CERTO IS PECTIN EXTRACTED FROM FRUIT | Garden- Graph I Many small gardens do not have a suitable area for growing tomatoes, a -plant which requires full sun. One way to overcome this problem is to grow the tomatoes in boxes or tubs as though they were ornamental plants. In fact, tomatoes gro-wn in this man­ ner add a decorative note to the scene when placed on the sunniest side of the house or garage. Tomatoes in boxes or tubs can be placed on a ter­ race; with their yellow flowers and within one inch of the top with good garden loam. As illustrated in the Gar­ den-Graph, plant two strong young to­ mato plants in the box, the kind which can be expected to grow into specimen plants. If they prove to be vigorous growers, it may be necessary to tie them to stakes. XinnillfiiltliltiffllHflfflllHtlllHHIlltllllllHIHIIHIIllllllUBMr i Household ! Hints I By MRS.

In fact a preliminary estimate shows that five hundred and fifty mil­ lion additional pounds of potatoes were produced in Canada in 1940, than in 1939.

The Consumer Section, Marketing Service, Dominion Department of Ag­ riculture, asks homemakers to -make greater use of the Canadian potato in the daily meals, and suggests a tested recipes featuring potatoes.

They ate huge quantities of pork, corn meal and some game; they were, on the average smaller in stature and more frail than the people of today. The death rate among the young was very high. Those who survived ben- efitted from a vigorous life with lots of sunshine and fresh air. Besides they used unrefined sugars was made 'from vitamin-rich whole meal; theyr>had unconsciously, some little safeguards; for example they drank spruce beer, a popular drink containing lots of vitamin C. Until the latter half of the 19th century, raw fruits and vegetables were generally left for the cattle to eat and since cholera raged fiercely along the Ganges in India and since the Hindus lived largely on fruits and vegetables, some doctors told their pa­ tients that the best and safest foods were meat an<l potatoes.
