So we’re faced with a myriad of manufactured orange beverages, many of them claiming to deliver the same taste and nutritional value as fresh-squeezed orange juice. To help us make an educated choice . among these products, Con­ sumer and Corporate Af­ fairs Canada has compiled some facts and figures. . The. most important nutrient in orange juice is Vitamin C. (or ascorbic acid). Health and Welfare Canada says the average Hope to tame bean Scientists hope to knock the wind out of eating beans. Canadian and U.S. researchers want to solve the embarrassing social problem of eliminating the intestinal gases that follow a feast of beans. “I think if we could reduce the flatulence, we could enhance the image of beans which have some social stigma attached to them,” Agriculture Canada plant breeder John Aylesworth said in a telephone interview from the Harrow research station. Per capita consumption of beans, an inexpensive source of protein, continues to decline in Canada, a situation which worries both nutritionists and farmers. “I think in some cases the flatulence probably detracts some people from eating beans,” said ^Charles Broadwell, manager of the Ontario Bean Producers’ Marketing Board in London. or air. / ’ ’ < • • . , ‘Not. .all ‘orange-juices provi.de the same amount of Vitamin C.*The‘ frozen 'Con­ centrates usually give you the most for yodr money’, • Orange flavor crystals do not contain’ orange juice, no will they make orange juice When you add water.

This type is often sold in bottles or cartons. Canned, unfrozen orange juice might have a “tinny” taste which is imparted by the can itself. It’s perfectly safe to drink, but many peo­ ple don’t like the taste. It’s also safe to keep canned juice in its can (in the refrigerator, of course), but keep it covered to protect the Vitamin C. Because it is a natural source of Vitamin C, any product which is 100 per cent orange juice is not required to list its Vitamin C content on the label. The actual mount of Vitamin C may vary from brand to brand and according to the time at which the oranges were processed. The main ingredient in orange drinks is water. These products may also contain some orange juice, orange flavor, sweeteners and other processing in­ gredients. If Vitamin C has been added, it is listed on the label. Whatever kind of orange juice you buy, always keep it refrigerated and covered to protect its Vitamin C.

Other organizations have their headquarters in the United States. There are five clubs in the area: Ex­ eter, Winchelsea, Huron Park, Centralia, and Dashwood. Area representative Sherrie Breen says that each group averages about 20 members. . Calorie Counters have their, h.ead- office in Hamilton and they now have • branches.coast to coast in Canada. ■ . ' You must see your doctor before you can join, and decide with your doctor how much weight you should lose, and how many calories you should have a day. Calorie Counters gives you a ‘book which tells how many calories in everything, and then you have to keep a list of everything that goes into yourmouth.and the number of calories. They recom­ mend that you follow Canada’s Food guide. A minimal fee is charged each week, and penalties are levied against those who gain weight, and don’t fill out a calorie sheet. TOPS (Take 0£f Pounds Sensibly) operates much like Calories Counters. They meet weekly and are weigh­ ed, paying penalties if .they gain weight. The different members take turns plan­ ning the meetings and hav­ ingdiscussion ideas. Incentives are important to TOPS members, says member Sharon Chappel. Contests are run with the one who loses the. most weight .winning prizes^ For those who get dowh to the weight they have keen striving for, there, is a KIPS' (Keep Off’Pounds Sensibly) club. There are also clubs with , special tips for teenagers, and a stork club for pregnant women. Counterweight also has a branch in Exeter. This THE AWAY =3 FURNITURE By MRS.

SAVE Needlepoint course offered Ife Are you interested in in­ creasing your knowledge of a craft you already know? Do you like to learn new crafts? If so, “Needlepoint for Beginners” is for you. This winter the Home Economics Branch, Ontario Ministry of Agriculture & Food, is offering a course to all people in Huron County on Needlepoint. There is something here for , everyone. For those who would like to learn to needlepoint the course offers guidance in colour harmony, selection of proper canvas sizes, yarns and needles. Step by step instructions are given for five popular and useful stitches which are worked on a sample. Once the sampler is completed members can go ahead with confidence to complete an item of their choice. For those who have done needlepoint before the course offers advance in­ struction on professionally blocking your finished pieces, designing your own patterns for needlepoint articles, as well as learning several new stitches. The course will take the form of a leadership workshop where each group (whether an organized group or informal gathering) will send at least one leader (two . is the ideal) to the workshop to learn the information and get the supplies. These people then return to their community and teach the course to the members. Upon completion of the course a Summary Day is held where all members get together to see what the other groups in the area have done during the project. A knowledgeable speaker is often present to expand on the subject being studied. In the course members will complete a sampler which teaches the five stitches. Then they ®an either design and stitch an article of their choice or they can purchase and stitch a stamped design on canvas or a kit. Leadership workshops will be held as follows: Wingham, Monday, February 12 and Thursday, February 15; Exeter, Tuesday, February 13 and Friday, February 16; Clinton, Monday, February 19 and Wednesday, February 21; Clinton, Saturday, February 10 and Saturday, February 17.
