FOREWORD
Food will win the war, and the nation whose food resources are best
conserved will be the victor. This is the truth that our government
is trying to drive home to every man, woman and child in America. We
have always been happy in the fact that ours was the richest nation
in the world, possessing unlimited supplies of food, fuel, energy
and ability; but rich as these resources are they will not meet
the present food shortage unless every family and every individual
enthusiastically co-operates in the national saving campaign as
outlined by the United States Food Administration.
The regulations prescribed for this saving campaign are simple and
easy of application. Our government does not ask us to give up three
square meals a day--nor even one. All it asks is that we substitute as
far as possible corn and other cereals for wheat, reduce a little our
meat consumption and save sugar and fats by careful utilization of
these products.
There are few housekeepers who are not eager to help in this saving
campaign, and there are few indeed who do not feel the need of
conserving family resources. But just how is sometimes a difficult
task.
