PAGE SIX THE MALHEUR ENTERPRISE VALE, OREGON, SATURDAY, JUNE 22, 198 i U.S. Of Must Cut Use Wheat by One-Half America Consumed 42,000,000 Bushels Monthly. From Now Until Harvest Must -Use Only 21,000,000. RATION PER PERSON IS 1 POUNDS OF WHEAT PRODUCTS WEEKLY Military Necessity Calls for Greater Sacrifice Here Allied War Bread Must Be Maintained Our Soldiers and t Sailors to Have Full Allowance. . If we are to furnish the Allies with the necessary propor- Hon of wheat to maintain their war bread from now until -the next harvest, and this is a military necessity, we must reduce our monthly consumption to 21,000,000 bushels a month, a3 against our normal consumption of about 42,000,000 bushels, or 60 per cent, of our normal consumption. This is the situa tion as set forth by the U. S. Food Administration at Washing ton. Reserving a margin for distribution to the army and for special cases, leaves for general consumption approximately 112 pounds of wheat products weekly per person. The Food Administration's statement continues: Many of our consumers are dependent upon bakers' bread. Such bread must bo durable and therefore, requires a larger proportion of wheat products than cereal breads baked in the household. Our army and navy require a full allowance. The well-to-do in our population can make greater sacrifices in the consumption of wheat products titan can the poor. In addition, our population in the agricultural districts, where the other cereals are abun dant, are more skilled in the preparation of breads from these other cereals than the crowded city and industrial populations. With improved transportation conditions we now have avail able a surplus of potatoes. We also have in the spring month3 a surplus of milk, and we have ample corn and oats for human consumption. The drain, on rye and barley, as substitutes, has already greatly exhausted the supply of these grains. To effect the needed saving of wlient we nre wholly dependent upon the voluntary assistance of tho American people niul we ask that tho following rules shall ho observed : 1. Householders to use not to exceed a total of 1V4 pound.s per week of wheat products per person. This mentis not moro than Hi pounds of iclory bread containing the required percentage of substitutes and one-halt pound of cooking Hour, macaroni, crnckers, pastry, pies, cakes, wheut breakfast cereals, all combined. 2. Public eating places and clubs to oliservo two wheatless days per week, Monday and Wedm-Mlny, as at present. In addition thereto, not to servo to anjj one guest at any one meal an aggregate of breadstuffs. mncnronl, crackers, pastry, pies, cakes, wheat breakfast cereals, containing a total of more than two ounces of wheat flour. No wheat products to ho served unless specially ordered. Public ent lug establishments not to buy more than six pounds of wheat products for each ninety meala served, thus eon forming witli the limitations requested of the householders. 3. Retailors to sell not more than one-eighth of a barrel of Hour to any town customer at any one time and not moro than ono-qunrtor of a barrel to any country customer at any ono time, and in no caso to sell wheat products without tho sale of an equal weight of other cereals. 4. Wo ask tho bakers and grocers to reduco tho volume of Victory bread sold, by delivery of tlio three-quarter pound loaf where ono pound was sold bsfore, and corresponding proportions, in other weights. Wo also ask bakers not to Increase tho amount of their wheat Hour purchases, beyond 70 per cent, of the average monthly amount puri-hahcd In the four months prior to March 1. fi. Manufacturers using wheat prod ucts for non-food purposes should cease such use entirely. 0. There is no limit upon the use of other cereals, Hours, nnd meals, corn, bailey, buckwheat, potato Hour, et cetera, .Man thousand families throughout tho land are now using no wheat prod ucts whatever, except a ' very small amount for cooking purposes, and arc doing so In perfect health and satisfac tion. There Is no reason why all of tho .Xnierlcan people who are ablo to cook In their own households cannot subsist perfectly well witli tho use of less wheat products than one and one half pounds a week, and wo specially ask the well-to-do households In tho country to follow this additional pro gramme In order that we may provide the necessary marginal supplies for those parts of the community less able to adapt themselves to so largo a pro portion of substitutes. In order that we shall bo ablo to make the wheat exports that are ab solutely demanded of us to maintain the civil population and soldiers of the allies and our own army, wo propose to supplement tho voluntary co-opera-(Ion of the public by a further limita tion of distribution, and wo shall place at once restrictions on distribution which will ho adjusted from time to time In secure as nearly equitable dis tribution us possible. With tho arrival of harvest wo i.hould lie ablo to relax such restrictions, Until then ve ask for the necessary patience, sscrlllce and co-operation of tho distributing trades. FACE the FACTS LET us face the facts. Tho war situation is critical. Unless the Allies fight as they never yet have fought, defeat threatens. Hungry men cannot fight at their best; nor hungry nations. France, England, and Italy are going hungry unless we feed them. Wheat Savings They must have wheat. II is the best food to fight on. It is tho easiest to ship. We alone can spare it to them. By saving just a little less than a quarter of what we ate last year we can support those who are, fighting our battles. And-we can do it without stinting ourselves. We have only to substitute another food just as good. The Corn of Plenty Corn is that food. There's a surplus of it. Providence has .been generous in the hour of our need. It has given us corn in such bounty as was never known before. Tons of corn. Train loads of corn. Five hundred million bushels over and above our regular needs. All we have to do is to learn to appreciate it. Was ever patriotic duty made so easy? And so clear? America's Own Food Corn ! It is the true American food. The Indians, hardiest of races, lived on it. Our forefathers adopted the diet and conquered a continent. For a great section of our country it has blong een the staff of life. How well the South fought on it, history tells. Now it can help America win a world war. Learn Something Corn! It isn't one food. It's a dozen. It's a cereal. It's a vegetable. It's a bread. It's a dessert. It's nutritious; more food value in it, dollar for dollar, than meat or eggs or most xrther vegetables. It's good to eat; how good you don't know until you've had corn-bread properly cooked. Best of all, it's plentiful and it's patriotic. Corn's Infinite Variety How much do you know about corn? About how good it is? About the many delicious ways of cooking it? And what you miss by not knowing more about it? Here are a few of its uses: There are at least fifty ways to use corn meal to make good dishes for dinner, supper, lunch or break fast. Here are some suggestions: DESSERTS' Corn-meal molasses cake. Apple corn bread. Dumplings. Gingerbread. Fruit gems. HOT BREADS Boston brown bread. Hoecake. Mufflns. Biscuits. Griddle cakes. Waffles. HEARTY DISHES Corn-meal croquettes. Corn-meal fish balls. Meat and corn-meal dumplings. Italian polenta. Tamales. The recipes are in Farmers' Bulletin 565, "Corn Meal as a Food and Ways of Using It," free from the Department of Agriculture. BIG FILM COMING Theater Will Show ""The Kaiser the Ueast of Berlin." One of the biggest films of modern times and intensly interesting just at this time is the film play "The Kaiser I tho Beast of Berlin" which will be shown at tho Hex theater in Vnle, June 29, and nt the Deamland thea ter in Ontario, June 27.
