of the L. S. Department of Ag-

balancing the wartime diet.
erybody is working under pres

meals is short or facilities are

thought and planning if you are
to get all the elements you need

Nutritionists caution all work

That might seem to be an I'M

people just don't take time to
eat breakfast, or they skip 1t
with the thought of SHINING a

say it takes a breakfast to keep
going at your best pace. Most
persons go without eating from
the evening meal till the follow

IL hours. Skipping breakfast
means extending the fast to II
or 10 hours. Nobody bubbles
over with energy after going
that long without food.
II you don't eat breakfast
where you live, a glass of milk
and fruit or tomato juice at
lunch counter will give you a
boost. A more substantial break

NEED PROTECTIVE FOOD
At lunchtime, avoid the temp

get. You can't afford to fill up
on starches and sweets and ne
glect protective foods. 1t is well
to remember milk and fruit as
often as possible. If you carry
a lunch to work, it doesn't have
to be just sandwiches. Raw
carrots, fresh or canned toma-
toes, cooked or canned fruit in
covered containers and hot or

Utica Launches
Scrap Drive
Formers Asked
to Aid Compoign

THE farm scrap drive is be-
ing held early this year, so that
farmers can have time TO scour
their farms thoroughly before
blowing and planting season be-
gins. Every farmer or farm own
cr is being asked to collect all
unusablc scrap metal from the
fence rows, bitches and barnlots
and place it near the road, so
that trucks may pick it up with
out delay The collection will be
made with volunteer trucks on
April Goth"
SO said Howard Crissman,
chairman OF the Utica Salvage
Committee. on Wednesday. The
War Production Board has ask
ed Michigan for a collection of
IS 600 tons of scrap metal during
the first six months period end
ing June so. and nearly all Of
this amount is TO come from the
farms, Mr. CrisSman continued.
This means that we will need
an average of 800 pounds per
farm 10 reach this goal.
The scrap collection will also
be made in the city of Utica on
the same date, Thursday, April
%, and, the residents will be So
licited personally from house to
house on Tuesday night by mem
bers of the Utica Rotary Club,
the sponsors. In the meantime
advertising is being mailed to
the farmers of the area which
comprises up to and including
Hayes road on the east, De-
quindre on the west, ColdWater
road on the north and the IL
Mile road on the south.
Twenty-Five trucks and six

nutritional value Of your diet.
If you eat all your meals out
as many do, especially in cities
and war work centerS-it is to
the advantage of your health tC
use your head and plan to get
balanced meal from the menu
offerings. 1t is a good idea to
include milk, fruits and vege-
tables regularly If enough Gus
toners ask for these items, and
other vitamin-rich foods, the
restaurant, cafeteria or lunch
cart will provide them.
Those who live in boarding
houses have a special problem,
of course. Boarding house meals
sometimes have a way of rum
ming TO too many sweet and
starchy foods. This indicates a
lack Of knowledge about good
nutrition or a tendency to stick
to a few standby" items. Those
who give particular attention to
their food needs, often can bring
about a better balanced diet by
taking it up with the manage
ment. Otherwise, it might be
wise to piece out your meals
with fruit and milk, and possibly
other missing items, outside your
boarding place.
THREE REASONS FOR FOOD
Nutritionists tell us we need
food for three general purposes
fuel for heat and activity,
material for building and re-
pairing the body, and certain
substances for regulating body
processes. Carbohydrates and
fats are used chiefly as fuel. Fuel
value Of food is measured IN
terms of calories. We need a
definite number Of calOries to
keep warm and to keep going.
If we eat too many calories the
excess is stored as fat.
Protein is an essential body
building aid repair material, and
is the one used in largest guam
titles for that purpose. Some
food materials are needed In cx-
tremely small amounts-fOr in
stance the amount Of iron need
ed daily is smaller than a pin
head, but it cannot be replaced
by any other food substance.
Here are some things the nu-
triton specialists recommend:
Use green, leafy vegetables
often - particularly spinach,
kale. chard. collards, mustard
green's, cabbage, broccoli, beet
or turnip tops. Save vitamins
and minerals in all vegetables
by not cooking longer, or In
more water. than necessary. Use
the cooking juices. Do not use
soda in cooking vegetables.
USE ENRICHED FLOUR
Stretch the family meat sup
ply by using dried beans and
peas as main dishes.
Use whole grained bread or
cereals, or enriched flour ana
bread. Count spaghetti, maca-
roni, grits and white rice as
cereals, not as vegetables.
Count salt pork, fatback and
bacon as fat. not as meat.
Use sweets in moderation TO
make the diet palatable, but not
enough to spoil the appetite.
Count very sweet desserts, mo-
lasses, sirups. honey, jellies,
Jams and candies as sweets.
Form a regular water-drink-
ing habit and drink plenty OF
water, especially in warm wea-
thcr. When perspiration is ex-
ccssivc. use an abundance OIL
water and extra salt.
