CJolumbta,.?"Householders are no* under any circumstances to buy more Lhan one and one-cuarter pounds of clear beef weekly (or one and ono-half pounds including the bone) per person in the household," says Herbert Hoover. federal food administrator ia a telegram to William Elliott, food administrator for South Carolina, announcing new regulations concerninec the consumption of meats. The demands for beet tor our army and the allied armies and their civil population for this summer are beyond our present surplus," Mr. Hoover's telegram continues. "On the other hand, we have enough increased supply of pork this summer to permit economical expansion te its use. It will, therefore, be a direct service to our armies and the allies if our people would, in some degree, substitute fresh pork, bacon, ham and sausage for beef products." The Food Administration, in view of the demands for beef for the army and the allies, has now reached the point where it must request all hotels and restaurants not to place on their bill* of fare or serve boiled beef for mora than two meals per week, and beefsteak for not more than two meals per week. Eoast beef is also limited to one meal & week. SfLOS TO HELP WW THE WAR. Build silos and help defeat the German submarines now attacking supply ships. England and France are face to face with a serious shortage | of feeds. Horses and cows are g to be placed on rations in En*- S land. This means that America will g be called upon to supply the I allied countries with more meats. Silos are the best means of conserving our stock feeds. Now Is the time to build them. The ^ size of the silo should deepnd upon the number of cattle to be fed. The cow or steer during the winter feeding period coi> sumes about four tons of silage. From this it is easy to determine how large to make the 1 silo. WOMAN'S REAL PART IN WAR ACTIVITY First Place Given to Food Conservation and Food Production in Appeal to Women of the Country from QffL eial Washington. ' \ . * '7 AIf I Columbia.?A special appeal to the women of the country is made by offij cial Washington, through the Food Administration, and emphasis is laid upon the fact that women have never 1 before been called upon to bear so ; *reat a burden as the coming months | wiH impose upon their courage and their constancy, j Woman's part in all war activities is primarily food production and food conservation. "The women of America must see to it," says the authoritative statement. "that the nation's producing powor is not enfeebled by the draft made upon it to strengthen the fight ing power. "They must produce fod by working gard&as, by raising chickens, by doing farm' service where they can op by helping a-fid encouraging those who 4o it. They must aid in the kitchen, conserving food- by wise economies, canning, drying.\ preserving, pickling and preparing fod in acordance with the Food Administration's program. They must purchase where they see the Food Administration's emblem, watch their local dealers, buy local produce in preference to shipped goecb; and resist the temptation to hoard. "America is today rationing the world. Without our food supplies the Allies could not fight for us. They are suffering privations. The food that we save for them is net a saving of money. It is a saving of life. It is worth more than its weight in gol." ookiiwc mbwbw0wm?wwwwmwwbk m um | EAT PERISHABLE FOODS.
