THE KITCHEN IS YOUR FORT I - Don’t waste a thing Turn your garbage can upside down until the war is over. j Eat plenty, but eat the substitutes for wheat, meat, *gar and fats suggested by the Food Administration. Millions of men are fighting and working in war industries instead of farming and producing food. Starvation faces France, England and Italy. Hunger is our common enemy as well as the Huns. Lack of food caused the temporary collapse of Italy, and most, of the trouble, in Russia. Food has been a deciding factor in aH wars—whether you know it or not. Germany says she can defeat the allies by starvation. Are you going to let her? Germany is well fed; the allies are not. Before the war, Germany was fourfifths self-supporting; England only onefifth; France one-half; Italy 'two thirds. That is why Germany has the advantage in the Food Fight. I One hundred million Americano like you can lick Germany in the Food Fight. You do your part. The total will count.
