WHY WE MUST SAVE FOOD.
Tlio 1017 whent crop In France was
less than half normal, using tho crop
of 1013 as u bnsls of comparison.
There was n shorlngo of 170,000,000
bushels, or G3.3 per cent The potato
crop was omy within one-third of nor
mal. Tho sugar beet crop showed a
deficit of 07.9 per cent Her meat
herds in the early fall showed a short
age of 1,800,000 unimals.
Those aro a few of tho reasons
America must feed her associates In
the war. Thoy aro no longer able to
feed themselves, and unless wo como
to tho rescue aro faco to faco with
starvation. And starvation means de
feat in tho war.
