supplying
some portion of the depression diet
According to Donald COMM, of the
Ohio Agricultural Experiment Station
the 1882 crop of late onions represent
ed 20,500,000 bushels, or over 81 pei
cent above that of the previous year
The increase above the longtime av.
erage is also large and is reflected III
the exceedingly low retail prices. One
cent per pound will buy onions in neat
cpen-mesh bags at most stores today
There is still much of last years crop
in storage.
The value of onions in the diet is
high. The content of vitamins B and
c is good, and the much needed min
eral salts of calcium and iron are pres.
ent. Onions contain about / per cent
protein and 10 per cent carbohydrates
and yield about 225 calorics per pound
Onions are often permitted in the
dietary of invalids and are frequently
recommended or permitted in the diets
of very young children.
The low cost and high food value
together with other beneficial prop.
critics, should give the onion place in
the diet CT the average family

Cross Section Showing Pitted Surface
able to take care of himself, so a
baby plant which is well fed will de-
velop a vigor which enables il to. for
age for food more successively and to
reach the. maximum size for its
type. Grass plants which are we'll fed
when growth begins develop larger
roots which enable them better to en-
ddre the drouth and trials of the hot
weather. The size reached by estab-
lished perennials which receive ample
food supplies from the very beginning
of their seasons growth is noticeably
increased.
Plant food may be supplied to lawns

Spring thawing begins. AS the deep
frost leaves the soil assumes condi-
dition which has been described as
"Honeycombed"'. The surface is pit
ted, and plant food applied at this
stage viii immediately dissolve and
sink into the soil. The ground is soft,
so that the food elements are quickly
carried down to the roots of plants
to stimulate their early growth. Such
applications should not be made on
soil which is to be worked afterwards,
or soil in which crops are to be grown
from seed 1t is better in such cases
to delay plant food application until
near sowing time.

Plant Food Should
Be Applied Early

In applying plant food to establish
ed lawns and perennial borders, con-
ditions are encountered which differ
greatly from new paintings and which
permit much earlier action.
Plants which are full grown when
spring begins--in which class grass
plans are Included begin to grow

They are likely to make their best
growth in temperatures which are too
cold for gardeners to enjoy.
Early growth is always most impor-
tant because it determines to a con-
siderable extent the ultimate develop
ment of a plant. Just as a well-fed
infant will grow into sturdy man,
