Too much sugar is used on the
American table with a consequent

The new program of the Food Ad-
ministration is less specific but no
less definite than that of the last
IL months. Then the food admin
istration was meeting one emergency
after another as 1t rose. This year
Il will be a long, steady pull directed
20 the whole food situation and not
90 much to particular commodities.
After a years experience the Food
Administration is on a new footing
here and abroad. The ways have been
learned, the methods have been de-
;eloped. The war conscience is &C.
tive everywhere.
The spirit which will carry this eff
fort through to another triumph is
alone the same, yet intensified by the
year of anxiety and frightened
hopes.

VICTORY GARDENS FOR NEXT

Planning victory gardens for next
year should be one of the fall and

planning, gardens should all be clear

consistently followed up, Americans
will have a victory crop of choice
