An Apple Day

The fruit and vegetable outlook
is good. If Americans eat more We
getables and fruits, both fresh and
prOcessed, to make up for smaller
supplies of other foods, the nation
al diet will probably be improved
in two important vitamins, A and G.,
in which have been low in many
American families in the past
Apple and pear crops are good
and citrus fruits such as oranges,
grapefruit and lemons should be
in good supply. Bananas are rapid
ly approaching prewar supplies and
it is predicted that by next spring
monthly imports may even exceed
preWar rates.
There ought to be as much can
ned fruit available in 1948 as in al
with supplies of canned orange
juice and blended orange and grape
fruit juice probably even larger.
There also should be plenty of
quick-frOZen fruit.
Ample and reasonable will be the
dried fruits. Raisins and prunes,
which ordinarily make up about
fOur-fifths of our total dried fruit
pack, may even reach five-sixths

poultry. Prices of both turkey and
chicken are expected to average
higher in 1948. Small weight quick
frozen turkeys may be a good buy
later on in the year. In the next
months housewives will be urged TO
use fowl so that new cooks had bet
ter learn how to make old-fashioned
fare-fricasees, stews and pOt-pies.
The outlook for the egg a day
Americans have been eating for en-
joyment and good nutrition seems
fairly good from now to the spring
although the price of eggs will be
high. If consumers who have eaten
more than an egg a day during 1947
see fit to complain they need to re-
member that fewer eggs are the re-
suit OF the reduction of flocks es-
sential for grain saving and the
feeding of hungry peaple abroad.
Coed news for this nation of
milk-drinkers is that fluid milk will
probably be available for cOnsump-
ton in about the same quantity as
1t was during 1947. EvapOrated milk
will also be the same as for 1947,
with the possibility of more cheese
and butter Lovers of whipped
cream will be glad to know that
cream will probably be as avail
able as it is at present.
Edible fats and oils will be in
about the same supply as 1947 with
the exception of lard, which is ex-
pected to be lower. Gourmets will
once again be able to make their
special salads since supplies of OIL
i've oil from the Mediterranean coun-
tries will be the largest since 1941.
World fat supplies, however, are
still critically short and consumers
will continue to be asked to do their
bit in fat salvaging. This means to
save and refuse food fats, to salvage
meat trimmings and drippings and
to render, store and refuse them
whenever possible.

of the total. Figs and dates will also
be in ample supply. Dried apricots
may be slightly less than in 1947.
Commercial production of fresh
vegetables is expected to hold up
and campaigns for home gardens
will be pushed. Canned and quick
frozen vegetables are expected to
continue in good supply. Supplies
of both sweet and white potatoes
are now plentiful but the former
are expected to be below average
in later months and the latter may
be no more than adequate next
spring.

Nut cracking will be able to go on

WOMAN WINS
SUCCESS IN
SILVER
BY ADELAIDE KERR
APP Nawsfaafnras Writer

IT MAY astonish you to learn it,
hut nearly all the silverware used
by millions Of women daily is de-
signed by men. That is why Lillian
Helander is a standout. She battled
her way up in a profession that
cold shOuldered women, to become
the first woman staff designer en-
ployed by a major silverware COM
pany and, so far as her company
knows. the only one such today ex-
oept her own assistant.
You may have one Of the souven-
fr spoons she designed for the three
twentieth century world fairs-in
Chicago. San Francisco and New
York. During the war, when her
company was in war work, she de-
signed tools for machine gan parts
When / began work in another
company more than 20 years ago,
they all looked down on a woman, "
recalls friendly, gentle, blue-eyed
Miss Helander. 'The men told me
they didn't think such work was q
wOman's job because women would
not be able to understand the pro-
cess Of manufacture. There is MOTH
ing very complicated about it, buc
that is what they said. And when
ever ] came into a room, the men
hid their drawings But that's all
changed today in the company
where / am now"
Miss Helander has just returned
from a three months trip to Eu-
rope where she visited silver fac
tories in Stockholm, Copenhagen
and Oslo.
They are doing something new
in Norway-enameling silver hOl-
lOW-ware in cOlor-red, blue. green.
etc.-instead Of plating it." she re-
ported. "Fhe color is applied all
over the outside and the inside is
left silver They say they feel that
plated ware does not wear well
enough"
Miss Helander is the daughter of
Scandinavians who migrated to
America in their teens, met and
married here and settled in Provi-
dence, R. I. Her father, Axel Hell
ander. tool engineer, served for
years as a member of the local
school board. Miss Helander made
up her mind to become an artist
when she was still a little girl. and
