PINTO BEAN DAY NAMED
ONE POUND WORTH 1876 EGGS IN
FOOD VALUE.
Governor Gunter, in Proclamation,
Urges Substitution of Product for
All Meat on Tuesdays
western Newspaper Union News Service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Denver.-The increased consump-
ton of Colorado pinto beans as a sub
stitute for meat on meatless days is
urged upon the people of the state in
6 proclamation issued by Governor
Julius C. Gunter The following is the
proclamation:
lnasmuch as the United States food
administration, of necessity, has desig-
mated Tuesday of each week as meat
less day; and,
Whereas, the Colorado pinto bean
is the best and most available sub
stitute for meat of all kinds and
should be used by Colorado people,
because
1. A pound of Colorado pinto
beans is the equivalent of ! GO pounds
of sirloin steak, POI pounds OF round
steak, or 1876 eggs.
2. Careful analyses by government
and state authorities show the food
value of Colorado pinto beans to be
equal to and even superior to navy
beans.
3. The Colorado pinto bean has
been developed as a most successful
crop under dry farming conditions.
4. Colorado raised in 1917, in re-
sponse to the plea for increased food
production, five times the quantity
produced in 1916 and there are now
in the hands of the growers 10000 900
pounds seeking a market at a price
much less than that at which navy
beans are sold
8. The use of this excellent article
of food by all Colorado will relieve the
necessity Of importing other foods and
therefore release for government use
rolling stock needed for other pur-
poses.
6. The greater use of Colorado
pinto beans will raise the price to the
grower; will reduce the price of east
ern grown beans to the consumer and
will, at the same time. encourage the
greater production of this staple
article of food in response to war de-
mands.
T. Coloradoans should encourage
the use OF pinto beans as home pro-
duct because the crop is capable of
greatly increased production in this
state.
s. The growth of this crop will put
the ground in excellent condition for
the planting of wheat rye and furnish
valuable by-products for live stock.
.. Pinto beans are easily stored
and handled, are non-perishable and
do not depreciate with age.
Now, therefore. all Colorado fam
lilies, hotels, restaurants. boarding
houses and dining cars are asked in
aid of the general war campaign to
use Colorado pinto beans as a substi-
tute for meat on Tuesday of each
week
