THE MEAT SITUATION

United States Food Administrator Herbert Hoover has sent the follow. ing telegram to the Federal Food Administrator at Juneau:,
 "The food administration is ex- tremely desirous of securing econ omy in the consumption of all kinds of meats without reinstallation of meatless days for the present. Sea- sonal decline in volume of animals coming to market is now in progress and it's volume will undoubtedly fur ther decrease during the next few months as is usual, but probable amount of such decrease is yet ob- scure.. The necessities for shipping abroad to our army and allies are very large and amount roughly to 75,000,000 pounds of meat and meat products of all kinds per week against pre-war normal of less than 15,000,00O pounds. Even with these large shipments the allies have found it necessary to reduce consumption of all kinds of meat and poultry to an average of about one and one quarter pounds per week, per per son, in order that no further draft should be made upon shipping that is now required for the transport of our soldiers. Our consumption of meats is about three and one quarter pounds per week, per per son, and if we are to make both ends balance during short market ing seasons we must have further economy. If the public will con- tinue in rigorous elimination of waste and will further economize by reducing quantities prepared for each meal of all kinds of meat and poultry more particularly beef, and will restrict their purchases accord ingly, the food administration hopes that the necessary balance can be maintained; general observance of these recomm endations will avoid the inconveniences which arise in many directions from meatless days and will cause less interference in daily preparation of food. There is

now seasonable abundance of milk products which can well be {, substituted in various forms. Short. age of fish during the past several months, due to necessity of naval requisitioning of trawlers and en. listment of fishermen for navy should soon be considerably realized by the expansion which has been arranged in other forms of fishing" Pursuant to the above warning and recommendations of the United States Food Administrator, the Fed eral Food Administrator for Alaska asks all households, hotels, public eating places and all consumers of meats to observe the strictest econ- omy in the use of meats. If this is not done, meatless days and meals may again be restored. The meat supply must be maintained during this war.
 
 The medical aphorism that "a man is as old as his arteries should be the test in determining the age limit of soldier, recently declared pr. Arthur Lynch, a member of par lament.
 After certain age, say forty. the man who has not been particu- larly strong physically and who has not overtaxed his system in ath- letic exercises" the physisian said, "is often more serviceable than a man who has been brilliant ath- lete at twenty-five. Of curse, bronchitis, pneumonia and rheuma- tism, which would disable soldier. would be found much more ire quently in men of forty-five and over than in young men. I have seen men we'll on to seventy cara able of walking thirty miles a lay. In the Serbian army they use men up 10 seventy.
 "This matter depends very largely on the individual, and to some ex- tent on the race. The French brought up their fighting forces to over fifty and as rule the French age quick CT than men in this country or. in Ireland"

WOMEN INVITED
 ID HELP START
 FOOD CAMPAIGN
Mrs. Cooney Issues Call for Meeting to Organize Woman's Defense
 Council

Acting on her appointment a. temporary chairman for the purpose of organizing Woman's Council o1 Defense for this district, Mrs. M. J Cooney has issued a call for all the women of Nenana to be present al a meeting to be held at Grace church tomorrow evening at eight o'clock, at which time permanent officers will be selected and com mittees appointed to carry on the work in Nenana.
 The importance of such an organi- zation is recognized in all cities, towns and villages throughout the entire United States, and wonderful work has been done in conserving the food supply, by the campaigning of these patriotic associations, and by their work in encouraging "war gardens" and other agricultural pur- suits.
 Agnes Swineford Shattuck, of Juneau, has been appointed chair man of the Department of Home Economics of the Women's Com mittee of National Defense, for ter ritory of Alaska, and it is from Mrs. Shattuck that Mrs. Cooney received her appointment, the word coming in telegram. The territorial chair man has full authority to carry on the work in Alaska, to the minutest detail and is making appointments in every section.
 There is a lot of work that can be done by the women of this, as we'll as other districts of Alaska, and the purpose of the proposed or ganization is to stimulate food sav- ing and create an interest in home gardens, of which very few have been started in Nenana.
 Mrs. Cooney is a practical bus- ness woman and has, in addition, a general knowledge of food con- servation and undoubtedly will be able to render valuable assistance to the proposed organization. The movement is spreading rapidly in other sections of Alaska and is re- garded as certain that the women of Nenana, who have rendered and are rendering valuable assistance to the Red Cross, will give their SUD- port to the new work. All are urged to attend the meeting.
 Mrs. Kellum and Mrs. J. H. Flower have been appointed to assist in the work of organization.
