ONLY TEN DAYS' WHEAT
SUPPLY IN JULY, 1918
Information and Rulings From
The Federal Food Administra?
tion For Virginia.
LOOKING DACH WARD ANO FOR?
WARD.
Mr. Hoover ?tute.? that our total pro?
duction of fivod values for the rear end
Inn July I, 1918.w?j botwsnn 7 and 9 per
cunt, below the average foi the Ihi.a
previous years, and that had It fallen
to 16 per cent, below, nothing rould
have saved the Allies from famine.
""The war would bs over??rs would be
beaten."
With this disaster averted. It Is per?
mitted nnvr to toll how narrowly we
escaped. IN JULY. 191S. WE WHitK
WITHIN TEN DAYS OF HRING
WITHOUT WllHAT. There wore less
than two million bushels In the United
States? In storage?In transit -any
?rhore:
Normally, we carry sixty million
bushels over for seeil alone, ami DOT er
oefore. even In the worst of crop years,
have ?e carried less than or.o hundred
million bushels over Into th? nnw har?
re?!.
Keduc.d to figures, here U what the
voluntary sacrifice of United Slates
people made possible: In 191617 we
hail n surplus of something like two
hundred million bushels of wheat and
rye, of which we exported L36.00o.ooo
bushels of wheat and 2,100,000 bushels
of rye?rye end wheat being the prime
breadatuffs, In 1917-IS. out of a abort
crop of whont and rye. aud whan the
corn crop w as almost blighted, we sent
141,000,000 bushels of wheat and 13,.
900,000 bushel* of rye--an Increase of
prune breadstuff! exported to tho Al?
lies of 17.4W.0OO bushels?every bushel
of It raved by our people out of a
Ftlhnotmal supply?more spared from
our savings of this year than from our
surplus of the year hi--fnre And fur?
ther, we sent ten million bushels to
neutral nations facing starvation un
Ics we helped them.
And ll Isn't biead alone. We have
built up a surplus of bacon and ham
for use abroad In 1S17-1S. we In
creased by 844,660,000 pounds our pre
rious year's shipments to the Allies
of all sorts of moat products; canned
Old powdered milk, butter, cheese, veg
e( ible oils. lard, etc, sending alto
gethci mine than three billion pounds.
Neither did this Increase come Irotu
Increased production: It, too, repre?
sents what you did not eat ? your meat?
less days, your baconlcsa breakfasts?
the st.siks )ou did not order, the tints
of butter you did not touch; potatoes
creamed Instead of frlnd, and all the
rest of the conservation program faith
full) can led out by a patriotic people.
Ilefore the war, we used to send
enough food to Prance, Great llntaln
am! Italy each year to ration about atx
million men (hiring the year endlug
April. 191S, we sent enough to cone
pletet* ration twenty-one million men.
The corner has now been turned In
this matter of food This does not
no an. however, that the need lor sac?
rifice and care and thrift has passed
only that the crops are belter, and
the situation la In hand because all
lh?< world Is now assured and you are
confident of what Mr Hoover believed
from the beginning: that the people of
these United States can be depended
upon to do what Is needful, so long as
the war lasts, and whenever occasion
Sentands,
'?There has never been anything like
It in history." ? ? ? "We askod the
American people to do mere voluntar?
ily than nny other people has ever
b.en asked to submit to under com lull
?ton. Anil the American people made
sood "
Kven our associates In the war did
not believe It could be done, and Gar
many scoffed, but Mr. Hoover, believ?
ing" noi more than 6 per cent, of the
people larked the spirit of Democracy,
laid: "Go do It!" The 5 per cent,
jald- "It can't be done." hut the 9S
per cent, answered: "Of course it can."
and .lid It.
Which Is your team, the Can'ls or
the Can's?
In sll probability there will not be
the need this year for such sharp self
denial, but there will be the continuing
mod for foresight and care and the
forming of habits of thrift in prepara?
tion for whatsoever the exigencies of
war and disaster may demand of us
We must accumulate a surplus of
prime breadstuffs, and we must square?
ly (sc? the fact that we cannot hope
(o have another (rest harvest like this

before another crop time and harvest
our men In the prime of strength wit4

So *e shall have to keep on savinR.
And the snfest course In nil food con?

Manufacturers ami dealers Hre urgec
lo encourage the salr- and use of Hiom
ready mixed flours, and the Food^ Ad
ministration relies upon householderi
in aiil In thla conservation program bj
purchasing meal for cornbread In ad
ditlon to mixing nt least 20 per cent
of the substitute cr-ri als with the stand
aid wheat flour nt home for nil uses
The GO-00 rule has been superseded
by the above regulations, under which
tltn retail merchant is required lb keep
barley Hour, coin Hour and corn meal
In bulk und sell them In the propor
tlon of our pound to four with stand
artl wheat flour; provided thnt he ma>

II will be noted thai the permitted
substitutes ate limited to those which
can tie used In preparing mixed tlouri
at li'itio* -the olhitfl roronla In the old
list of substitutes being omitted.
All limits on quantity sales of wheat
flour to consumers are now removed,
but moderation In put chasing nnd
economy in using are urged upon the
housewives, on whose voluntary ac
tlon reliance Is largely placed to'en
force the ne< cssary conservation.
MEAT.
Meat and fats ought to be a little
more plentiful In this coming year.
If the hU corn nop dors not dlsap
point In tin- harvesting, for corn means
hogs, n?con and pork ought to lie tea
sonably plentiful and the beef situa
lion Is looking up. Hut If the Food
Administration asks conservation of
meat, it will mean thnt u necessity
for conservation has arisen.
SUGAR.
Sugar will have to be lined very spar?
ingly for all purposes at leusl until
the 0ist of January. There will not
tie really enough sugar for everyon*
again until peace cornea, and even
after peace, we shall all have to go
easy for a time.
But sugar shortage must not stop
canning. If you cannot get enough
sugar for home canning, put up youi
fruit without it If you do not know
how to put up your fruit without sugar
ask your Home Economics Director or
your l.ocal ' Food Administrator for
some of the Food Administration lit
eralure on the subject All fruit? and
vegetables must lie saved.
"Full steam ahead" on cunning?
"Slow" on Sugar.
Sugar is fuel for the body, provid?
ing It with heat and energy. Tha
