No Established Wheatless
Days, but Pound and Half
Should Be the Very Limit

The United States food admInistra-
ton has made wheatless days and
wheatless meals optional in private
homes. But that does not mean tho
lid has been tahen Of. II only means
that the question of which day or meal
shall be wheatless Is left to the indf.
vidual household.
In other words, the food admInistra.
ton has made the reduction Of wheat
consumption n test Of good citizen
ship. Each citizen In the land is
asked, as a good American, to cut hts
individual wheat consumption to n
pound and n half n week. That means
TO cut the ordinary, peace-time cun-
sumption In two. 1t doesn't matter on
what day or what meals that Is done.
just so 1t is done. In that regard the
food administration says:
in making optional the observauce
Of wheatless days in private homes
the food administration lifted no re-
strictions upon the consumption OF
wheat products. II Is merely asking
the American people to reduce their
per capita consumption to not more
than ~ pounds per week. 49,.
'"rhis Is IN absolute military neces-
sity. The method of saving is being
left entirely to the individual. II 1t
a be done without foregoing the use
Of wheat Mt any specified meal or on
any day, the food administrations ur-
gent plea for further conservation Will
be carried out to the letter."

PLAN AHEAD FOR
BETTER POULTRY

One must plan ahead in order to be
successful in any line Of endeavor.
Poultry keeping is no exception, writes
an authority. II you do not have the
breeding birds you need for the seas
on of 1918, now Is a good time to get
them. There Is a countrywide scare.
ity OF good birds for breeding purposes,
and n must expect to pay somewhat
higher prices than In past years. II
will not pay to get inferior birds in or
der to save u little of the purchase
price.
If you are Just starting, or II you
want new blood, you can buy either
stock or eggs for Matching. Men are
more likely to buy stock because they
do not usually handle eggs so care
fully rs women and also because usu-
ally they have more money to spend.
To buy stock Is the safer plan, of
course, and on the whole is better, but
1t costs more money. For both stock
and eggs prices are high and will con-
tinue SO. One canno expect to buy
eggs for Matching In 1918 In quantities,
at So per hundred. Such low prices
are now absurd for eggs from stock of
any decent quality ut all.
Most poultry breeders, except those
who have n large number of birds of
superior quality, are compelled to re-
plenish their flock with new blood al
most every year. Our fiocks either
go up or go down. Just because prices
are higher than normal we must be
careful to get good quality In what
we buy. This Is a time when poor
stun will not pay. There never was
a time when II was so true that "the
best Is none too good" 1t does not
pay to keep inferior fowls now.

Why They Are Called TumbIers.

About 1900 years ago the Saxons In
England used drinking vessels that
were made Of horns Of cattle or oxen.
They were shaped like cones. As their
bottoms were pointed they would not
stand erect. When a man had his drink
Ing horn filed he disposed OF it's con-
tents Mt a single draught and did not
lay II down until he had drained 1t.
These horns were tumblers In the sense
that they would not stand upright. Al
though u modern glasses do not have
this Objectionable quality. the name
that originated In early Saxon times
still persists.

Consumption Of Sugar Goes
Up to 81 Pounds Per Capita
Since Revolutionary Period

The American who during the
worlds greatest war must get along
with one lump of sugar instead of two
In his coffee will be interested in the
fact hat the Revolutionary patriots
had much less or none at all of the
sweetening food material.
A century ago, says the United States
department of agriculture, the people
Of this country consumed less than
one-testh as much sugar as they do
now. In 1~791-1795. just after the RsvO-
luton, the estimated annual consump-
ton was TO pounds per capita. In
1S21-1S25 the average per capita con-
sumption was S.3 pounds and was prac-
tically the same 20 years earlier. But
In the five years ending with 1915 the
total consumption in the United States
a approximately S,OOO,OOO,OOO
pounds. a yearly average of about "a
pounds for each person, or 1878 pounds
for an average family CAS- p~ersons).
Reasons for the increase can be
found not only in many new and ex-
tended uses for sugar but also In nu.
merous sources Of the product. Do
nestle cane and beet fields supplied %
per cent Of the sugar we used in 1911
1915; the planters of Hawaii, Porto
Rico and the Philippines furnished 20
per cent; while Cuba. supplemented by
small amounts from other foreign
countries 8, furnished 81 per cent Dur
ing thesn five years the sugar cOnsump-
ton Of the United States averaged al
most 100, 100000 pounds per week. The
supply for q weeks came from foreign
countries. rur island possessions fur
nished supplies for 10 weeks consump-
ton, while the product of the United
States proper was equivalent to u
weeks average consumption.

