WHEAT BREAD ITALY'S
MOST IMPORTANT NEED
Three Weeks Tour Convinces Red Cross
of This-0ne Pound Per Day
Ration Diminished

Rome, Dec. l9.--Wheat bread is tn,
most important need of Italy's civilian
population, according to the report OF
the committee on refugees of the Amer
lean Red Cross, made by Ernest P. Bick,
nell, director general of civilian relief
Professor Edward T. Devine and Captain
Paul L. Kellogg, who have just com
pleted three weeks tour of towns and
cities throughout Italy.
Half million persons, mostly women
and children, refugees from the invaded
districts, had diminished the already
meagre bread allowance of one pound
per person per day which constitutes the
normal ration of the ordinary popula-
ton.
The committee has secured a contri-
button of 100000 lire for the aid of the
population of Venice, 10000 of whom are
being removed to Rimini and other
points. 1t is probable that the entire
population will be removed, owing to
the difficulty of bringing in supplies and
because there is no longer employment
for workmen. Venice already is so
greatly depopulated that on the night
Captain Kellogg was there he found him
self the only person walking on the
Piazza of st. Mark.

time, Listens to His
Critics
BABST WARNED OF
SUGAR SHORTAGE
AS Far Back as May Last
He Tried to Shop
boarding

| Washington, Dec. l0.--Food Admins
traitor Hoover yesterday made anothe
Intellectual attempt to be heard at thu
Senate investigation.
Chairman Reed said that while h
wished to treat Mr.. Hoover with al
courtesy, he saw no reason why wit
nesses waiting to testify should be dis
placed at this time.
Sugar men saw the danger of a short.
age early last spring because of stories
of fictitious famine and later when
they began to realize the large amounts
being sent abroad, Earl A. Babst, presi-
dent of the American Sugar Refining
company, testified.
Babst said that in May he warned
Food Administrator Hoover that famine
stories circulated in February and March
would have serious effect, and again in
June predicted to Mr.. Hoover a shortage
this fall because so much sugar was be-
ing sent abroad.
Babst pointed out that his company
advertised extensively during the sum
mer that there was no prospect of a
shortage if people would not hoard, and
added that his company took only two
foreign orders after June rs. These, he
said, were filled at the earnest plea of
the British royal commission that some
sugar was needed there. The total
shipped abroad this year, he testified,
was $4,000 tons.

Eight Rules for Eating.

In recent address, L. +. Breithut
professor of food chemistry of the Col
lege of the City OF New York, explained
how potatoes can be made the basis of a
balanced ration. He said that all the
requisites necessary for wholesome nu-
triton during a period of "a hours are
| to be found in the following: Potatoes
two pounds; butter or other fat, one
third of a pound; graham bread, one
pound; apples, one and one-half pounds
and milk, one pint. Potatoes, he said
contain protein of the highest grade and
yield an alkaline which has solvent pow
er over uric acid.
The professor declared that expert
ments have shown that oleomargarine
made from beef fats, especially that
part of it made as cleo oil, is complete
" adequate substitute for butter fat,
Vegetable oils, nut oils and lard, he said,
are not adequate substitutes, especially
when viewed from the standpoint of the
chemistry of growth.
Professor Beithut gave the following
eight rules for saving and safety, which
embody the recommendations of Profess
sor Graham Lusk of the Cornell medical
school of the Russell Sage Institute of
Pathology:
81. Let no family tof five personsr
buy meat until it has bought three
quarts of milk, the cheapest protein
food
- Save the cream and butter and
eat oleomargarine and vegetable oils.
Olive oil or cottonseed oil taken with
cabbage, lettuce or beet tops is excellent
food, in many ways initiating milk.
80. Eat more sparingly, rich or poor,
laborer and indolent alike. Meat does
not increase the muscular power, When
a person is exposed TO great cold meat
may be recommended, for it warns the
body more than other food. In hot |
weather. for the same reason, it causes |
sweating and discomfort. In
general, twice as much meat is used as is
needed.
81. Eat corn bread 1t saved our
New England ancestors from starvation.
If we eat il we can send wheat to France.
Eat oatmeal.
-. Drink no alcohol In many fam
lies 10 per cent of the income is spent
Tor drink, or sum which, if spent for
,ther food. would greatly improve the
welfare of the family.
20. Eat syrup on cereals or on corn
bread. 1t will spare the sugar. Eat
.aisins in rice pudding, for raisins CON
ain sugar.
-. Eat fresh fish.
IS Eat fruit and vegetables 4-Bos-

War Time Poultry Keeping.

| Keeping hens has come to be patriot
ic duty. The world is facing famine in
meat, and millions of people across the
water are looking to America for their
food supply. One way in which the
women of this country can help to win
the war is to raise more poultry, and to
handle their flocks with greater skill.
Unfortunately, the abnormally high
prices charged for grain during the past
year have caused many poultry keepers
to sell off large number of their hens.
Probably there are fewer chickens in the
country to-day than for many years
past The result is certain to be con
tinuation of the high prices for eggs and
other poultry products Grain will be
cheaper. and there is every promise that
the profits from poultry keeping will be
greater in the next few years than ever
before. To take up poultry keeping,
therefore, is like buying Liberty bond
you help your country and make a good
investment at the same time.
There will be heavy demand this
spring for Matching eggs, and day
chicks. Poultry keepers who have good
stock can add much to their income by
catering to this trade. Later there will
be call for rooster chickens& because
by the middle of the coming summer the
big stock of poultry in cold storage will
have been greatly depleted. Then the
results of the failure of poultry keepers
throughout the country to raise the
usual number of hires last season will be
felt The woman, therefore, who is in a
position to keep flock of hens can add
not a little to her income by beginning
her seasons work early.-ln Woman's
World for January.
