VARIED DIET is
RECOMMENDED

"A normal person should eat a
varied diet that supplies all the needed
food values in the right proportions. e
says Miss Bessie McClelland, extension
nutrition specialist at Montana State
college. Eating a great deal of one
food or emitting some other food en-
tirely may upset the dietary balance
seriously. Those who have conditions
or disease requiring special foods
should not attempt 10 regulate their
own diet. Such cases call for dag
nosis and a diet prescribed by a re-
putable physician"
Fear OF certain food combinations Is
common. Miss McClelland said, but
usually there Is no sound basis for
such fears. NutritioniSts say that no
two foods that are good for people
II eaten separately viii hurt them
when eaten together.
The fallacy about fish and milk
eaten together probably started be-
cause both Of these foods spoil readily
If not properly cared Tor. This Is es-
pecially true in summer. If each is
absolutely fresh and wholesome Sepa-
rately. they may be combined without
fear
The idea that white meats are better
for US than dark has no sound basis,
Miss McClelland says Some Of the
glandular organs are properly avoided
on a physicians advice by people with
certain diseases. Liver, a good source
OF iron. Is often given to anemic
patients.
Instead Of worrying about what
to eat, 1t is better to consider how
to get all the different foods needed
by the body" Miss McClelland said.
Balance meals Of meat and bread
and sweets with a generous supply
OF vegetables, fruits and milk" she
advises" and forget the fads and

Nearly a quarter Of a million
acres of land will be made prOduc-
tive Ia Montana due TO the present
activities Of the PWA, according TO
Acting State Director V. HI. Walsh
of the public works administration.
These lands viii be brought back
and made TO yield abundantly
through the use Of water now going
to waste in this great state, he
says.
The program of irrigation is only a
part of the work being done by PWA,
but it is the type Of work for which
this emergency organization is best
known. PWA plans to create not only
relief at the point of need, not only
added work for many at other points,
but also permanent relief for untold
thousands for years to come, says Mr.
Walsh.
The irrigation program of PWA in
Montana will create approximately
3 500 man years Of work at the site
Of it's projects. Tt also creates several
times this number Of man years work
away from the site In the manufac-
ture Of needed materials and equip
ment.
List Of Water Projects
The irrigation projects are widely
distributed, as shown by the follow
ing list:
Red Lodge and Rock creeks in Car
bon county, Willow creek in Gallatin-
Madison, Ruby river in Madison, North
Fork of Smith river in Meagher. Flint
creek in Granite, Park branch canal
in Park, Ackley lake in Judith Basin,
Big Dry creek in Garfield, Beaverhead
in Beaverhead, Jefferson diversion in
jefferson, Base Line drainage in yell
lowstone and Midway drainage in yell
loWstone.
Montana irrigation projects now
cost $3.868, lie, and in addition to
these seven more projects with an es-
timated cost of $3,645, asa have been
approved and are awaiting allotment.
In addition to irrigation, PWA has
financed In whole or part SIS, 243 755
in construction in Montana. The pro-
jects are widely distributed and varied
in nature.
School Program Next
Next to irrigation could be placed
the school program. Forty-three edu-
cational buildings are being financed |
by PWA. These range in cost from
SIS 900 to 100000 and will greatly inn |
prove the educational facilities Of the
state.
In addition to irrigation projects |
and educational buildings, the PWA /
includes in its program municipal /
buildings. water works, sewers, high 1
way improvements and hospitals. I
improvements have been
passed by all examining divisions and /
are now awaiting allotment. These,
If constructed, are estimated to cost
g, $50 ,879, and projects whose cost Is
IS estimated at $6,014, 787 are now under
study. The future of these projects
depends upon congress extending the
life Of PWA and giving another APP
for which to construct
these projects.
The personnel now in charge Of this

Add Charm
To Society
Two New Additions
Are Made to Dip
lomatic Set.
BY EMILY BURLINGTON.

ANAAA DSH oN.
TIME Joy of making friends
in Washington is always
mingled with a tinge of
sadness in the thought
that some day favorites will
leave. either to return to their
homes in far-away countries or
to go to new posts. But even
here the law of compensation is
in effect, for with the departure
OF every dear friend is the arrival
OF new foreign representatives
and their wives, who soon become
an integral part of Capital
society.
This year Washington will
have two new attractive host
esses to add gayety and charm
to the many parties during the
social season. These lovely addi-
tions to the feminine contingent
of the diplomatic corps are
Sonora de Pittagula and Sonora
de Pizarro, wives Of newly appointed
second secretaries of the Spanish
Embassy. Reports of Sonora de
Pittagula and Sonora de Pizarro have
been enthusiastic, slim. blond, lovely,
just like dolls" But it is not only for
their attractive appearances that they
are praised, but for their intelligence
and charm.
Sonora de Pizarro was born and
reared In Pennsylvania. Rumania.
She attended the University of Bu-
charest, where she specialized in the
study Of romantic philology, her
greatest interest. Sonora de Pizarro
speaks startling number of Ian
guages, including French, German,
italian, Hungarian. Rumanian, Span
ish and English. Although her COM
mand of the last language Is un-
usually flexible for one who has been
here for such a short time, she feels
that this Is her poorest medium of
expression.
It was while Sonora de Pizarro was
attending the University of Bucharest
that she met Senior Miguel Pisarro,
who was stationed there at the time.
When asked how long they have been
she replied, "Oh, three or four
years. long time, no?"
Cats are Sonora de Pizarro's other
love. Although she has no pets with
her at the present time, there are six
