K. Newell ' in explanation.” Plans had been made | for a plentiful supply of corn meal tor the entire nation to Ute as a wheat aub- | stitute, ami the corn growers ha<l re- spomle«! eplendidly to the request of the ; Food Administratum by planting every possible acre to corn. The almost un precedented corn crop that resulted has tieen commented upon far ami wide, but, it is not so generally known that un- t favorable weather conditions, including I geveral earlv, warm rains, rendered most ’ of this crop unfit for milling. “Only the first-class, drv corn can be milled. The least moisture means mil dew and rot. The moist’soft’ corn can not be made into corn meal, although some of the better grade can be convert ed into meal after a slow process of kiln drying. Such of the corn as can lie milled, including all the prime grain and some of the second-grade 'soft corn,’ is now being ground into corn meal. One of the first elements in the high price is the greatly increased demand for the meal. Every corn mill in the country is working night and day at capacity, to supply this demand. Every mill has sold its full output for weeks ahead. “Another element contributing to the price is the added cost of the kiln dry- j ing process for the moist corn, which is being use«l this year to supplement the first grade dry corn. Traffic congestion, which was the cause of great delay in moving the crop from field to mills, contributed further to the high price. This is the corn situation throughout the whole country, and here in the Northwest, tiecause of our great distance from the corn belt and the greater difli* culty of securing transportation facilities by which to ship in our supply, our corn meal prices are even higher than those of the Middle West and Eastern states. A little lerious study of these facte should make it clear to anyone that talk of 'profiteering' as the cause of high corn meal prices is unfounded. “Any by the wav,” Mr. Newell con cluded, “an interesting development of the oversupply of soft corn was the dis covery of an entirely new and very fine vegetable oil corn oil. Corn oil, now be ing made in great quantities from this ' soft corn, is pronounced bv experts to be among the beet, most palatable, an.l most nutritious vegetable oils on the market. It offers substantial help in the solution of our conservation prob lems. Corn syrup is ..leo a good con- e«rvation product that is being exten sively manufactured from the soft corn. Both ot these fine conservation com- modities may now be ha«i in abundant quantities and at reasonable prices Oregon housewives are urged to try I them.” ‘ !. at their best; nor hungry nations. France, England, and Italy are going hungry unless we feed them. Wheat Savings—They must have wheat It is the best food to fight on. It is the 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 leaVn 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 other 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. Com’» 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: HOT BREADS Boston brown bread. Hoecake. Muffins. Biscuits. Griddle cakes. Waffles. DESSERTS Corn-meal molasses cake. Apple corn bread. Dumplings. Gingerbread. Fruit gems. HEARTY DISHES Corn-meal croquettes. Corn-meal fish balls. Meat and «corn-meal dumplings. Italian polenta. Tamales.
