1,O13,692.61
State Institutions.

The reports of the various state in
stitutions for the month discuss the
manner in which the recommends
tions of the federal food administra-
ton are being followed. At the in
dustrial school at Vermont there are
regularly three meatless days a week
and some weeks they have four meat
less days. AS substitutes for meat
fish is used on two days, vegetables
the third day and occasionally mac
aroni on the fourth day. For two
weeks previous to the $3.50 order
and ever since, the school has been
using the other cereals in substitu-
ton for wheat to the extent of 5000.
For one whole week corn bread was
the only bread served. The use OF
sugar has been curtailed so that only
about tWO-thirds Of the amount form
erly used is now being consumed.
At the state hospital the consump-
ton of wheat flour has been reduced
to about 500 of what it was before
the use of substitutes was COM
menced. To quote the report of the
superintendent: THE National Food
Administr ation has asked for bread
containing 204o cereals other than
wheat. We have found in our ex-
periments that using ordinary white
hominy feed we can use as high as
$3.50 and still get very satisfactory
bread This bread is palatable, Of
good texture and nutritious" The
consumption of wheat flour is also re-
duced by the use of oat products,
graham, rye flour, corn meal and
buckwheat flour. There has been
saving in sugar of 1900 pounds a
month.
At the school for feeble-minded at
Brandon the children have been hav-
ing 13 wheat1ess and II meatless
meals a week, which is compensated
by the much more extensive use of
milk of which the institution has
large quantity. The consumption of
sugar has been reduced to two pounds
per person per month.
The problem of conservation at the
state prison and house Of correction
most of the inmates are performing
manual labor, and thus require plenty
of substantial food. At the state pris-
on in bread making $50 of white
flour is used. For breakfast and sup
pers other breads than wheat bread
are used so that the consumption of
white -four is not over 500 of the
normal consumption in the past. Dur
ing the last three months the average
consumption of sugar for 200 persons
has been 364 pounds of granulated and
1874 pounds of brown sugar per month,
an average of 21s pounds per person
per month of brown and graduated
combined.
For some time bread had been the
main item Of food at the house Of cor
1ection and consequently substitu-
ton has been difficult. However
since the federal order an attempt to
comply with the $3.50 basis has been
made although because of a shortage
of cereals for the substitutes the per-
centage has not been axactly reached
as yet. Sugar has been practically
eliminated from the diet of the in
mates.

ASKS LYNDEN WOMEN
FOR HOSPITAL LINEN
Red Cross Appeals For Supplies For
Hospitals OF France; Will Hold A
Tag Sale Saturday

This is Linen Shower Week for
the French hospitals, and the wom-
en- of the Lynden district are being
asked by the Red Cross to donate a
small part of. their linens for use
in war work.
Sheets, handkerchiefs, napkins and
bath and hand towels are desired, as
the French hospitals are in great
need of linens of all kinds. The Red
Cross requests that new linens be not
purchased for this purpose, but that
the women of Lynden donate one or
two articles from their own supply.
If each woman would give but a
single article Lynden would make a
splendid record. The articles may be
left at Red Cross headquarters in the
Masonic Hall.
On Saturday, a tag day will be held
throughout the county for the ben
eft of the linen fund, and with the
cash returns, new articles will be
purchased.
