EAT SOME ROOT VEGETABLES raw and some cooked, the home economists advise, For .a relish, serve spring onions, young turnips eaten with a little salt. Your imagination will many salad combinations, but here are a ‘few suggestions: Shredded raw carrots with sliced cabbage or diced apple, shredded carrots and | cottage cheese balls and diced raw | turnips, chopped green pepper and cold cooked potato. Raw vegetables make an excellent: | sandwich filling, too. Try shredded raw carrot with chopped nuts or raisins mixed with table fat.

Some Like 'Em Hot
WHEN YOU COOK root vegetables, make the most of minerals, vitamins and flavor by starting the vegetables in boiling salted water— about one teaspoon of salt to a quart of water—and if the roots are young and tender, use only enough water to prevent sticking to the pan. For older roots, have enough water to cover.
Cook only until they are tender. They'll taste good and do you more good if you don’t overcook, And, of course, you won't throw away the cooking water because it has vitamins and minerals that have dissolved during the cooking. Serve it right away in soup, gravy or vegetable cocktail. Or make a sauce for, the vegetable, using the cooking water and those meat drippings or poultry fat you have beeh putting by to use. with patriotic thrift. Speaking of thrift, here's a beet soup something like Russian borsch that uses up leftovers. Add finely chopped cooked beets to meat broth, along with chopped cooked onion, carrot or cabbage. Season with herbs and serve hot. Try topping with sour cream if you have it.

Chamberlain, diveetor of the medical division of Camp White, obtained the co-operation of military authorities for carrying out his idea of having an efficient maternity ward for the station hospital. He announced that one primary reason for doing this was to relieve the strain placed on the medical and nursing facilities of the local hospitals by the war,

Elevator service is at hand for the ‘patients, and trips to the hospital will be taken care of by the American Red Cross motor corps, which is composed of local women. The army’ air base at DavisMonthan field, Tucson, Ariz., has an obstetrician and pediatrician to supervise and care for the mothers and ‘babies of the air base soldiers. Recent statistics from the field report more than 150 expectant mothers receive prenatal care from the air base maternity specialist each month and approximately 100 mothers and children receive pediatric treatment from the medical staff,
Birth Rate Low
Transient nature of the military personnel makes the actual birth rate for the air base lower than the prenatal and pediatric cases, and all of this work is in addition to the priority duties of the army doctor —to safeguard the health of the soldiers. Many other army camps, posts and stations have made public in their immediate areas the details of the maternity and infant care now available for the wives of enlisted men below the first three grades by the children’s bureau, labor department.
