cVefr day.
Simple? Yes. But its the answer to
the problem; and it is in the hands of
women.
The secretary of agriculture recently
stated that the experts in his department
estimated the food waste in this country as
reaching the enormous total in value of
S700,000,000.
Think of it! Nearly thrce-quarcrs of
a billion dollars worth of food wasted in
year!
There are a hundred million people in
this country-about 2Q00O,oO0 families.
The food waste averages about $35
family. This probably is uptUard of
10 per cent of the food purchased or
groWn by the average family.
"Of course. the waste in families of
very limited means is slight" says the secre-
tary. 'but in the families of moderate and
ample means the waste is considerable. As
nation we seem to have disdain of econ
omizing. In many homes there is a strong
feeling that il is only decent to provide more
food than will be eaten and that it is de-
meaning TO reckon closely"
Now. we know that is true don't we? If
we will be perfectly honest with ourselves

what the secretary says comes mighty close

How simple il is!

We had been walking around and
around the food-problem, looking up at it,
measuring the size of it, humping our heads
against the hardness of it, and almost
despairing of solving it.
Experts and authorities were working
at ii. Increased production, they said.
Backyard gardens: intensive cultivation;
cooperation in the use of vacant land
These were practical and valuable sug
gestions, and we took them up feverishly.
And still the problem was not solved!
America faced the fact that with the ut
most possible production, her own tremen-
dous consumption would leave surplus
about as useful in the emergency as shot
gun at Vimy ridge.
And right then the big idea was born.
Our own tremendous consumption
How much do we really consume-and
how much do we waste?
Who can control the waste?

MAY BRING WESTERN
LIVE STOCK INTO
EsCAMB|A COUNTY

If enough farmers in Escambia
county join in the movement, q carload
of Western live stock will be brought
to this county according to Farm
Demonstration Agent C. A. Fulford,
who stated yesterday that already
many farmers have given orders for
part of the shipment.
The transfer of cattle from the
West into the central and southern
states is being urged by the Depart
ment of Agriculture in the plan for
food conservation, and increase of
supply. A committee of 100 men, some
of the most prominent in the country,
was recently named by President Will
son to supervise the work, and it Is
expected that great results will be
accomplished.
The joint commission of food con-
servation and the Department Of
Agriculture has issued the following
state on the situation:

One of the incidents of the Euro
pean war has been the slaughter OF
large numbers of animals and it is
estimated that already the herds OF
Europe have been diminished by 28,-
100000 cattle, 54,O0O,0OO sheep and
| 100000 hogs. An accelerated in
crease in this diminution of meat ami
mails must take place in Europe from
month to month as long as the war

Especially should the energies OF
the farmer be directed to increasing
the sheep stock of the country. Cloth
