EATING OUT One of every five meals Americans eat today is eaten outside the home. Two of every three meals eaten by school children are hot lunches prepared and served to them at school. Employee cafeterias were a rarity 50 years ago, but todav every new plant of major size has "in-plant feeding" facilities and in-feeding is increasing even in organizations located in the heart of big cities and surrounded Dy res taurants. Obviously, the old-time "institutional" food business has taken on new, exciting aspects. Here, from Daniel Kane, president of Kane-Miller Corp., one of the leading Eastern institutional food distributors, are little-known points about this big and growing field. Poriari What are the key reasons we are eating out more? Kami We are living longer. With a 33 per cent Increase projected in our over-65 population by 1980, nursing homes and all kinds OI institutions catering i inc ttscu win mushroom. Hospital insurance has meant that many more people are admitted to hospitals now than ever before. Hospitals not only have to feed their patients but also their staffs an average of I'i meals per day and many of them also operate snack bars, coffee shops, restaurants or even room service for visitors. Mora children ara not only eating mora maals pre pared ai school but alto more maals prepared at day camps springing up all over the country and at regular camps. In the East alone, there are 5.000 to (.000 camps, each of them feeding from 100 to 000 children three meals a day for 10 days. That's a tremendous amount of food. Working women have added significantly to the number of meals eaten away from home. And every time a union contract Is signed which allows an extra week's vacation or a raise In pay or more over time, it means more meals eaten away from home, when ever you take a trip anywhere by any means of transporta tion, it's more than likely that the trip will involve out-of-home meals. Porteri How big is the institutional food business now Kanei This market now constitutes at least $20 billion of th-- $80 billion consumers spend annually for food, or around 23 per cent. Within the next 40 years, I think we will catch up with and then pass the home-feeding field. We are fast reaching the point where we will spend 50 per cent of our lives in situations where we are eating institutionally or out oi me nome. Poriari Aside from the better restaurants, will inslitu tional food ever be as good as home-cooked food? Kanei Actually, one of the main reasons why children are now being fed hot meals at school for lunch is because the schools have dieticians and the meals can be well-balanced and nutritionally sound. Many institutions unfortunately do not have the best cooks, but the food which they buy Is In most cases better than that which the housewife would normally buy. In many cases it's of a quality which you would not find on your supermarket shelves. Porieri Prove that with an example. Kant! A typical example might be tuna fish a big institutional item. By far the best tuna fish is packed by the Japanese who fish off the same waters our packers use but who pack their tuna in a different way aboard ship, so that It is far Juicier and meatier than our brands. The average housewife doesn't know this and she has no chance to find out because she gets no exposure in her supermarket to Japanese tuna. Institutional food distributors are acquaint ed with suppliers all over the world. When we want the bcBt of something, we know exactly where to go lor It, Portari But don't institutions economize on food buying'! Kanei In many Institutions labor costs iar outweigh food costs so that the food budget Is not under any great pressure We nack different crudes for different purposes and dlf ferent needs. Because of close inspection practices, we can offer buyers an exact grade of product - - standard, choice or fancy and far more guarantee of quality than the housewife may think she has. Our buyers know precisely what they are buying. All too often, the housewife doesn't.

Re-Do and Save nothing did any good In some cases, ichthyosis is due largely to "a congenital hypertrophy (over-growth) of the outer horny layer of the skin," but even in ibis form of the disense. there is usually n luck of the oily glands in the skin, and sometimes lack of the sweut glands. Sev eral members of the family may be affected. In some cases the giving of thyroid substance may help Vitamin A is not likely lo help: a number of medical oils and "ointment bases" should be tried out. These cannot cure, but they may make the skin more comfort able.
