In the ship's galleys every effort is made to eliminate waste.

The allied needs in pork products are 150,000,000 pounds monthly,' three times as much as before the war. Anotherwasteellminator on the North Dakota is the potato peeler, shown in the lower photo. Nothing is lost except the actual potato skin. There is a sufficient quantity of po- ACK1ES S of the nation have accepted basis for the enthusiastically the 50-5purchase of wheat flour and are doing their utmost to explain the new regulation to the housewife. This ruling by the U. S. Food Administration requires each purchaser of wheat flour to buy one pound of cereal substitute, one kind or assorted, for every pound of wheat flour. It was necessary to restrict the use of wheat flour in order that the allies and our .fighting forces abroad might be assured of an adequate supply of wheat to meet their vital needs. This supply must come from our savings because we have already sent our normal surplus. Wheat saving pledge cards were forwarded hy the Food Administration to all retail food merchants, and these are being signed and posted in stores This card throughout the country. slates, "We pledge ourselves loyally to carry out the Food Administration program. In accordance with this order we will not sell any wheat flour except where the purchaser buys an equal weight of one or more of the following, a greater use of which in the home will save wheat; Cornmeal, corn flour, edible corn starch, hominy, corn grits, barley flojjr, potato flour, sweet potato flour, soy bean flour, feterlta flour and meals, rice, rice flour, oatmeal, rolled oats and buckwheat flour. Some confusion has resulted on the part of the consumer in construing this 50-5ruling to mean that an equal amount In value of substitutes must be purchased with wheat flour. Tills Is a mistaken idea. The ruling states that the consumer in purchasing flour shall "buy at the same time an equal weight of other cereals." One exception to this ruling Is con. eerning graham flour and whole wheat flow, which may be sold at the ratio of three pounds to five pounds of wheat flour. This provision is made because approximately 25 per cent, more of the wheat berry is used in the manufacture of these flours than standard wheat flour. Another exception la that concerning mixed flours containing less than 50 per cent, of wheat flour, which may be sold without substitutes. Retailers, however, are forbidden to sell mixed flours containing more than 50 per cent, of wheat flour to any person unless the amount of wheat flour substitutes Sold is sufficient to make the total amount of substitutes, Including those mixed in flours, equal to the total amount in wheat flour in the mixed flour. For instance, if any mixed flour is purchased containing 00 per cent wheat flour and 40 per cent, substitutes It la necessary that an additional 20 per cent of substitutes be purchased. This brings It to the basis of one pound of substitutes for each pound of wheat flour. A special exemption may be granted upon application in the case of specially prepared infants' and Invalids food containing flour where the necessity 1 ahown. Some misunderstanding seems to exist on the part of consumers lit assuming that with the purchase of wheat flour one must confine the additional 50 per cent, purchase to one of the substitutes. This Is not the case. One may select from the entire range of substitutes a sufficient amount of each to bring the total weight of all substitutes equal to the weight of the wheat flour purchased. For instance, If a purchase of 24 pounds of wheat flour is made a range of substitutes may be selected i js follows : Cornmeal, 8 pounds; corn grits, 4 pounds; rice, 4 pounds; buckwheat, 2 pounds ; corn starch, 1 pound ; hominy, 2 pounds ; rolled oats, 3 pounds. These substitutes may be used in the following manner: Cornmeal, 8 Pounds. Com bread, no flour; corn muffins or spoon bread, d flour or rice or hominy; 20 per cent substitutes In whole bread. Corn' Starch, 1 Pound. Thickening gravy, making custard, in cake. Corn Grits, 4 Pounds. Fried like mush, used with meal In making corn bread. Rolled Oats, 8 Pounds. to substitutes In bread, one-hal- f substitute in muffins; breakfast porridge, use freely; oatmeal cookiea, oatmeal soup. h Buckwheat Flour, 2 Pounds. substitute in bread, buckwheat cakea.

It's the shortage in ships that is putting the Allies and the United States on wheat rations. Great stocks of wheat are isolated in India, and Australia. At great sacrifice in ship space and use the Allies are forced to secure some wheat from Argentina. On January 1, Australia had stored 100,000,000 bushels of wheat that was ready for export but there were no ships. Then came the new crop with an exportable surplus of 80,000,-00bushels. Now Australia has approximately 180,000,000 bushels waiting for ships. India, at the same time, had 70.000.- 000 bushels of wheat stored for export. During April 50.000.- 000 bushels more out of the new crop will be added to the pile. Argentina closed the last shipping season with 11,000,000 bushels of wheat left in the stock available for export. The new crop will add 135,000,000 to the left over. 0 ONLY AMERICA CAN HELP.
