WHAT FOODS MEAN TO YOU
Hello Homemakers! Is "nutrition"
just a vague idea in your mind?
Here's your chance to be "in the
know"-to learn the meaning of terms
being used nowadays and other things
.you will want to know about nutrition.
For everyone should understand why
. nourishment must be taken in the
Proper proportions to give us energy,.
to build and repair body tissues, to
protect us from infection and to regu-
late all body processes. Just think!
What you eat for breakfast, lunch and
dinner is changed into flesh and bones
and blood.
Strength and health can only come
to us from the food we eat - for food
is the body's only nourishment. Yes,
Homemakers! This health magic
comes straight from the kitchen. So
it's important to choose the right kinds
and right amounts of food for the
-family. We have all found out that
when our health is not good our work
suffers, we make more mistakes and

So there really is a butter shortagel
The figures recently released by the
Dominion Bureau of Statistics clear up
all those rumours about its being a
phoney shortage, due to. panic buying
and wicked whelesalers waiting for
the- price to rise, The cold facts are
that Canadians are eating more butter
-than they did last year, so that al
though production has been maintain-
ed at.the previous level, we have now
much less in storage than we had this
time last year,
That means that all of us have got
to eat less butter, if we are to avoid
the extremely cumbersome and expen-
sive alternative of rationing. Ration-
ing pf butter was started Monday,
December 21st, one half -pound of but-
ter per person per week,
This is not the nutritional disaster
yo,tv may suppose. The, fact is that
there are oilier and cheaper ways of
getting the two chief food essentials
supplied by butter. These essentials
are- fat 'and Vitamin A. A great many
people would he a lot better off if
they ate less fat, so that's no loss.
Those who need this high energy food
can get it by eating the fat part of
meats, and of course all meat contains
a certain amount of fat •througheut,
-Were butter our only source of Vita-
min A, a reduction in butter 'consump-
tion would be• really serious, for too
little of this important vitamin in our
resistance to infection - hence more:
coughs and colds - and in extreme
cases to a serious eye, disease,- :xer0p11--
thalinia, But butter is only a fair
source of A. Cheaper and better-
sources are the green leaf and yellow-
vegetables, spinach, broccoli, beet_
greens, parrots, sweet potatoes, squash- .
And you will be glad to know, Vita-
min A is not a temperamental -
and survives evori inexpert cooking -
very nicely.
Other excellent food, sources are-.
liver and cod-liver oil, These cannot'
be considered ,cheap substitutes for
butter if you eat liver occasionally and4
take cod-liver oil regularly, you're get-
ting more ;Vitamin. A than. even ex-
cessive use of butter could: supply,
One thing to remember - if your,
chief source of A is to he the green,
leaf and yellow vegetables,. don't use
mineral oil either medicinally, or as a..
salad dressing base, Carotene, _the:
form in which Vitamin A °Cetus in;
vegetables, is fat soluble. Mineral oil-
will dissolve carotene out pf yege-
tables eaten and since mineral oil it-
self is not assurnilated the carotene-
also will be lost, One last word --•,
children need more fat than adults..
if butter is scarce let the children-.
have most of it. A post card' request

SELECTING THE '
BREEDERS
One 'of the main requisites in poul-
try breeding, stock is freedom from
disease especially those which are
transmitted through the egg to the
chick, Pullorum disease is the only
one whose transmission in this, way is
definitely proved, but evidence is ac-
cumulating to indicate that the dis-
ease-complex, known as Leucosis may
also be passed from affected hens to
their offspring through the• food mat-
ter of the egg, Pullorum can be con-
trolled by blood testing the breeding
stock but unfortunately there is no
known method ,of accurately dis-
tinguiShing birds affected with Leuc-
osis, says Dr. S, S. Munro, Poultry
Disivion, Central Experimental Farm,
Ottawa. The best .insurance against
this disease is to secure chicks from
flocks which have experienced a low
death rate. If less than '10 per cent
of the layers die during the year there
can be no serious leucotic infection.
If the flock is showing a high death
rate try chicks from a 'flock which is
known has had a, low mortality.
If a farmer is hatching from his own
birds he should select as breeders
birds with bright, reddish-bay eyes,
Particularly all those showing a fad-

diet leads to night blindness, lessened authoritative Vitamin Chart
ing of the iris from• reddish-bay to
gray' .should be avoided. Birds of
good body weight and not too long in
the leg are preferred. Keock-kneed
and narrow breasted individuals are
best ignored. In yearling. or older
birds which has passed through a
moult and a prolonged rest, preference
should be given to those with bright
red heads and deep yellow legs. In
pullets which have been laying
throughout the winter the, better birds
will have faded leg colour.
Egg size is very decidedly influ-
enced by inheritance. Do not set eggs
which are too small or too large, be-
tween 24 and 26 ounces per dozen are
the best. Where trap-nest records are
available the value of ,individual rec-
ords should not be over-emphasized:
All the daughters from the highest
producing males providing they meas-
ure up physically, should be selected.
PartiPular attention to the physical.
caharteristics of the male should be•
paid and make sure he cofes from a-
flock; or better still a family, which
lays proper sized eggs. "

their "Victory Food Special" sugges-
