CALIFORNIA AVOCADO ASSOCIATION 



91 



For Invalids: There should be no objection whatever to the use of 

 the avocado for invalids provided fat in the diet is not contra-indicated. 



We will be glad to confer with the officials of the Association with 

 the view of revising the suggestions for preparing the avocado for 

 the table.
