THE SAVING OF FOOD.

To the People of South Carolina:
I desire to appeal to the people
Of South Carolina to lay down for
themselves certain definite and spe-
cific days on which we will save
flour, meat, sugar, and fats.
Our National Government has
come to US asking for the perform
ance of a specific duty. We are
asked to save meat, flour, sugar,
and fats.
I urge our people to adopt the
following program:
To use no beef, pork, or mutton
on Tuesdays. On basis of 7 oun-
ces per person, this will save about
100000 pounds of beef, pork and
mutton per week, or save enough
meat to feed all of the South Caro-
lima soldiers in the army.
To use no wheat on Wednesdays.
This will save about two million
dollars a year, and would supply
our South Carolina soldiers in the
army. America uses now one hum
dred million barrels of flour. This
must be cut down to seventy-fve
million barrels.
To use no hog meat on Thursdays.
This will save about 100000 ponnds
or enough bacon and ham to feed
our South Carolina soldiers in the
army.
To use no cake or sweet desserts
on at least two days in each week.
We can use poultry, fish, and veg
etables. We can have them in abun-
dance if we will raise them.
We should save fats by broiling,
boiling, and baking instead of fry
ing. No family is asked to stint,
but to save and avoid extravaganza
and waste. Elaborate meals should
not be permitted.
Use no beef, pork, or mutton on
Tuesdays, no wheat on Wednes-
days, and no hog meat on Thurs
days.
The saving of food is a war
measure.
If our army is to be fed we must
meet the very reasonable demands
of the Food Administration.
The sacrifice asked at our tables
is a small one compared to the price
our soldiers stand ready to pay in
blood. Remember the women and
Of France have not tasted
