COMPARISON OF FOODS.
AUTHORITIES SAY THAT TOO MUCH
MEAT is EATEN.

DIR. w L. Munro of Providence R. l., dis
cussng yesterday the question of how the prob

solved said:
I agree that Americans do not eat enough vese-
cooked more that would be a great advance. Po-
tatoes are nutritve, but the way many people
prepare them much of the nourishment is lost. The
best experiments regarding the comparative values
OF 1909 nave oeen laaoe 9s ele I my Of men
brought together and subjected to equal exercise
makes possible experiments which pretty safe
guide posts. Our army consumes more meat than
Continental armies; average much larger
than the French for instance Does this prove
that beef eating makes bigger and more powerful
What men should eat depends largely on their
way Of living. An ordinary laborer who spends
much of his day in the streets or fields could not

Dr. w. Gilman Thompson authority on
dietetics compares the nutritive value of ami
NAL and vegetable foods as follows:
Errors in diet are far more common on the side
of excessive meat eating than the eating OF TOO
nuch vegetable food The estimate commonly
given that meat should occupy one-fourtn anu

common wants of the animal system are ABOUT
nine of fat twenty-five of flesh forming substances

is the only rational one.
| Speaking of vegetarianism DIR. Thompson
says:
In regard to an exclusive almost exclusive

GREAT DEMAND FOR LOCOMOTITEs
An OFFICER OF A BUILDING COMPANY SAYS
THAT so MANY ARE NEEDED HERE
HE COULD DO LITTLE FOR
FOREIGN TRADE.

Speskins OF the expectation of locomotives abroad
an officer OF one locomotive building company said
Yesterday after reading the London dispatch re-
gardinS Lord Cromer's report concerning the use
of foreign built locomotives in Egypt. that the
demand for locomotives great in this country
that his company could not do much in the foreign
field.
Comparisons of cost of operating. he said. We're
not always to be relied upon determining the
supsriority of a certain machine. they might
have been made between locomotives built to haul
trains OF very different weights Naturally. the
engine intended for a heavy train, such are used
in this country under small load. would cost more
to operate d mile than one built for a light
load. 1t is undoubtedly true, he said. that the
United States could deliver locomotives quicker
than could England.
He was OF the opinion that foreigners when they
needed additional power in hurry would suddenly
their prejudice in favor of English built
machines and come the United States for them
A railroad could almost the cost OF the loco
motive in the time that would elapse between the

RITES UPHOLDS CIRCUITS OPINION.
THE CORPORATION COUNSEL SAYS EsTI-
MATE BOARD AND ALDERMEN HAVE
FULL CONTROL OF CITY Salaries
WITH FEW EXCEPTIONS

Corporation Counsel Rtves yesterday sustained
the contention of Controller Grout by saying that
the Board of Aldermen and the Board of Estimate
and Apportonment had absolute control of city
salaries. with the exception of those paid day
laborers and those paid by the Board of Educa-
ton.
The Charter Revision Commission made this
salary fixing question the subject of d special
message to the legislature said Mr. Rives. 1T
was thought the proper thing to give the Board of
Estimate and the Board of Aldermen power fix
salaries. The language Of Section SO is plain
plain that am surprised that at this late day
intent should have been discovered. All salaries
paid out OF the city treasury in the
control of the two boards | have named. except
the pay of day laborers and the salaries paid by
the Board of EduCa ton
1t was suggested yesterday that the Board of
Estimate and Apportionment and the aldermen
would before long give their attention the sal
aries paid 10 the justices of the Supreme Court
In the lst and Hid departments Under the State
law Justices receive 5000 but in this county $4,000
year IS added, so that city justice gets more
than double that paid to his colleague up the
State.
Il do not mean to say said Controller Cirout
yesterday that il is the intention admins
tration to reduce the salaries paid the police the
fremen and the street cleaners. but We have the
power do so
