Unless the Allies fight as they never yet have fought, defeat threatens. Hungry men cannot fight at tneir best; nor hungry nations. France, England, and Italy are going hungry unless we feed them. L Wheat Savings—»They must have wheat It is the best food to fight on. It is the easiest to ship. W s alone can spare it to them. By saving just s. little— leas than a quarter o f what we ate last vear— we can support those w h oare fighting our battles. And we can do it without stinting ourselves. W s have only to substitute another food just as good. The Cara o t Plenty— Corn is that food. There’s a surplus o f i t Providence has been generous in the hour of our need.

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. Cora’ s Infinite Variety— How much do you know about corn? About how good it Ja? About the many delicious ways o f cooking ft? And what you miss by not knowing more about ft? Here are a few o f its uses: There are at least fifty ways to use corn meal to make good dishes for dinner, supper, lunch or break fast.
