However, theSnew conservation pro-
gram, whichsis considered vital, will
be pushed unfnterruptedly. 81;
Meetings OF all kinds having: been
banned on account Of the epidemic the
aid Of the churches, the schools, the
four-minute speakers, libraries, lodges,
and patriotic workers could not be Sc
cured for the strenuous campaign in
the planning of which they were es-
sential parts. It is hoped that by
December /, necessity for quarantined
conditions Will have disappeared.
Preparatory to the issuance OF TO-
OOO, 10000 home cards on that date, the
Food Administration will have per-
fected, through the cooperation of the
Federal Food Administrators through
out the country, plan OF distribu-
ton, which it is is anticipated will
result in the placing of home cards
bearing the latest, suggestions of the
Food Administration in the hands Of
every American housewife simultan-
eously.. .s.t .t
Disregarding the precedent set in
the first home card distribution, the
Food Administration will make no
effort to reduplicate the pledges of
more than twelve million American
housewives who last year siguifed
their willingness to cooperate in the
conservation of all foodstuffs, rs it is
apparent that American Womanhood
will aid the Food Administration in
helping to supply the nutritive sinews
of war to the Allies and our armed
forces.
The new home card will contain no
regulations regarding either wheat
less" of "Meatless" days, but will
urge as whole, the most careful saw
ing in all edibles, particularly in the
conservation of wheat, meat, fats, and
sugar. The significant fact that it
will be necessary for the United States
to send 5 3-4 million tons more food
stuffs to the Allies this year than
last, with an almost staggering total
of II 1-2 million tons for the coming
year will re-awaken the supervisor
of the family market basket, to the
urgent necessity of maintaining pa
triotic watchfulness over the spread,
of her individual table in order that
the 12O,OOOO,00O Allies sitting at a
common table" with America may
have the stamina with which to bring
the war to successful conclusion in
1919.
