Liberal quantities of milk and green:, vegetables are essential in the diet if our supply of calcium is' to be kept up to par, Milk is estimated to sup- ply about four-fifths of the calcium in_ the average diet. Whole milk cheese, carrots, peas, beans, celery, asparagus, cabbage and cauliflower all rank high in calcium content. Cereals are de,- ficient in calcium but high in phos- phorus. Milk, meat, eggs, cheese and. nuts furnish good supplies of phorus. Iron is necessary for the formation , of the red blood cells of the body and of hemiglobin, and to enable these cells, to carry oxygen to the -body tissues. • The daily adult reguirrnent of iron is 10 to 15 milligrams.

We hear so much these days about vitamins that all too often we arc prone to forget that minerals, too, are essential in our daily diet. Without these minerals, which are found in the foods we consume, our bones, teeth and tissues would become weak and diseased. • Of all the minerals, calcium and phosphorous are of the greatest prac- tical importance because they are needed in considerable quantities by the human body. Iron, too, is a vit- ally important mineral which is lack- ing in many diets. Besides building strong teeth and healthy bones, calcium prevents rick- ets in children and aids in coagulating the 'blood whenever the body sustains an injury. Phosphorus is an almost inseparable coinpanion of calcium as the latter cannot do its work efficient- ly without the help of this mineral. The human brain contains a large' amount of phorphorus which has a special affinity for the nervous sys- tem, It also is present in every body cell and helps, among other things, to YOUR EYES NEED ATTENTION '00,011,10#11! 44 4h 1 cup Q figs 1 cup hot water 1 teaspoon soda 1 cup sngar 1/2 cup shortenipg 2 eggs 2 cups flour 1/2 cup nuts if you like Put raisins and figs through food chopper, then pour hot *ater over them after dissolving the baking soda in it.
