 All of the public eating places in Juneau, Thane, Treadwell and Doug las, about thirty-five in number, have agreed to do so. All of them became members of the United States Food Administration at a recent joint con 1 fc. nee with the Federal Food Ad- mmistrator for Alaska at Jne:u; and, at the same time agreed to, and aye now carrying out the following program of conservation:
 Bread, butter and crackers are not kept on the tables and are not put before the guests until the meal is actually served; bread is being sliced thinner. butter is served in an un- frozen state, because a less quantity iS required of it than when frozen. A meatless Tuesday, wheatless Wednes- |av an. pGklcss Satu dIy ar also being strictly observed. Only two cubes of sugar are being given each guest unl >s he or ,he ask, for. IT c. Grocers have been asked to handle in larger quantities cube sugar and the bakers have been requested to regu- late their production of wheat breads for Wednesdays delivery 90 that thcy twill not bake an excess amount.
 The Federal Food Administrator kindly asks you to adopt the same program to tho end that enough food may be saved with which to win the war, as Food is the weapon that will win the war.
 The action of the eating houses O!
  this section has probably been called to your attention by chairman of food-saving committee acting under authority from this office; if not. this notice will give you the information IS to what has been done and what it is hoped will give you the informa- ton as to what has been done and what it is hoped will be done by ev- cry public eating place throughout tne territory during the war. Many restaurants have been observing h.eatlesS and wheatless days indis- criminately. 1t is now the desire to have certain days observed. Then too, this will enable the public to readily conform thereto.
 A great amount of meats, wheat and fats is being saved in Alaska by the hearty cooperation of the eating houses and dealers in food stuffs, due to the hearty cooperation of its pa triotic citizens. A continuance of the program by our citizens will enable Uncle Sam to supply, in large de- gree, the needed foods to our soldiers and those of our associates in the war now carrying on the great struggle for democracy.
 The Federal Food Administrator for Alaska expresses his sincere ap- p.eciation for your hearty cooperation in the past and most respectfully asks that you continue doing all with in your power to conserve the food stuffs so urgently needed at th'' time.
 Shortly we will mail you a large colored poster which we ask you to display in your establishme tt. And ] from time to time we will take pleas ure rn sending you recipes and litera- tuye concerning the great fo,G con- selvation movement now in progress over the United States.
 The following slogans, are also sent that you may Ise them to the best ad- vantage in keeping before the public the importance of conserving foods at this critical time in our history:
 Be canny with food.
 Peel thin and win.
 Not tha: we love less, but pe love liberty more.
