Many thousand families throughout
the land are now using no wheat prod

amount for cooking purposes, and are
doing so in perfect health and satisfac-

the American people who are able to
cook in their own households cannot
subsist perfectly well with the use of
less wheat products than one and one

ask the well-to-dO households in the
country to follow this additional pro-

Of harvest we should be able to relax
such restrictions. Until then we ask
