If You Want to Be Full of
Pep, Eat Spinach, Tomatoes
This Is Advice of Aksel G. Olsen, Former Omahan,
Who Has Just Completed Research Work Into
Vitamine, Without Which Pigeons Die
and Pigs Lose Weight.
It vou want to be full of pep. eat
tomatoes and spinach.
This is the advice of Akscl C.
OIcn. formerly of Omaha, but now
assiotasit in chemistry ut Nebraska
Wcslcyan college, I'uivcrsity i'lace,
Neb., who lias completed a summer's
research work into the elusive vita
mine at the University of Minnesota,
Minneapolis
If is studies were under the super
vision of Dr. Ross A. Gortner, prob
acy the greatest authority on the
vitamine in the country.
Important for Babies.
"I found out that the old idea that
every man has to eat his peck of dirt
a pretty good one, after all," he said.
Hi animals arc fed chemically pure
foods they become ill and die. This
is important in the feeding of babies,
and in animal husbandry. '
''For instance, ordinary pasteur
ized milk is lacking in vitamir.es,
and babies get scurvy from drinking
it. If milk is boiled slowly the vita
mine content is destroyed, but if it
is boiled rapidly the vitamine con
tent is not seriously affected.
Pur Feed Kills Pigjjns.
"In one of the experiment pi
geons were led with polished rice, a
chemically pure food. They became I
nervous and finally died, following
a nervous attack which lasted or
dinarily about a minute. If they
were permitted to eat a small
; amount of green food conUuiii.tr
vitamine, however, or a little mi l;.
they became normal v.. thin half an
hour.
"To batches of hogj from the
same litter were ucd in another ex
periment. One was fed only o.i
corn, the other on corn and pow
dered milk. The hogs on the pow
dered milk diet were nearly ready
for market when I left. The others
had failed to gain in weight for sev
eral weeks. They were sU viti for
want of vitamine.."
To Cure Bow Legs.
Tomatoes and spinach, Mr. Ol.sen
repeated, are the best vitamine foods
in the average diet.
"If your children are bow legged,
feed 'em cod liver oil," he added with
a twinkle in his eye.
"Cod liver oil." he explained, "con
tains an anti-rickets vitamine, which
is very beneficial to the condition.
One of the professors at the univer
sity declared he could cure tvery
case of rickets in St. Paul and Min
neapolis for $5,000 spent for cod
liver oil."
Two Years in Army.
Mr. Olsen came to America from
Denmark about 10 years ago. He
picked up the English language rap
idly. He attended night school at
the Omaha Y. M. C. A.
He served for two years in the
army, one and otie-lulf of which
were in France.
lie is 25 years old. His mother
and sitter live in Vliinjt"ii, Neb.
He plans to return ta Nebraska
Weslryan a woik for Ins degree
and pursue his studies in bio-diem-itry.
