quality.
The dealers job is to keep the eggs
good. Shipments should be made
properly and promptly. The quicker
an egg passes through the various
channels OF distribution to the ulti-
mate consumer the better it's quality
and the higher its value.
How many farmers can tell wheth-
er eggs they sell: are good or bad?
The answer is by Gambling. How can
the dealer tell whether the eggs he
buys are good? Again the answer is
Gambling.

USE LESS WHEAT.

The allied nations have made

us for breadstuffs - demands
that Americans are obligated to
meet.
In the meantime Americas
meat supply has been greatly
Increased for some months TO
come by the unprecedented
shipping to market Of hogs that
averaged 232 pounds each in
stead of 203 pounds-the nor
NAL.
The United States Food Ad-
ministration, endeavoring to ad-
Just the international food bal
ance, promptly removed certain
restrictions in this country on
the use of meat and at the same
time asked for a smaller con-
sumption of breadstuffs.
We are asked to observe only
one meatless day each week
Tuesday. We will have larger
meat stocks for awhile. But
our bread ration must be held
to a minimum.
In altering its food conserva-
lion program the Food Admin
istration emphasizes that the
food situation is of necessity,
subject to radical changes,
caused by crop conditions at
home and abroad and by the
precarious transportation prob
lem, both in overseas shipping

The Food Administration will

selected as his subject, The Relation

Holiness movement and the trend Of
his argument was that belief in Pre-
