The present axceaslve coat of
food is aot Justified. There la no
corresponding shortage of supply In
. America. ,. Nerertheleis, tha situation
la vary serious. The doty is laid up
' oa ua to raise not only food enough
. for ourselves, but so much, mora to
sapd abroad that In spite of the sub
marine, enough, may reach France
and England to keep them supplied
Unless we can feed both our own
. peojple and 1themn, wh,o are fighting
for. as across, the water, the great
cause which wa faava Jolnsd will be
lost
"The waste In food ' amounts at
,t laaat lo $Vp a year for erery family
la America, The, watte(of. a single
slice of bread In; arery home means
the dally waata of a mllltoa loaves.
The $1,060,000.90 of waste which
takes pleace yearly la tha households
K of, America, can and. should be stop-
v Hd. , . .,-
Tha waya of thrifty living are, not

Deed , do little more than return to
tha frugal feefyltt of .an aajrller, (day,
To purchase wisely; to , lose nothing
for laek of proper, care; to serve no
mora than hunger demands; to serve
again tba unused portions; to pre
, serve la times of plenty against the
lean month ahead; to save wheat
for Franca and England by eating f
more corn ptkraelvaa ; ibeoause they
do not bake at home aad corn bread
Is almost unknown; these are some
of the means of helping to save the
waste, aad win the war, .
'Tha women of , America have
never failed to answer auch a call
as cornea to them now. The saving
of food is within their sphere. With
out food conservation we cannot win
tha. war. .. The women who conserve
the food aapply of America and her
allies render a high service to their
country aad to all humanity as well,
la very truth, the outcome of the
world war la in . the hands of the
women ao less than la tha hands of
the men.. :. :
"Again I , ask , your co-operatton.
Let aa work together in whole heart
ed response to tha patriotic duty to
which are ara called. Let us make it
the purpose aad tha motto of every
household la America to save the
waste and win the war. .

EliTI!! CLAIMS
SHOV REAL I'iGOiUlTY
The following exemption , claims
were made in one western , state
on registration day: , .
Have planted a war garden. -Once
discharged from the &ilva"-
tion army. . ' ., ;
Blood makes me sick.
My trigger finger Is numb. ?
Am the only ibarber in town.
Am a vegetarian.
Engaged to a girl who Is a 'con
scientious objector" and thinks I
should follow her wishes Inasmuch
as I am to be her husband.
IT
OE, EASY, SURE
Dry In a- Is a process within the
reach of every American household.
It ia simple, easy and- sure. It in
volves little or no expense and com
paratively little time. -A house
keeper may conduct drying opera-
tlona and entertain her afternoon
tea guests atone and tba same time.
All she need do Is to make an occa
sional visit to her kitchen or ber out
door dryer to watch the tempera
ture to which tha food Is exposed.
In this way she may provide for the
winter aeeds of her. household with
out sacrificing present enjoyment
There haa never been a time, when
drying waa aa vital as this year. The
war makes food thrift imperative.
Tha production of foodstuffs will be
unusually abundant because of the
wide-spread planting of food gar
dens brought about by the campaign
of the food garden commission. Not
less than two million of these gar
dens are now thriving. Nature will
yield more vegetables than the peo
ple can consume during the summer.
To save the .surplus is a national
need. Because of the European .sit
uation this need ibecomes Interna
tional as well..
Tin -cans are scarce. ' This has
forced a run on the glass jar supply,
a run as. urgent aa one on a bank
In time of panic Glass jars have
already advanced In price. This con
dition Increases the importance of
drying on a national scale. The only
way to bring, this about Is for every
household to do Its share. . Food
stuffs should be dried in every home
and In a larger way in every com
munity.' Groups of. families should
form community drying clubs.' ' By
doing this, they can buy highly ef
ficient apparatus at, slight Individual
COSt., i '
Dried vegetables snd fruits are ss
good as those which are fresh., The
drying robs them of none of their
flavor or. food value. A big saving
In the, cost of. living can be made
by drying vegetables and fruits dur
ing the summer season, for the rea
son, that the food products are obtained-
at the time of lowest cost
and are, ready for use at the time
of winter's highest cost. '
