She told of the great death rate among little children. The natives keep cattle only for working in the fields and never milk the cows, so that the little children lack the body building milk. The natives bury great jars in the ground and fill then with turnips, cabbages and red peppers, as we would make sauer-kraut, after washing these in the ocean, there is sufficient salt in them to keep them, and the poor families live on this raw food, nutritious and full of vitamines all m winter.
