"1 am informed that in many sec-
tions in which fruits and vegetables
have beon produced in abundance the
people already are canning and drying
them in large quantities. But we
should be content with nothing short
of the perfection of organization and
should be unwilling I hat anything
should be lost. In this hour of peril,
1 am concerned, as I know you are,
with the necessltv of avoiding waste.
Every bushel of potatoes properly
stored, everv pound of vegetables
properly put by for future use, every
jar of fruit preserved, add that much
to our insurance of victory, add that
much to hasten the end of this con-
flict. To win we must have maximum
efficiency In all directions. We can
not win without Complete and effec-
tive concentration of all our efforts
"We can all aid by increasing our
consumption of perishable products.
Such of them as wo can efficiently
utilize, wo must utilize, and, by so do-
ing, relieve the strain on our store of
staples. Wo must aim to consume
these things locally so far as possible
and thus relieve the pressure on trans-
portation agencies, freeing them for
the more efficient handling of pro-
ducts required for military purposes.
What we fcan not presently consume
wo must conserve.
"The service we are asking the peo-
ple to render in this matter is a public
service. It Is one primarily for the
household. Upon the houswife much
of the burden of the task will fall. I
join you in your appeal to the women
of the nation, whether living In a city,
town, or country, to devote their time,
so far as It may be feasible and nec-
essary, to the performance of this
very essential work. Among them
some will be found who are fitted by
experience to teach others, and they
will put their knowledge whole heart -
edlv at the servico of their neighbors.
• 1 am sure that we may confidently
count upon the co-operation of the edi-
tors of the nation In disseminating the
necessary Information. 1 am equally
certain that the governors and the
food committees appointed by them In
the Htates in which this problem is
urgent will leave nothing undone to
attack It promptly and to assist in
solving it.
"Faithfully yours.
"(Signed) WOOD 1U)W WILSON.
AN APPEAL TO T11K WOMEN.
A memorable appeal from President
Wilson to tho women ot the nation,
whether living In city, town, or coun-
try has been issued through Secre-
tly of Agriculture 1). F. Houston to
take immediate steps to avoid a
threatened loss ot vast amounts of
perishable fruits and vegetables, es-
pecially in 24 stales that have asked
governmental usslstance und Informa-
tion on the. subject of "How House

all been completed by a special com-

"Mr. Secretary and Oontlemen of
the Committee:
"I very earnestly desir to commend
your plans and to second your efforts
to socure the conservation of surplus-
es of perishable food products. Out
of the depths of their patriotism the
farmers of the nation gave an imme-
diate and cffoctlve response to my
appeal to increase production. Pro-
vidence favored them and we have not
only the prospect of increased crops
of a number of staples but also the
certainty of a largo production of
fruit# and vegetables
"But increased production, import-
ant as it is, is only a part of tho solu-
tion of the food problem. It is of the
first importance that we take care of
what has been raised and make It
available for consumption. This task
is of peculiar urgency with reference
to our perishable farm products. It Is
essential not only that adequate
measures be taken to secure their con-
servation but also that tin department
of agriculture redouble its efforts to
