P2TGE EIGHT BEDFORD MATT TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, FRID'AY, NOVEMBER 25, 1932. Balanced Winter Diet For Health in Spring (By the Bureau of Home Economic!, V. S. Bureau of Agriculture. Our diet In winter has much to do with our health In the spring. The "tired feeling" that cornea with the first warm daya may have nothing to do with the weather, but Instead may be caused by a lack of the right variety of fooda In winter. How Is the time to take atock of winter food prospect. Lack of the necessary variety In diet Is more likely In winter because some of the important "protective" foods are then out of season In many psrts of the country, and therefore are more expensive. But some way must be found of supplying, if not those foods, then their equivalent In food value, all the year round and at all levels of cost. This Is the taak cut out for the housewife, and It Is not simple If food money Is scarce, says the Bureau of Home Economics of the V. B. department of agricul ture. Nutritionist In the Bureau of Home Economics have worked out weekly food budgets fee families of different alee and make-up, at vari ous levels of coat. The specialists know that each person In the family must have approximately so many calorie of body fuel each day, ac cording to age, sex and degree of aotlvlty. They know that the body must have certain food substances to build or repair Its Wood, bone and muscle. They know that certain "protective" substances regulate the body and help to build resistance to disease. When their calculations are complete and specialists are able to suggest a weekly marketing list which will Include common articles of food that contain the necessary variety and proportions of the required food sub stances, 1. e., carbohydrates, proteins, fats, minerals and vitamins. This market list will furnish a balanced diet, Including fuel foods, building foods and protective foods. It Is the protective foods, particu larly vegetables and fruits, that are likely to appear on the table too sel dom In winter. Oreen, leafy vege tables, with their vitamins, their cal cium, Iron and other mineral salts, are just as necessary out of season as In summer when the gardens are growing, but out-of -season foods as a rule cost more. One of the cheap est of all vegetables, however, Is cab bage, which Is always stored for win ter use, and comes at the top of the list for protective values. In mild ellmates, tumlp tops and oollards also can be available most of the year, and spinach Is cheap In some localities. Potatoes and sweet potatoes are high In protective value, Irish pota toes for vitamin O, and sweet pota toes for vitamins A and O. Turnips and carrots also are protective foods, yellow turnips and carrots being rich especially In vitamin A. Dried beans and peas are Important tor their pro tein as well as for their minerals and vitamins, although they do not con tain the "complete" protein of milk, meat and eggs. Tomatoes, canned or freaft, are o high in vitamin content Writ they rank with cabbage and other green leaves as protective foods; and noth ing, by the way, Is easier to serve than tomato juice as a cocktail, and In the large cans now on the market, the Juice ooste little more than can Bed tomatoes. Although classed as a vegetable, tomatoes are really fruit, and may be used for the same pur poses wherever fruits are lacking. The vitamin, value of tomatoes Is about the same a that , of oranges and grapefruit. The citrus fruits oranges, tanger ines, grapefruit, lemons are rich sources of vitamins. Dried fruits, nl . though they have lost much of their vitamin content, are still good sources of minerals. Raisins, prunes, dried apricots especially are Important for their iron. Among the oheaper can ned fruits, peaches and pineapple re tain much of the food value of the fresh fruit. ' In short, the bureau's advice Is this: Do not fall to eat vegetables and fruit as regularly In winter as in summer. The more limited the family puree, the more uneconom ical It Is to spend that precious food money for a one-sided diet, too heavy with breads, cereals, fats and sweets, and lacking In vegetables and fruits.

RECIPES Roast Stuffed Pork Shoulder. Have the butcher skin a trimmed, fresh, plcnlo shoulder of medium to large size and remove the bones. Wipe the meat with a damp cloth. Lay the boned shoulder, fat side down, and carefully cut a few gashes In the parts where the meat Is thick est so that it will hold more stuff ing. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. File In some of the hot stuffing, begin to sew the edges of the shoul der together to form a pocket, and gradually work In the rest of the stuffing, not packing It, but putting in lightly as much aj the shoulder will hold. The recipe for stuffing makes the right quantity for a three or four-pound shoulder; for a larger shoulder make the stuffing on the oasis of three cups of bread crumbs and Increase the other Ingredients proportionately. Rub the outside of the stuffed shoulder with salt, pep per and flour. Place the roast on a rack In an open pan without water. Sear the meat for 30 minutes, or un til lightly browned lu a hot oven (800 to 325 deg. P.), and continue roasting at this temperature until the meat Is tender.

VAMEAND CAUTION NEEDED An Influenza epidemic spreading throughout the valley was reported today by Dr. 0. 1. Drummond, oounty physician, who Issued a cell for cau tion on the part of, all persons suf fering from the malady. Most of the people In this county afflicted, and about 60 per cent of them are hav ing or have had the influenza, he stated, are 111 .about four or five days. It la Imperative that they re main In bed and take very good care to avoid future complications. So far most of the people suffering with the epidemic, are getting along sat isfactorily.' The greatest number of Illnesses are found among the un employed, he stated, and are many times the result of undernourish ment. In a pamphlet Issued by the state board of health, a warning regard ing this epidemic la sounded. "In fluenza Is a highly communicable dis ease," It states. "It cornea on sud denly witti a fever lasting three days. There is a feeling of great depres sion and a marked lowering of phy sical vigor. Bronchitis and pneumo nia may rapidly follow, especially when the victim attempts to return to his work too early. Failure to give In to so short an Illness and the natural tendency of the vigorous male to "fight It off" when Indis posed undoubtedly accounts, for the fact that, while females are attacked, the death rate Is usually higher among males. The most simple complication is pneumonia. Simple uncomplicated cases of influenza do not die. Influenza deaths In Oregon, 1933, to 1931, were as follows: Year .
