Livlug Entirely on Meat.
Dr. T. YV. Greene, writing to an English
journal from Montevideo, says tbat fresh
meat forms tho staple article of diet in a
part of the province of Buenos Ayres,
where he lived for four years. Vegetables
and fruit were unknown except "for one
month in tbe autumn, bread could not be
bad, and biscuits and farina, a meal made
from niandicca, were too expensive for the
poor. Tho population live entirely on
meat, and c rink nothing but tbo mate do
verba, a bitter Land of herb, containing
the some active principle as tea and coffee.
It is not uncommon for a man to eat four
or five pounds of meat at a meal; but Dr.
Greene thinks it contr.in3 less fibrin and
albumen, and more salts and water, than
English meat, lie never knew a case of
scurvy, or anything like It, during tbo
four years ha practiced amongst ts ia;
tab; very fast. Wo muat
might starve at times."
