FOODS TASTE BETTER COOKED
TOBACCO TASTES BETTER
TOASTED

Since the day of the caveman. who
liked his meat raw, civilization has
learned lot about the scientific treat
ment of the things we eat.
Naturally none of us would now
prefer to have our meat raw, our po-
tatoes as they come from the ground
our coffee unroasted.
And naturally follows the great dis
covery recently made by The Ameri-
can Tobacco Co.-that tobacco tastes
better TOASTED
This wonderful new idea.-simple
like all great inventions-was first
used in producing the famous LUCKY
STRIKE Cigarette-made of toasted
Burley tobacco.
Burley has mellow flavor, entirely
different from the tobacco usually
used for cigarettes. 1t is a pipe to-
bacco and dLUCKY STRIKE Cigarettes

responsibility, aid materially In the
production and conservation OF food
at this critical time in the worlds
history when the crying demand OF a
hungry, fighting world is for more

boys are earning money with which
to buy Liberty Bonds, thus helping in
double-barreled manner to help win

There is an effort being made to

boys enrolled in Corn Club Work, OF

and 1850 boys enrolled in Pig Clubs,
of whom only $50 reported.
To assure the success OF the Corn
and Pig Club work in South Carolina,
the cooperation, encouragement and
support OF the public-spirited citizens
is necessary. For instance, last year
a number OF bankers in different parts
OF the State helped by offering prizes.
and in this way thousands of dollars

into the State. very materially adding
to the breeding stock OF hogs. One
OF the greatest difficulties has been
encountered in supplying the boys
with pigs. This splendid work Of the
farmer boys OF South Carolina has
formed a big contribution to the food
supply OF the country. and II is a
work which offers opportunity for
many public-spirited people to lend
their aid. There will be more Pig

Many thousand families throughout
the land are now using no wheat prod.
ucts whatever, except very small
amount for cooking purposes, and are
doing so In perfect health and satlsfac-
ton. There Is no reason why all OF
the American people who are able to
cook In their own households cannot
subsist perfectly well with the use OF
less wheat products than one and one
half pounds n week. and we specially
ask the well-to-do households In the
country TO follow this additional pro-
gramme in order that we may provide
the necessary marginal supplies for
those parts of the community less able
TO adapt themselves to- so large pro-
portion of substitutes.
In order that we shall he able to
make the wheat exports that are ab-
solutely demanded OF us to maintain
the civil population and soldiers OF the
allies and our own army, we propose
to supplement the voluntary coopera.
ton OF the public by n further limita-
ton of distribution, and we shall place
at once restrictions on distribution
which will be adjusted from time to
time to secure as nearly equitable dis
tribution as possible. With the arrival
Of harvest we should be able to relax
such restrictions. Until then we ask
for the necessary patience, sacrifice
and cooperation of the distributing

Great Wheat Stocks
Isolated.

It's the shortage In ships that
is putting the Allies and the
United States on wheat rations.
Great stocks Of wheat are iso-
lated in India, and Australia. At
great sacrifice in ship space and
use the Allies are forced to Sc
cure some wheat from Argentina.
On January l, Australia had
stored 1OO,O0O,OOO bushels of
wheat that was ready for ex-
port-but there were no ships.
Then came the new crop with
an exportable surplus of 80,000,-

India, at the same time, had
100000 bushels of wheat
stored for export. During April
60,000,000 bushels more out Of
the new crop will be added to
the pile.
Argentina closed the last ship
ping season with 100000
bushels Of wheat left In the
stock available for export. The
new crop will add 135,OO0,0OO to
the left over.
1t Is not a problem that the
