A number of Christchurch doctors interviewed by a representative of the Press, agreed in tho conviction that New Zealanders eat too much meat. A great many people take it threo times a day. The general opinion expressed by tbe doctors was that people would be all the better for eating meat only twice, or oven onco a day. Excessive tea-drinking was also condemned. A greater medical authority than tho Christchurch doctors has given the world scientific proof that meat threo times a day is essential to perfect health ; and that it is the excess of cereals, vegetable and fruit that does all tho mischief. Apparently, the Christchurch doctors do not know tho works of Dr. Salisbury, of New York, and are by no means up-to-date on the diet question.
