It is imperative, howâ€" ever, that every means should be exercised to conserve our food sup- plies, and to avoid waste. The sol- diersneed meat and flour, and ev- ery other commodity that Canadi- ans can substitute for these are to be used at home, so as to release the meat and flour for overseas transportation. L The Allies look to Canada to re- lieve their food shortage. Both the producer and the consumer. must assist to give that relief, the producer by producing and con-- serving to the utmost of his capaâ€" city and the consumer by substi- tuting perishable and conserving storable foods for export. By such joint action the soldiers of Canada. the Empire and the Allies will be strengthened in the struggle for victory. made 'erent Med 1' Economy in the use of foodstufi‘s. particularly of Wheat. bacon and beef. is imperatiVe.

We were not aware then of the Opinion of The Owen Sound Sun, which, it will be seen, shifts lthe responsibilitV to Premier Bor- den and his Cabinet, who are mild- ly charged with a record of in- competency. Dr. Clark may not be as wise a‘sl the writer who furnishes the po-i litical fodder for The Sun, but he. had wisdom enough to predict that the contest would be fought on the faults of the Government, mythical stories, and indulgence in person- ,alities. The Sun has just started 'on the course Dr. Clark hOped would not be indulged in. We do not fancy the Borden Government‘ has made no mistakes. No Govern- ment ever did go through a war campaign without making mistakes. If any other gOV ernment had gone through the crucial period of the past three years, would it have come out any cleaner?
