G'oat Lake Steamships leivini; Port MoOichol on Eat Less Meat I How often has it been said by expert I dietitians that we oui{ht to eat less n;eat. Particularly in the summer months we ought to eat less meat. The ottice boy I knows wh-ic is the matter when be says the boss has a bad stomach. To-day I he ! meat problem is b^comiiig serious, and I those who are familiar with the situation are seeking tlie cooperation of the public to make the supply go as fsr as possible. To 'top eating meat cne must tind a ' <<ubHtiiute, and Ontario is happily placed with having a substitute that costs noth- ing tc produce, which can, when a good home maiket is develo()ed, be handlea at I a price tar below what is the present cost The substitute is hsh. The lakes I and rivers of this Province abound in tish of high food value. Only ten per cent. : of the annual catch is sold within the Province, the remainder being exp<.>rtcd. Fish could be .sold in Ontario at a much I lower price than wnat obtains ou the ' market at present if people would only ' learn to use it more fcMiuently and the i dealers were able to handle it in sutHc- I iently large nuautities to buy more economically. This important consider- ' ation is being placed before the people of the Province by the t>rg»nizatiou of I Resources Committee. It has a two-fold object : If irst, to relieve the drain 011 other food ccmmoduies, and, second, to assist in some way to reduce the cost of ; living. On patriotic grounds, on econ- ' omio grounds and â€" particularly during ' tie hot w eather â€" on the ground of health it is good to eat more hsh.
