Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Until recent years little or no attention has been paid by most people to matters of food and diet; the first serious agita tion in this country does not date beyond the memory of those who read this.
