MEAT AND BREAD.
TW»,M,.y ,'f. ■ I (To the^Editor.) k&j-^eir^' eVe'rV jssue of la& of the daily j»ap>r3 his .some reference to the c^fst'of 'meat and bread. Those who hive lived in New Zealand, and particularly in. New , Plymouth, any length of time, ' find it hard to reconcile themselves to the present ruling prices. Regarding meat, as to whether it is an actual necessity people differ. lam one of thbse*wTto have always thought that,* as a rule/ we eat altogether too much meat. lam borne, out m; my, opinion in a telegraph- message from $I>w .York,. , in :your« issue ,of Thursday,, where it 1 states that excess pf is ifae cause of cancer, , People who follow the newspapers will have noticed tin the medical columns, that nearly always they refer to meat-eating and warn people against the too liberal use of meat. Now that this article of dietary is becoming a luxury, in a manner of speaking/ people, should embrace this opportunity , pf^p'rovihg for themselves whether it 'is" a necesity or not, and will find it a fitting opportunity, at the present excessive prices, to make the experiment. As for bread, if housewives were to bake their owft bread and mix it with good wholesome wheatmeal, they would hot 'only save their purses, but have something to eat that would giv^e them bone and muscle, which is more than can be said of the flour now in general use wisi all the nutriment ground but of it.-M[ ami. etc., ' " : I \ . . , FOR 'HEALTH.
