How many potatoes are you eating?
This is a question the Food Adminis
tration wants every loyal American to
ask himself or herself. Strange as It
may seem, the eating of potatoes at
this time is a practical war service,
according to a recent Food Adminis
tration bulletin, which points out that
this nation now has a large potato
surplus on hand and that this valuable
food, unless eaten within the next two
months, will be lost through sprouting
and rotting. By eating of potatoes
liberally, every family can save a sub
stantial amount of other food, particu
larly of wheat. By eating up the sur
plus of potatoes the nation will also
prevent serious loss to the potato
producer, who needs to be encouraged
to grow maximum crops during the
eoming year.
"Domestic science experts have fig
ured that: One ordinary baked potato
equals in nourishment one thick slice
of wheat bread.
"Potatoes at one and one-half to two
cents a pound have more food value
than bread at ten cents a loaf.
"Potatoes are healthful. They im
prove the general tone of the system
by their wholesome action on the di
gestive organs. They are easiest on
the stomach of all vegetable foods.
They are easy on the kidneys because
of the minimum of nitrogen they con
tain. They are easy on the Intestines
because of the tenderness and small
proportion of their cellulose and the
fine division of starch.
"Potatoes are valuable in the diet of
the sick. They can be eaten with
benefit by people suffering from dys
pepsia, anemia, diabetes. Bright's dis
ease, cardiac affections, intestinal
troubles, constipation, hyperacidity,
artiritis, gout, liver complaints, etc.
“Always serve potatoes with meat.”
concludes the Food Administration
bulletin. "Never serve bread and po-
tatoes.”

How to Increase World’s Bread Ration
With famine creeping through Eu
rope. and every nation struggling to
produce enough food to sustain life,
the American farmer has a duty that
he can not shirk. America must ship
food to Europe for our soldiers.
America must supply bread to starv
ing peoples. No matter what other
crops are raised, more acres should
be devoted to bread grains. "Do your
bit. Mr. Farmer." saya a Food Ad
ministration bulletin.

pends upon you in this world war.”

been cut down, meatless days and
