CHANGES IN BRITISH DIET.
Statistics on Food Stuffs Gathered by
London Medical Jour
nal,

According to the British Medical
Journal, there have been several
changes in the diet Of the inhabitants
of the British Isies during the last 80
ears. DIR. Chalmers Wilson, writing
upon this subject, says:
"The two most striking changes are
enormously larger consumption Of
meat and Increased use Of the food
stuffs classified unaer confectionery
and succades.
'Tn the year 1853 the amount Of
meat imported was three pounds per
head per annum, or 742,13S cwts. for
27.5 millions Of people. In 1903 this had
increased to SO pounds per head per an
mum, or 19,183,944 cwts. for 43.3 mil
lions of people.
1.-THE significance Of this increase is
enhanced by the fact that in the past
30 years more land-24 per cent.-has
been permanently devoted to pasture
for rearing cattle for home consump-
ton.
Facts equally interesting and Curl
Gus are that in the past 20 years there
has been no considerable increase in
the consumption of tea. ana that a
string decrease has been shown in the
consumption of coffee"

TURKEY AND BEEF.
Weight for Weight the Former u
More Valuable ~ . Food
Than the Latter.

Discussing the comparative food value
Of roast beef and turkey. the English
Lancet says:
First, It may be said that weight for
weight the flesh Of the turkey is more
nourishing than that Of beef, but the
latter Is, generally speaking, cheaper
than the former. The moisture in beef.
however, exceeds the amount present in
the flesh Of the turkey, and the latter
contains a better percentage of proteid
or fiesh-forming substance. In either
case the percentage Of moisture is sell
dom less than 10 per cent
In lean beef the amount Of fat is much
the same as in not too well-fed turkey,
but 1t must be pointed out that the flesh
of poultry differs from that Of beef and
mutton in not having its muscular fibers
permeated by fat, and. moreover, the
fibers in the flesh of the fowl are short,
and readily yield to the disintegrating
action Of the digestive processes. A
large amount Of fat in either case is apt
to interfere with the digestibility Of the
meat. The fat of beef Is more digesti-
BILE than the fat Of turkey. The fat OF
birds, In fact, Is harder, and, owing to its
tendency to become rancid. is unsuitable
for the dyspeptic patient.
Perhaps the most important difser-
ence, however, from dietetic point of
view, between beef and turkey is that
whereas beef contains high percentage
Of extractive matters, turkey contains
hardly any at all. The extractive mat
ters in beef account largely for its pc
culiar and marked flavor, and owing to
their absence in poultry generally, and
in the pheasant and partridge, the flavor
of these meats is delicate. But there Is
no doubt that the extractives of beef, az
well as mutton, are valuable, for not
only are they fiavoring agents, but they
also act as, perhaps, the most powerful
stimulant to gastric digestion.

A FOOLISH PREJUDICE.
Objections to Pure-Bred Dairy Stock
Are ul-Founded and
UnWiso.

The average dairy farmer has his
share Of unfounded prejudices, and II
they are unfounded then they are fool
ish. One Of these prejudices, which
stands like q veil between his eyes and
the truth, is that which relates to pure
bred dairy cattle, says Hoard's Dairy
man A great many farmers are breed
ing their herds down instead Of up be-
cause Of this prejudice. Any man who
uses . grade bull shows that prejudice
and Is breeding his heifers and future
cows down.
II these men would study this breed
ing question. II they would obtain by
reading the ideas and opinions Of the
best posted breeders, II they would re-
fleet for q moment how all develop
ment in an upward direction has been
obtained. they would cast this preju-
dice aside, and use only pure-bred
males. The experience Of the best men
in cattle breeding is worth something
to the dairy farmer. II he would only
thing so. Thousands Of them do think
SO, and we see them providing them.
selves with good books and papers
wherein such experience is recorded
But where there il one such dairy
farmer, there are ten who face the
other way. They keep the poorest
cows, and, as II that was not enough
they breed for the coming heifer with
a scrub or low-grade bull. Such men
do not realize what dairy farming
means. They do not realize the i'm
portance Of having strong, prepotent
dairy blood In the male, II they expect
any Improvement in the resulting heif
ers. They are governed too much by
prejudice and what they do not know
rather than what they do know. In.

POLICE IN CITY OF MEXICO
Are Of Excellent Reputation and
Must Submit to Strict
Discipline.

The police Of the City Of Mexico are
selected with great care. A man must
be In good physical condition to be .
member Of the force, although 1t is not
necessary for him to pass rigid phys
ical examination, and his reputation
for sobriety, honesty and reliability
must be beyond question, says the
Mexican Herald. They are men who
have great physical endurance, yet the
police Of this city are not hard wokred.
At any time the men are liable to a
call for special duty but their regu-
lar work Is for eight hours. The
shifts are made three times q day for
the purpose of having always on duty
men who are not fatigued with long
hours Of watchfulness. Practically
every block in the city has its police
man, and while they are not patrol
men In the strict sense Of the word.
since they do not patrol everything,
they are always near at hand when
any disturbance Is made and crimes

Instead of walking a beat the police
Of the City Of Mexico are stationed

their place is the center Of the in

their place is taken by their lanterns
and one looking up any street at night
may form an accurate idea Of the num-
ber of men who are on watch for dis

tending up the middle Of each street.
