Coffee as a Food Beverage By SIR JAMES CRICHTON-BROWN, M. D.. F. R.S., Hon. G. G.I. I call Coffee an aliment, for the old notion that it is not food but merely a stimulant must now be discarded." No doubt stimulation is the primary and most important physiological action of Coffee, but it is also a nutriment, although not a rich one, an accessory food making other food more available." It quickens the- circulation of the blood, and thus ridding the muscles of waste products, increases their energy, and at the same time diminishes the sense of fatigue." Anyone who has watched the effects of a cup of hot Coffee on a tired or exhausted man, in rapidly restoring his vital energy, must realise how invaluable Coffee must be at this time to our Munition workers at home and to our Soldiers in the field." Born in Abysinia, Cradled in Arabia, Schooled in Batavia, Coffee has everywhere conferred exhilaration and buoyancy without any succeeding depression or collapse When you buy a pound of our PURE GROUND COFFEE, you get 24 more cups than from ordinary Coffees.

THE LIGHTING PROBLEM.
THE LIGHTING PROBLEM. The public, which has a vivid recollection of the troubles and inconveniences suffered owing to darkened streets last winter, will expect the Haverfordwest Gas Committee to present without delay a tolerable lighting scheme to the Chief Constable for his approval. People coming to Haverfordwest from London last winter declared that the capital of the Empire had better lighted streets than this town, situated as we are in a remote corner and not exposed to any menace from the air or the sea. Compared to the stygian darkness of JSaverfordwesf, Cardiff was a brilliantly lighted city. The Town Council must do their best to see that Haverford west is not again made a bye- word with visitors and the general public.3 Indeed, having reg-ird to the quality of the gas supplied to the public it is difficult to see the necessity of any lighting regula- tions whatsoever. For instance Alderman Thomns told the Town Council yesterday that his gas supply was so poor that ho could only read by bringing out candles to reinforce tho power of the gas illuminant. His experience is common to scores of others in the town. It is a wretched com- mentary on the inefficient management of the gas undertaking. Financially that undertaking is beginning to bo seriously embarrassed. In our opinion the gas committee and the Town Council have never pursued a progressive policy in this department of municipal activity. They have fixed the price of gas at a prohibitive figure, regardless of the experience of Milford, which found economic salvation in cheap gas. The result is that the oil lamp, instead of being supplanted by gas, has come into favour again. This, we have no doubt, is quite satisfactory to the gas com- mittee. They will be happy when the rush- light is again installed. Again no dis- crimination has been made between gas supplied as an illumillant and for power purposes, with the result that many firms have found it more economical to put in oil engines. The Town Council are riow calling in an expert to advise them. We shall await his report with considerable interest.

NEYLAND COUNCIL. BAKERS WARNED. The monthly meeting of the Neyland Urban District Council was held on Monday evening at the Council Chamber, when there were present Mr. J. V. Harries (in the chair), Messrs. G. Roach, T. Phillips, S. Davies, J. I Skone. and W. E. Evans, with the clerk (Mr. Stanley Williams), and the surveyor and in- .specter (Mr. T. W. Evans). THOSE SEED POTATOES AGAIN. Once again the Council discussed the ques- tion of the price of the seed potatoes supplied to the Council through the County War Agri- cultural Committee. At previous meetings of the Council Mr. Harries had alleged that the Council were charged 2s. per bag more for the potatoes than they should have been. Ex- planations were received from the Board of Agriculture and the Secretary of the Agri- cultural Committee, but the Council were not satisfied, and at their last meeting a resolu- tion was passed asking the County War Agri- cultural Committee to refund a sum of £8. I As soon as the minutes had been read Mr. Roach asked if any answer had been received from the Board of Agriculture concerning the price of the seed potatoes. If there was no answer lie considered that it was not very satisfactory. A lot of the people who bought the potatoes had been complaining. It was only right that they should know whether the Board of Agriculture had treated the Council with contempt or not. The Clerk said that he did not write to the Board of Agriculture at the last meeting, but he had written as instructed to the County War Agricultural Committee. He had received no reply from Mr. James to his application for a refund. The Chairman: How long is it he has had the letter in his possession? The Clerk: I wrote on August 14th. The Chairman: Well, we will get a reply, whether from him or somebody else. We don't want to talk a great deal. If he doesn't see the point we will ask Mr. John Bull to ad- vise us as to our legal poffition. (Laughter). I have been thinking we are likely to get a reply even if it has to be brought to the House of Commons to obtain it. The letter was written to the Secretary of the War Agri- cultural Committee on August 14th. Here it is September 3rd, and we have not received a reply. It seems something uncanny. I reckon everybody who purchased a bag of potatoes from the Council had to pay an addi- tional 2s. per cwt. I may be wrong, but I decline to believe that the quotation given us originally had any reference to the railway carriage. I think the War Agricultural Com- mittee have had sufficient grace. I think we should write to the Board of Agriculture again and ask them to take up the matter on our behalf. MI". Roach