PORKLESS DAYS NO MORE

Having lifted the ban on pork,
Food Commissioner Hoover does not
expect the American people to abuse
the license given them, says the Com
mercial-Appeal. Our meatless days
and our porkless were ordered more
for. the purpose of bringing people
face to face with war conditions than
because of any actual necessity.
We have been extravagant. We
have become slaves to our appetites.
We have been wasteful and it was
timely that the food administration
should call halt.
The order, during the brief time
that it was in force, has done much
to improve the temperament of the
American people. It has proven to
them, in a very frank way, how I'M
necessarily extravagant they have
been in what they order for the fam
lily table and what they order at no
tells and cafes. 1t has shown public
caterers the value of conserving
food It has above al things i'm
pressed upon the mind Of the Amer
lean people what may become per-
manent condition before this war is
over.
The abrogation of the order comes
Just at the propitious time. In the
winter we are given to meat eating.
The blood and body demand meat.
Eggs were sold during the winter at
prohibitive prices. Eggs furnished
the most popular substitute for, meat.
We will before long be on the
threshold of summer Men and wo-
men should not, for physical reasons,
eat much meat during the summer
and never but at one meal. Eggs are
now in reach of all. The market is
abundantly supplied. Soon the gar
dens will begin to yield vegetables
that are vitality essential to the physi-
cal well being of all during the warm
weather season.
If the physicians are right, and
they are practically unanimous in
their opinion, a radical reduction IN
the meat diet in summer should be
followed by all who expect to be
healthy. There is still meat saving
campaign in progress. A dual pur-
pose can be obtained this summer if
consumers will follow the advice of
the family physician in no half
hearted way. It will be splendid
plan to cut your meat diet in half if
not do without meat altogether ex-
cept on Sundays, during the months
of June, July and August.
The whole packing house business
grows out Of efforts to preserve meat
for winter use when the supply of
eggs and vegetables are scarce and
prices high.
There is no great occasion for the
general use of meat in summer and
while under the action of Commission
Hoover we are at liberty to eat meat
when we will, we will be doing the
sensible thing by following the sim
pie laws of nature and feed ourselves
according to the products of the sea-
son.
