gorgeous than the autumn vegetables.
Such yellows, and such reda and
greens u the market displays now
that frost has come! The squashes
steal the show, but the rich old gold
of the pumpkins la not to be over
looked, nor the flashing red and green
of the peppers. There la yellow agalo
In the carrots, softer tones in the
rutabagas, and h brown coat covers
over the yellow of the sweet potato.
Then you come to a purple patch
"red' cabbage la plentiful now, along
with the new green cabbage heads.
Those colors mean something, too.
The yellows and greens especially,
and some of the reds, says the Bu
reau of Home Economics of the TJ. S,
Department of Agriculture. And this
Is why:
One of many discoveries about
foods In the last few years has to
do with the coloring. In the green
leaves and sterna of plants, In the
yellow roots, also in the yellow fruits,
la a yellow pigment called carotene.
Now It la discovered that carotene. In
the animal body, turns Into vitamin
A. When cows have good green pos
ture and good hay all winter, their
milk la rich In vitamin A. Whan
hens have plenty of green foods, the
yolks of their eggs are richer In vita
min A. So we get vitamin A both
ways, because we eat both vegetable
and animal foods.
When we eat green or yellow vege
tablesand certain red ones we get
carotene, which turns into vitamin
A, probably In the liver. When we
drink milk or eat eggs or butter or
liver, or salmon, we get vitamin A
Itself, made from the carotene In the
green food of the cow or the hen, the
calf or the pig or the lamb or the
fish, as the case may be.
And It la fortunate for us that we
can get It from more than one
source. Without vitamin A we would1
be In a very bad way Indeed with
Infections ol nose, throat, eyes, ean.
sinuses, and. In fact, ail the lining
of the various glands and internal
organs of the body. To put It in
scientific language, "the function of
vitamin A In the body la to maintain
the integrity of the epithelial tis
sues" and those tissues are lining.
As an extra protection for them we
give to the children and often to
ourselves, likewise, either cod liver or
halibut liver oil, whtcn are exceed
ingly rich In vitamin A that comes
apparently from carotene in the green
sea planta the fishes eat.
In green leaves, the yellow color of
the carotene seems lost In the green,
but It la there. So In the red pepper.
or the tomato, It seems lost In the
red. But It la there, as you know II
you have ever mixed paints, lu the
yellow squash, of course; the pump
kin, carrot, yellow turnip and sweet
potato, the yellow stands out for Itself.
The green and yollow vegetables
have other food values, of course,
They furnish other vitamins, and
several of the minerals we need. Thuy
are important also because they help
to keep the balance between the acid
and the alkaline foods we seat the
green and the yellow vegetables are
non-acid, or alkaline-forming foodb.
They also furnish bulk, which the di
gestive tract demands. But right now,
with winter coming on. It is very
well to remember that the vegetables
rich in carotene keep your linings In
good condition and help you to avotU
colds or other Infections that attack
those parta of the body in particular.
But now to go to the kitchen.
Whn you serve white potatoes and
greens, you are getting good returns
lor your money, because you have
in that combination all the vitamins,
especlslly vitamins A and B, and sev
eral mln-srla, particularly calcium and
iron. Not all you need of each for
the day, but a good start In that di
rection. When you serve aweet pota
toes and greens, you get the same
food values, but more of vitamin A
and a little leas Iron than you get In
the white potato combination. It Is
not economical to serve white
potatoes and sweet potatoea at the
same meal, because In those two you
get so many of the same kind of food
values. But you are not duplicating I
too much If you serve either kind of
potatoea with carrot or turnips.
Cook them in different ways, of
course, to look more inviting baked
potatoes and diced carrots or turnips,
say; or creamed potatoes with raw
carrot sticks.
Carrots are the best of all the yel
low vegetables for carotene and hence
vitamin A. bquakh comes next, then
pumpkin and yellow turnips.
Among the leafy vegetablea, the
greener they are the mora carotene.
New green cabbages are a better source
than the whiter heads. Collards are
good, and they are a standby in iho
south all winter. Turnip greens, too,
are hardy enough to grow wU Into
the winter.
The pepper family Is a good source
of carotene and also of vitamins B
and C. Or een peppers and red pep
pers are equally good.
ao what shall we have for a vitamin
A dinner? Stuffed peppeit (seasoned
rice or breadcrumb stulllng with grat
ed cheesei, creamrd potatoes, and
raw carrot sticks would be good and
also cheap. And you might add, 11
you cared to, pumpkin pie for des
sert. But that Is only one meal. For a
steady diet, at least one green or
yellow vegetable every day. say the
pedal lata, is nettled to provide you
with the carotene iieeensary to keep
up your supply of vitamin A.

IS DISAPPEARING
ST. LOUIS (UP) Tht old-fssh-
loned truant officer with hi, big
tic, terrifying children who played
hookey" from school, la disappear
ing fast.
He Is giving way to scientific so
cial workers, who attempt to deter
mine why children do not want to
go to school.
The rhsngc. according to William
L. Bodlne, director of attendance of
flclsla of the Chicago Board of Edu
cation, has been brought about prin
cipally by the National League ol
Compulsory education, which held Its
annual meeting here this year.
Dr. Bodlne. who founded the
league In 1011. said that modern
methods used by compulsory educa
tion qfflciais tried to reveal the
causes of truancy and delinquency
with a view towsrd correction.
Especially bitter was Bodlne toward
Juvenile court conviction of minors
"This court should be expanded to
a family court where they could
prosecute 'Ma' and 'Pa1 more and the
children less," he said.
Teachers who assign too much
homework also enme under Bodlne's
criticism of misdirected education.
