HOW TO BEAT HIGH PRICES

Here is the best way to get results
for your money, in buying at present
wartime prices The health depart
ment has issued these statistics to
aid the consumer.
Spend from one-fourth to one-third
of your food money for bread, cereals
macaroni and rice.
Buy at least from one-third to one
half a quart of milk day for each
member of the family.
Spend as much for vegetables and
fruits together as you do for milk. II
you use one-half quart of milk for
each member of the family (this may
not always be possible), then spend
as much for vegetables and fruit as
one-half quart of milk day would
amount to.
Spend no more for meat and eggs
than for vegetables and fruits. Meat
and eggs may be decreased with less
harm than any of the other foods men
toned. The amount spent for meat
may decrease as the amount spent for
milk increases.
