Excerpt from Dietary Studies at the University of Missouri in 1895, and Data Relating to Bread and Meat Consumption in MissouriIn carrying out the provisions of the act above cited, representative localities have been selected in different parts of the country in order that definite information regarding the food supply and consumption of people living under different conditions might be Obtained. The University of Missouri, at Columbia, mo., offered many facilities for dietary work. It has well-equipped laboratories, and the department Of chemistry was under the direction Of Professor Gibson, one Of the best authorities on dietary work in America. It was the original intention to make a somewhat extended series Of investigations, but the work which was begun by Professor Gibson was interrupted by his untimely death in October, 1895. Comments on these investigations made by Professor Atwater and Mr. Woods, and appended to Professor 'gibson's report herewith, indicate the value of the Missouri dietary investigations when taken in connection with those carried on elsewhere.Professor Gibson's report and the accompanying comments by the special agents Of this Department are respectfully submitted, with the recommendation that they be published as Bulletin no. 31 Of this Office.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
