What think the laborers of New Zealand of .the following extract from a Home paper!—will perhaps surprise some people that there are still agricultural villages where the laborers do not taste { a bit ,of butcher’s meat from one year’s r endTbHn6tli«';T.’"' One such villa;;* is High Roding, in Essex, f, one may judge icomi t -i interesting I-,-; • -cr in the Ouafdian. L is commonly so ipoaed that by the-time beef-tea has bee.i made out of a piece; of meat all the ‘ goodness ’ has gone and the residue is generally sold by the London hospitals at a ridiculously low price-to feed pigs. In fact, however, the extrnqtipn of the beef-tea only removes' such of the goodness as is soluble in water, and the residue, although ‘ insipid, and not remarkably digestible,’ is still ‘redlly nutritious.’ Most people, by the way, have probably eaten something of the ; kind in the shape of bouilli, which is a standing dish at small French inns. However, this 1 residue of beef is highly appreciated'down in Essex, and the first of the'laborers who tasted it exclaimed, ‘Ah, if I had some of this every day it would make, a new man of me.’ The vicar lisa .now. obtained large consignments- of fit from the hospitals, and it is eagerly’.bought by the villagers at a price sufficient: to repay the prime charge and the cost of carriage. ” What proportion of onr agricultural population, one wonders, would be equally glad to get this husk firmest which has hitherto been feeding pigs..
