BY E. T. BREWSTER

To get a nutritive value above l 900 cal
cries to the pound, food must either be
somewhat fat or else pretty dry. Red meats,
though they run fifty, sixty, and even sew
enty per cent. water, make it up by being
among the latest of foods. Sirloln, tender
loin, and porterhouse steaks are tar sam
pie of our meats. These run 200 calorles
to the pound; though lean cuts of meat may
drop as low as 5OO and fat ones come close
to 1000. Naturally, pork and mutton run
higher than beef and veal. Let us say, then,
1000 to 800 calories for the meats that
have both fat and water.
Cereals have little of either fat or water.
All dry fours, therefore, wheat, barley,
corn, rice, oats, rye, buckwheat, popcorn,
breakfast foods, noodles, macarom and the
rest,-alike lie close around 200 calorles to
the pound. With any food made from grain,
it becomes simply question of how much
water goes in on one side, and how much fat
goes in on the other An ordinary breakfast
musi, therefore, made one part out of the
package and four parts out of the faucet,
will be worth one-fifth of LOO calores to
the pound. The cream added at 900 Cream
being three-fourths water) and the sugar at
800 will pull the mixture up to perhaps 5OO.
Common breads, quarter to a third
water, eaten without butter, all lie close to
1000 calories to the pound, and are there
fore almost exactly as nutritious as the ordl-
nary cuts of meat. Butter at $500, spread
thick, Jumps the food value almost as fast as
it jumps the cost. Chemistry, therefore,
bears out the ancient saying, "1f bread is the
staff of life, then bread and butter is its gold
headed cane"
Crackers and cookies, being practically
dry flour, must carry at least l ZOO calorleS
of energy in each pound. Usually, however
they have little fat and often a good deal
of sugar, and the two together bring them
close to 1000. Cakes and pies are more
moist than crackers and cookies, and at the
same time Shorter" In general, these lie
between bread and crackers; or, say, roughly
around | 500 calories. Here too belong dried
figs and dates, at AIS and 1915 together
with most candies. Doughnuts, on account
of their fat, commonly reach 1000.
To get much above 1000 calories, food
must be both rich and dry. The latest
meats do it, and one or two of the latest
cheeses. Cocoa runs 1900 and chocolate
$500 as they come in the package; so that
even when diluted into drinks they rival the
less nutritious half of our foods. Nuts are
extraordinarily nutritious, around 5000 cal
cries, and even as high as 3,4OO.
Beyond the 5000 mark lie only the nearly
pure fats, such as butter and clear salt pork.
These should contain about ten per cent. of
water and be worth 5000 calories of energy
to the pound. At the top of the heap come
refined lard, tallow, cottolene, and olive oil.
These are just fat, practically one hundred
per cent. pure. and a pound of any of them
is good for ,220 calories of work.

That Bad Storm.

The storm which recently de-
stroyed several barns in the south

cd me to call attention to the fact
that some of the reliable Fire Insur-
ance Companies. TO which | am

city property against fire, are also
insuring farmers buildings against

LoRiMER is SCORED
BY Crawford, Who Says Former Knew
Of the illegal Acts.

Washington, Jan. 11.--ln an cxllaus-
tive apd carefully prepared speech,
Senator Coe Crawford of South Da-
kota Tuesday denounced the alleged
methods employed by agents of Sem
ator William Lorimer in the Legisla-
ture of Illinois and declared it his con-
viction that Mr.. Lorimer was not en-
titled to retain his seat in the upper
branch of Congress.
More than usual interest attached to
the speech because Mr. era wford took
a stand directly opposite to that MAIN
tanned by his colleague. Mr.. Gamble.
In the face of Mr. Lorimer's repeated
protestations of innocence, Senator
Crawford fatty charged that the latter
was cognizant of the questionable
practices of his lieutenants.
u regret to say it," declared Mr..
Crawford with emphasis. but Il am
personally convinced that Mr.. Lorimer
knew enough about what was going
on at Springfield to put reasonably
prudent man upon inquiry; that Shurt-
left and Browne were his political
agents and that he ratified their acts
and accepted the fruits of their cor
rupt practices of which he must at
least have had some knowledge"

bill authorizing Speaker Frank A. Nus
grove to appoint special committee
to consider the subject of railroad
rates.
y DILL was introduced Tuesday to re-
peal the portions of the act of 1889 for
bidding the raising of existing freight
and passenger. rates on railway lines
whose lease to the Boston & Maine
Railroad was authorized by that act.
Despite this provision of the law. the
Boston & Maine a few years ago
raised freight rates on some of its
leased lines i'm New Hampshire. There
was no protest for some time, but fl
nally Attorney General Edwin G. East
man, on petition of citizens, brought
srit to enjoin the railroad from en-
forcing the higher rates. The lower
courts upheld the state, but the rail-
road appealed and the matter is now
before the supreme court of New
Hampshire.
Last fall, President Charles Mellcn.
shortly after assuming the presidency
of the Boston a. Maine, announced that
the railroad intended to comply with
the law and was prepared to restore
the old rates as soon as the supreme
court should determine to just what
portions of the Boston & Maine sys-
tenn in this state the law in question
applied. At the same time he express
ed the hope that the Legislature this
winter would repeal the prohibitive
law, claiming that the present rates
were necessary to the prosperity of his
