United States Food Administration What You Are Asked lo Do For Your Country The men of the Allied Nations are fighting;; they mo nut on the farms. The production of l?-o?l by these countries has therefore b en greatly reduced. Even before the war it was much less than the amount consumed. The difference came from America an I a few other countries. Now this? difference is greater than ever and at the same time, but little food can be brought from the outside except from America. Therefore, our Allies depend on America for food as they have never depended before, and they ask us for it with a right which they have never had 1 cfore. Tor today they are our companions In the great war for democracy and liberty. They are doing the fighting, the suffering, and dying?in our war. why Wi: MUST SEND MORE WHEAT.?England. Franc*-, Italy and Belgium, taken together, import in peace time 40 per cent of their breadstuffs. But now, with their reduction in harvest, they must import 00 per cent. We must increase our normal ex? po, t surplus of SS,000,000- bushels to 22 \000,000 bushels. It can be done but In one way: by economizing; and substituting. The people of the Allies can not substitute corn alone for bread a*; we can. They are using other cereals added to wheat Hour to make war bread, and can thus use up to 2't per cent, of corn for wheat. We have.plenty of corn to .send them, nit, except In Italy, WhOSS people normally use it, our Allies have few corn mill3, and corn meal is not durable enough to be shippf d by us in targe quantities. Moreover, the Allied peoples do not make their bread at home; it Is all made in bakeries, and corn bread cannot be distributed from bakeries. There is but one way: we must reduce our us-e for wheat. We use now an average of five pounds of wheat per per? son per week. The whole problem can be met if we will substi? tute one pound of corn or other cereal flour for one pound of wheat flour weekly per person; that is, if we reduce our consump? tion of wheat flour from five pounds a week to four pounds a week. WHY WE MUST SEND MORE MEAT.?The food animals of the Allies have decreased by :>o,000,000 head since the war began; thus the source of their meat production is decreasing. At the same time, the needs of their soldiers at 1 war workers have in? creased the necessary meat consumption Our meat exports to our Allies are now already almost three times what they were before the war. The needs of the Allies will steadily increase. bOCagM their ?>wn production of food animals w 11 steadily decrease be caust <?f lack of feed for them. If we will save one ounce of meat per person per day we can send our AU es what they need. why WE mi"ST send butter AND MILK.?The decreasing lo r ds and the lack of fodder mean a steady falling off in the dairy products of our Allies. They have been asking for (arger tnd larger exports from us. East year we Rent them three times as much butter and almost ten times as much condense,i milk as we USCd to sind them before tho war. Yet we must not only (COOP up to this level, but do still better. \VII\ WE MUST SEND BUOAR.?Before the war France, Rely ami Belgium produced as much sugar as they used, while Rngll ml drew most of its supply from what are now enemy countries. Prance and Italy are producing less than they need, while Rngland is cut off from the source of 7.r? per ce it. of her Usual import:?. These three Allied countries must now draw 2,00#,ttt pounds more of sugar than they did before the war from the same sources from Which we draw our supplies. We must divide with them. Ws can do it by economizing. The u.uiai American consumption per person Is just double that of France. LJET i s REMEMBER.?Let us remember thai every Hag that dies opposite the German Isby proxy th< American nag, and thai the armies fighting in our defense undei these iia?:s cannot be maintained through this winter unless there is food enough for them and their women and children at home. There can only be food enough it America provides it. Am America can only pro? vide it by the personal service and patriotic cooperation of all of us. The small dady service in substitution ?an be done by all; the saving In waste by the ma jority, ami the lessening of food consumed by many. This individual dally service in 20,000,0041 kitchens and on 20,000,000 tables multiplied by 100,000,000, which is the sum of all or us. will make the total quantity which is the solution of the problem.
