Everyone knows that apples are tart, crisp, juicy, and delicious, especially now while they are being harvested and are tree-fresh. But do you know all the nutritional value it is possible to glean from apples? First of all, apples contain small, but beneficial amounts of Vitamins A, C, Thiamine and Riboflavin, calcium, phosphorus and iron. Apples also contain pectin and cellulose. These substances help stimulate and maintain normal intestinal ac tivity. In recent years, several studies have shown that pectin can help reduce cholesterol in the blood stream. Versatile pectin is also an sidfor clear, healthv skin. If you are in a reducing diet, remember that a medium sized apple contains about 70 calories. Sweet apples are blessed with levulose, a sugar quickly turned into energy. And as a toothbrush, apples work wonders. Yes, apples clean teeth - two ways.

An apple after meals is a delightful and healthy way to good eating and clean teeth. When you buy apples, look for those that are firm and crisp and have a fresh appearance.

Wicker and Rattan Gain Easy Care Popularity Wicker and rattan have always been at home in a garden, but lately the garden-look has been as popular indoors as out. Before storing this furniture or moving it to indoor rooms for the cooler months be sure you have cleaned it thoroughly. The key to washing natural wicker or rattan is to hose it down or place it in the bathtub and give it a warm shower. If it needs more than a shower, use soap or detergent suds and a cloth to wash it. Painted wicker is treated the same way except that cold water should be run on it and the object should not be soaked for a long period. It is easy to varnish or spray paint wicker or rattan furniture but make sure it is completely dry before beginning. New pillows will perk it up too, as long as they are just as washable as the chairs and sofas themselves are. LOVING CARE FOR PETS Because you love your pets, make sure they are comfortable every day. Brush the coat of a long-haired animal regularly and give him a weekly bath. See that the pillow of your pet’s bed is clean by tossing it in the washer at least every two weeks. Finally, keep playthings in sight and make sure that feeding is done on time and his dish washed afterwards. A wagging tail is well worth the effort! ★ FARM ★ ANIMAL ★ BQUIPMENT p^Wf FREE!
