JAM FOR BRITAIN
Despite unfavourable weather .it:
is 'hoped that sufficient fruit will
be ready to convert into jam for the
annual •Canadian Red Cross t Women's,
Institute, Jam -for -Britain . project.
The food situation in • Britain• this'
year will 'be more difficult than at'
any time during the war, andjam
project is therefore more important
than ever. Children in the nurseries,
and servicemen in .hospitals find the
jam a source of great enjoyment,
and a: welcome addition to their
slim sugar ration.

$200. to •help . purchase factory-

Red Cross Nutrition News
Vegetables for Vitamins .
The family tree of the vegetable
kingdom with its many edible
branches, is a matter for 'the bio-
logist and far beyond the scope of
this column. Nevertheless, since
food is the topic, today's article will
briefly touch on one strain of plant
royalty commonly used as food.
If Mother Nature cou'd confer
titled honours on her subjects, the
vegetables, those deserving diet
mainstayse would stand, high on Her
honours list. Their . precious store of
minerals and vitamins give them
prominence as diet staples. The
root vegetables, though of seemingly
low estate, are celebrities among the
vegetables. Roots are the storage
cells of plants and have a high
starch content which makes them
good energy foods. Resides this, they
have a good mineral and vitamin
reserve and store well throughout the
winter months. .
Orange carrots, rosy beets, creamy
parsnips, sturdy potatoes and
turnips, the most familiar storage
roots lend themselves to a multitude
of tasty preparations: The easiest
way to season them ,plain -cooked is
to salt and pepper to taste, and a
little meat drippings or melted fat,
before . serving. The addition at the
last minute of a little milk on cooked
carrots;: turnips or onions appeals' to
some folks 'while others like a little.
vinegar or lemon juice for a pleasant-
ly sour note on carrots,. beets or
turnips.
And then there 'ere the sauces-,
savoury, creamy and nippy. They add
.a dash of flavour and an extra spot
of nutrition to any dinner setting,
and made with milk or cheese they
aptly suit the occasion on a low meat
day. Tender -sweet beets make a
colourful splash on the vegetable
platter, and eurely hit the .spot in a
smooth, tangy sauce: ' -
Harvard Beets
1 tbsp. cornstarch or 2 tbsp. flour,
2 to 4 tbsps. sugar, ei tsp. salt, ei
cup vinegar, Vs eup water, 2 tbsp.
fat 4 cup cooked beets, diced.
Mix cornstarch or flour, sugar and
salt. Add vinegar and water and boil
5 eninutes, stirring constantly. Add
the fat and beets, and let stand until
the sauce becomes red. Reheat if
necessary.

tion tray be directed to the Nutri-

number was 9,260. Most timber wol-
ves are caught in the northern dis-
tricts of Manitoba, British Columbia,
Saskatchewan, and ' Alberta,Several
hundreds come every year from the
Yukon and North West 'Territories
and ;a few from Quebec. The fur .is.
used for trimming coats and other
