Why You Are Asked
to SdUe These Foods

THERE are only a few foods the
l. Government is asking you to con-
serve to help win the war. They are
WHEAT MEAT
FATS and SUGAR
You are asked to save these things
because
The world supply of them is
short and our European Allies
must have them from us or go
hungry at home and at the front
and lose heart in the fight against
Kaiserism.
These foods are compact.
Therefore we can ship more of
them in our limited supply of
ships than we could do of any
thing else.
They possess high nutritive
value; much more than other foods.
You are asked to save these
foods to help the Allies win the
war.
THIS is FOOD CONSERVATION
WEEK. Get behind the Govern
ment!

has been first nature for her TO leave
the -four sitter on the mixing board and
to use as much flour as she pleased.
And now the day of beef and -four and
