Food Guide for War Service at Home by Katharine Blunt,Florence Powdermaker,Frances Lucy Swain,United States Food Administration Pdf

During the World War I era, the Collegiate Section of the United States Food Administration was asked to prepare a simple statement about the food situation affected by the war. The statement needed to be suitable for elementary and high school teachers, high-school pupils, and the general public. The demand for this statement arose because of the wide adoption of the three courses on this subject that were being sent out weekly to universities, colleges, and normal schools throughout the country. This little volume is the response to that request, written by Katharine Blunt from the University of Chicago, Frances L. Swain from the Chicago Normal School, and Florence Powdermaker from the United States Department of Agriculture. It provides a concise summary of the food situation during World War I, with the aim of educating the public about the importance of conserving food and supporting the war effort. The book includes practical advice for households on how to conserve food, as well as information on the impact of the war on food production and distribution.

Food Guide for War Service at Home by Katherine Blunt,Frances Swain,Florence Powdermaker Pdf

The long war has brought hunger to Europe; some of her peoples stand constantly face to face with starvation. To meet all this great food need in Europe—and meeting it is an imperative military necessity—we must be very careful and economical in our food use here at home. We must eat less; we must waste nothing; we must equalize the distribution of what food we may retain for ourselves; we must prevent extortion and profiteering which make prices so high that the poor cannot buy the food they actually need; and we must try to produce more food. For all this there is needed a "food education" of all our people. For the purpose of diffusing this information this little book has been prepared under the direction of the Food Administration. By following the suggestions for food conservation herein contained every one can render his country an important war service. As part of our mission to publish great works of literary fiction and nonfiction, Sheba Blake Publishing Corp. is extremely dedicated to bringing to the forefront the amazing works of long dead and truly talented authors.
