WHAT DOES A CAL
ORlE MEAN TO YOU?

"a family consisting of father,
mother, and three children requires
about a hundred and twenty 100
,alorie portions for an adequate daily
1iet.'
How much would that have meant
20 the average housekeeper ten years
ago? She probably could not have
old whether calories were ISLANDS or
canned goods" as Mr.. DOoley said of
he Philippines Lately, however, say
The authorities in charge of this work
in the U. S. Department of Agricul-
ture, calOries have been taken and
written about so much that the house
wife at least has vague notion that
hey are in some way connected with
ihe value Of food to the body and that
he more calories she can provide for
her family, the better it will be nOur-
Ished. The U. S. Department of Agri-
rulture has recently published some ta-
bles which make it easier for her to
count the Galleries" as well as the cost
of the food she buys. She can use
such tables without knowing anything
more about calOries, just as she can
use electric light without understand
Ing the kilowatt hours that appear in
the monthly bill; but calories are
neither so mysterious nor so compli-
GATED that she can not easily under
stand what they are.
The word calOrie comes from
"calor" a word meaning heated. A
calorie is a unit for measuring guam
titles of heat just as a yard is a unit
for measuring length or a pound for
weight. Roughly, calorie equals the
amount of heat required to raise the
temperature of a pound of water 4 de-
grees Fahrenheit.
But this is not the whole story
What we call heat and what we call
energy are really different forms OF
the same force. The heat OF the sun,
the strength of the winds, the warmth
from the fire, the pressure of the eX-
panding steam or exploding gas in the
engine. even the flowing of sap in the
plant and the contraction of the mus
cles in our bodles-all these are due to
the same universal energy showing IT.
self in different ways. Coal is made
up Of substances held together by this
same energy, and so Is gasoline or any
other kind Of fuel. When the fuel Is
burned, the energy is set free in the
form of heat which in its turn may be-
come the force that drives the ma
chine. In this last form we call 1t
mechanical energy, and we know that
a given amount Of heat will yield an
equivalent amount of mechanical ener-
gy. Thus our calorie may represent
either enough heat to raise the tenn
perature of one pound of water de-
grees F. or enough mechanical force to
lift one ton about one foot and a half.
Now, food is fuel for our bodies and
energy stored in it can be released in
the body and used for keeping 1t warm
or for the work of the muscles, much
the way as gasoline is released and
used when the gas is consumed in the
motor. The more we exercise our
muscles the more mechanical energy
we release and the more must be pro-
vided by our food fuel. In order to
make sure that we are stocking our
body engine rightly, we must be able
to say both how much energy our food
yields (called its fuel or energy value)

for we can measure both food energy

Choosing Cheap Fuel.
Body-fuel, like other kinds Of fuel,
costs money, and the problea. is TO get
the amount needed for the smallest
sum possible, which means choosing
food rather carefully. 4 man running
a sawmill in the cypress swamps of
Louisiana or the Michigan woods
would have to pay a lot of Iaoney for
enough anthracite coal 10. run his
steam engine, but he can take his fuel
from the sawdust heap and the slab
pile and so save money.
Much the same situation exists with
regard to the fuel for the human en-
CINE. If our family of five bought its
10 100-calorie portions all in sirloin
steak Mt 81 cents Il pound, the cost
would he Sc dag. If it bought them
all in white potatoes at $50 Il bushel,
the cost would be only $1.20 a day.
