Food Control Corner
Beef and bacon are needed overseas
in increasing quantities. They are
foods especially suited to the require-
ments of the me.. who are eghting
and those doing heavy physical labor.
The scarcity of fodder and the greater
call for meat have compelled the Al- zerland, and according to the rules

same time the needs of th., soldiers My first sight of a German Fritz
and war workers have increased the clumping down the streets in his nen-
necessary meat consumption.
Imports of beef and bacon into
Great Britain from Sweden, Denmark
end Holland have been reduced to a
very small amount, whereas all three
countries formerly supplied large
quantities, The United Kingdom is
thrown more than ever• upon the
North 'American continent for these
commodities. Moreover, the en-
trance of, the United States into the
war has greatly increased the require-
ments of both beef and bacon for the
United States Army.
The soldiers need beef and bacon
and they can only be supplied if the
civilian populations of Canada and the
United States will reduce their con-
sumption of these foods. A saving
of one ounce of meat per person per
day, and increased production of beef
and bacon on this continent, would go
a long way towards meeting the
armies' requirements.
