ALLIES DEMAND MORE CEREALS | Laeieah Meat Restrictions Re- laxed to Effect Greater Wheat Savings. id — ARGENTINE ARRIVALS SHORT. Meat Supply Here Considerably Ere larged — Food Administration, However, Warns Against Waste, The allies have made further and increased demands for ~ breadstuffs, ~ these enlarged demands being Caused to some degree by shortage in arrivals from the Argentine, It is, therefore, necessary for the U. 8. Food Adminis. « tration to urge a still further reduction in the consumption of bread and bread stuffs generally if we are to meet our export necessities, The Food Admin istration has issued a statement ex Plaining the situation tn detail, partic. ularly the reasons which lead it, for the purpose of centéring effort for the tine being upon the cereal situation to relax temporarily the restrictions on meat consumption. Experience shows, this statement says, that the consumption of bread stuffs is intimately associuted with the consumption of meat, For various reasous our supplies of meat for the next two or three months are consid erably enlarged, and we can supp’g the allies with all of the meat products which transportation facilities render Possible and at the same time some what increase our own consumption In these circumstances the Food Ad ministration considers tt wise to relax the voluntary restrictions on meat con sumption to some extent with a view to further decreasing bread consump tion, Conservation of food must be ad- justed to meet necessities from time to time, for neither production, nor al- Ned demands are constant factors, nor , can any of these factors be anticipated “ for long periods in advance in the dis- turbed conditions in which we at pres- ent live, While the world situation is not one that warrants any relaxation in the efforts to eliminate waste or to 2 relax economy in food, the Adminis tration desires to secure better adjust ment In food balances. So long as the present conditions continue the only special restrictions we ask are the beefless and porkless Tuesday, The meatless mea! and the porkless Saturday are no longer asked, The farmers of the United States are responding to the national call to increase hog production. Their in- crease, to all appearances, is being at- tained more rapidly, Of more imme diate importance, however, are several complex factors which have effected an immediate increase in meat sup plies, The transportation shortage before the government took over the rail roads, the bad weather in January and early in February, the large percent- age of immature corn tn the last har- vest and the necessity of feeding this corn as rapidly as possible to save it from decay, have not only*resulted. in backing up the animals—particularly hogs—on the farms for a longer pe riod of feeding, but have resulted in a great increase in their average weight and will result, with improved trans portation conditions, which already ap- pear, in larger than normal arrivals at market for the next two or three months, The weight of hogs coming to the market for the past two weeks indicates an increase in weight of from an average of 203 pounds last i] year to the almost unprecedented average of 232 pounds, or a net in- crease in their meat value of over 15 per cent. This is a distinct addition - to the nation's meat supply. It there- fore now seems certain that we have such enlarged supplies for at least some months to come, that we can not only increase our exports to the allies to the full extent of their transporta- tion facilities, but at the same time can properly increase our domestic consumption. The response of the public to our re yents for reduced consumption of wheat during the past few months has been most gratifying, and this service alone has enabled the government dur ing @is period to provide such sup plies as transportation to the allies permitted, The Administration also suggests that in those parts of the country where the old fashioned home preser- vation of pork ts still the custom, this practice should be extended at the Present time, as It will relieve the bur den upon transportation to and from the packing houses and is economical- ly sound as saving the cost of packing operations and at the same time will provide home supplies of pork to last over the months of decreased supplies, The Food Administration desires to repeat that It does not want to give the impression that these are times when simplicity and moderation of liv- ing are not critically necessary, but that its sole desire is to secure an ad- Fjustment between our diiferent food supplies acd meet changing conditions from time .to time and to keep the pub Me fully and frankly advised of its position with the full confidence and f rsbssaps that whenever li becomes nec. essary renewed appeals for saving will met the same loyal response as in the Annual Estimate Following is an estimate of the necessary ex- Sottonwood. idaho, durieg the fiscal year beste fon’ 1. , during tl year > ning May 7, 1918, to-wit: For the payment of officers, employes, water rent for fire protection, cross walks, streets and alleys, street lights, and all other regular or inci- dental expenses, the sum of SEVEN THOUSAND DOLLARS ($7,000.00).
