MORE FOOD NEEDED AS WAR STORE
London, May 8. Britain requires, as a war reserve. according to calculations made in the current issue of the "British Medical Journal":
The same amount of wheat as we now use annually.
Over a million more tons of potatoes. Nearly a million more tons of onions or other vegetables.
Twenty-seven thousand tors more of butter or vitaminised mar- garine.
Qver a million tons of cheese or other protein-yielding foodstuffs (meat, bacon, cured fish),
Some thousands of tons of dried
- milk.
THE IMMEDIATE NEED
"It follows, then," says
the. "British Medical Journal," "that if we were self-supporting in milk and its products, meat, potatoes, onions, other vegetables, cats and barley, the foodstuffs to be provided from outside sources would be wheat, maize and sugar. To these it would be safe to add a supply of grains suitable för sprouting.
***The immediate need is the storage of a sufficient supply of such foodstuffs as will in them- selves provide a well-balanced "emergency ration": the ultimate need, a need which should be sat- isfied as soon as possible, is to be- come self-supporting in those essen- tial foodstuffs as possible,
**This we can do in so far meat, milk, eggs and vegetables are con cerned, and it would appear, in to far as cats and barley are concern- ed, if agriculture and labour are properly organised and advantage
is taken of the knowledge science
