Studying why fruits taste that way. E.K. Nelson of the Department of Agriculture is shown making tests with an apparatus which the Department imported from Germany for the purpose of studying the essential oils or "flavor-giving" content of fruits and vegetables. At present chemists are acquainted with the essential oils of only a few fruits, such as some of the citrus group. The apparatus is a vacuum distill which permits the distillation of liquids at temperatures much lower than usual by reducing the pressure, 1/10/31

Health measures for low home temperatures. With less fuel available to heat America's homes, youngsters must have the right kind of inner fuel to keep them warm and healthy in sixty-five degree rooms. A balanced, vitamin-rich diet will aid materially in enabling children to build up resistance to the colder temperatures which will prevail this winter in homes and schools

Conservation. Glass gauges replacing steel. Mr. A.E. Smith and Mr. Stanley Farrow (left to right) of Army Ordnance's Gage Section, discuss glass gauges, which replace steel gauges at the Frankford Arsenal. Glass gauges are lighter and cheaper than steel, permit greater visibility in inspection, are not as much affected by room temperatures and heat of operators' hands, are not corroded by perspiration, need no protection against rusting, do not acquire burrs that would change the effective sizes. They can save the annual use of 250 tons of critical tool steel in Government arsenals alone
