RATI BY FOODJEXPERT: Standby For Vitamin C i. Respected By Scientist: As Highly Nutritious Nothing Lost In Canning. The Orca D ALES FO RUN CAR5 YEARS New Seaplanes For Atlantic Flights To Consume 200 Gallons Of Fuel An Hour Have Four Big Engines U i OM E te LEADERS CBt Bnresn of Rome Economic!) WASHINGTON, r. O. fSpl) To matoea certainly have come Int. their own. The vegetable, once regarded i. poisonous, today la a favorite o, tables of rich and poor alike, am respected by scientists aa a hlghl: nutrltloua rood. Tola year'a prospects are or a to tal crop a tittle larger than lau year'a, according to the bureaus lat est, report. From Utah, Colorado, Waahlngon, Oregon, Michigan, WIs conaln, Arkansas, Missouri, New Jer aey, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, Ten nessee and New York come laconic wires saying "conditions good." But I from Ohio the significant report Is i "excessive rains,' and from Indiana and Virginia "excellent in some sec i tlons, poor In others." Nevertheless no one has the temer ity to forecast what the price of these same tomatoes will be when they come to market. Prices Fluctuate Tomato prices are as erratic as the proverbial March winds, accord- ' tng to W. A. Sherman, bureau 01 agricultural economics. And for good reason. Fey other vegetables are so at tbe morcy of the elements. Comes 1 a row of hot, dry days and tomatoes develop bad sun scalds, with an ac- ' companylng drop In quality and : price. Bring on some heavy rains and ; the result may be big craoka In the j tomatoes and prices plummeting j downward. Bargain hunting shoppers would do well to consider more than price In their tomato buying. For Instance. ' one market may be advertising Its tomatoes 35 cents a peck cheaper 1 than another marketing ccntar a block away. But the spread In price may be fully Justified. There may ' be more waste in the cheaper basket, the finish on the tomatoea may be Inferior, the flavor poor. Maybe they are cracked and have to be used at once to prevent spoilage. Of course, the poorer quality basket may be quite aa usable aa the more expensive one. It all depends upon what dis position the buyer wants to make of the tomatoes, la she going to can them aa tomato Juice? Then the re quired trimming may not be great enough to oanoel the price differ ence and the oheaper basket may actually be the saving it appears. Tomatoea march hand In hand With the citrus frulta through every diet plan worked out by nutrition ists for families of every Income i level. These two foods are the good old vitamin O stand-bys the bul wark of a good diet, aa far as this vitamin la concerned. flare Vitamin A Too But don't get the Idea from this that tomatoes and the iltrua fruits r equally valuable vitamin C sources, the nutritionist will warn. They are not ordinarily oqual. wolght for weight. Juice from red ripe to matoes, on the average, haa about half aa much of this valuable nut rient as doea most fresh orange or grapefruit Juice. But even so, tomato Juice may prove the cheapor drink, for prices often run less than half that of the cltrua fruit Juices, es pecially when tomatoes are In season locally.- Then, too, tomatoes hsve a good supply of vitamin A, which la lacking In the cltrua frulta. Just supposing a person were do pending almost entirely on tomatoes or tomato Juice tor his day's quota of vitamin C, then how much should he get a day? Nutritionist hesitate to answer that one specifically. Tomatoea make one of the most valuable of our sources of vitamin C. these scient ists will say cautiously, but Tomatoes (as well as citrus fruits) differ In vitamin C value depending on variety, on whether they are cooked or raw and If cooked how, whether they have been held open to the air for some time after being allced or after tlie can la opened. To be specific: some tomato var ieties develop more than three times aa much vitamin C aa do others. And variations within a given var iety are also great. Oreen tomatoea have almost at much of this nutrient aa do ripe onea. And those picked green and ripened off the vine by the commercial ethyelene treatment develop practically aa much as do vlne-rlpened ones. Ripe tomatoes stored as long as 30 days lose prac tically no vitamin c so long aa they are firm and free from decay. One a Day Adequate In spite of all these variables. It can be said that a medium sited freeh tomato. If It haa an average amount of vitamin O, ahould supply a person with hia dey'a need of this vitamin. Thafa counting as medium a alee of which It would take about tour tomatoea to make a pound. Tnerc'a aomc vllanun C loss In canning tomatoes whole or as Juice, but not enough to worry about. To mato Juice made from ripe whole fruit contains practically aa much vitamin O aa the tomatoea from which It la made. And home-made tomato Juice la quite as valuable as the commercial product. Once fanned, tomatoea and tomato Juice ahow no appreciable vitamin C loaa during atorage, even when storage la at room temperature for several months. And reheating upon opening doesn't much affect the nutritive value either. Therefore when prlrea of the fresh fruit warrant It. canning tomato brings very satisfactory results. A -.id diatetloally It Is advisable to put moat of the tomato supply "atratght" or In Juice form, rather thro a pickles or con sens.

TELEPHONE 386 117 SO, CENTRAL By Devon Francis (AP Aviation Editor) SEATTLE, wash. (AP) when tbe world's biggest airplanes start aron tng across the Atlantic next year, they will be powered with motors gulping enough gasoline In a single crossing to su; ply the average mo torist for five years. Only with the aid of such steal .titans will airplanes of even tba most advanced design make good the conquest of the sea In the modern mauner. Rated at 1,500 horsepower each, four of these great motors will be fitted Into the leading edge of the alrplaae wing. Collectively, they wilt burn 190 to 300 gallons of gasoline sn hour. - ! Conceived Before War The engines for the fcwo-doeVeeJ Boeing flying boat, being built hers, were first conceived In the era of the Titanic, the steamship that could not sink but did. europesn engln eers actually built grsndfathers of today's two-row radial. It was not until after the World war, however, that the two-row radial was manufactured commer daily. Today, the culmination of a quarter century of engineering la a power plant ahaped like a atar fish and developing one horse-power for each one and one quarter pounds of weight. Unlike automobile englnea which are "In line" or v-ahaped, the red lal engine for aircraft, haa cylinders which spread out from the crankceae like the spokes of a wheel. Piston rods are attached to a sleeve sheath ing a elngle main bearing. Progres siva explosions push the bearing around the curls It describes In put ting the airplane propellor In mo tion. Ahead of Times To create a twin-row radial engine, aeronautical engineers, In effect, welded two motors together, one be hind the other. . Xt wss not thst simple, of course, and when they tried It out several years ago, they discovered the larger of their twin-row radlals were too many Jumps shead of the airplane. Alrplanea did not need that much power then. Today motor factories are produc ing radial englnea of tremendous power for commercial aircraft, and the armed services are doing exper imental work on a.OOO-horsepower motors. Vibration Reduced -Today's twin-row power plsnt con sists of 14 cylinders, 7 In each row. For beat performance, propellers are geared down to travel only M to 71 percent aa faat as the motors. With these new motors, tba cabin vibration fait by the passengers on a transport plana la reduced meas urably, and because the motors run mors smoothly they have longer Uvea. K knotty problem In building big transport planaa is "drag," the re duction In speed caused by promot ing surfaces. In engineering the twin-row. manufacturers were sbts to reduce the frontal ares of ths motor am therefore the drag, from 30 to 36 parcent. f- SALEM (TTP) Several thousand autos from II to 34 years old still clutter up the highways of Oregon, records of the secretary of stats's of fice reveal.
