BEANS FOR SouP-Thc use Of beans as an
article of food, is not so considerable as it
should be. Beans are the most nutritious
Of all kinds Of food used by man. Chemical
analysis, and tho experience of those who
make extensive use Of them, demonstrate
this. To make good bean soup, take one
quart of white beans and shank beef bone
and boil all together for two hours then add
salt and pepper for seasoning. The use of
bones is not so much esteemed as they
should be in food. BY boiling them in soup
some Of the phosphate of lime, which goes TO
form our bones, is taken up and we thus get
asupply Of a necessary element for our bod
