Louisville, KY, Jan. 26-Following
the issuance of a proclamation by
President Wilson calling for additional
food economies, Federal Food Admins
traitor Fred NJ. Sackett today made
known to the people of Kentucky the
contents of the Kitchen Card. This
card, which supersedes the Kitchen
Card distributed during Pledge Card
Campaign Week, October 2Sth to
November 4th, calls upon all the peo-
pie Of America to observe two wheat.
less days weekly, one meatless day
and one porkless day, as well as a
wheatless and meatless meal every
day. Heretofore, only one wheatless
and one meatless day have been con.
Sidered necessary.
The new regulations are addressed
particularly to the women who signed
the pledge cards, since they promised
to follow the directions and advice
of the Food Administration" in so far
as their circumstances permit. The
| women are expected, however, to in
follow these directions also, and the
proclamation Of the President makes
it plain that the population of America
must respond unanimously and with
joyful heart if the war is to be won.
No Hardships Imposed.
| Although the new restrictions call
for the abridgment of long-established
habits, the new Kitclaen Card does not
impose any hardships. AS yet, the
American people still are not required
to make any sacrifices in the matter
of food to win the war The most any
person is asked to do is to suffer some
slight inconvenience.
The new Kitchen Card, which the
President approves and hands to the
ration as a book Of rules for winning
the war, is as follows:
"The Food Administration asks
every loyal American to help with
the war by maintaining rigidly as a
minimum of saving the following pro
gram:
Have two wheatless days (Monday
and Wednesday, in every week and
one wheatless meal in every day.
Explanation: On wheatless days
and in wheatless meals Of other days
use no crackers, pastry, macaroni
breakfast food or other cereal fooC
contAping wheat and use no whea
hoGF IN any form except the small
amount that may be needed for thick
euing soups or gravies or for a binder
il corn bread and other cereal breads
AS to bread, if you bake it at home, ust
ether cereals than wheat, and if yol
buy it, buy only war bread. Our oh
ject is that we should buy and con
sumo one-third less wheat product
than we did last year.
