Many of the Food Production survey blanks which were distributed in town by the local food committee, have not yet been filled in. It is necessary that this be done at once as the state and county compilations can not be completed without every town making a return. It will help the committee if those who have blanks in their possession will fill them in and bring them to this office or to any member of the committee, or if not convenient to hand them in, to simply fill in and have ready on Saturday when a member of the committee will call and collect the cards.
