FOOD SAVING NOW
THE BIG PROBLEM
MR.. HOOVER DECLARES 1T is NO
SMALL PART OF VICTORY
WAR ISSUE.
PAST SAVING, WONDERFUL HELP
Says We Aim to Ship 5,73o,oD0 Tons
Moro Than Was Moved Last Year
to Our Armies and Allies, Yet
Keep Strength at Home.

Washington. - Food Administrators
Hoover in outlining in a statement
issued this week the food conserva-
ton program recommended for the
American people during the coming
year, said the United States was
prepared to ship $4,000 more tons
of foodstuffs to it's armies and allies
than last year and still have a mar
gin over the amount necessary to
maintain health and strength at
home.

Eliminate All Waste.

"Of our imports" Mr.. Hoover said.
I'VE shall apparently have sufficient
sugar to maintain the present con-
sumption and take care of the extra
drain of the allies from our markets.
instead of compelling them to send
their ships to the far east. We can
secure in sailing vessels the coffee
we need, if no one makes an over
brew. In our own products we must
secure reduction in consumption and
waste in the two great groups of,
first, breadstuffs, and second, meats
and fats-that is, in all bread and
cerials, beef pork, poultry, dairy and
vegetable oil products.
'The average consumption of our
people of breadstuffs amounts to
about six pounds week and of
meats and fats to four pounds a
week for each person. On a reduc-
ton in consumption of less than half
pound a week a person in each of
these two great groups of food would
accomplish our purpose. We wish to
emphasizes, however, that we do not
want curtailment in the use of milk
for children.
Bonners Ferry herald. [volume] (Bonners Ferry, Idaho) 1904-current, 1918-09-24
Every Person to Save.

The great undertaking can not be
accomplished, however, Mr.. Hoover
emphasized, without due regard to
the Importance of saving by every
person, with no prospect, as he saw
it, if proper ending of the war be-
fore the summer campaign of 1919.
The food problem, the food admins
traitor declared, is no small part of
the issue. The allied civilians and
armies. the American armies, the
Belgian relief and certain neutrals
who are dependent upon the United
States will require 17,550,000 tons of
foodstuffs for the year beginning
July /. This, in round numbers will
include meats and fats, 100000 tons;
breadstuffs, 10,400,000; sugar, 1885,
600, and feed grains, mostly army
oats, 100000
There will be no food rations in
this country so long as the people
continue to conserve, as in the past,
Mr.. Hoover said.
