Show ! Wheatless and Meatless Days ; A Proclamation to the Patriotic Men and Women of Utah. When the rail came we willingly gave our sons to the great strug- j ;;le. Now comes another call one that we, and we only, can answer ;! TIIE CALL TO SAVE. We have been askei that before, and we have responded nobly. ! '; Now, however, we are asked not only to save, but to save, more, so ; that the black day on which we might be forced to go without may bo ; jitit back on the terrible calendar of war. !l But more than that. We are asked to save so that our boys on the battlefields may be not just supported, but kept alive for the next ' ! bin mouths, for upon them and upon us depends the outcome of the war. OUR DUTY is to buy or make only Victory bread. ; Victory Bread is from 5 to 20 per cent of other eereals, ; mised with white flour. Graham or whole wheat is Victory ! bread. ; '' To observe strictly the wheatless days, the meatless days and ; the porkless days. ! J WHEATLESS DAYS Moudays and Wednesdays With one !; wheatless meal daily, preferably the evening meal. ; ; Wheatless means no crackers, pastries, macaroni, breakfast foods ; ! or cereals containing flour. (Exceptions Flour for thickening V gravies or as a binder in cornbread or other cereal breads.) ;! Wheatless Days and Meals Mean Use Victory Bread. ; ; MEATLESS DAYS Tuesdays; also ona meatless meal daily. ; !; Meatless means no hog products, no cattle products, no sheep ! I products. ;! Meatless means to use fish, poultry and eggs. ; PORKLESS DAYS Tuesdays and Saturdays. ! Porkless means no bacon, no pork, no ham, no lard, no pork ; ', products, either fresh or preserved. ' j! On other days use mutton or lamb in preference to beef or pork. ; And it all means conservation, saving, self-denial, sacrifice, grim ; and determined. Not for our neighbors, but for ourselves, for unless we ' translate at once our savings of wheat and beef and pork into shells ! ;! and ships and soldiers we cannot hope to win the war. , j W. W.
