For instance, did it ever occur to you that the farm is the greatest vitamin factory on earth? Yes, oddly enough for vitamins come to us from plants, animals and sunshine. Food grown on Canada's farms or baekyard garden supply us with vitamins in their natural form. Ripe fruits, vegetables, and grains bring vitamins together with other nourish- ment straight from plants to our. tables. -.There's no doubt that fruits would tempt the appetite by, their; enticing flavour and ---appearance Awn . •though• they-Js211elittlee4063' volue, but on top of their other vir- tues they contain vitamins, minerals and natth al sugar. Thus, when fresh fruits are abundant and at their best, we should eat there every day. It's easier on Use family cook ;and appreciate it if all correspondence and: advertising be in the office early.
