JERSEY EXTENDS
ITS FOOD SAVING
PROGRAM Outlined at Meeting OF
County Administrators With
State Food Chief.

New Jerseys food conservation pro-
gram for the coming year was out
lined in a general way at the meeting
of the County Food Administrators
with State Administrator William 5.
Tyler s,ld his executive aids at New
ark recently.
The meeting was productive OF a
clearer understanding on the part OIL
the County Administrators of the food
regulations and their administration.
Mr.. Tyler's report of the meeting OF
State Administrators with U. S. Food
Administrator Hoover at Washington,
September 4 and 3, was instructive as
to the important part the United
States is playing in feeding the Allied
nations and of the ideals of Mr.. Hoo
yer for voluntary conservation by the
American people Is a more effective
means of saving food than any ration
Ing system.
The main points of the program for
the coming year are as follows:
North America has undertaken to
feed the Allied Peoples fighting Ger
many.
While the wheat crop Is larger this
year the other cereals have fallen
short so much as to make he total
cereal crop less than last year.
Demands upon us are greater.
Therefore we cannot let down the
bars. but must ask more conservation
In food than ever before.
Americas Pledge.
America has pledged 100000 tons
of foodstuffs to Europe, as against
1O,O00,00 last year..
The change in bread mixture from
1880 to 1920 is merely the new pro-
portion as between wheat and other
crops this year. AS a whole the bread
saving must be more, not less, this
year than last.
To change the mind of the New Jer-
sey people to buy less, to eat less and
for the clean plate is the program of
the Administration.
Conservation to be by voluntary eff
fort of the people through an appeal
to their constituencies specific in de-
tail and more the free will offering or
each person. The people must save to
meet a worlds shortage and to build
up a reserve stock of food for emer-
gencieS.
Continuation of the present sugar
program Of two pounds per person per
month until July 1, 1919, and the an
nouncement of an increase of the price
of sugar by about n cent additional
per pound for the new crop to cover
the increased costs of production.
Checking up of dealers statements
on sugar supplies by County Admins
traitors and the issuing of sugar GER
t~ificates by County Administrators to
dealers in exchange for canning GER
t~ificates to expedite replenishing of
sugar supplies.
Aa q universal use of mixed flour,

HOUSEHOLDER MUST
HELP TO SAVE WHEAT

A careful survey has been made of
the food requirements of the Allied
Countries and from the reports 1t is
found that to reserve enough supplies
and reserve against disaster for two
hundred and twenty million people
fighting against Germany there must
be maintained a conservation of wheat
flour during the coming year.
Beginning September l we may use
SO per cent. of wheat flour in our
b%atters, dough, and pastry mixture.
There are many of us who will con-
tinue on practically a total wheat alb
%stinence basis so long as there is a
need f1r wheat. We like the new
breads and we feel more American
absolutely necessary.
The Food Administration is relying
upon each householder to do her part
and see that at least 90 per cent. of
substitute cereals is mixed into the
wheat flour for all uses at home.
Ask for Victory Mixed Flour.
To be sure to have your mixture cor
rect buy Victory Mixed Flour. This
will be in the proper proportion of
four pounds of wheat flour to one
pound of either barley or corn flour.
The iours and proportions are plainly
marked on the package.
When wheat flour is purchased
either barley, corn meal or corn flour
must be purchased in the proportion
of one pound of either to four pounds
of wheat flour.
There are some localities where
other flours are desirable as wheat
releasers. The administration allows
that where desirable the consumer
may buy in the same proportions any
of the following tiours to mix with the
wheat they use: Rice, Bean, Kaffir,
Dat, Potato, Buckwheat, Peanut,
Sweet Potato, Milo Feterita Flour.
Where Rye flour is purchased as a
substitute two pounds of rye flour
must be purchased with three pounds
of wheat flour.
Buy Navy Bean Flour.
Navy bean flour should be in every
kitchen as it Is both a wheat and
meat releaser. Use it in place of any
wheat flour as t~hickening for gravies
and soups and as Touring for outlets
and croquettes. A splendid PURGE can
be made of just the bean flour cooked
thoroughly in water or milk seasoned
and added to hot milk either fresh or
ev%aporated. If ~evaporated milk is used
it may be diluted-One and One-half
parts water to n part evaporated
milk2and give a hearty PURGE with
the cooked bean flour and a liberal
seasoning of a high grade oleomar-
garine. The oleomargarine will add
the fat needed to make a thick bean
PURGE practically a meat in itself.
1t is no hardship for many of us to
do without wheat entirely at least one
meal every day. For these meals
bread sticks made of the navy bean
flour will prove welcome.

SUGAR FOR JAMS AND BUFFERS

Delicious jams and buffers can be
made by adding to the berries me
third their weight III sugar. Have
part of the berries ripe and part under
ripe. Cook rapidly until the product
flakes off the side of the spoon instead
of coming off in drops. PIT Jam into
pint or half-pint jars, seal ard cook at
temperature just below boiling point
for twenty minutes in hot. water bath
outfit such as is used in canning.
Jams made by this method are con-
sidered by many preferable to jams
where more sugar is used, as the prod
uct has a more natural flavor. Jams
made with this proportion of sugar
must be sealed as usual products are
scaled. If such jams were put into
jelly glasses they would ferment, since
there is not sufficient sugar to act al
a p~reservative.
