A Sea of Tomatoes
THE United States is turning
red. No. we don’t mean Bolshe
vism but tomatoes. The amount
of tomato juice which is now
drunk in this country would make
a veritable sea. This juice was
originally squeezed from fresh
ripe tomatoes, but more and more
brands of it are now being put
up in cans.
With the development of the
sanitary enamel lined can and the
perfecting of factory methods of
canning tomato juice, it has
leaped suddenly into fame as one
of the most widely used beverages
in this country.
• Good for All
From infancy to old age, tomato
juice is a good food. It is rich
in mineral salts and in vitamins
A and B. It is also recognized as

one of the most important sources
of vitamin C. and ranks in this
respect with oranges and lemons.
The vitamin C in the tomato is
resistant to heat, a characteristic
shared by few other foods, and so
the tomato is equally valuable
raw or canned.
Babies under one year old are
now frequently given strained
tomato juice by their physician’s
orders to supplement the milk
which has little vitamin C.
Color Connotes Health
The rich red color of tomato
juice has no other connotation ex
cept health. Its juice should in
clude some of the pulp to give it
proper color, and this problem has
been solved in the several good
and inexpensive canned juices
which are now on the market.*
HOT WEATHER WORRIES
S. GEORGIA FARMERS
Macon, Ga.—Farmers of southern
Georgia are complaining of losses
from the heat wave which has cen
tered in this section for several
days, reaching a maximum today
of 97.2 degrees. Unless rain comes
quickly, farmers say, there will be
heavy damage to crbps of all kinds.
Already there has been damage
to some fields of melons, indicating
a considerable reduction in the p ro
bable yield in the south Georgia t..
ritory.
Ripening of tobacco is also tak- ‘-
place earlier than usual. Peac €S
have not been damaged by the hea
it is stated, but moisture would
prove the size. *
