and squeeze the Juice n-om that end
piece for one feeding, then turn the
cut surface of the orange Into a
plate or saucer and set It In a cool
place until the baby's next feeding
time. Then cut off another small
piece of the orange, squeeze out of
It another spoonful or two of Juice,
as required, and again turn the cut
surface of the orange Into the plate
to keep for the next feeding and to
on.
Tomatoes, fresh or canned, may b
used for the baby's tomato Juloe.
Strain off his portion of the Juice
when you open the can. and keep it
closely covered In the coolest place
you have.
All this brings us back to the nu
tritionists' advice to mothers and
houMwlvee, repeated week after week
by the Bureau of Home Economics In
print and by radio and Intended to
apply to all the family: MAKE SUFE
FIRST OP THE PROTECTIVE POODS.
ESPECIALLY POR THE CHILDREN,
and then buy the other foods you
need. If that rule Is followed the baby
will pt his milk and his fruit juice,
the older cnlldr,n and the rest of the
family will get theirs, too.
In other words, the children should
have tomatoes or oranges or the Juice
every day. As soon as they can take
it, give them, every day, a green or
yellow vegetable and some other fruit
or vegetable besides. These are not all
the foods they need, of coiiw. But
they are the ones they ar most like
ly not to get unless somebody sees to

Important Vitamin C Which
Prevents Scurvy Most
Easily Insured by Regular-
Feeding of Juices

When a doctor sees, in a children's
hospital within four months' time.
17 babies seriously 111 with scurvy, he
knows that something is very wrong
in that community. Seventeen cases
of scurvy are bad enough in them
selves, but for each case that comes
to the hospital, there are sure to be
many other ailing babies outside,
with nobody knowing Just what Is
the matter with them.
This happened recently In one of
our big cities. It happened becauw
the babies had not had the right food.
Probably the same thing is happen
ing In other places where many peo
ple have t)een out of work for a long
time and their families have been on
short rations. It can happen, however,
where there Is plenty of all kinds of
food except vegetables and fruits. Or
where people do not choose to eat
enough vegetables and fruits. It ran
happen to babies that have plenty of
milk and cod-liver oil and cereal
but no orange or tomato Juice.
Vitamin C Needed
Scurvy is due to the lack of one
particular food substance vitamin
C. which we get chiefly from vege
tables and fruits. Adults who eat
plenty of vegetables and fruits do not
have scurvy- Nr do babies that have
orange Juice or tomato Juice every
day. But anybody, young or old. who
goes for a long time without such
foods, or with not enough of them,
will sooner or later show symptoms
of scurvy. It may be mild at first,
but gradually, as time goes on and
vitamin C foods are still lacking, the
disease becomes acute. -
So the baby's orange Juice, or to
mato Juice, Is by no means Just a
fad or new-fangled notion. It la true
our parents and grandparents, per
haps we ourselves, never had orange
juice when we were babies. Oranges
were too scarce. They came at Christ
mas time, for good children only, out
of Santa Claus pack. As for toma
toes, some people thought they were
poison! Nobody thought these foods
were necessary for babies then.
But times have changed especially
for the babies. The United States
Children's Bureau. In its directions
for infants' care, advises a regular
feeding of orange Juice or tomato
Juice for the baby every day, begin
ning when he is a month old. This In
addition to his milk and cod-liver
oil. It Is a safeguard against scurvy.
Mother's Milk Scarcer
But why do we iay this now, when
babies used to get along without any
orange or tomato Juice? Nutritionist
of the Bureau of Home Economics In
the U. S. Department of Agriculture
tell you why:
Babies that live on their mothers'
milk are not likely to have scurvy.
This Is true for two reasons: The
mother's milk contains vitamin C. if
the mother has plenty of vegetables
and fruits to eat, and the baby gets
the milk before any vitamin value
can be lost. But many, many babies
nowadays do not live entirely on their
mother's milk. And in times of un
employment and scarcity of money
or food, many mothers do not have
the vegetables and fruits they need
to make their milk rich In vitamin
C.
Bottle-fed babies and there are
many of them do not get much, if
any, vitamin O from the cow's milk
that Is in their bottles. Cow's milk
when fresh from the cow does con
tain vitamin C, provided the cow is
well-fed. but much of the vitamin C
Is lost before the milk can be deliv
ered to your door. Cow's milk Is usu
ally pasteurized for the baby's use,
in order to kill any harmful bacteria
It may contain bacteria which might
cause tuberculosis, or diphtheria, or
some other infectious disease. To pas
teurize milk, you heat It. This heat
ing destroys vitamin O.
Lost In Pasteurizing
For the bottle-fed baby, then, his
milk must be pasteurized to protect
him from infectious diseases, even
though this process destroys the vita
min C tn milk, for there are otner
foods that furnish vitamin C. Or-j
ange Juice and tomato Juice are the '
best of such foods because they are '
so rich in vitamin C and because the
baby can take them better than he
can take the vegetables and fruit his i
p&rents and the older children may '
use such vegetables as cabbage, j
green peppers, and greens of all kinds, j
and such fruits as apples, peaches. !
and berries. j
Por the baby, in fact, orange Juice i
and tomato juice are probably the '
most economical and convenient
sources of vitamin r as well as the
richest. The baby needs so little a '
teaspoon of strained orange Juice
twice a day. by the end of his first j
month, then 3 teaspoons, then a I
tablespoon twice a day by his third
month. Of tomato juice, you give
him about vice as much each time, i
It Is true that the babies' fruit :
Juices cost a little more than their
cereal, and more, in proportion, than
their milk. But thev do not cost
much at that, and few mothers
wruld fall to provio them somehow. ;
if only they realized how important
they are, Relief agencies, so far as
they can do so. try to make sure the
children of families on their lists get ',
foods rich in vitamin C But appar
enlv. to quote one doctor, some
mothers "think M the fruit Juices as
a nice thing fr the baby if they can
be readily afforded, but not as a real
necessity When the shoe pinches the
juices will be among the first things
to he drorred from the budget."
Don't Let Juice Stand
To provide oranee Juice for the
baby alone, you need 2 or 3 oranges
a wk. depending fn size and
juiciness Nvr squeeze the orange
and let the juice stand, however. It
