Funds to FIoht TrbercuI,sis.


Based on reports from all parts OF
citation for the Study and Prevention
of tuberculosis has Issued a statement
which shows that in 1910 nearly $751;
100000 was spent in the fight against
tuberculosis, as opposed to 100000
spent in 1909. The largest item of ex-
pense In 1910 was for treatment In
sanatoria and hospitals, 81, 1885, 500 be-
ing expended for that purpose, or
more than double the amount for 1909.
The anti-tuberculosis associations
spent $3.50, 500, and the tuberculosis
dispensaries $3.50 900. The special mu-
nicipsl and state expenditures aggre
gate $1,750,O00
The statement declares that the
most significant fact in the survey of
the years work Is the increase in the
percentage of public money spent
While in 1909 53.5 per cent of the
total expenditure was from federal,
state, municipal or county funds. 626
per cent came from public appropria-
tons in 1910. The actual amount Of
public money spent in tuberculosis
work this past year was $9,267 900, or
more than double the amount from
this same source in 1909 This fact
indicates, the national association de-
clares, that anti-tuberculosis associa-
lions are gaining ground, by securing
increased appropriations from public
money.

TO RETAIN FLAVOR IN MEAT
Escape OF Extractives May Be Hin
dered by Soaring Surface of
Meat Quickly.

The amount OF the extractives which
Will be brought out into the water
when meat is boiled depends upon the
size of the pieces into which the meat
Is cut and on the length of time they
are soaked in cold water before be-
ing heated. A good way to hinder
the escape of the f1avoring matter is
to scar the surface of the meat quickly
by heating 1t in fat, or the same end
may be attained by plunging 1t into
boiling water. Such facts are known
to all cooks and have recently been
studied systematically at the Illinois
experiment station in relation to the
amounts removed and the losses which
may be involved in different methods
Of cookery. Such solubility is taken
advantage of in making beef tea at
home and in the manufacture of meat
extract, the extracted material being
finally concentrated by evaporating the
water.
