health and strength Of all are intimately
dependent upon their diet. Yet most peo-
pie understand very little about what
their food contains. how II nourishes
them. whether they are economical or
wasteful I'm buying and preparing II for
use and whether or not the food they eat
is rightly fitted to the demands of their
bodies.
Scientific research. interpreting the OBJ j.
servations Of practical life. implies that
several errors are common in the use OF
foods.
First. many people purchase needlessly
expensive kinds or foods. doing this under
the false impression that there is some
peculiar virtue in the costlier materials,
and that economy in our diet is somehow
detrimental TO our dignity or our welfare
And. unfortunately. those who are most
extravagant in this respect are often the
ones who can least AFFORD II.
Secondly. the food which we eat does
not always contain the proper proportions
of the different kinds OF nutritive ingre-
dents We consume relatively too much
OF the fuel or heat producing foods. such
as the fats OF meat and butter, the starch
which makes up the larger part OF the
nutritive material OF flour and potatoes
and sugar and sweetmeats Conversely
we have too little OF the protein OF flesh
lcrIllIB lhsTeulehls, sucn as lean of meat
and fish and the gluten OF wheat. which
make muscle and slnew and which are
the basis of blood. bone and brain.
Thirdly, many people, not only weIl-to-
do but those in moderate circumstances.
use needless quantities OF food. Part OF
the excess, however, is simply thrown
away with the wastes OF the table and
kitchen; so that the injury to health
great as II may be. is doubtless much
less than 10 ssl were eaten. Probably the
The San Francisco call., 1899-12-10

worst sufferers from this evil are ths
well-to-do people OF sedentary occupa-
lons-brain workers as distinguished
from hand workers.
Finally we are guilty OF serious errors
In our cooking. We waste q great deal OF
fuel In the preparation OF our food. and
badly cooked. A reform In these methods
or cooking Is one Of the economic de-
mands OF the day.
We cannot Judge OF the nutritfve value
OF food by the quantity. This fact may bo
clearly shown by analysis OF the various
foods. There Is as much nutrlment in a
pound or wheat flour as In three and one
half quarts OF oysters. weighing severr
pounds. There IL still less connection be-.
tween nutritive value and price. In buy
ing at ordinary market rates we get as
much material TO build up our bodies. re-
pair their wastes and give strength for
work In cents worth OF -four or beans
as 80 cents or VI will pay for In tenderloin
or Holsters.
Round steak at 10 cents per pound IS
just as digestible and IS fully as nutri-
uous tenderlOin at 30 cents. Twenty
five cents invested In "A pint Of oysters win
yield about one ounce Of protein and 30
heat units OF energy. The same p cents
OF protein and 300 heat units OF energy.
The question as To how much nutriment
persons OF different age, sex and occupa-
tiOn need. and the best foods to give this
desired quantity. has been the subject OF
considerable research. Various standards
have been proposed by Physiologists and
sons OF different age. sex and occupation.
They are usually estimated In terms Of
the three classes OF nutritive ingredients,
protein. fats and carbohydrates. A stand
ard for ration or dietary may ba
based upon either:
First, the observed >acts OF consump-
tion.
Second. the actual need and availabls
or most economical supply. Standards
estimated on this basis would take into
account not only the actual demands OF
the body for nourishment. but also tho
kinds of food that are TO be had and tho
cost Of the nutrients In various food ma
terials.
Third. the physiological demand by
this Is meant the quantities OF nutrients
which are most appropriate for the par
ticular individual or class. Standards es-
timated upon the first basis would cor
respond 10 actual practice. Those upon
the second would take into account both
pecuniary and hygienic economy. Those
OF the third would consider only what
was intrinslCally most fitting.
The following American dletaries have
been calculated from a large number ot
results based upon actual observation or

That Farmers Club Again.

We read recently with deep interest
an account of the last meeting Of the
Montgomery Farmers Club, ana it has
put us to thinking again Of our Prince
Edward Farmers Club-to be.
At the meeting Of our Montgomery
friends they discussed such questions
as these: "rhe time for saving and
applying stable manure" ''The most
effective method for destroying broom
sage
Surely such discussions must he OF
profit, and that the farmers would en-
ioy eating together now and then goes
without saying. If one good reason
can be given against the organization
of a Farmers Club in Prince Edward
we will say no more on the subject
but until that is done we must be per
mitted te "keep on" urging the good
work. The HERALD would, of course
be represented at each dinner session
and unless "toO full for utterance'
