How Much to Eat. An American
so'dicr ha daily given him 22 ounces
f broad, 12 ounce of poik or bac.in,
r 20 ouncs of fresh or salt be"f, 16
oun es of potatoes threotuueaa week,
16 ounces of rice, wiih 16 ounces of
coffee. 2 04 ounces of sugar, 6.4 of a
gill of bean , .32 of a gdl f vinegar
and 9.10 of a gill of fcait. As to the
qu int.ty of this fond, it is la'ger and
mTe abundant than would peem at
sigh' 1 1 be necessary, but the. liberality
in f. od hint this geat advantage: That,
in time of hum work, the fa igud of the
indiviluil is dimmUhei and the pow
cr of recuperation s'Hsib!y increae.
The t tal quantity, the-, prnvided for
a s-'ldier of the United Stntes army s
lamer than is consumed by the general
woik'ngman Of couise, vatious con
ditions of life, climate and locality have
something to do wiih tho quantity of
food. Thu an idle person cm get
a'ong very w ll with 20 ounces of ni
t'ouenous food (fle.-h aid cereal vee
t ible food) when, if the same individu
al were walkinn. or in active ou'doi r
lite, double thia. quantity might be us
ed. Perhaps the Esquimaux represent
the heaviest feedeai in the wot Id, for
