Distribution of Vitamines in Foodstuffs. — The table here 

 given shows the distribution of vitamines in the chief foods. 

 The relative values of the foodstuffs are indicated by positive 

 and negative signs. With increased relative value more than 

 one positive sign is employed; a zero indicates the absence of 

 the factor. Absence of a sign does not, however, indicate the 

 absence of the factor.

The facts discovered so far are principally concerned with 

 the causes producing diseases in animals, but there can be no 

 question that further investigations will disclose that vitamines 

 may play a part in the production of animal products (such as 

 meat and milk) for economic purposes generally.
