to cease tomorrow, the toll of actual
dead from starvation within the Ger
man lines would double or treble the
6,000,000 or 6,000,000 of men who have
been actually killed by Germany and
her allies in arms. The 10.000,000 peo
ple in occupied Belgium and Northern
France would have died of starvation
had it not been for us and the Allies.
We must build our food resources
to stand ready for any demands upon
us by the Allies. It is of no purpose
,to us to send millions of our best to
France if we fail to maintain the
strength of their men, women and
children on our lines of communica

reservoir of men, the last reservoir of

which the Allied world must depend

we are to be free men.

J RESULTS FIRST YEAR OF
f FOOD ADMINISTRATION
Now is the time to eat and to pre
serve home grown products. Perish
able fruits are coming on the market,
the gardens are making available daily
supplies of food that will take the
place of the commercial canned ar
ticles that are needed for shipment
abroad. Sugar has been made avail
able for home canning purposes and
the supply is go'od at the present time.
The home garden and the canning of
its products means more this year
than it ever did before because it will
play a very important part in keeping
the fighting forces supplied with tlie
kind of food they need at the time
they need it most.
i
America expects every civilian to
do his or her duty in the same spirit
as she expects each soldier when the
command comes, TO GO OVER THE
TOP" without turning to see if his
neighbor had gone first.
We have often quoted that old
verse, "Gather your rus;;s while ye
may," and we can well now change It
to "gather your vegatables," for by so
doing we can accomplish great good.
"We stand bnhird our boys In
France and we wiil not call it a sacri
fice but a privilege to do our bit to
ward feeding them Over There."
Emma V. Milliken.
Conserve, reserve and preserve all
of these fine fruits and vegetables
that are now within your reach; you
will need them tho coming winter.
