Fishback should have the hearty

SEVEN lOAvES OF BREAD
FOR EVERY PERSON IN
U. S. SAVED FROM WASTE
Farmers and Threshermen Patrlotl-
eaIiy Respond to Call Of Food
Administration.

From information received By the
U. s. Food Administration from the
principal grain growing states, 1t 10
now possible to announce with fair &C
curacy the amount Of wheat saved last
harvest by improved methods Of han
ding. According to official calcula-
lions, efforts toward cleaner threshing
saved fully 10000. 900 bushels Of wheat
with corresponding savings of other
small grain harvested and threshed in
q similar manner. In addition, other
states, though unable to furnish ng.
ures. reported greatly reduced harvest
losses.
The figure for wheat alone Il equiv
alent to seven one-pound lOaves Of
bread for every person In the United
States and represents food that FORM
erly was either an absolute loss or
was recovered to only a slight extent
by poultry and livestock. While Op-
portunities In this branch OF cOnserva
ton were large, the quantity Of grain
recovered surpasses early expecta-
lions. 1t Is noteworthy also that re-
suits were secured principally through
voluntary cooperation.
No conservation measure Of the
Food Administration, 1t Is declared,
has received more wholehearted sup
port than that pledged and rendered
by farmers and threshermen toward
reducing grain waste at its source.
