CONSERVING THE HEN I
To the other food restrictions there has been added
the chickenless day. The order, unlike all the other re
strictions. came without advance notice or hint. It will
work no special hardship to abstain from the meat ot this
fowl for a period of ten weeks, and the prohibition will
enable housewives to secure at a reasonable price all the
eggs they need to “put down in glass" for use next winter.
I'nder this plan the double purpose of conserving eggs
and of saving in the cost of food would be achieved.
Prohibition of traffic in the universally favorite
fowl is another object lesson for the American people. It i
is teaching them how precious and how scarce food is. and
bow necessary it is to conserve all foods. We are just be
ginning to conserve food. Restrictions are certain to be
added, and it is our duty to observe them strictly without
complaint. If food is to win the war—and no one doubts
it—America’s duty is supreme. We have the food, and
we must save it for our allies, who have not enough, who
already feel the pinch of hunger and unless we help them,
will starve.
While you are waiting for the Third Liberty Loani
don't overlook the thrift stamps. !
