Food Training Camps designated at Montana State Fair
In July 1917 Washington announced the Montana State Fair to be held September 24 29 would serve as a Food Training Camp under Herbert Hoover Food Administrator. The government plans similar camps at major fairs nationwide to promote food conservation and efficiency. A Washington bureau under Ray P Speer will coordinate exhibits and demonstrations with fairs and other agencies to support war efforts. The move marks the first national government cooperation with fairs to present food solutions to the American public.
