Food Values Should Be
Understood by Those
Who Feed Families

Philadelphia, Dec. IA meeting
of the Council of Jewish Women in
the Mercantile Club was devoted en-
tirely to the discussion of subjects
calculated to help in food conserva-
ton. Mrs. A. A. Eshner presided
and Professor Charles II. laval de-
scribed the food situation, and gave
an analysis of the activities which
had been suggested to promote the
saving of food. He then told of the
relative merits of the ordinary foods.
He contended that most people eat
too much, and that in the choice of
their menus they disregarded the
necessary combinations, eating too
much of some things which they lik-
ed and disregarding other things
which were essential to the health of
the body. He mentioned some OF the
most nutritious foods which are the
cheapest on the market, and which
should be used now in the effort 10
conserve food. He gave government
data on the relative value of some
kinds of food as follows:
One package of prepared cereal
flakes contains 575 calories, while one
package of rolled oats contains L.
500 calories; one can of lima beans
contains $50 calories and one pound
OF uTleu llllld DEANS, liGUUs one DOuHl
of steak contains only 500 calories,
as compared with one pound of
cheese, which has 1900; one quart of
oysters has only 450 calories. as
compared with one quart of milk,
which has 1000. Coffee, he said
had no nutritive value at all, while
one pound of cocoa contains 5000
calories. A pint of pickles has only
100 calories, while a pound of candy
has 1850. One dozen of eggs lave
$50 calories, while a pound and a
quarter of bacon has 1000 calor-
les.
Mr.. laval said that of all the
foods that whichcontained Tnost OF
the necessary constituents and was
the cheapest by comparison on the
market was milk, and next to milk
all the other dairy dishes.
Mrs. laval spoke at some length
of the need of every woman feeling
the responsibility of saving food
and mentioned particularly the great
economy in making bread by mixing
cornmeal -four with wheat flour
Twenty per cent. of the cornmeal
flour made a dough, she said. which
tasted the same as all-wheat bread
and which would be an immense saw
ing in wheat, if the housekeepers
would only use it in their homes.
