PRESIDENT APPEALS TO women TO
. AVOID Loss OF PERISHABLE FOOD

/ Two points made by President viii
son in his letter are particularly i'm
portant:
Every bushel Of potatoes properly
stored, every pound Of vegetables
properly put by for future use, every
jar Of fruit preserved, add that much
TO our insurance of victory, add that
much to hasten the end OF this con,
flict. To win we must have maxi.
mum efficiency in all directions. We
cannot win without complete and ef.
fective concentration of all our eff.
forts.
I'VE must aim to consume these
things locally so far as possible and
thus relieve the pressure on tlans-
portation agencies, freeing them for
the more efficient handling of prod
ucts required for military purposes.
What we can not presently consume
We must conserve"
All Asked TO Help
The particular vegetables that have
been raised IN home yard gardens in
cities and rural communities, as well
as by farmers, and which are threat
ening vast waste from their abund-
ance are: Tomatoes, beets, potatoes,
beans, cabbage, onions, sugar, corn,
peas, carrots. The fruits are:
Peaches, pears, apples, and In some
Of the states blackberries.
The resources of the government
with the volunteer help OF neighbors
to each other, schools, clubs, COVER.
nors, and the press, win be put be-
hind this intensive effort for three
weeks, and longer In certain states
where required. In the simplest de-
tail the housewife and "Mother-and-
Daughter Clubs" everywhere will be
told haw they may render this most
patriotic service in their homes. They
are to be asked first to put by food
for their own consumption, and, sec.
ond, to devise the best methods Of
marketing their surplus products To-
cally.
Owing to the shortage in the sup
ply Of tin containers, most Of the pre-
serving and canning win have to be
done In glass jars, of which 100000
gross, Of the Mason jar type, have.
been distributed through the manu-
facturers for the present seasons
needs. The total manufacturing ca
pacity Of this type Of jar, which will
be increased by the manufacturers as
Is approximately 5000 gross
per day, or $4,000, 900 jars during the
next hundred days.
