CHEESE AS FOOD.
AN ILLUSTRATION OF ITS VALUE. The value of ciieeso as a food is of importance to tho commercial side of the cheese industry,, as has been shown on a previous occacioninTiiii Dominion. Writing of cheese as a food, a Canadian agricultural paper says:— "The groat majority of consumers are inclined to look upon cheese as a luxury only to bo used along with other food to mako it mow palatable. Experiments recently carried on by Secretary Wilson, of the United States Department of Agriculture, prove that cheese can bo used as a sole article of diet, and that it is a healthy and economic food. As a result of theso-experiments, Secretary Wilson claims that cheese should bo more of a staple article on the table, and that one pound of it is equal to two pounds of fresh mc<it. "University students who were the subjects of these experiments lived for some time on checso and bananas, eating from one-half to one'pound a day of the former. Tho" results showed that the students so exocrimented on were just as healthy and able for their work as those eating an ordinary ration in tho college dining hall'."
