Dlstrlnutlon q the sons 81 Taste.


Taste, however, il not equally dis
tributed over the whole surface of the
tongue alike. There are three distinct
regions or tracts. each Of which has to
perform its own special Office and
function. The tip Of the tongue is
concerned mainly with pungent and
acrid tastes; the middle portion is SEN
sitive chiefly to sweets and bitters:
while the bacx or lower portion con
fines itself almost entirely to the fiavors
Of roast meats, butter, oils, and other
rich or fatty substances There are
very good reasons for this subdivision
of faculties in the tongue, the object
being. as it were, to make each piece
of food undergo three separate exami-
nations (like ''smaIls." mods" and
greats" at Oxford), which must be
successfully passed before it is admit
ted into full participation in the human
economy. The first examination, as
we shall shortly see, gets rid at once
of substances which would be actively
and Immediately destructive to the
very tissues of the mouth and body;
the second discriminates between
poisonous and chemically harmless
food-stuffs: and the third merely decides
the minor questions whether the par
ticular food is likely to prove then and
there wholesome or indigestible to the
particular person. The sense of taste
proceeds, in fact, upon the principle Of
gradual selection and elimination; it
refuses first what is positively destruct-
i've, next what is more remotely
deleterious, and finally what is only un-
desirable or over-luscious-P Popular

Fodder, Live Weight and Carcass.
The results of feeding experiments
made at Rothamsted. England, by
Prof. J. B. Laws, and reported upon
by him, furnish the following inter-
esting items concerning the relative
proportion Of fodder. live weight and
carcass: 'SSheep will consume about
Is pounds of dry or mixed foods
lroots. hay and cake or corn per week
for each 100 pounds live weight, and
they should yield about one pound in
crease in live weight for about nine
pounds of dry substance of this food.
Oxen under similar conditions, but re-
ceiving small quantity of straw chaff
with the other foods, will consume
about twelve pounds to thirteen
pounds Of dry food to each 100 pounds
live weight weekly, and should give
one pound increase to each twelve
pounds or thirteen pounds of dry food
consumed. Pigs fed literally on corn
will consume from twenty-six pounds
to thirty pounds Of dry substance for
100 pounds live weight weekly. and
they should yield one pound increase
of live weight for four pounds to Eve
pounds Of dry substance of food con-
sumed. Moderately fat sheep should
yield So per cent. carcass in fatted live
weight and excessively fat sheep Ga
per cent or more. Moderately fat
pigs killed for fresh pork should yield
(including the head and feet) 80 to 81
per cent. carcass in fatted live weight,
while large, well-fattened pigs killed
for curing will yield q considerably
higher proportion.-NesC York World.
