CHINESE FOOD TESTED.
Prof. JnfT}i Mnking Experiments for
tlic Government.
From the San Fran isco Call.
Prof M. E. Jaffa, of e University of
California, is living like e white man
again. For three week? Prof. Jaffa
tried the diet of John Chinamnn. Col
lege professors are seldom gourmand-,
but there are not many of them who
would voluntarily infli- t their palate.3 :
with Chinese fare.
Prof Jaffa has charge of the experi- j
ment station of California. The object j
*'* tri-se -tations. wn: :i r:,e Deportment
of Agriculture at Washington, has es
tablished throughout * United States, |
is to gei data on the various food mate
rials and their nutritive and economic
value. The reports submitted by the ex
perts are published at Washington in
bulletin form and are then sent broadcast
to college* and dietary students.
Last year the food ex|**-rte; met in Son
Francisco. Few of our visitors leave us
without carrying away some souvenir of
Chinatown—from a chopstick to a kimo
no. These gentlemen, whose business
it is to analyze, weigh arid compare the
food of mankind, were more interested in
th*- food shops of Chinatown than the joe
houses. The curious roots queer-looking
vegetables and seeds fascinated them
more than the tumtum of the Chinese
theater or the tinkle of the cups in the
tea house.
It has always been a cepled df true
that the Chinese are largely vegetarian
in their diet, and this apparently without
serious detriment *o their physical de
velopment. Evidently their vegetables
ar e the equivalent of the materials that
make up our own vegetable dietary and
presumably possess an inrrinsic value for
such a purpose.
The vhalting food experts were much in
terested in the Chinese il.-t. The result
that the authorities at Washington
ordered a report on the Chinese vegetable
foods which was forthwith prepared by
-^ r Walter C. Blasdale. *n instructor of
chemistry at the University of California.
This report gives th*- analysis of the prin
cipal Chlneee vegetables found in the j
Chinese quarter.
A description and analysis of the Chi
nese vegetables by no means covers the
ground of the Chinese diet. So Prof
Jaffa prepared to make a study of the
food of the three ciasaes of Chinese—the
professional man, the man doing average
labor, and the man doing hard labor.
A Chinese dentist was elected as the
prof< ssional man. and he was instructed
how to weigh and tabulate every ounce
of fco l consumed at his tdble. A Chinese*
lau r dr} man was taken as the type of
the aver; g manual laborer and a Chinese
git dener as the hard worker.
Sam Lung ar.d Charlie Hop were the
gentlemen who played mine host to the
assistant professor of agriculture of the
State Univers ty. F’rrf Jaffa was fre
quency ac( ompanifd hv T. J. Snow, who
h*-li s him in his dietarv experiments. The
< hir.aman objected to th*~ professor mak
ing the experiments, hut he persisted.
Charley Hop runs a large vegetable gar
den in Berkeley and rhe vegetable* find
their way to many a professor’s table.
But why a professor should want to come
to his tabl? was roo much for Charley’s
“sahe.”
Ih n Prof. Jaffa solved the problem. In
th - classic halls of learning at Berkeley
s me Walt r Fong, a graduate of Stan
ford 1 nivfr iy, and now doing post
graduate w | k at Berkeley. Mr. Fong has
adopted American clothes, taken an
American wife and is imbibing all the
knowledge that our two un versities offer
lo the sttl lent Jn mining engineering. For
all that he has parted with his, Mr. Fong
comes fr m the land ef pigtails.
So Mr. Fong w-nt to Sam I.ung and
Charley He p and successfully pleaded t{i
pr.fessor s cause Th y were convinced
that college professors a-e outside the
P-le of "whl e devi's,” and that It Is not
necessary to hum punk after their exits
and entrances.
It was easy to initiate the Chinese den
tist into the mysteries of tabulating his
diet, hut Sam Hung and ( harley Hop
needed someone -t their e’howa to see
that it was properly dene. Fcr unless the
el *ta is abs ent ly o rrect any conclusions
drawn therefrom would he valueless. Mr.
Fong having given them the “open se
same. •’ Prof. Jaffa, a-slsted ty Mr. Snow,
began his wrrk.
