Atlanta, Ga.,, May.—"Every nerve
must be strained, and every hour of
time used, to produce and conserve
every pound of food supply in this
hour of the Nation's need," said
President H. G. Hastings of the Geor
gia Chamber of Commerce upon his
return from Washington last week,
where he went for a conference with
Assistant Secretary of Agriculture
1 Vrooman and other officials of the
U. S. Department Of Agriculture.
“The food supply of the U. S.,”
said Mr. Hastings “considering our
own people alone, is almost below
the danger line. Further hundreds
of million dollars worth are going to
be needed for export to Europe, to
feed the men on the battle line in
rFance and Belgium, who are fight
ing our bottles and who must be sup
plied with food from America. The
South is the only section of this coun
try that has any chance to material
ly increase the food supply of the
nation, and Georgia, and the cotton
belt in general are so situated as to
be able to plant something almost ev
ery month in the year, and this must
be done.

South next fall, printer and spring,
for they will all be needed to feed
the industrial population in the east
and for exportation to the battle
lines in France and Belgium,
“The effort made- to increase the
acreage in food crops this Spring, is

in the work. There must be a

In addition to being-an economi
cal food, milk is usually easily digest
ed and requires no cooking or other
preparation for theiy tablfe. Special
ists of the department have found* al
so, that it is digested better when
taken with other foods.
.There are innumerable ways to use
milk in cookery, such as in puddings,
blancmange, soups, chowder, sauces,
“juket,” etc., and in all these ways
it is both appetizing and nourishing.

MILK AS A FOOD
FURNISHES. NOURISHING MA
TERIAL AT RELATIVELY LOW
Fron^ U. S. Department Agriculture
Economy in the diet does not al
ways depend upon limiting the use of
certain foods, but sometimes it is,a
question of actually increasing the
use of foods Which furnish nutritive
material at relatively low cost. Milk
belongs to the latter class, and the
housewife.would do well to study its
food value and decide whether her
family is using as much as it should,
The average person in this country
uses only a little more than ha|f a
pint of milk daily, and this quantity
can very profitably be increased when
safe milk is available.
Many people think of milk only
as a beverage, but if they understood
that it te in reality a nourishing food
they would increase their daily altow-
anee.
We eat food for two main reasons:
First, to renew body wastes and pro
mote growth by forming new tissuee
end fluids; and, second, to supply
energy for carrying on body func
tions. Milk contains the body-build
ing materials (protein and mineral
substances, such as lime and phosy
phorous) and laso supplies enei

The Dry Chicago Federation, Rev.
Philip Yarrow superintendent, has
formally suggested to the mayor of
the city that he issue a proclamation
calling upon all people vpluntarily to
stop drinking. “Let the city council
place on the city hall an electric sign,
reading, ‘Stop Drinking.’ Let every
priest, rabbi, and minister, every
school principal, every .dub president,
every social, religious and labor lead
er cry out against the shameful ini
quity of the drinW evil. It should al
so be regarded as a/ mark of dishon
or for any patriotic club or home to
serve intoxicating liquors in these
war days.”
Nation-wide prohibition was urged
at the opening meeting of the annual
conference of the National Congress
of Mothers and Parent-Teacher As
sociation, meeting tit Washington, D.

President Wilson and urged mothers

ture, circulated recently in Petoskey,
was signed by practically every man
to whom it was presented.
I believe that the Federal govern
ment ehould immediately prohibit the
manufacture of alcoholic liquors for
beverage purposes,” says Charles W.
Bryan, Mayor of Lincoln, Neb. “The
people of the United States will need
the foodstuffs that are wasted in tile
manufacture of liquor. We cannot
continue to undermine the physical
and moral manhood of the country
and continue to reduce the efficiency
both of . the producers and the de
fenders of the country if we hope to
bring to a speedy and successful ter
mination the tremendous conflict
which tiie nation is engaged in. Con
gress should act at once.”
“Whatever action the Federal gov
ernment takes in the matter of war
time prohibition to save the grain
will meet with my endorsement,”
said Governor Burnquist of Minne
sota. He added that he was already
taking steps to conserve his state’s
grain and food supply.
