Doughnut facts and fancies

Although the doughnut has Uh ten around in this country since the Dutch brought it to New Amsterdam, nw« modern Amen cans don’t know anything like the whole story on this tasty treat Doughnuts were originally called oily cakes or “olykoeks” in Dutch. In some parts of the country, they were tossed into the air for children to catch on the day before Lent: “Fat Tues day," which, in French, is “Mardi Gras." One thing many people don’t realize is that an aver-age-sized, plain doughnut has only 135 calories, fewer than in a cup of whole milk. A doughnut also contains 2 grams of protein. 40 units of vitamin A. 23 milligrams of calcium and a number of other nutrients, including iron, thiamine, riboflavin and niacin. On the whole, however, it’s probably the taste that causes a number of people to spend as much as. $5 a week on doughnuts—and a number of others to spend hours trying to make them at home

the third quarter was 814,046,000 or 75 cents per share, compared to 812,681,000, or 68 celts per share for the same quarter a year earlier In reporting the results the company noted that the increased sales were a result of higher activity in all major product areas The increased earnings reflect this sales growth and improved productivity. The gains in sales were gratifying, but not expected to be indicative of full year gains. The outlook for the company continues to be favorable A quartly dividend of 19 cents per share was declared by the board of directors, payable on December 2 to stockholders of record on November 14.

Fortunately, it’s now possible to have great home made doughnuts, thanks to an inspired idea and an innovative material. The idea occurred to an inventor at a major housewares company, Dazey, working on a doughnut maker that produces real doughnuts, not just doughnut-shaped cupcakes The basic batter is the same but oil makes all the difference The inventor drilled a few holes in the cover of the machine for measured application of oil from the top—and that did the trick The material used was chosen for its high degree of thermal and electric insulation, safety, attractive appearance and low cost A tough plastic for appliance products, it’s called GEN AL. With this easily-cleaned material helping you to make doughnuts easily, you can have not only the satis; faction of creating your own confections, you can have them for about 4 cenU apiece!

ROAD IMPROVEMENTS equal safe travel. The Road Information Program, a Wash-ington-based organization, says accidents decrease 53% after bridge-widening or replacement, and 42% with and shoulder upgrading. Amplifying this, the Protect America’s Roads (PAR) campaign calls for accelerated bridge-building and repairing. PAR notes a “safety gap” (bridges are deteriorating 50% faster than they are being built), and offers a free Highway Fact 3ook. Write: PAR, 1776 Massachusetts Ave,, NW, Washington, DC 20036. 8 8 8 WARNING: “The future of American agriculture is at stake,” says a top agri-business leader. Referring to pending legislation to break up the U.S. oil industry, Washington consultant, Donald Lerch, explains that petroleum divestiture “would have a devastating effect on farm fuel prices and availability, and would adversely influence world trade balance."

The difference between trees

If you’re like most people, you probably don’t know much about the difference between types of trees: deciduous and evergreens, hardwoods and softwoods. The trees most people call “evergreens”—and lumbermen call “softwoods”—have leaves like needles or scales. The trees most people call “deciduous” —and lumbermen call “hardwoods”—have broad flat leaves. The terms are not always accurate, but they do reflect profound and basic differences between the two great groups of trees. The seeds of broad-leaved trees are encased in a protective body, such as a fruit or nut. This puts them in a large group of plants called '’an giosperms,” meaning “vessel seeds," which also includes most flowers. The seeds of narrow-leaved trees are carried in cones. These trees are called “coniferous,” meaning “cone bearers.” Their seeds are at the bases of the scales of these cones and fall out when the cones are open. This makes them “gymnosperms," which means “naked seeds. ”

DECIDUOUS TREES lose their leaves in winter evergreen trees do not. But their other differ ences go deeper than many people realize

Broad-leaved trees require a great deal of water, so in winter, when moisture is frozen, they shed their leaves and seal themselves in. The name “deciduous” comes from the Latin word meaning “to fall.” Narrow leaves are tough and waterproof, so they can live through the winter. The wood of broad-leaved trees has special tubes that carry sap. The wood of narrow-leaved trees generally has simple cell struc-

ture. In many cases, this wood is softer and lighter than in broad-leaved trees. The growth pattern of broad-leaved trees is complex. The trunk grows straight and then splits. Branches are a further splitting up of the trunk. The growth of a narrow-leaved tree is simple and generally symmetrical. The trunk forms a relatively straight stem with branches coming out roughly at right angles.
