This is about 12 million tons more than average pre-war exports, or near ly two tons apiece for the average American farm where moot of this food originates. | Rdgid conservation of food and feed stored In granaries, cribs, barns and similar buildings-also products now in the fields-are essential to properly maintain our ow? population and to meet lucre-ed foreign needs. Ast in al feeds, though in a crude form, must be considered as food, sine? they are the baste for meat, milk and poultry products. The vast quantity of food stuffs stored on farms makes opportunities for saving them correspondingly large. Following are common source? et food losses with suggestion* for re ducing them: !
