economical in production. It has
been estimated that the same
amount of protein as in meat can
be raised from soybeans at about
one-tenth the cost.
Other high protein foods include
white, navy and kidney beans; black
peas, peanuts and peanut butter.
Peanuts never have been taken very
seriously except at ball games may
be, but with the emphasis on their
decided food value and the indus
trial use for their oil, they have come
into extensive cultivation in the
South.
Nutritionists have been careful not
to put all of their eggs in one basket,
however.
While pointing out the food value
of vegetables, one expert explains:
&c. 'Ersatz' dishes of beans, peas,
lentils and the like are foods having
lower biologic value than meat it
self. They are sometimes referred
to as meat substitutes, and they
are useful, but one should make GER
tain that milk, eggs and cheese are
included in the menu to furnish bio
logic values similar to meat, chicken
and fish,"
To obtain a balance in diet for
necessary nutrition, another expert
steps to the head of the class with
the suggestion that milk, leafy green
or yellow vegetables, potatoes, cit
rus fruits, tomatoes, whole grain or
enriched cereals, meat or meat al
ternates and occasionally an egg be
included in the days meals.
Meats Also Have Vitamins.
This expert had in mind the fact
that besides protein, meats also pos
sess vitamins and minerals; so that
in finding protein substitutes, it is
also necessary to supply vitamin
supplements.
Vitamin B1 and vitanins B2 and
G are present in meat, chiefly in
pork. To make up for any losses,
whole wheat bread, enriched bread
or cereals and milk may be eaten
instead.
Some nutritionists believe that
The Ely miner., 1943-05-13
War Brings America knowledge of How
To Eat Properly; Once Lowly Vitamin
Now Important Item in Balanced Diet
and
By ouseUiues Meals Necessary Workers.

Diets of many industrial workers
appeared to be below the level OF
what is required for optimum nu-
trition-and all because foods are
not chosen wisely!
Nutritionists figure that the noon
meal must include approximately
one-third of the days requirements
of protein, minerals, vitamins and
calories for heavy workers.
Good breakfasts are essential and
between-meal lunches are helpful in
overcoming fatigue during the day.
Between-meal lunches of foods pro-
viding minerals and vitamins and
about one ounce of easily digested
carbohydrates are the most bene-
fetal.
If the housewife has received one,
she probably has received thou
sand suggestions on how to get the
most out of food these days. But
when these suggestions are consid-
cred from both nutritive as well as
economical viewpoints, it will be
The Ely miner., 1943-05-13

Americans have never known how
to shop for meat. One says that the
most nutritious parts of every car
cass are seldom chosen at all, but
go into making fertilizer or feed.
Blood, lungs, stomach, pancreas,
kidney, brain, sweetbreads and
hearts-these are among the items
which the housewife passed up with
untroubled conscience on her shop
ping tours.
One nutritionist remarked that the
meat packers who knew the pecu-
iarities of the people, put choice
tldbitS like those mentioned above
into their canned dog food. AS a
result, he says, much dog food was
superior in nutritive value to some
of the meat canned for human con-
sumption.
'There is one thing we shall do
well to remember" the nutritionist
declares, "and that is there is no
evidence to support the theory that
when we buy expensive cuts of meat
we are buying more or better pro-
tein than the cheaper cuts would
provide us.
Generally speaking, American
habits of choosing, buying, preparing
and serving meats have been waste
full of both food value and money.
Americans in the main have scorned
the animal organs and the cheaper
cuts of muscle meat, tasteful and
nutritious though these may be.
Many people habitually spurn fat
meats. On the other hand, we rush
to buy the cuts which include large
proportion of bone and gristle, which
represents waste"
Find Adequate Diets.
The National Research council in
recent report on nutrition asserted
that inadequate diets and malnutri-
ton in varying degrees occur fre-
quently in all parts of the country.
The Ely miner., 1943-05-13

considered that most of them have
something on the ball.
For instance:
It's the style to eat potato skins.
Baked potatoes or potatoes cooked
in their jackets have a lot of good
minerals just beneath the skin, SO
when they're thrown away we're not
getting the greatest nutritive value
for our money. And this brings up
the subject of eating the green's un-
der salads. Valuable minerals and
vitamins are stored there to be had
for the eating.
The sugar supply should go far
ther now because it's considered
good manners to stir tea and coffee
vigorously after adding sugar, so we
can get its full sweetening value.
This will be even more important
when iced tea days appear-if we
have the iced tea.
We used to eat bread and gravy
when we ate alone, or put aside our
Sunday" manners, but now it's
the style to eat gravy on hot bis
cults, mullins and bread. Every
homemaker is being asked to save
all drippings and to serve them as
gravy to extend the good meat flavor
and add nutritive value to the meal.
Everyone likes to eat around the
bone of juicy broiled lamb chop
or piece of fried chicken, and now
we're not only told that it's permis-
sable from the standpoint of man.
ners, but we're encouraged to follow
this procedure because it's the trend
in the style toward patriotic eating.
Every particle of meat is precious
these days.
Learn to Carve.
Not the very least of the sugges-
tions is one directed toward the head
man as well as the little woman.
Nowadays, if Papa does the carving
at the table, Papa is advised to
learn how to carve.
It seems there's more to carving
than merely wearing the badge of
authority; indeed, good carving
avoids waste, assures uniform slic-
ings Important to the preservation

Perfectly elementary in itself is
the fact that a sharp knife is essen
tial to good carver. And equally
elementary, good carver should
take enough interest in his tool to as
sure its care. Thus, knives should
not be let loose in a drawer where
other metal can dull or nick the
blade. A properly sharpened knife
can be kept keen for a long time by
dozen strokes with a steel before
use.
In carving any cut of meat, it is
desirable to understand the anatomy
of bone structure of the cut to be
carved and to remember that meat
should always be carved across the
grain. Steak, because it is tender
and the meat fibers are already reIa-
lively short. is an exception to the
rule.
