THE THIRD LINE OF DEFENSE
REMAINS IN AMERICA.
DO you realize how our battle line

DO you realize how our battle line
runs?
Our first line Of defense is in Eu-
rope, under the fire Of the German
guns. At present it is held for us by
the English and the French.
Behind that line, in a country so
torn with war that its food produc-
ton has fallen far below the danger
line, is the second line our men, who
must be supplied with the concentrat
led energy which good food gives if
trenches.
We here in America form the third
line OF defense. Our base of supplies
is here. Are we adding to them by
saving the foods needed by our first
and ,secondd lines in Europeor de-
plotting them by refusing to save7
Our thirl line Of defense is as i'm
portant as the first line 1t Is formed
for the most part, by the women OF
America-the housckeepers shall
our line waver, while the first and
second lines are holding fast?
If we starve the men In the first
line who are fighting for us and our
own men in the second line who are
training and preparing to fight for us
the war is lost and the movement OF
our troops will he toward Washing
ton instead of toward Berlin.
Does any woman in the third line
Of defense hesitate as to her duty in
this matter?
Richmond planet. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1883-1938, 1918-01-26
liz FOOD GIVES OUT THE WAR
Is LOST.

One thing is becoming more and
more apparent to the housewives of
America, and that is--that today the
war has been brought into every
American household.
Our armies are preparing TO fight
5000 miles from their food base. a
thing which in any other war would
have been imposs Bile.
SO long rs each housckceper estab-
fishes btA'e supply In her own kitch
en- we are tolcrably sure Of having
enough food to forward to the hun
dreds OF thousands Of our young sol
diers who are already in France. and
VINO are going over as rapidly as they
can be sent
IL the supply stops. the war stops.
RESPONSIBILITY too big to shirk
lies ut the door Of each housewife in
this country. How Is she going to
meet 1T? BY saving the foods so abso
lnte'y necessary TO our men at the
front and so doing her great part to
win this war or by letting the other
woman do the saving" while she III
dulgcs herself and her family in their
usual pre-war amounts Of sugar.
flour, bacon and beef?
1t Is n matter for each housewives
conscience to decide and knowing the
staunch spirit Of patriotism which Is
the part of every good American wo.
man, there is no doubt whatever how
she will decide this question.

WHY AMERICA MUST FURNISH
THE FOOD.

The 1917 wheat crop in France was
less than half Of normal, using the
crop of 1913 as basis for compari-
son. There was shortage OF 176,-
100000 bushels, or 53.3 per cent. The
