come giving tart refreshment as lemonade on a hot sum
mer day or lending their distinctive flavor to relieve the drab

Plump yellow wedges of
lemon are on a plate to make

them' They can make an im
pel tant conti ibution to health,
too, it the vitamin C from
other foods does not meet the
daily requirements of the indi
vidual. A si\-cut lemon wedge
can add 5 peicent of the
amount ot vitamin C recom
mended pei day lor an adult
A whole lemon has almost one
tlmd of the lecommended
