CONSERVATION TO
BE INTENSIFIED
I Food Administration Outlines
Policy to Meet Desperate
Food Situation.
Tli? National Pood Administration is ;
anxious to Impress the message of i
conservation to ibc*. utmost. The poo- i
plo of the country^ larg^ do >v>t UP" 1
predate the demand for vVh?uit TUo |
Food Administration at AVnshingtou |
has stressed the situation in this na |
tion wide proclamation:
"If wo are to furnish the allies with
the juec,es*ar> proportion of wheat to j
maintain tholr war broad from now j
until the next harvest, and this Is *
military necessity, wo must reduce
our monthly consumption to twenty
ono million bushels u month us against
our normal consumption of about for
ty two million bushels or fifty per cent
of our normal consumption, reserving
a margin for distribution to the army
and for special cases, leaves for fcen
oral consumption approximately one
and onu-half pounds of wheat products ,
weekly per person. Many of our cus
tomers are dependent upon bakers
bread, such bread must be durablo,
and therefore requires a larger pro
portion. of wheat products than cereals
baked In the household. Our array
and navy requires a full allowance, i
Tho well to do In our population can
make greater sacrifices in the con
sumption of whsat products than can
the poor. To effect the needed sav
ings of wheat, we are wholly deepnd
ent upon the voluntary assistance of
the American people, and we do ask
that the following rules be observed:
"First, householders to use not to
exceed a total of one and one-half
pounds per week of wheat products
per person. This means not more than
one and Ibree-fourths pounds at Vic
tory broad containing the required
percentage of substitutes and about
one-half pound of cooking flour, maca
roni, crackers, pastry, pies, cakes, j
wheat breakfast cereals all com
bined. * i
"Second, public eating houses and
clubs to observe two wheailoss days
per week, Monday and Wednesday, as
at present. In addition thereto not to
serve in the aggregate total of more
broadstuffs. macaroni, crackers, pas
try. pies, cakes, wheat breakfast ce
reals, containing a total of more than
two ounces of wheat flonr to any one j
meet at any one meal. No wheat j
products to be served unless espe
cially ordered. Public eating estab
lishments not to b?flr more than six
pounds of wheat products per month
per guest thus oonforming with lim
itations requested of the house
holders.
"Third, retailers te sell aot mere
than one-eifbth of a barrel of flour to
any town customer at any one time
and not more than one-quarter of a
barrel to any country customer at any
on* time, and in no case to sell wheat
products without, safe of an equal
weight of other cereals.
"Fourth, we ask the bakers and fro
c?rs to reducs the volume of Victory
bread sold, by delivery of the tfcree
quarter pound loaf where one pound
nvs sold heretofore, and correspond
ing; proportions In other weights. We
also ask bakers not te Increase the
amount of their wheat flour purchas-.
ed beyond seventy per cent of the
average monthly amount purchased in
the four months prior to March first.
"Fifth, manufacturers using wheat
products for non-food purposes should
cease such use entirely.
"Sixth, there Is no limit upon tiie
use of other cereals, flours, and meals,
corn, barley, buckwheat, potato flour,
etc. Many thousand families through
out the land are now usihg no wheat
products whatever, except - a very
small amount for cooking purposes
and are doing wo In perfect health and
satisfaction. There Is no reason why
all of the American people who are
able to cook in their own households
cannot subsist perfectly well with The
use ojf lees wheat products tfca>f one
and one-half pounds a/week.
USE MORE IRISH POTATOES
In Order That They Will Not Over
lap New Crop.
Columbia ? South Carolina. can help
very materially now in the conserva
tion of wheat by using Irish potatoos
The produce people report to fha food
administration at Columbia that there
are unusual quantities of excellent
Irish potatoes on hand in this state
for immediate use.
It is important that thesa Irish pota
toes be used so that they will not over
lap into the new crop, and because
they are the beet available substitute
for wheat.
Potatoes are universally liked. The
food administration has been a*?ure4
that Irish potatoes can be bought at
very reasonable prices from all local
markets, and if they cannot be had the
food administrator at Columbia would
b? please dto be advised so that any
deficient market can be supplied.
Potatoes are ao acceptable substi
tute for bread A pound of baked
potatoes Is equal In nutritive value to
seven ounce# of 4read Use the per
lahable potato aa a wheat and as a
>iiiai safest pute. Tn the present feed
eriaia all cereals era precious; they
