Washington January 8 In vlcrw ot the
slnlcmcnts which havo gained wide tr
ibulation regarding tlio nutritive value of
merlcan canned meals tending to Injuto
taielgn and domestic trado In these goods
Secretary Wilson has called upon the di-
rector of tho offlco of experiment atatlotis
for a statement of lho conclusions of tbe
tspcrts cm lho matter. TWa statement in
part Is aa follows:
Tho high nutritive value of American
canned meats has been established repeat-
edly by thorough arid! Impartial teals con-
ducted by experts.
Soma years ago Dr. W. O. Atwater
professor ot chemistry at tho Weatcrn nnl
vcrmy began an extended 'investigation of
tho nutritive quality of foods biter this
nlft naa wuu"u wj wv . "" v
agtlcultuio with funds appropriated by
ronerces for ih ournose. tho Investigation
being assigned to tho offlco ct expcnnitnt
slut ons' amil rrof Atwaicra services .se-
cured as special agent in charge. These
Investigations ore allll In progress and 'a
largo amc-unt of Information has been se-
cured and tho results published In the form
tf bulletins' Educational philanthropic and
other .ns.tltuilons throughout tio country
navo cc-operatu in inn wok.
Itiv food problem has been very carefully
studied In Kurope. Koenlg llubner Ettu-
ger Stutwr Giutlcr iraaibender SolnUer
and othtr cmlnona authorities have mado
auch Investigations In France Germany
Itiusln and other European countr.es. The
valuo of different foods lor men engaged
in ordinary occupatlcuw for soldiers lu
tlmo3 of peace and war nnd persons In
various olhtir conditions of life hai been
ctudlcd A. part of those lnvat.gatlon3 In
Amorloa and nbrcad has hall1 to do with
meats fresh and preserved.
In communication to this department
Prof. Atwatcr fays: It is unfortunate that
the public at large have so little knowisdge
of tho nutritive aluo of canned meals.
Thoy nro really cooked meats divested 'of
the Inedlblti port ons bono grUtlc clc
which arq found In frcsb meats. In tho
cooking nnd canning wlhlch Is of the na-
ture ot boiling rather than mailing water
Is expelled but tho amount of nutritive
material remaved Is ve.ry small Indeed so
that a pound ot ordinary canned meat his
on tho average much moro nutriment than
the same weight of tho fresh meat from
which It Is prepared.
Thei removal ot dhe bene and part of the
water while so ilttlo nutriment is taken
away leaves tho meat in a less bulky and
more concentrated form so-that pound tor
p:tind tho canuoi meat h3 a higher nutri-
tive valusi than the frash meat.
A largo number of analyses of fresh and
caunod meats collected at Ch cago during
tbo World's Fair and In other rarts ot the
country beftro and since that time and by
analysis at my dlroctlon the proportions of
th nutritive ingredients In the canned
meats havo been found to bo larger than
In tho ordinary fresh meats.
la tho great stock yards in Chicago Kan-
pas City and elsewhere where nearly all
ot thei canned meaUis put up all tho meat
la Inspected on tho hpof and at tho time
of slaughtering by goyornment exports
who are en the ground all the time and
wiltbcut whose examination not an animal
Is killed aiiyl no shlpmonl ot meat can bo
made without volatton of aovefnnient !..
illations. This Is iie guarantee for the
quality ot Uho moat whether fresh nr
canned.
