By Bureau of Home Economic,
U. 8. Department uf Agrlcultur
Tht nrlnclpftl difference between
Englishmen and Americans," Mid a
Right Honorable British tatman
who vas traveling in thie country,
"1m that Americana eat their dessert
at the beginning of meal and En
glishmen eat theirs last." He meant,
of course, our first-course melon or
grapefruit or grapes, or fruit cocktail,
and the English fruit dessert. Not
that -we do not hare fruit desserts,
but you do find fresh fruit, stewed
fruit, or the compote a far more com
mon dessert In other countries than
with us. Of course, If It comes to a
question of who consume the moat
fruit In the long run, we might get
the medal, because we do use so much
fruit at breakfast, and In cocktails
and salads at other meals, as well as
In desserts.
This applies, however, of a lavish
table. Fruit may not be so plentiful
In homes where somebody has to
count every penny that goes for food,
especially city homes which cannot
grow any fruits of their own. It Is
a good thing, then, and timely, says
the Bureau of Home Economics of the
TJ. 8. Department of Agriculture, to
look at our fruit prospects Just now.
For most of the country, the sum
mer fruits are gone, but cantaloupes
are still with us, and grapes are Just
arriving. It is fall apple time, too, but
this is a poor apple year, except In
the Far West. It Is a better-than-
average year for pears, however. And
bananas, at this writing, are cheaper
than usual. So there we have a fair
list of fall fruits.
Cantaloupes are good and also plen
tlful this year because there has been
so much sunshine and dry weather,
on which melons thrive and grow
sweet, if only the Tines have moisture
enough for their roots.
The home-grown melons should be
vine-ripened, therefore sweeter and
better than any others, if the tempta
tion to pick them green has not
proved too great for the melon grower,
Right there, by the way, Is a pointer
for us on choosing cantaloupes in
market. No good cantaloup, says
department .fruit specialist, has the
stem or any bit of stem left on It.
A ripe melon comes off the vine al
most lit a touch, leaving a smooth
place where the stem was attached.
If the stem Is still there, or any part
of it, or if you see evidences of Its
having been cut out or off, you may
know the cantaloup was picked too
soon. Also, a ripe cantaloup is almost
oert&ln to hare a yellowish ground
color under the network on Its outer
surface. You cannot depend on the
so-called test of pressing the stem
end with your fingers. A ripe melon
will yield to the pressure of course,
but so will one that was picked green
snd Is going "soft."
This is a good year for grapes.
though a poor one for apples. Grape
buds form in the spring, on wood that
grows during the spring, so the cold
weather that killed many apple buds
last winter did not hurt the grapes.
California and the West Coast pro
duce the European grapes, many for
wine, many for the table, end there
will be plenty of all kinds this year.
We eat fruit because we like it, of
course; but there are other reasons
for doing so, reasons both aesthetic
and physiological. Surely no food is
more beautiful or enticing than a
bowl of ripe fruit. But fruits have
certain nutritive values some fruits
more than others and they serve
other purposes In the diet. They have
a delicate fiber which gives a desir
able kind of bulk In the digestive
tract, and although they may seem
acid to the taste, they are, with a
few exceptions, alkaline in their re
action In the body. ,
And this fact Is important. Nor
mally the body is slightly alkaline,
and to keep it so calls for a balance
between the foods that have an al
kaline reaction and those that are
acld-fonnlnff. That la to say, bread
and cereals, meat, fish and eggs,
which are acld-formlng, should be
balanced by vegetables and fruits,
which are alkaline in their reactions
in the body.
Eat your fruits raw if you would
get their full food value, says the
Bureau of Home Economics and eat
plenty of them. The food values are
so diluted (fruits are more tnan nine
tenths water) that It takes a good
deal in fruit bulk to yield enough of
the minerals and vitamins they ron
tain, though the content oi sugar la
considerable. Cantaloupes, watermel
ons, grapes, bananas, and yellow
peaches are fair sources of vitamins
A, B. and C. In fact, you get vitamin
C in all fresh fruits. And you get a
fair amount of iron from grape aktns
which you may not eat fresh, but
which are crushed and squeezed for
grape juice, grape Jelly, grepe mar
malade, and so on. All told, the pro-
Miss Ruth Mayland of Chlcagc
holds ths mors or leu sacred night
blooming cnreuit in her hands and
ixplains the charm of this flower
that blooms but for one hour, one
night, each year. The roots of thi
sereus sometimes weigh as much
as 23 pounds and are supposed by
some native Mexicans to be a pan
icea for all pulmonary ailments
when mads Into medic.'ns. Its
blooming it the occasion of a
"fiesta," and ona was held lit ths
streets o the Mexican Village at
ths new World's Fair.
tectlve food values of the fruits are
an Important Item In a well-balanced
diet.
