By winter they will have disappeared. When eggs and canned meats become equally impossible to obtain it will require considerable ingenuity to plan menus.
Milk to Be Cut
* During the summer milk rationing was suspended but beginning next month it” will again be rationed, this time probably. to a pint per-person weekly—half of last winter's allowance. Average egg cons sumption during the year just past is estimated to be just under one weekly. Study of rations here apparently leads Americans to believe that people here do not get enough to eat. Some ‘American visitors have been arriving with quantities of concentrated foods and vitamins. In point || of fact, no one goes hungry and the standard of health is higher than it has ever been. The only deficiency at all noticeable is that of citrus fruits. It has had a certain effect on teeth, finger nails and eyes but the effect has been exceedingly slight and more prevalent among well-to-do classes used to large quantities of the fruits.
