REDUCE
YOUR TOBACCO

Washington, July Id. The Amcri-
can smoker at home will have to cur
tail his use of tobacco so the men at
the front of all the allies may have
their ration. The war industries
board announces tonight that it is in
veStlgating now to determine Just how
much home consumption must be re-
duced.
Great Britain, France, Belgium and
Italy are dependent on America for a
large percentage Of their tobacco. It.
ally to the extent Of u per cent, and
all Of them to the extent that lessen
ing of the supply from America would
be felt very keenly.
The per capita consumption of the
United States is seven and half
pounds a year; Great Britain, four
pounds; France, three and a half, and
Italy, two pounds.
In 1917 the United States produced
,l96,00O,000 pounds of leaf tobacco,
which was sold at an increase of SO
per cent, compared with 1914 prices.
The estimate for 1918 in the United
States is 85O,00,000 pounds. But Great
Britain will need 7,0JO,O 900 pounds;
France will have to have $4,000 900
and Italy 75,000,000, a total of 387,-
100000 pounds, most of which will
have to be supplied by America.

Molds thrive in dampness and dark
