HOOVER ISSUES HIS FIRST LESSON TO HOUSEWIVES (Continued From Page One.j Printed on each card are oover s rules, by which you can help Uncle l. Sam win the war through the kitchen ' Summed up, the doctrine i3: "Use Tess wheat, meat, milk, fats, ' sugar and fuel. ''"TTsto mnro friiito vpp-ptahlps nnrt foods not suitable to be sent to the a camps or firing lines. "Buy food grown close to your home. This reduces the food distri bution problem and gives the railroad? more facilities for war materials and troops!." "The rules are simple and easy," said Hoover tonight. "Any one can ; follow them. All of us must.f Win the war by giving your own dally serv-( ice. ' ' S "you can save wheat by having one wheatless meal a day. Use corn, oat ,meal, barley or rye bread and non X wjieat breakfast food- Order bread 24 "hours in advance, so your baker won't over-bake. Cut the loaf, on the t&ble as required. Use stale bread for cooking and toast. Eat less cake ' and pastry. "Save the meat by eating beef, - .mutton, or pork not more than once - a day. Substitute fresh vegetables . and fish. Serve smaller portions. Serve stews instead of steaks. Use all left-overs. This means moat ' enough for everyone at mtsonabie prices. "Save milk by using every drop;! give the children plenty, but use but-' ter milk and sour milk for making " cheese and cooking. Use less cream. "Save fats. -We are the world's greatest fat wasters. Butter is essen tial to child growth, use it on the table but not in cooking. Fry fewer things. Soap contains fats. Don't waste.it.' -Make your own washing soap at home . out of saved fats. . "Save sugar. 'We use three times as much pery person as our allies. Use less candy and sweet drinks. Do not stint the use of sugar in. putting up .jams and fruit. They save butter. "Save fuel. Coal comes from a dis- tance. Railways are over burdened hauling war materials. Help relieve them by burning fewer fires. .' Use -: wood when you can. -- ."Use perishable foods. Fruits and '. vegetables we have in' abundance. As j a nation we eat too little green stuffs. V Double these and improve your health. - Store potatoes and other roots prpp- erly and they will keep. Begin now to can or dry all surplus garden stuffs . "Use local, supplies. Patronize your '-. local producer.
