PEOPLE WILL ESI ISM ffikll H EATING
CORN, RYE AND GATS INSTEAD Gi WHEAT
Dr. Andrew M. 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