Afltr th first few days the Chinamen
got used to having e ther Prof. Jaffa or
Mr Snow with them at meal time The
"Meliran men” we e there to tabulate the
f ll*. hut after a day or two they were
a keel to si a e it, and. according to both
gentlemen, same of the Chinese dishes
Wire so tempting that they did not need
urging.
Both Sam Lung nnd Charl-y Hop. once
they understood the matter, were inter
ested in 'he exp riment anil as careful
j us P of. JafT t I hat the nightly dietary ao
ooi nt should lie p rfectly correct. Char
i ley Hop. th. Chile e gardener, confessed
that when tir.st broached on the subject
of havirg an on -ider watch his meals he
thought it a< a sotnme of the tax col
lector to tax tbi m for all food consumed
over a certain fixed amount. "My men all
cat heap hlg.--I always give them heap
lli ty, so I much inlaid,” he exclaimed.
When convinced that the tax collector
bad nothing to do w th It Charley took a
most intelligent inter st in the proceed
lnr*.
The lontM has such an Amp Danish
larder that it prove? very li:tle reK.v-.lln*
the Chin* sc diet. Following- is a list of
the food materials used by the Lund y
tnen and gardeners during three we k*.
Many of them sound strange to the Cau
casian ear. and taste stranger yet to his
palaie:
Lean pork and beef were the only in .ns
Used; the Other articles were -fish, shrimp.*,
fresh and dried; canned squid, abal me
fr* sh and dried; 1* an cheese, bran
sprouts, vermicelli, rite, native <-abbage,
dried lily flowers, lotus roots, potatoes,
Chinese radish, taio roots, water chest
nuts. dried fungus, algae ii and bamboo
shoots. In addition they consumed a small
quantity of bread. bu*ter and sugar nnd
large, quantities of t a.
Many of these articles need expl.r a
tion.fThc water chf.-tnut* cow wild in
China and are sweet, juicy ar.d res. m D
the chestnut In flavor. Taro ro't has
about the consistency cf a sweet potato,
is very popular among the Chlneje, and
a number of white people he e. who have
tasted them in Chinatown, use them at
their own tables.
Several species cf fungi are used in the
Chinese dietary, the most I'oputor ne be
ing yellow In color, except the top. which
is brown or purple. Two othfr sp elts of
fungi are sold ;** delicacies, retaili g . s
high as 82 i.t pound. Algae is also larg -
ly used. It looks like tangled mans.v o'
horsehair, but when boiled f rms n aela
ilnous mass that is used for thickening
purpot.es, especially with dried ebrlmpe.
The *acrei locus has many naes am n*

and medical remedy to an article of food
In San Francisco the Chinese us* the
roots for the of a klnl o’.

raw as we eat salad.
Lily leaves are considered a delicacy
and are greatly relished.
The young shoots of tarob*o or? el*'*
considered very palatable end are either
pickled in brine or cannei.
Prof. Jaffa is now at work coupling
the data and making deductiar.e there
from. As soon as he has finished the ma

PIGEON!* FOR TRAP SHOOTING.
Where the Birds tome From That
Supply the New York Cluhs.
From the Country Gemleman-
To some the idea of raising pigeona for ,
trap-shooting seems a little cruel, and
some Investigation of the subject has been
made by those interested in the protec
tion of animals and birds; but the fact
is there is nothing in the business to shock
:he most sensitive any more than raising
poultry for the market. The pigeons that
are shoe at the traps are simply plucked
immediately afterward and wold on the
market. This instead of injuring the
trade of those who make a business of
racing pigeons for a living, really helps
:( No one atrempts to raise pigeons tor
market directly. The profit comes ehieflv
.n the squabs, and the old pigeon* or*
merely disposed of finally when they g**.
rather too old- for breeding purposes.
These pigeons put on the market would
bring very little, because they are old
and tough, and the meat they furnish Is
hardly goo) eating. Nevertheless, they
make excellent birds for the traps. They
are strong of wind and their flight is oft
entimes more powerful end rapid than
that of younger bird.*. There is conse
quently a demand for such birds from
trap-shooting clubs.
