HELP FOR
THE `HOUSEKEEPER
Family Food Budget Thir"teen Cents
Per Head Per Day
At no time in the history of Can-
ada has wise expenditure of money
by the housekeeper been mor neces-
sary, than it is today. As very woman.
knows, in order to obtain the high-
est food value and to ensure health
when food money . is limited, the
housekeeper 'must havea special
knowledge •of the foods that will best
supply the needs of the family at
lowest cost. It is to meet this prob-
lem of the harassed keeper of the
home that the 'Dominion Department
of :Agriculture has issued a pamph-
let on . healthful meals at low cost,
written by the dietetic experts, Edith
L. Elliott and Laura. C. Pepper. •
Among the many helpful hints is
a schedule of the minimum food sup-
ply for one week for a family of two
adults and three children over two
years of age at 13 cents per day per
person, or a total of $4.65 per week,
Adjustments, of course, may be ne-
cessary as prices vary as to locality,
but the principle remains the same.
This food supply is aimed to - meet
emergency needs such as are unfor-
tunately prevalent among that part of
the population which is living dang-
erously near, or even under, the line
of bare subsistece. The pamphlet is
