YOUNG VEAL GOOD FOOD.

Until I'VE years ago, meat Of
calves three weeks old or less was
regarded with suspicion and was
not regularly salable. It was be-
lieyed to be indigestible, lacking in
nutrition and not generally whole
some. This seems to have been an
American prejudice without any
foundation, for it is a standard ar
ticle of diet in Europe and no i'll
effects result there from eating
young veal. The cases of meat pois-
oning resulting from the eating of
veal have been shown to be due to
poison producing bacteria which
contaminated the meat.