said that he bought potatoes and was satisfied, as was everybody else, as he thought the price was very reasonable. But finding that they were asked to pay more than they should they were complaining. The Chairman: Will you move that we write to the Board of Agriculture, with a view to having the additional charge refunded to us? Mr. Roach: Certainly I will. Mr. Skone said that they had had a reply from the War Agricultural Committee which lie considered was satisfactory. The Chairman retorted that Mr. Skone was not so interested as some of them. He would second the resolution. This was then put to the Council, and carried. RECENT FLOODS. The Surveyor, M his report, stated that dur- ing the recent heavy rains the channels had proved insufficient to carry off the storm water, with the result that the cellars of a number of houses in High Street had been flooded, He recommended certain works should be undertaken to prevent flooding in future. The Council discussed the matter of raising the pavement at one place, and eventually agreed to have alterations carried out at an estimated cost of a. THE HOUSING PROBLEM. The Inspector, in his report, stated that there were -595 houses in the urban district, 530 under JE12 assessable value, 58 between Z12 and ZM, and seven over £20. No new houses had been built since 1911, and none had been demolished since that year. There were, however, four houses which had been temporarily closed with the consent of the owners, pending necessary repairs being carried out. The number of vacant houses in the district was six. The Inspector also re- poited upon a number of houses which re- quired repairs to roofs, floors, etc., and asked tor instructions to serve notices upon the owners to have the repairs carried out. The Public Health Committee, in their re- port, recommended that the notices be issued as suggested by the Inspector, alsp that they be asked for a reply as to their willingness to do the work, and give approximately the time they would require to carry it out. Upon the proposition of Mr. Skone the re- port was adoDted. A WARNING TO BAKERS. A letter was read from, the Mintstry of Food enclosing a letter which had been sent to them, from which it appeared that the Bread Order of 1917 was contravened within the area of the Council, and pointing out that the local authorities were responsible tor the carrying out of the provisions of the Bread Order. The letter enclosed was from Mr. E. Ferguson, and was written from the A.O.C. Depot, Pembroke Dock, dated August 12th. It read: "Dear Sir,— Will you please inform me whether your de- partment has a representative in South Wales, and, if so, his address. The reason I ask is because I desire to call attention to the fact that in Neyland, where I live, thero appears to be an utter disregard to the regulations with regard to the sale of bread. Bakers are daily delivering bread which is still warm, and has evidently only been out of the oven an hour or two. The Public Health Committee recommended that a letter be sent to all the bakers inform- ing them of the complaint received from the Ministry of Food, and asking them to adhere to the terms of the Bread Order. Mr. Skone thought that they should add that the authority would prosecute if there were any further contraventions of the Order. He knew that for the last month or six weeks new bread had been delivered. The excuse was that when bread had been baked twelve hours it lost in weight. That was the reason why they delivered fresh bread. The Chairman: You add that clause to the report ? Mr. Skone: I do. The Chairman said that he would like to point out that the Bread Order had never been sent to the Council. They knew that certain orders had been made by the Ministry of Food, and there was no doubt that it was the proper thing to send them this complaint. Nevertheless the Council had not had a copy of the Order referred to, and so the Ministry of Food were themselves negligent. Although they saw in the papers from time to time that local Iwxlics had received certain powers, the Council had not liad any information that they were responsible. He suggested that a reply should be sent to the Ministry of Food inform- ing them of this, and asking for a copy of the Order. As they had never had the Order he did not think they could be looked upon as having neglected their duty. He thought there was negligence by the Ministry of Food in not sending out the Order to the local authorities. Mr. Roach remarked that when people saw it in the papers, they would think there had been neglect by the Neyland Council, and it was not just that they should have the fault when they were innocent. Mr. W. E. Evans agreed with Mr. Skone, that it was not enough to send a letter asking the bakers to adhere to the Order. He was not so sure that it was the Council's business to take the matter up. The Order said that bread must not be SOLD less than twelve hours' old. He had been under the idea that it was the duty of the police to enforce the Order, and that now it would come under the Food Control Committee. These people had contra- vened the Order. They might argue perhaps that it was more economical. That was neither here nor there. The letter which the Council had now received said that they must not do it. IT was up to the Council to tell these people that the next offence would be dealt with by a prosecution. It seemed to him that the duty of the Council was not to ask the bakers to adhere to the regulations, but to enforce the law. People who infringed the law must be prosecuted, and the sooner it was understood the better. He seconded Mr. Skone's proposition. The resolution was carried, and the Chair- man added that he had been under the im- pression that it was the duty of the police to enforce these Orders with regard to food.
