u. 5. Helps Farmers
To Dump Potato Crop
By the Asseeiotsd Press

The Agriculture Department Is
authorizing farmers to dump ell
low-grade and deteriorating pota-
toes stored under Government price
supporting loans.
The aim, the department said
Yesterday, is to help the farmers
get rid of a remaining 45,000,0 1000
hushel surplus from last years rec
ord crop.
The agency indicated at least TO-
10000 bushels will be lost through
dumping. 1t said it hoped to divert
the remaining 25,000, 900 bushel sur
plus into noncommercial uses-such
as the Federal-State school lunch
program, relief exports, livestock
feed and to manufacturing plants
for conversion into starch.
Growers will receive full compen-
sstion from the Government for the
dumped potatoes at rates in line
with 80 per cent of the parity price
of potatoes. The department is
required to support grower prices
at not less than these rates.
The 1916 crop provided a surplus
of about 100,000,000 bushels above
commercial demands. All bus 49,
100000 bushels Of this surplus was
disposed by January /. Some were
sold to alcohol plants for conversion
into whisky. Secretary Anderson
has told Congress that the depart
ment will lose about $50, ,000, 900 or
the entire surplus.

Since l have been asked by a

findings of DR.. Ruth M. Leverton,

list. ~
DR.. Leverton has been working
with pediatricians at two Lincoln
and Omaha children's institutions
in an attempt to find some method
OF checking anemia common to ha-
bies, and she has discovered that
the addition Of meat to the diets Of
babies at six weeks Of age is an
effective safeguard against anemia
Dr.. Leverton said results showed
that meat not only checked anemia
but actually improved the blood
condition. At the end Of eight
weeks, Is babies whose diets in.
cluded meat added to the formula
in the nursing bottles showed an
average gain of 1873 per cent in
hemoglobin content and a gain Of
22.2 per cent in red cell value.
- Meanwhile, Is other babies Of the
same age group and general condi-
ton, were kept on their customary
meatless formulas. During the test
period these babies showed an aver
age drop Of 1913 per cent in hemo.
globin and a gain Of 6.2 per cent in
red cell values. =
:. Nurses caring for the babies
reported that those. who had been
given meat were generally less
fussy and slept better at night
Or. Leverton said. ''The pediatri.
clans felt that the babies were in
better physical condition as a re-
suit OF the meat supplement-"

Few women spend the time in
planning breakfast that they give to
other meals. The only way to serve
a good breakfast j. of course, to
plan it in advance. 1t should be
appetizing and interesting, with
foods prepared carefully and served
appetizingly. There should be con-
trast in the texture, flavor and color
Of foods to avoid monotony.
Breakfast, too, can have the
glamour that other meals possess.
Bright cheerful dishes and linens
dispel early morning gloom. Flow
ers and other pretty centerpieces
make an attractive setting. The
breakfast table should be set away
from kitchen odors and confusion,
and the setting should be as CHEEKY
as possible. Above all. be cheerful,
yourself!
Use Variety in Fruits.
Fruits-in-season offer a good way
Of introducing variety to the break
fast. There will be berries, juicy
and bright-colored, fruit juices, and
then, of course, the fruit itself,
halves of grapefruit, sliced oranges,
luscious pears. peaches. etc.
Incidentally, right now there are
