Author of Sister Mary’t Kitchen -
In these days of stress the
health of the family is of para-
mount importance. The produc-
tion of military equipment must
continue without interruption—
all workers must be on their jobs.
Too many illnesses are caused by
diet deficiencies so it behooves
every homemaker to study and
learn all she can about foods and
their composition.
There are four definite food
substances that are essential for
an adequate diet—calories (pro-
tein, carbohydrates and fat),min-
• rals, vitamins and water. The
calories supply the energy and
do their shaiv along with min-
erals and water to build and re-
pair the body. Minerals, vitamins
and water keep the body in good
running order—-in good health.
Try to include in your daily
meals plenty of milk. A quart of
milk should be given to every
growing child and to every ex-
pectant mother and nursing
mother. Every other adult mem-
ber of the family should have a
pint of milk. This doesn’t mean
that it has to be used wholly as
a beverage. You can use it in
cooking, in cream soup, over
vi getables, in desserts and sauces.

Substitutes For
Sugar Are Tested
LLrBBOCK, April 17—Success-
ful substituion of saccharine and
inulin for granulated sugar is
being tested by advanced foods
and nutrition students in Texas
Tech’s division of home economics.
Laboratory experiments with rats
are being made to test the re-
sults of these two little used sub-
stitutes on the daily diet.
Inulin is a cellulose product
found in tubers of dahlias, chicory
and the Jerusalem artichoke.
Saccharine is a coal-tar crystal-
line substance several hundred)
times sweeter than can sugar.

every day of tomatoes,
grapefruit, green cao-
raw green Sftlatls.
There should be one or more
servings every day of leafy, green
or yellow vegetables besides two
or more servings of other vege-
tables and fruits. Potatoes come
under the “other” vegetables and
are a much more valuable fo
than they have been considered
for the past years. They are a
good source of vitamin C, furnish
a little iron and are an excellent
carrier for fat.
Use plenty of eggs—one a day
for every person if you can and
at least three or four per person
a week.
There should be one or more
servings every day of meat, pool
try or fish.
Plan at least two servings a
day of either whole wheat or en-
riched cereals and bread. Whole
grain cereals and breads play an
important part in low cost diets
because they are sources of sev-
eral valuable food substances.
Fats should be included in your
meals, too. Cream and butter fur-
nish vitamin A, so if you use a
margarine remember to make up
the deficiency.
When you have provided all
these foods you may add sweets.
If you write to the United
States department of agriculture

can Food Materials you can learn

LIBERTY SHIPS BEING flTTED OUT AT A BETHLEHEM YARD PREPARATORY TO SEA SERVICE. THE YARO IS PROOUCiNO A CONTINUOUS STREAM CP V CSSCUS OF This TYPE
Bethlehem ship production this year will represent the greatest
all-round shipbuilding output by any company in the history of the
country.
Speed, speed and more speed is the constant objective; and
always speed with quality, for a jerry-built ship is virtually
useless in the grim tasks of maritime war.
The first Liberty ship which recently discharged supplies at
a Red Sea port was built in a yard that was virtually non-
existent a year ago. A tanker was delivered in 100 days from
laying of keel. A battleship will be delivered 14 months ahead
of schedule.
Cargo ships are being built in less than one-half the time
required in the first World War. Comparable speeding up has
been achieved on other types of ships and the schedule is being
constantly stepped-up.
Expanding old yards, building new ones, tripling employ-
ment in a year’s time, training thousands of new men, putting
every effective facility to use, adopting pre-assembly and mass
production methods—all these spell tonnage and more tonnage,
a steadily-mounting output of ships from Bethlehem yards.
All hands are doing their utmost for Victory, working to
achieve the maximum for the U. S. Navy and the lb. S. Mari-
time Commission, so that the “bridge of ships” shall be main-
tained and steadily enlarged.
