Douglas” new fall styles; Fellow City Folks, What Do Y ou Eat? DITOR THE STAR: . 1 wish you would tell me what the people of this country, 120 million of them, are eating, if anything. If the people of Los Angeles only ate an apple a day it would take a 85,000-acre mature orchard to supply the town, If the people of New York city only consumed an egg a day it would take 4,000,000 darn good hens, the year thru, to meet the demand. If every family in Seattle had a slice of ham per capita for breakfast there wouldn't be enough hogs in the Skagit valley to supply the hams, If the average American woman did her own baking, and the family used flour as it did when grandmother was a girl, our wheat surplus would be void. What do these folks eat, anyhow? You can take any food commodity, figure the population, figure the minimum that such a population would be likely to consume, and you will find we are not using half the minimum, Did we eat too much in the old days, when the groaning board was the symbol of American hospi- tality? Do we eat less since we quit drinking—that is quit drinking anything appetizing? Were we gluttons 20 years ago, or are we anemic dyspeptics today? Is anybody going to begin again the ancient custom of eating regular meals, or is everyone going to eat less and less? I, as a farmer, would like to know; if this non-eat- ing habit is to become a fixed one in this nation I might as well let my pasture return to forest, and go get me a job in town making automobiles, Respectfully, WM, DENT.
