SHARE OUR SUGAR
WITH The ALLIES
British Get Two Pounds a Month.
French Pound and Half,
Italians One Pound.
GERMAN SUPPLY PLENTIFUL.
All Nations Permit Use Of sweetenlng
for Home Preserving Purposes.

Americas new sugar ration of two
pounds a month per person is equita-
BILE when compared with the sugar ra-
,tion enforced by rigid governmental
order in England, France and Italy, ma
tions with which we are sharing sugar.
Each Allied nation-in the matter Of
sugar consumption-lss sharing on near
est possible equal terms the hardships
imposed by greatly altered conditions
in the world sugar situation.
Formerly Classed as luxury, sugar
lis now war time essential. The fair
and just division of this essential is
in the hands Of the various Allied
food controllers.
The United States Food Administra-
ton has asked this nation to observe
"a voluntary sugar ration Of two
pounds per person month.
In the other countries at war with
Germany sugar Is one of the scarce
articles on every menu-whether in
the households of both rich and poor,
or in the hotels.
England today has a sugar ration
of two pounds per month per person.
In France the ration is a pound and a
half and in Italy it is one pound a
month. And the prices in allied eoun-
tries are from two to three times as
high as In America. = -,
If you go to a hotel In England or
France these days and order tea or
coffee they serve absolutely no sugar
with it. If you want sugar you must
bring it with you,
In England It is allowable to use
one-seventh of an ounce of sugar in
the preparation of each luncheon. In
France many persons carry little sac
charine tablets about with them for
use in hotels and in England rich and
poor must take their sugar withA them
If they wish to have sweetened tea
while visiting friends.
Before the war started France had
625,000 acres devoted to sugar produc-
ton. BY 1917 the French sugar acre
age had decreased to 10000 acres.
Today the French man or woman with q
sugar card has no assurance whatever
that he or she will be able to actually
buy sugar. To buy it, one must first
find IT,
Italy Has Estate Sugar."
Especially drastic regulations govern
the use of sugar in Italy. It's manu-
facture. distribution and sale are close
ny controlled, and in part actually
taken over by the state.
Saccharine is permitted to be sold
and used as substitute for sugar and
the government manufactures a mix
ture of saccharine and sugar called
estate Sugar" which is largely used.
German Sugar Ration Adequate.
Germany, before the war, produced
a great surplus of sugar and exported
large quantities. Today the Germans
have virtually gone out of the export
business, but have plenty Of cheap
sugar for home use.
Wholesale prices prevalent in the
Allied nations, according to informa-
ton received by the United States
Food Administration are as follows
England, 10 cents pound; France
u cents; Italy, 26 cents.
While these high prices are being
paid abroad the American wholesale
price is being held at III cents.

The August Sale reductions

no iOTlud HOUSEWIVES Problem.
The new meat regulation has re-
leased the meat conservation pledges.
Although the housewife is not to OBJ
serve meatless days she is asked to fol-
low the new order from the Food Ad-
ministration, that meat should be Sc
lected from light weight animals. The
housewife is particularly urged to Sc
lect meat from Florida beef
Reasons for the New Order.
The light weight cattle are for home
consumption that the heavier cattle
can be used for war export.
The extreme drought in the south
west and other parts OF the country
is causing a rush of light weight beef
to the market.
Florida Beef for Florida People.
Florida beef is usually small. The
use OF home products saves in trans
portation. Fully so per cent of the
freight OF two of the great eastern
railroads last year was used for war
freight This year will make greater
demands.
Our military movements must have
first consideration. Can any house.
wife In the face Of this fail to fulfill
her patriotic duty and select the meat
from Florida beef?
The Housewives Solution to the Meat
Problem.
I The Florida housewife will try to
solve this problem: First, because 1t IS
her patriotic duty and ais an individu-
al she has an opportunity to make a
war record for herself, her home. her
state, and her nation.
Secondly, the housewife will find IN
solving this problem she is practicing
economy. True economy means the
selecting between essentials and non
essentials. She must study to secure
the best method of preparing and
serving cheaper cuts from Florida
beef.
| The series OF articles which will fol-
| low have been selected as suggestions
for the housewife in facing this new
situation.

The following is an original speech
by Mamie Benson, age thirteen to
have been delivered by her at Red
Cross entertainment in Mobile but will
be given by her here since she mas
lately arrived in Pensacola to make
her home.
Girls and Boys, we all know that
we are in one of the greatest wars
ever fought In history and we know
that among other things IL is going
to take money to win this great con-
flict. But, there is more money in
circulation today than ever before and
one way'to help win Is by practicing
the right economy. America can and
must win. Our flag is at the top OF
steeple and mast and must stay there.
The torch OF Liberty is high in the
air and il her arm is crushed we shall
suffer, but the flag and torch shall
never fall il the women and children
OF America do their share at home to
back the men in the trenches.
Uncle Sam fully understands the sit
uation OF the American people and has
issued liberty bonds for as low as fifty
dollars. He knew all could not buy
the liberty bonds, as he has issued
five dollar war saving stamps, and he
has gone still further in order that
all may have the privilege OF helping
by issuing twenty-five cent thrift
stamps, the book holding sixteen TWEEN
