This is to conserve wheat so that there will be enough to ship to the starving peoples of Europe and Asia. Wheat is the most satisfactory food to feed the hungry, so the emphasis is on this grain. Of course, we should avoid wasting any food at this time, for many other products besides wheat are scarce, especially meat and butter. One woman who successfully successful-ly did all this wrote of her experiences ex-periences to Miss Norris, who is passing it along to her readers. read-ers. It is a. simple, cheerful story, of how a busy mother trimmed down the waste in her household, and yet served better meals than ever. She also was able to reduce food bills by about a third. Miss Norris commends this woman for her unselfish desire de-sire to help others. At the same time she was rewarded by a substantial montetary saving, sav-ing, no little item in these days of high living costs. Every family, says Miss Norris, could save a good deal of food, even if not as much as this woman did. It is every housetvife's obligation to be as economical as she can in this time of crisis. |
