Logging Camp Cafeteria 



The Innovation of the Potlatch Lumber Company of Potlatch, Idaho, in 

 introducing the cafeteria system in Its logging operations will be noted 

 with much interest. It Is a progressive step and will help In the food 

 conservation campaign. It eliminates table service and releases man power 

 for other purposes. It teaches men the value of food, gauged by their own 

 appetltles. The cafeteria Idea more closely approximates the actual food 

 requirements of the individual. It encourages the saving of food. Men 

 win purchase only the amount they can consume, and they soon learn to 

 estimate approximately the quantity for a meal.
