teertag" talk lias No foundation
A <|Usstion that is frequently asked at
the Federal Food Administration offices
is why, in the face of a •’bumper” cro^i
of corn, the price <A corn meal should I
tie so high.
“It is true that the 1917 corn yield
wa> a heavy one,” said Assistant Fe«l«r- I
al Food Administrator, W. 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

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:

Hoecake.
Muffins.
