GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES TO BE
 ExPERIMENTED ON.
Twelve Young Men Agree to Take Food Only at the Order of Pro- lessor Wiley of the AgFi-
 cultural Department.

Washington. Nov. 2o.-Prof. W. H. Wiley. Chief of the Bureau of Chemistry of the Agricultural Department, next Monday. will begin a series of experi- ments on twelve young men in govern ment employ for the purpose of testing the physiological effects of the use of meat preserved with borax and other chemicals.
 The experiments will be made with a view of deciding what basis there is for the objections of the German government to American meats.
 The twelve young men selected are vol- unteers and all are young and vigorous. Each has pledged himself during the pe- riod the tests are to last to abstain from food and drink except as 1t may be per- mitted by Professor Wiley. They are nearly all of them employed in the scien- tific bureaus of- the Agricultural Depart ment. Six of them will be fed on pure foods, untreated meats and vegetables. while the other six will partake of the same fare submitted to chemical treat ment. This arrangement will continue for about two weeks, and then the govern ment boarders will change their diet, those not eating chemically treated food adopting such a regime. while the others get untreated rations, and at the end of two weeks reversing their diet again.
 The men will be weighed before each meal and carful notes will be taken of their appearance each day. The last Congress made an appropriation and au- thorized the Department to conduct ex- periments to discover what effect if any the chemicals used on meats would have on human beings.
 Professor Wiley, in speaking of the ex- periments today said:
 'The best food obtainable will be given to the boys. The fare will not be lavish but will be above that of tAe average boaFding house and will include all the vegetables and meats of the season. Of course 1t would not do to give the names of the men They are clerks working for small salaries, and the item of free board will be big one to them. They will get their food without cost for year or more."
