VIEWS OF SCIENTIFIC MEN:
Wheat BY common consent ranks first IN nu-
tritivo value among grains. 1t abnund5 IN the
valuable elements which the body requires
mineral matter for the bones; gluten Tor the
tissues, starch for respiration. Youmans.
THE nutritive quality of any variety OF grain
depends very much upon tho proportion OF
gluten it contains. By sitting out the bran we
randar tho meal less nutritious tn total sep.
arstion of the covering Of the grain causes m UGH
waste of wholesome human food. Bread or food
made from the whole wheat or meal is therefore
more nutritious, and as many persons iud IT
also more Statutory food than white bread 1t
ought to be more generally prepared and used
-1Johnston.
The outer husk of the wheat grain contains no
gluten or other nntritive quality whatever, and
Being very absorbent Of moisture readily gen.
crates mould and decay.
By our improved process of decortlcaton, this
| worthless, unwholesome huak is removed, (0ut
not the inner bran while, at the same time, the
unbroken grain is cleaDscd of smut, cookie, ust,
insect eggs, and other impurities, $50 common
to all wheat.) and thoroughly dried.
