On the reverse side Of the card is
a statement signed by Herbert Hoover,

addressed 10 the housewives.
Il calls attention 10 the fact that
the food situation IN EurVpe Is far

Ery Of the food supply OF IN" world
for tins year was made. that there Is
abundance OF fOUdstuTs for the cOun-

We must not overlook the fact taht
Russia collapsed not because OF the
Germans upon her borders but largely
because of the failure to organize and
feed her own citizens, and. il we are
TO emerge victorious from this war, we
cannot risk the collapse of another Of
our allies from this same cause. There
is no waste of food among our allies
there is the most drastic reduction in
their consumption; there is actual
privation among their women and chill
drcn; there is starvation in Belgium" !"

Importance of Oiling

More damage can be done to ma
chine in hall an hour through lac Of
oil or grease on some bearings than
by whole seasons exposure t. the
weather, the specialists declare. For
this sort of neglect there can b. no
excuse, ii is said. Operating q ma
chine without fabrication, espec.ally
when the bearings are slightly rusty,
will quickly result in the wearing
away of the metal, often to a cons der
able depth, in a very few minutes.
Expensive bTeakages, as well as SER
ious delays, also may be caused by
operating machines on which nuts
have worked loose or have come of
entirely, allowing bolts to loosen OF
drop out.
All practicable steps should be tax
en- to preserve machinery now on
hand. Needless exposure to the
weather should be avoided, and in
cases where it is not practicable to
house machinery when idle, all bear
ings should receive thorough appli-
cation of heavy oil or grease to keep
out moisture and prevent rust. 1t is
believed that on many farms mach
inery could be more adequately shell
tered in the buildings available by ex-
ercising care in placing them so as to
economize space.

Human food stufs comprise three
principal elements.
Protein: Mainly present in meat,
beans, fish, poultry, milk and to some
extent in grains.
Fats: That is, butter, cream, lard,
bacon. margarine, cooking fats, beans,
cotton seed oil and other vegetable
oils.
Carbohydrates: Grains, sugar, po-
tatoeS and other vegetables.
As a nation We eat and waste 80 per
cent more protein than we require to
maintain health. Therefore, we can
reduce the amount Of meat we eat
without harm.
We eat and waste 240 per cent more
fat than is necessary.
Of the carbohydrates we can just as
well consume corn, oats and other
cereals as wheat and we have abund-
ant supplies of potatoes and veget-
ablcs.
Do not limit your supplies of milk
and table butter, but consume it all
Don't waste any.
