ANXIETY OVER FOOD
IS PAST SAYS HOOVER

Speaking to the dignitaries Of
the Allied nations at a luncheon in
London last week, Herbert G. Hoo
yer, our Food Commissioner, says:
1--WE can say emphatically that
all anxiety as to the great essentials
of food is past. To increase our
beef production would require from
three to five years. On the other
hand, we could bring about an
enormous increase in our meat and
fat production through swine with
in nine to twelve months. Within
the next twelve months we can ex-
port $4,000, OO5 tons if necessary
and to this Canada will add
3, OO0,OOO TONS" There will be nc
need during the next twelve months
for any restriction on the volumr
Of breadstuffs to be shipped to the
European allies, We have turneo

ENGLAND RATlONS
HER ANIMALS NOW
she PUTS THEM ON A CEREAL
DIET, STRICTLY LIMITED, IN
STEAD OF THE PEOPLE
ON A BREAD RATION.

The belligerent countries almost
without exception, have found it neces-
sary to ration bread; and it is natural
that some wonder should be expressed
that England has not done so. Great
Britain suffers from shortage of ce-
reals, as do the other warning coun-
tries, but she prefers to solve her prob
lem in another way. When the con-
sumption of bread is limited, the main
food of the poorer classes Is limited.
The well-to-do can supplement their
bread ration with other foods, but
when the supply of bread to the poor
is limited, they must go hungry, since
they cannot afford the other more ex-
pensive articles Of diet.
The British ministry of food thinks
1t more profitable, instead of rationing
bread, to increase the amount Of ce-
reals available for baking by limiting
their use in the feeding of animals.
Three and one-half to eight pounds OF
cereals must be fed, in the form Of of
falls, barley and maize, to make one
pound of fat meat. So, for each pound
of meat and fat that the English are
| willing to forego they gain about five
pounds of cereals which can be used
for bread-making. Since this policy
has been adopted, two-thirds of the of
falls which were previously fed to pigs
and cattle are now put into the loaf.
and with them most Of the barley and
maize which have been used hitherto
for feeding animals on the farm. In
this way, though the shortage of meat
has been inconvenient, it has been pos
sible to save 10 weeks supply OF
bread, enough to tide the country over
the critical time which must elapse
from now to the next harvest.
This is only one way that Great
Britain has saved her cereals, however.
Thousands of families Of the upper
and middle classes have voluntarily d.
minished their consumption of bread
by one-half, and have forced them
selves to take potatoes in its place,
i adopting the rule that at every cooked
meal potatoes should be served and
eaten as far as possible instead OF
bread

CATTLE REDUCED IN. FRANCE
Nearly Three Million Head Have Been
Destroyed During the War.

Since the outbreak of the war France
has suffered a loss of 2, 100000 head Of
cattle. Allowing 100000 for the loss
due to the invasion of the ten depart
ments of northern France, there. re-:
mains diminution of 100000 head.
Moreover, the cattle that are left have
greatly lost in weight. Before the war
the average weight in meat of slaught-
cred cattle was from ITO to 800 pounds.
whereas, today it hardly exceeds $50
to. $40 pounds.

GO0D FARM HANDS

There is one farm home near
Sidney, Iowa, where the shortage
of male help due to the war is not
causing much anxiety. At the W.

yet sixteen years old, are blowing
corn, harvesting and doing other
farm work. Opal Watson and Car

and their actions are attracting
general admiration.

The United States food adminis-
1 tration has ruled that on and after
June /, 1918. all eggs must be
l candled and counted by the buyer
or seller whether he be a general
merchant, egg dealer, or huckster
Further, that all eggs must be
/ bought from the farmer, known as
l the producer, with loss out, and
| that all cases must be certified to
I by the merchant, dealer or buck
i ster as to date of Gambling and
/ date of count. This certificate
| must be placed on the outside of

4 lid.
I All wholesalers and egg han
! dlers have been instructed not to
