USE OF BEEF
IS CUT DOWN
follow POINT
Drastic Measures for Con-
servation to Be Put
Into Effect.

Clarence R. Wilson, District Food
Administrator, put the question Of
adequate beef supplies for the Amert-
can and allied fighting men squarely
up to the people of Washington yes
terday.
The most drastic regulations thus
far established for the conservation
Of beef will go into effect at once in
hotels, restaurants and other public
eating places in the Capital. Pork
will, in large measure, Constitute the
chief substitute at public eating
houses. Citizens are asked to pur-
chase beef sparingly and to use pork
products whenever possible, at least
for the summer.
Pound and ne-Quarter Weekly.
Here Is what the Food Administra-
tor expects of every household head
who does the buying for the family:
To purchase not more than one ana
a quarter pounds of clear beef weekly.
or one and a half pounds including
the bone. for every person in the
household.
To substitute fresh pork, bacon,
hams and sausage for beef products.
Hotels and restaurants in Washing
ton will not serve boiled beef at more
than two meals weekly. beefsteak al
more than one. and roast beef al
more than one.
With this appeal yesterday from
Food Administrator Wilson came
the realization to Washington OF the
increased demands Of the American
forces in France for beef supplies
from America. The size OF the Amer
ican forces, given officially by Sec
retary Baker as being in excess of
700, 200, is the reason for the active
steps taken by food officials to con-
serve beef, which can be more readily
transported overseas than any other
meat product.
The National Food Administration
has taken up with local administra
tors throughout the country the ques-
ton of further reductions in allow
anees Of beef for home consumption.
Pork Supplies Large.
Pork supplies are arge in many sec
tions. the food administration be-
lieves. and pork will be more eco
nomical dish for awhile than beef,
it is thought. The present demand
for beef from the American and
allied armies and the allied civilian
population is frankly admitted by the
food officials to be in excess Of the
available supply.
The newly announced program OF
beef conservation will continue until
September Is, 1t was said by Admin
istrator Wilson. and the hearty CO.
operation Of the public during this
period is earnestly sought by those
charged with the administration of
food regulations in Washington.

a. m, tired out bunch Of "Sammies."
Still, after resting and sleeping part
Of the day, and getting one whole
nights sleep, we felt great deal bet
ter. Then, too, we were allowed to
take it easy few days besides, so we
feel no worse now for the little hard
ship we went through. Our village is
only a few miles from the front, so
close in fact that we hear the guns
both big and small, booming nearly
every day, while it is a common sight
each day to see aeroplanes (mostly
Germany flying overhead trying to es-
cape the shells which are fired at
them by the Allies. At first it
caused me some nervousness to hear
the big shells go whizzing above us,
but now it doesn't bother me very
much, unless of course they should
happen to come too close. Where we
are billeted is known as quiet sector
but at times it doesn't strike me as
being very quiet, especially when the
artillery from both sides starts roar
ing. Right now can hear an aero
plane whirring above, likely observ-
| ing.
In regard to what we have been do
ing in the line of duty the past
few weeks will say that we have done
some signal practicing, detail work,
and the last four or five days we have
been called out of bed at 20 and 800
a. m. to hike about three miles out in
to the hills, where we dug communi-
cation trenches, laid wire, etc. AT
first it seemed pretty hard to roll out
at such an early hour, but we got used
to it. One morning when we were
ready to go back to town the Germans
started to shell the road which we use
to go back and forth on, so we waited
until the firing stopped, when we con-
tinued our hike back. One night
was chosen to do guard duty, guard
ing a ration train which went out te
the second line trenches. AS we
went along we heard the rapid fire Of
the machine guns and saw several
lights fare out in "No-Man's Land
It kind Of got on my nerves at first
but l got over my slight scare.
could tell you more about the events
and daily experiences here, but really

Hoping that this affair "over here

soon meet again, with best regards
and wishes, / remain as ever, your
faithful and loving son and brother,
