" .? i ? J ? $ | \ i L J?U ? i * y -2roocl Aimhiistratioa Oi^nes Policy to Meet P^pcraU Food Sitiuiiiis-. r The National Food Administration is "anxious to impress the message of conservation to the utmost. The peoiple of the country at large do not apsprec'ate the demand for wheat. The a Food Administration at Washington jhas stressed the situation in this nation wide proclamation: "If we are to furnish the allies with ue necessary proportion 01 wnwi maintain their war bread from now until the next harvest, and this is a military necessity, we must reduce our monthly consumption to twentyione million bushels a month as against jour normal consumption of about torjt'y-twb million bushels or fifty per cent of our normal consumption, reserving J a margin for distribution to the army ahd for special cases, leaves for general consumption approximately one 1 and ;one-half pounds of wheat products ' weekly per' person.' Many of otir cusitomers are dependent upon bakers' bread. such bread must be durable; end therefore requires a larger preportion of wheat -product! than cereals 1m IVA" V* A%fW ^VMICU m tuc Buuiiouviu< \/iu ?i ac; mW haVy 'require* * full allowance. The toll to do in our population can ntkt greater sacrifices in the eon tmption of wheat products thin can 4b .jibor. To effect the needed'ri&TSBfs'Otf wheat, we ire wholly deepad' ant upon the voluntary assistance of ,tS[e, American people, and we do at* I that the following rules be observed: ^jhrst.' householders to use not to 1 exceed a total of one' and one-half guilds per week of wheat products per persomThls means not more than one and three-fourths pounds of Vid&ry bread containing the required percentage of substitutes and about one-half pqund of cooking flour, macaroni', crackers, pastry, pies, cakeswheat breakfast -cereals all com tote*. ' "w Second, public eating bouses and dubs to observe two wheatless days por week, Monday and Wednesday, as at present. In addition thereto not to serve in the aggregate total of more breadstuffs, macaroni, crackers, pastry, pies, cakes, wheat breakfast cereals, containing a total of more than two ounces of wheat flour to any one guest at any -one meal. No wheat products to be served unless especially ordered. Public eating establishments not to buy more than six pounds of wheat products per month per guest thus conforming with limitations requested of the householders. "Third, retailers to sell not more than one-eighth of a barrel of flour to toy town customer at any one time and not more than one-quarter of a barrel to any country customer at any onetime, and in no case to sell wheat products without sale of an equal weight of other cereals. j . fourth, we ask the bakers and grocers to reduce the volume of Victory breed sold; by delivery of the threequarter oound loaf where one pound i wii" sold heretofore," and corresponding proportions In ^ther'welghts.' We alsov ask bakers hot to increase the amount of their wheat flour'j&fchste St t>#yohd seventy pet' ?eht; hfthe j^erkge monthly amount tto^chised tn; & four months prior to Marie? flrti. "Fifth, manufacturer using vwhfcitt products for non-fobd purposes should' eefhse such use enWel^/ri ; "Sixth, there is no limit upon the use of other cereals, flours, and-'mealfe, corn, barley, buckwheat; potato flour/ etc. Many thousand families throughout the land are now using no wheat products whatever, except a; very small amount for cooking purposes and are doing so in perfect health and satisfaction. There is no reason why jail of the American people who are ; able to cook in their own households i cannot aunsist perrecuy wen wicn ibq use of less wheat products than one |and one-half pounds a week. USE MORE IRISH POTATOES ;lse Order That They Will Not Overlap New Crop. Columbia.?South Carolina can help vprr tv<Uy now in the conservation c!" wheat by using Irish potatoes. ;Thc :<r iu'-e people report to the foci -??:ot that there tmuill! a: i<jli ci ^ ~? _ ijr? uausai 1 ifjiiE'itirs of excellent Irtsh potatoes on hand in this state for immediate use. It is important that these Irish potatoes be used so that they will not overlap into the new crop, and because they are the best available substitute for whoat. Potatoes are universely liked. The food administration has been assured that Irish potatoes can be bought at very reasoralTe p:1ces from all local markets ape jf they cannot be had food administrator at Columbia wouict lb* please dto be advised so that any deficient narket can bo supplied. Potatoes are an acceptable substitute for bread. A pound of baked potatoes is equal in nutritive value to 3even ounces of bread, ' "se the perishable potato as a wheat and as a ?~'o-Swtt?te. In the present food 'crisis all cereals are precious; they Kill keep and the potatoes won't.
