Soule, College of Agriculture Our bodies are rather complicated machines and require quite a variety of foods in order to keep them work ing most efficiently. There is, of course, a constant attrition going on in the body, waste material being pro du' d and eliminated, and hence there must be an intake of certain essential elements in order to keep the machine in thorough repair and capable of doing efficient work. To this end, three classes of food are necessary to the proper nutrition of the human body. The first of these is the class of food which builds muscles and tis sues and so keep the body together. In addition, there is a great class of food taken into the body which is chiefly useful for the production of energy. It provides the surplus of power which enables us to walk, to think and to work, and is represented by what is known as the fats and carbohydrates. There has been a tendency in our country to consume more foods of the muscle and tissue-building character in proportion to our needs than of any other class. Probably we have neg lected the fruits and vegetables in the human dietary’ more than any other form of food. We are also asked to conserve wheat as completely as possible. Wheat is valuable for the protein it provides, hut, after all, it is largely a carrier of carbohydrates, especially when used as wh'te flour as is the common practice in this country. The question of the elimination of wheat from the dietary, therefore, brings up the prob lem as to whether this can be done cheaply and satisfactorily. In order to determine the relative value of different kinds of food it is necessary to develop a measure of energy. To this end the term calorie is used. This represents the amount of heat required to raise the temper ature of a liter of water one degree. Applying these figures to the cereals it appears that whole wheat, for instance, will yield per ounce 16.1 calories of protein, 5-1 cal ories of fat, and 83.8 calories of car bohydrates. We do not use whole wheat flour, however, to any appre ciable extent. Hence these figures are misleading. The white flour we ordi narily do consume contains per ounce only about 9.2 calories of protein, 3.7 calories of fat and 89.1 calories of carbohydrates. Corn meal, on the oth er hand, contains 10.7 calories of pro tein, 5.1 calories of fat and 87.9 calo ries of carbohydrates. Observe, there fore, that the corn meal contains more protein and fat, but a little less car bohydrates than the wheat flour. The German Methods of Frightfulness. New York. —A German offens ive of terror against the civilian population of France and Italy was described today by Henry P Davison on his return from a 12, 100 mile tour of iasoecti >n of Rf' Dross work abro id. “The outstanding feature o German methods at the : -••• sen time,” be said, “is the effort to terrorize women, children and old men at home. While the German troops are making their drive or i the front airplanes are bombing, nearly every night, towns hehin the lines, with the deliberate am declared purpose of terrorizh civilians and breaking down th morale to such a point that the' will importune their governments for peace. It is the most dastard ly, unrighteous, cruel, devilish plan which could be conceived. Thousands of Innocents Maimed. It is hasrd upon the theory that the killing of four children out of five will induce the mother to im plore her government to have the j war stopped that her fifth child ; may live. It is carried on from English channel to the Swiss bor der and from the Swiss border to ! the Adriatic and has resulted in the maiming of thousands of wo men and children and driving of hundreds of thousands of terror stricken from their homes. “AH of this is accompanied by j the most active possible propa ganda, especially in Italy.” Mr. Davison regards the bomb ing of Paris by big guns as part of the offensive of terror, and says ■otal number of calories in an ounce, for instance, of wheat flour as ordi narily used, is 102; in the case of corn meal, 103.7. The number of calories of carbohydrates in wheat flour is equivalent to that in corn meal, and vice versa. In other words, it makes no differ ence from what source the particular element needed in the nutrition of the body is derived provided the di gestion and assimilation of these ele ments be accomplished with equal fa cility. These facts make it clear, therefore, that corn meal can be used as a substitute for wheat Hour "with out injury to the population consum ing the same. They would, in no sense, be less well nourished or fed by eating corn meal in place of wheat flour. As for rye flour, it contains 102.1 calories per ounce and is practically equivalent to wheat flour. It does not make the white bread to which we are accustomed, and because of its color and flavor is not regarded with favor by our people who through the relative abundance of wheat in this country and the cheapness of white flour have become fastidious as to the use of bread. Rye flour has been ex tensively used in Europe for many years, and it is certainly a wholesome and desirable food product. Oat meal, on the* other hand, contains a much larger number of calories of protein and fat per ounce than wheat flour, corn meal or rye. There are 116.8 calories in an ounce of oat meal, and it is, therefore, the most nourishing and desirable of all the cereals avail and desirable of all the cereals avail able for use as bread substitutes we have in this country. As a matter of fact, our people would be better off and more economically fed if we con sumed much larger quantities of oat meal or oat products. These facts are presented for the information and advice of our readers, in order that they may be intelligently informed of the relative merits of wheat Hour and other substitutes which may be used therefor. This in formation should convey to them the fact that corn meal, rye flour, oat meal and other cereal substitutes ad vised for use under present conditions can be used with safety and in large quantities for indefinite periods of time without inju k»us results, and that iiie human body can be as well nourished and maintained through their consumption as by confining our dietary, as has been our custom 1 so generally in the na»t, to the use of trend made exclusively from wheat SIOO Reward, SIOO The riad,-TS of this paper will be pleased to ir.-av n lhal there'is at least one dreaded disease that, science has been able to cure in ail its stages, anil that is catarrh.