A word or two about the needs and de
mands of these clubs should be of in
terest to those engaged in raising pig
eons and squabs for market, for their
onsumption Is so large to-day that they
form one of the leading factors in the
market. The trap-shooting eeason begin?
in early fall and extend#* well through
the entire winter, and during nearly all
the winter holidays thousands of pig
eons are shot from the traps. In and
around New York, all the way from 20.-
000 to 50,000 pigeons are shot In traps
every season. On extra occasions when
large mutches are arranged. 25.000 bird*
will he needed In one week. The question
of obtaining this number of birds at one
time is often a difficult one to solve. For
merly it was impossible to do it, hut to
day marketmen and special breeders have
come #o the city from different parts of
the country, and hold them for the trai>-
shooting clubs. Some marketmen carry
large consignments along for weeks, just
to supply such a sudden demand. They
n ive the dates of the different tourneys,
and they keep in direct touch with the
clubs. But this system hardly works sat
isfactorily. and special "breeder.* of trap
pigeons have gone into the business. On
Ixmg Island there are several farmers
wiio make a specialty of this They
raise thousands of pigeons for the trap
shooters, and they are ready at any mo
ment to supply a club’s demand for one.
two. three, or 10,000 birds. Immense wire
enclosures keep these pigeons within re
stricted arrwe. They have to be fed suf
ficiently to make them strong and able
flyers. The trap-shooting clubs demand
above all things else fast ond active
birds. Sluggish and slow flyers are not
wanted. In the great cages where they
ore raised for the clubs, the birds are ex
ercised every day by a man entering the
, enclosure and snapping a huge whip. The
crack of this frightens the birds so that
they fly around In great flocks. This
morning and evening exercise is consider
ed necessary for the proper development
of wing power.
Asa rule, young pigeons are in demand,
WHY HE CURES.
Dr. Hatlinnay Tells Why He Treats
Chronic Diseases So Success
fully—He lias a Word to Say
About Those Who Cling
to Old-Time, W orth
less Methods.
I am often asked why it Is that I cure
a greater proportion of caoes than do oth
er physicians.
I will endeavor to answer this question
JSEJ\ manner through
the newspaper
tfk t for the benefit
Jr of the general
K my brother phy
know what is
J.Newton HathawayM. D,, n for my no
cess: I Imve made It a rule, since
the time when I entered college, to
make a study of one class of diseases at
a time and to perfect a treatment for that
class before 1 took up another; and be
sides this I have limited my practice ex
clusively to chronic disenses.
But there are certain'diseases which can
not be successfully treated by them
selves alone; the diseased condition of one
organ or part of the body will surely in
time communicate Itself to some other or
gan or portion of Ihe body. Hence, the
specialist who is best able to treat dis
eases of a chronic nature Is he who Is fa
miliar with the diseased conditions which
are liable to become seated In all parts
of the body.
It Is not sufficient to alone treat the
manifestation of the disease; It Is neces
sary lo go deeper and be able to cure the
underlying cause.
Chronic Ulneanea Specially.
Having confined my specialty to chronic
diseases, which act and react on each oth
er. and having had the privilege of seeing
and treating and curing all the different
forms and slages of these diseases, if I
am lo be accredited with even common
natural ability, 1 ought to-day to be sue
cessful beyond those whose opportunities
have been so much less.
I doubt if any other physician In the
world has treated so many cases, along my
special lilies. OL 1 have. I have been
treating these diseases continuously for 20
years, day in and day out. I make no
boast of this; I simply state a fact that
none can dispute.
Constantly l.enrnlug.
Another thing which I have done: I
have tried to leatn something new' every
day about the diseases which I treat and
about remedies which would beat reach
and cure these diseases. I am sorry to say
that most doctors moke up their minds
when they graduate from a medical col
lege that they know all that can be known
about medicine, and they go on In Ihla
way until the end, with a. longer recoid
of failures than of cures.
>ew nnrl Exclusive Methods.
Many things about disease and Its treat
mer.t w hich I learned in the colleges from
which l graduated have been of very great
help to me In my practice since, but every
method of treatment which I use to-dhy
for the different diseases which I treat
and every combination of remedies, |< of
my own discovery. I long ago threw old
methods aside: I long ago discovered that
ever yc-aee must be specially studied and
specially treated.
This, briefly, has ben the chief cause of
my success and Is the reason why to day
I can so confidently promise cures lo my
patients.
