Suggested for adults: 18 ounces (about one loaf) of whole wheat a day, for carbo-lydrates; two-fifths of an ounce of salt, tor maintaining the water balance in body tissues; the same quantity of brewers' yeast, for vitamin B; one-twelfth of an ounce of cod-liver oil, for vitamin A; half a lemon twice weekly, for vitamin C.

...French and German champagne cellars. In 1932 Mr. Moore returned to California, and last week he told Sacramento reporters that after six years of experiment he had perfected a modern method of making champagne from oranges. To the juice of oranges and grapefruit he adds distilled water, dextrose and yeast. The mixture is then slowly drawn through a series of five glass-lined, airtight, chromium-fitted 200-gal. tanks. By the time the juice reaches the last tank, 75% of the sugar has been converted into alcohol. This takes ten days...

Even patients who were violently insane dramatically regained their wits within 48 hours. In a few days they were able to eat pellagra-preventing foods...
Last winter, while balletomanes gasped in the sidelines, the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo split itself neatly into two rival ballet organizations. To one of them, newly backed by several midwest socialites including Yeast-Tycoon Julius Fleischmann under the name World-Art, Inc., went famed Choreographer Leonide Massine. Also to be drawn under the World-Art aegis was the Monte Carlo Ballet of Monte Carlo. To the opposite camp, sup ported by Prince Serge Obolensky and cohorts of Manhattan socialites, went rangy Colonel de Basil, a great deal of scenery and the right to produce most of the important ballets...
