Fruit and Its Effect on the War 



By W. F. Gwin, of Fruit Growers' Agency 



THE exclamation of the food editor 

 of an important newspaper after 

 reading an article recently issued by 

 the Fruit Growers' Agency which dis- 

 cussed the food value of the apple was: 

 "Who would have thought that of the 

 lowly apple !" One might wonder why 

 a food editor should have confessed to 

 ignorance in so important a food as 

 the apple, but there are further won- 

 ders "coming up" on the apple, for here 

 now comes a great and serious authori- 

 ty warning the military authorities of 

 Great Britain that her soldiers must 

 have apples for proper "nerve nutri- 

 tion" and health. The authority in 

 question is Dr. Josiah Oldfield, Senior 

 Medical Ollicer to the Lady Margaret's 

 Fruitarian Hospital of England, and his 

 essay is "Fruit and Its Effect on the 

 War," and is as follows: 



"In the early weeks of the war I gave 

 an interview to one of the London 

 dailies, and ventured to prophesy that 

 the end of the contest would be influ- 

 enced largely by dietary problems, anil 

 in these problems I did not consider 

 that the question of protein and scale 

 calorific values for muscular substance 

 would he ill so much importance as 

 those of foods which supply nerve nu- 

 trition, i. e. fats and salines. It is very 

 difficult to deprive any besieged coun- 

 try—or even any besieged city — of all 

 sources of muscular nourishment so 

 long as any other cellulose remains to 



be transformed by chemical agencies 

 into a more digestible form of carbo- 

 hydrate. The difficulty for Germany as 

 a bleaguered country was therefore 

 not really either meat, or cereals, or 

 potatoes, but fats and fruits and salads. 



The joining up of Turkey threw my 

 prophesy out of gear as to time, because 

 it opened up the great stores of oil and 

 figs and other fruits of Asia Minor. 

 This source is slowly failing, and today, 

 in spite of a complete calorific dietary, 

 the people of Germany are beginning to 

 develop the disease of mal nerve nutri- 

 tion. There are beginning in Germany

 YOUR HORSES/ 



Heavy spring work takes the surplus flesh from 

 the horse. His collar no longer fits. His neck 

 and shoulders chafe and gall. He 

 can't do his full share of work and you 

 lose money. Prevent these evils by 

 using TAPATCO Pads. 



A NEW AND BETTER 

 HOOK ATTACHMENT 



Consisting of wire staple, reinforced 

 with felt washer (note where arrows 

 point). This gives the hook a better 

 hold and prevents pulling off. The 

 weakest point is made strong and 

 life of pad greatly lengthened. 

 Found Only on Pads Made by Us. 



Look For The Felt Washer.
