Cooke county residents will off-
set short supplies of meat, wheat,
fats and oils by consuming nearly
13,495,800 pounds of the nation's
bumper fresh fruit and vegetable
crop to maintain high nutritional
standards this year, it was pre-
dicted today by a leading food
distributor.
“Fresh fruits and vegetables
will adequately supplement the
limited supplies of many foods
now available," said Harvey
Baum, head of the A & P Food
stores’ produce-buying ope r a -
tions. “Increased use of perish-
able produce will permit ship-
ment of other foods to those hun-
ger-ridden nations nuw subsist-
ing on daily diets ranging from
1,000 to 1,500 calories as compared
with an average of 3,300 calories
for this country.”
2,430 Farms in County
Part of the fresh fruits and
vegetables consumed by Cooke
residents comes from this coun-
ty’s 2,430 farms and neighboring
growers. Large amounts of per-
ishables are received from other
sections to meet the county’s
year-round needs. The develop-
ment of more efficient distribu-
tion methods, Baum said, has
helped double fresh fruit and
vegetable consumption in the
past 25 years and makes possi-
ble a greater selection of foods
necessary for a well-rounded diet
and a higher standard of living.
Basing his estimates on pre-
liminary indications of food pro-
duction and consumption for
1948, Baum said that each per-
son in the country will eat an
average of 1,695 pounds of food
this year. This represents a 10
per cent increase over the 1935-
1939 average, with fresh fruits
and vegetables accounting for
nearly one-third of the food to
be consumed, he added.
