Tht dark leaves, including turnips, mustard, kale, collarda, and tender greens, constitute our most valuable vegetables from a nutritional point of view. Greens top all vegetables as far as Vitamin A is concerned. One serving or one-half cup of turnip greens will mor than meet the daily requirements for Vitamin A. Green rate high in calcium, one-half cup yielding 'one quarter of the daily requirement of calcium for an adult. Rich in iron, a serving of greens supplies one-fourth of the daily mineral requirement.

Greens are also high tn ascorbic acid or Vitamin if they ara properly cooked. Although this vitamin ia so easily lost in cooking, enough Vitamin can be had from one serving of greens plus "pot likker" to almost meet the daily requirement. ik.ti. war implement fry interesting and bftr. af Gternr Honored Hargrove, Noxapater; Kenneth Hunter, Nell Horton, Ijirraine Jackson, J- an Johnson, Decatur; Pauline Kerh, Goshen Spring; Myrtice McMuilan, Gaynell Hajare, Bonnie Jean Meador, Cordelia Russell, Lillian Taylor, Claud Vance, Decatur.
