''The English egg rn;tssee has gone

There is the difficulty in process OF

problem proved to be quite difficult, in
that the spores themselves are resistans

animal will thrive upon one and
starve upon the other One would
like to see this assertion tested by
q carefully guarded experiment
If it is true, it is very significant.
We do know that two substances,
alcohol and ether, for example,
may be exactly alike in their
chemical composition, and yet differ
widely in their properties and uses.
Chemistry gives no hint as TO the
arrangement of the molecules in
the different articles Of food, which
arrangement accounts for the dif-
ferences in their food value. Az
least. there seems to be no other
explanation. The analogy is seen
in the letters Of word: arranged
i'll one order, they spell one word,
in another order, another; God
and dog are made up Of the same
word elements.
To meet the objection that car
nivorous animals thrive upon meat
alone, Dr. McCollum asserts that
the lion, for instance, first sucks
the blood Of its victim and
then tears open the abdomen and
devours the liver, the kidneys and
the other soft parts, and thus gets
the indispensable fat soluble. One
would like to know what proof he
has that lions proceed in this man.
ner. Lions in confinement ara
fed entirely on red meat usually
attached to the bone, to give them
something to gnaw and to supply
lime and other mineral clements.
Eagles, condors, buzzards and
vultures in captivity are fed upon
red meat alone, SO far as | have
been able to ascertain We know
that underfed animals do not grow

lay few eggs. But We know that
the underfed human is quite likely
to be very prolific.
To be kept in normal state of
health and efficiency, Of course,
both man and beast need a well
balanced ration, yet men do their
work and beasts thrive and multiply
on deficient ratons.
There are, no doubt, valuable
suggestions in DR.. McCoilum's
treatise. We have always known
what valuable foods milk and eggs
are to those who can use them.
