The Chrapest Food.

Pro-. r. H. Chittenden says: "Meat
ia dear form OF food. In regard to
proteid matter, lean beef contains,
roughly speaking, twice as much aa
wheat fl ur, but beef is about four
times nh dear as -four, 30 that you may
estimate that proteids Of animal source
are about twice as costly as pfoteids OF
vegetable source"
The cheapest food 10 that which
supplies the most nutriment for the
least money. The well known maxim
that "the best 10 the cheapest" Is not
true OF foods; for the term "bsst" in
this connection is ordinarily applied to
that which has the finest appearance.
the finest flavor, the most tender
structure, etc., and does not neces-
sarily imply that 1t is the most nuiriti-
QUE, healthiul, or economical.
The high-priced tenderloin steak 10
simply o dietetic luxury; not
to be recommended on the ground
that 1t Is more nutritious. And yet
many Woodworking man, with the
laudable desire to provide hlmssif anu
family with good anu nutritious diet
AIRY, spends his hardearGed money in
reckless and foolish manner through
his ignorance OF the fact that tue food
sold at the highest price is not geuer-
ally the cheapest. He thinks he must
emulate his richer neighoor, and that
to economic by buying anything In
ierior in quality or cheaper In price
would be sacrifice OF both dignity and
principle. Experience has clearly
shown, also, that tea, coffee, and
similar stimulants are not required for
the healthy maintenance OF any bodily
function, and that they are especially
damaging to the nervous systeln.
II the protelds Of meats differ from
the proteids OF vegetables only in the
act that they are stimulating as well as
nutritious, resem blln, tea and coffee
in STIMULATING properties, this would
seem t. be rather an argument against
their use than III favor Of II. 1t Is safe
to predict that in the near future tar
greater attention will be given 10 nuts
aud other seeds rich in proieid matters.
and that nuts and jegumes OF various
kinds will be much more used as foods,
than is the custom at the present time.
