NEW PROCESS KEEPS LARD John Holmes, president of Bwitt and Company, announced last week the discovery of what he dencribed as a "revolutionary development" in the processing of lard, * The development, the meat pack: . er president sald, involves the ad- dition of small quantities of a vég- . etable substance obtained from tro- pleal trees, making it possible to protect lard's natural advantages and at tho same time keeping it- fresh when exposed to alr without \ refvigeration. FRESH VEGETABLES Did you know that the tempt ing looking "heart" of a you:g, green cabbage is of lower {sod value than the outside leaves? That is one of the items of in formation handed on by the Ilealth League of Canada, in con- nection with the League's cam- paign to raise the standards of health and efficiency in Canada. Moreover, says the Health League of Canada, since some of the . value of cabbage,--vitamins and minerals--are lost in boiling, cabbage salad is more! nutritious than cooked cabbage. It is pointed out, too, that price has little to do with the food value of vegetables. Brussels sprouts may cost three times. as much as the humbler cabbage, but they are not one bit more nu- tritious. Canned vegetables, though they are put up in three grades: fancy, cholcé, and stand- ard, are of equal value whatever the grade. Inexpensive Items And here is a hint as to the cheapest way. of obtaining to- mato juice, without which lunch or dinner is not complete for a great many people: buy the low- est priced grade of canned to- matoes, says. the Health League of Canada, and strain off the Juice. The residue may be com- bined with other foods or used in soups. One other suggestion: don't use soda to prederve the color in cook- ing green vegetables. Not only is it unnecessary if the lid is left off the pot, but it destroys the valuable vitamin _C, says- the Health League. c x "Asphalt Lake" Traps Animals Prehistoric Fossils Ars Found Near Russian City, Preserved In Anclent Tar A prehistoric "asphalt lake," Tich in animal fossils, has been digcov- ered a few miles from the famous Bovlet oll city of Baku, writes a correspondent to 'the London Sun. day Observer.
