The very large amount of nutriment in proportion to bulk, together with the small percentage of water and oil (see chart) renders beans and peas among the very best foods for storage, and particularly adapts them for use upon long voyages. That the}" are highly nutritious is shown by the large amount of proteid they contain. This, however, is found to be of a sort resembling the proteid of cheese; and is not so easily digestible as that found in cereals. 35. Earth-vegetables we shall find to be a convenient numerals being added to distinguish them. Thus in the above refer- ence to the pictures of kidnev-bean,.
