SIR,—" Janus's " story of the war-time takings at a

small inn " some- where between Cumberland and Cornwall " has yet further implica- tions. It has been pointed out that if the brewers' grain allowance were halved, the remainder would provide food for another 18,000,000 head of poultry, with estimated increased production of something like 2,000,000,000 eggs a year, representing an allowance of four eggs a month for every man, woman and child throughout the country. May it charitably be supposed that, by the powers that be, the point in question has not yet been fully considered?—Yours faithfully, FRANK WYATT., Secretary, London Vegetarian Society. 9 Adam Street, Adelphi, London, W:C. 2.
