tration bulletin, w h'ch points out that
this nation now has a large potato
surplus on hand and that this valuable
food, e a iv ss eaten wtthtn the next tw o
months, w ill be lost through sprouting
slid rutting. By eating of potatoes
(liberally, every fam ily can sa v e a sub
sta n tia l am ount of other food, particu
larly of wheat. By eating up the sur
plus of potatoes th e uatlon will also
prevent serious loss to the potato
