Pres. Wilson's cabinet has struck

The first requisite is u strict
adherence to vegetable diet. You
do not need meat, anyway. 1t
simply creates fatty degeneration
and apoplexy-when you get your
bill.
Vegetable food is much better
Take acorns. for instance. Our
experiments with gulena pigs and
squirrels have proven conclusively
that there is more nourishment in
a single acorn than in anything
else--unless it's two acorns. An
acorn COSTS nothing. You simply
take basket and stroll forth until
you find u noble oak, where you
can gather enough of the nutritious
little pellets to last all winter.
Then you can vary this diet with
sawdust mullins. Sawdust is also
cheap. Any lumber yard will let
you have enough to start bakery.
Black walnut sawdust is preferable
to slippery-elm as it will give you
more stamina, although perhaps
not so palatable as the latter. In
eating sawdust pastry you may
find that the fibre clogs up your
eriglottis, but don't let this bother
you, for remember how much
money you are saving.
And of course, you must have
fuel. Perhaps u neighbor has
