‘NEW* SYSTEM RULES FEEDING Calories for European Children Closely Calculated. Our sweet girl graduate of the cooking school, our calorie-minded dietitian, has found her prototype among the famine-stricken nations of eastern and central Europe. She is the “Nem-lady,” or scientific kitchen manager, who must see to It that absolute accuracy of quality and quantity shall prevail in every portion served to every undernourished child admitted to the public feeding stations maintained by the American Rei lief Administration European Children's , Fund. Provldnlg three and a half million children with a maximum of calories at a minimum of cost is not a task to be taken lightly, Herbert Hoover, chairman of the fund, believes. Accordingly the operation of the kitchen has been worked ■ out to the nth degree of scientific nicety. A pamphlet says: “The "nem" system of scientific rationing has been worked out by Dr. Clemens von Plrquet, formerly of the

staff of Johns Hopkins and now head of the department of children’s diseases in the University of Vienna, especially for the American Relief Administration child-feeding program. This system takes as metric basis, the average nourishing value of one gram of milk, this basis value being known a. the ‘nem’ from nutrition element milk. All foodstuffs are then compared in their caloric value with the milk standard, 1,000 ‘nem’ considered as the uniform measure for the meal of a school child. “The children’s menus are composed of the commonest American dishes and are different for every day of the week. For Instance, Monday's menu may be composed or rice with condensed milk and a slice of bread; on Tuesday, American baked beaus and bread may be given; on Wednesday, fleckerel, or needles, with milk and sugar; on Thursday, brosefleckerl, or noodles sprlnWed with bread crumbs; Friday, a vegetable soup with slice of bread. But the most popular dish among the children, is that served practically every Saturday, cake and cocoa. “Each slice of bread is weighed and every portion of rice or beans is served from a scoop the exact capacity of which has been recorded. Each day a whole mean Is taken from one of the large

kitchens and analyzed chemically to make sure that the children do not fall below their calorie allowance.” WARNS AGAINST TREE DOCTORS* Park Service Bulletin Advises Cautious Selection. The public was warned by the special service of the city park department today to beware of so-called “tree doctors” who advertise marvelous cures for tree and shrub diseases. A bulletin said: An endless number of so-called “cures” for the control of insects and diseases that infest trees and shrubs has been brought to the attention or the public. Whenever there is an outbreak of a disease or Insect pests these so-called “tree doctors” get in their work and do considerable damage before the unsuspecting public realizes their incompetence, and before they can be apprehended and stopped by the department. These men go about broadcasting information that they have a preparation that can be diluted with water and poured about the roots or some substance that can be In-
