SEVEN IOhVES OF BREAD FOR EVERY PERSON M
 U. s. SAVED FR0n WASTE
Farmers and Threshermen patrietl- eslly Respond to Call of Sos6
 Administration.

Prom Information received by the .. $. Food Admlnisi ration from the principal grain growing states, n h pew possible to announce with fair ac- curacy the amount of wheat saved last harvest hy improved methods of han ding According to official calcuta- tions, efforts toward cleaner threshing saved fully l6,0Oo 000 bushels of wheat with corresponding savings of other small grain harvested and threshed ia Il similar manner. Ip addition. other states, though unable to furnish fig ures. reported greatly reduced harvest losses.
 The figure for wheat alone Is equiv aient to seven one-pound loaves of bread for every person in the United States and represents food that form erly was either m absolute loss or was recovered to only slight extent by poultry and livestock. While Op- portunities in this branch of conserva- ton were large, the quantity of grain recovered surpasses early expecta- tlons It is noteworthy also that re- suits were secured principally through voluntary cooperation
 No conservation measure of the Food Administration, il is declared, has received more wholehearted sup port than that pledged and rendered by farmers and threshermen toward reducing grain waste at its source.
