Store-house of health At one time tomatoes were grown purely as decorative novelties, and were known by the charming name of love-apples. Now we know that tomatoes are a grand pro- tective food; that they help to clear the complexion, give buoy- ant health and vitality, and guard against infection. Much of the goodness of toma- toes is retained in bottling. So bottle as many as you can, not only for their healthfulness but for the refreshing flavour and attrac- tive colour tomatoes add to your winter meals.
