In carl nib yd rates, the German ration contains 4.1 1 pounds, as compared to pounds fur the standard ra tion. In total calories, the Ger man ration aggregates 10..M2, ns compared to ii.ow) in the stand- am ration. The standard ration is regarded sufficient onlv for a iierson in' a sedentary occupation, or one in-; volviug slight physical lalwr; and' vet it provides 2. times as much liodv-buildinff nrotein. and near-' y twice as much fat. and nearly IU times as much carbohydrates' as the German ration. In the' ration for northern France, the substitution of bacon and lard makes the weekly allow ance of protein equal only three fourths of the German ration, and only one-third of the standard ra tion. On the whole it may be said that for a person in an occupation requiring only n moderate degreo of activity, these rations provide considerably less than the amount requisite to maintain bodily health and vigor.
