"Food Will Win the War"
Everyone has seen the posters which read that "Food Will Win the War".12 This has never been more true as winter approaches. The soldiers overseas need as much food as they can get to hold out through the winter. Obviously, gardens cannot be grown now as winter approaches here as well, but there are other methods of helping out such as simply not wasting any wheat, corn, barely or other vegetables since those are in high demand overseas. Not only do our soldiers need the food but the other Allied soldiers do as well. The Germans are trying to stop the British from importing food.13 That only adds to the importance of our efforts here at home to cut our consumption and save for the troops.
Food will win the war and it is something that you can do to help out! Cut your consumption today and waste nothing!

Remember the War Gardens?
These slogans cannot be forgotten even as winter approaches. Remember all of those fruits and other food items that you spent canning in your kitchen? Remember all of the time spent with your children working in the gardens? That was all done so that now you can consume those food items and keep the more important food like the wheat and vegetables to send to the soldiers over seas.
It's approaching the holiday season, don't you want the soldiers to have a little extra on Christmas? Preserve what you can and waste nothing! The troops need as much help as they can get!