Old Age Cannot Wear Out
Its Shoes as ReckIessIy
As Does the Gay Youth

Preparing for easy old age Is one of
the spurs hat has transformed a
wholesome ambition into a "vaulting
ambition that o'erleaps itself" Many
a man has shortened his life OverwOrk-
ing to take are of the old age that he
thus snuffed out, observes a writer in
the Minneapolis Journal. Any man Is
remiss who does not prepare against
old age, but nature has also taken a
hand In this preparation.
Old age cannot wear out its shoes ms
recklessly as does youth. The normal
old man finds better entertainment in
meditation than he could In expensive
amusement. Memory is his 'movle."
Society does not ask old people to burn
expensive midnight oil nor to appear
on dress parade. Thus normal and
gratifying reduction of outgo is equiva-
lent to an addition to the income.
Feverish preparation for old age i'm.
piles the belief not only that the appe
lite will not decrease with old age, but
that old age will be wholly helpless to
sustain itself. AS a matter Of fact,
but a small proportion Of the old are
totally disabled for gainful labor. And
few. II any. old people are as happy
when Idle as when occupied with such
work as they are fitted to do.
The wise old man has learned what
as a foolish young man he failed to
see. that "enOugh is as good as a
feast" and that after all "nan wants
but little here below" Sensible com
fort In old age does not come very
high.

EatMoreRice
Nutritious Food That is a
Good Substitute for Wheat
prepared by the United States Depart.
ment Of Agriculture.)

|L
Here in the United States It is diff
cult to realize that there is no other
edible product. except perhaps meat,
upon which more people In the world
are dependent for food than rice, and
that we might advantageously con-
sumo much greater quantities Of this
nutritious food and grow the increase
In u W rice fields. An increased
production and consumption not only
would expand a profitable industry,
but the eating Of more rice In the
pace of wheat would release a great
er quantity Of the bread grain for
shipment to the allies.
The average per capita consumption
of rice for food In this country is
scarcely 9 pounds a year, and most
of this is consumed In the Southern
states. The high esteem in which rice
is held In other countries is indicated
by their per capita consumption. Nor
way and Sweden consume over 0
pounds per capita Russia over IL
pounds; England, q pounds; France.
"a pounds Italy, over 1O1 pounds, and
Germany more than 90 pounds. But
even these European countries do not
begin to eat as much rice as Japan
and China. There, rice is the most
important article Of diet. Each man,
woman and child In Japan, on the
average, consumes lat pounds of rice
each year, and those in China, 1853
pounds.
The placing Of such dependence
upon rice as a staple food certainly
proves beyond a doubt that 1t is high
ly nutritious; analysis of rice supports
this proof. Pound for pound rice is
about as nutritious as wheat. Every
100 pounds Of cleaned rice contains
S7.7 pounds Of nutriment. of which 8
pounds are protein, 0.3 pound fat, 70
pounds carbohydrates, and O.4 pound
ash. The analysis of wheat -four
shows that 1t contains ST. pounds Of
nutriment in each 100 pounds. Of
which 1913 pounds are protein. IL
pounds fat. 74.S pounds carbohydrates.
and o. pound ash. Thus the total
nutriment In rice is a triiie greater
than in wheat. Wheat has the advan-
tage In protein and rice in carbO-
hydrates.
Although rice Is the great foodstuff
Of the Orient. Il Is not used there In
making a raised bread. In this coun-
try dieticians have made excellent
bread BY substituting az high al 25
per rent Of rice for wheat -four, and
have obtained a white yeast bread Of
excellent flavor.
