When meat is cooked in water, IL
may loose from ten to fifty per cent.
in weight, depending upon the condi-
tions of cooking. Most of this loss
is due to the water cooked out of the
meat. Almost half of the water pres
ent in the raw meat is lost in this
way, so that it Is not surprising that
boiled meats should seem so dry.
Meats cooked by roasting lose from
thirteen to thirty-seven per cent. of
their total weight. Only about a
third of the water is lost under these
conditions, leaving the meat much
more Juicy. The roasted meat loses
very much more fat than does the
boiled meat, but this is not import
ant, since It may saved in the drip
pings, and more fat probably remains
in the meat than will be eaten.
The loss of the organic extractives
"a class of substances about which
very little is kDcwn, except that they
are responsible for the flavor and
stimulating effect of meats quite
different matter. When the meat is
broiled or roasted only small part
of these exude, but If they are cooked
in water more than three-fourths of
them are dissolved and pass into the
broth. The meats from which the
soluble constituents have been re-
moved are very much less effective
in stimulating the flow of the diges-
ton juices, and therefore have
lower dietetic value than those which
retain more of these substances. The
juciness, tenderness, and flavor of a
roast or porterhouse steak are of
sufficient physiological Importance to
justify to some extent a preference
for these, even at the higher price
one must pay for them, than for meat
for boiling or stewing.
In cooking meats in water the
losses increase with the length of
time and temperature of cooking.
The smaller the size of the pieces in
which the meat is cooked, the greater
also will be the losses. In roasting
the losses increase the more thor
oughly the meat is cooked. Meat
that is cooked well done loses fully
IWlce as MUCH as LnaI WHICH is lelt
rare. This means that the latter
is not only more juicy, but contains
more of the soluble flavoring constit-
uents than the former Being in a
condition that resembles raw meat,
it is more easily though not more
completely digested than is the we'll
done meat. All meats, irrespective
of the method of cooking have a
high food value when judged by the
kind and amount OF nutritive ingre-
| dients present.-Scientific American.

Radium Helps Determine The
Age OF The Globe.

Since the announcement OF the
marvellous discovery Of radium.
some Of our ideas concerning the
cosmic aspect of Our earth have UNI
dergone revolutionary changes. No
single conception has experienced
more Fundamental evolution than
has taken place in the doctrine of
secular cooling Of the globe, that
the physicists have so long assum-
ed, and to which they have so long
tenaciously held. That the earth
is a self-cooling globe, is a tenet
that no physicist for a moment
doubted. That the earth is also a
self-heating globe, is an idea that
no one. until very recently, even
fancied. The recognition Of RADIO
activity in matter has changed all.
Regarding the age of our earth,
the physicists not only admits that
his former estimates of 100000
to 100000 Of years are much too
small, but he is willing to grant
the geologist his fullest measure OF
time. He even goes further, and
is willing to give the geologist ten
times his claim for the span of ter
restrial existence.
Speaking of the newly discover
ed radio active properties of matter,
George Darwin, in his recent presi-
dental address before the British
Association for the Advancement
of Science, makes the statement
that they show that concentration
of matter is not the only source
from which the sun may draw its
heat. He further says, regarding
the evolutionary history of the
earth, that now ut does not seem
unreasonable to suppose that from
5OO,OO0,000 to 1,O00,0O0:0O0 years
may have elapsed since the birth Of
the moon.
As far as my knowledge goes. |
should say that pure geology points
to some intermediate between So
100000 and 1,000,000,000 years. the
upper limit being more doubtful
than the lower.
The determination of our earth's
age is one of the triumphs of mod
ern geological science. The length
of time which has elapsed since
life begun on this globe, and the
most ancient elastic rocks We know
of were deposited, may be greatly
in excess of 100000 years. &C.
ology's estimate is surely not too
great; but is, in all likelihood,
much too small.-From The Age
of our Earth," bv Charles Rollin

Passing of The Walnut.

The rich tones of the black wall
nut, so commonly used in furniture
twenty or thirty year ago now sell
dom meets the eye, except in some
old-fashioned or discarded piece.
This fact is due TO the practical
disappearance of walnut wood
from the market. So scarce has it
become that it is said to be difficult
to procure it even in small pieces
for the making Of gun stocks. Yet
black walnut is a tree Which grows
readily in our soil, and The lnterna-
tional Society Of Arboriculture sug-
gests that many farmers in the
northern and eastern states would
have valuable legacy for their de-
scendants and confer a public boon
by planting little walnut forests on
