Vienua,’ (by mail.-Dxad tickets
and two "meatless" clays a week sug
gest the verge of famine to the per-
son not familiar with Nte in thelaal-
.ties where such precautionary mag:
urea are being applied. Vienna and
the greater part of Austria are at pres
ent subject to the limitation in food
which the bread ticket, wheal bread
proliibition and meatless days imply.
But the fact is that nobody is deprived
of anything by these regnitions, Pe
pie eat as much as before with tiiy’ir-
ierence that some of tle thing they
rat have been prescribed.
The bread ticket systep/aallows ey-
■ry person three ratior’dajly each of
io grammes of rye/bread, or 21<>
zramtes, not quiy‛:a half pound, for
• lie day.' The pefson feeling the need
f more feriyaeous food cun augnent

afes/and, if still unsatisfied after
IhaT; (an have an unlimited quantity
/f ' nockerin" dumplings—! for which
ho Austrian kitchen is justly famous
or he can order u dozen portions of
' schmarn," another Austrian dish of
fame. At a piuch the waiter may be
bribed Into increasing the-bread ra
lion.
It may be ifsked what, under such
ionditions, is the value of the bread
ticket arrangement. The malinger ol
i large Vienna restaurant supplied the
answer.
"The bread ticket prevents the
waste of bread which formerly ob-
kained, he said. “We were in the habit
I putting baskets with rolls and cut
bread on the table. Many of our pa
irons could start to eat as many as
four rolls and not finish a single one.
The remainder had to be thrown into
the swfll barrel. Bight now flour is
too scarce to be fed to pigs.”
A “meatless" day in Vienna and
Austria is a misnomer. In fact it is
merely a "beef-porkless" day, and not
even that altogether. Butchers and
restaurants may on "meatless", or
"leischlose" day* sell any kind ol
meat with the exception of fresh beef,
veal and pork. Pickled and preserved
beef, veal .and pork may be sold, how-
.over', so may fresh mutton and lamb,
every kind of poultry, fresh and pre-
served game and fish. It cannot be
said that the “meatless'' dsy works
a hardship on anybody. Fresh beef
and |s>rk can be bought the day be-
fore for the "meatless" days.
But what really has hit the Viennese
hard is the lack of whipped cream,
without which they formerly could not
drink their coffee. Now only plain
or condened milk may be bad.
Back of these slight deprivations
lies the fact that the hundrods of
thousands of farmers and farm labor
ers now under arms can not be both
soldiers and food producers, nt the
same time. Though the older men,
women anti children have done their
best to grep the cops growing, here
and there with the questionable assist:
ance of Russian and Serb prisoners of
war, the result has not been equal to
i hat of normal times. In additin to
this the army itself has drawn heavily
on the country's meat and flour stuff
More*. Owing to their great bulk and
relatively low food values, vexetables
Can not be taken to the front to each
man in the proportionis of vegetable,
meat amk cereal food he eats when at
Imine. Another drawback is that vege-
Hildes spoil too quickly.
This has resulted in the consump-
tion Xy the army of meat and cereal
fcogs about 25 per cent greater than
wit the same number ol men would
rquire at home. Most of this rer-
resent* bread, fresh beef and pork.
And to connteract the increased need
for these felt by the army, the popula:
Hon nt home had .to make slight Bac-
ri:ices, hence the bread ticket, and the
"resh beef, veal and porkless" day
