1 Whimsical McGraw.
Since shortace of wheat made the
price of flour soar, housewives of the
country hare been seeking a substitute
for white flour. The most practical
substitutes are whole wheat flour,
shorts, cottonseed meal and cornmeal
since they all make palatable bread
and may be obtained In most markets.
At present prices these materials may
be substituted for flour at a decided
saving In the cost of bread.
The University of Missouri College
f .V;rrl culture hns rorcntlv issued Ag
ricultural Extension Service Circular !
25 which discusses a number of substi
tutes for white flour and offers recipes
for making war breads. Some of the
breads which may be made by substi
tuting different materials for all or a
part of the flour are whole wheat
bread, shorts bread, cornmeal and
wheat bread, shorts cookies, cohon
seed meal gingerbread, com dodgers
and Boston brown bread.
Whole wheat fl6ur has been sug
gested as a substitute for white flour
because it offers opportunity for utiliz
ing as human food parts of the wheat
.grain which were formerly used exclu
sively for other purposes. Only about
72 per cent of the wheat grain Is used
for white patent flour. The rest is
sold ns bran or shorts for stock food.
Whole wheat flour contains about 85
per cent of the wheat grain. This
means that a given supply of wheat
made 'into whole wheat flour will feed
a larger number of people than the
same amount of wheat made Into white
flour.
Whole wheat bread Is a better food
than white bread because It contains
a larger percentage of the mineral mat
ter and other valuable food constitu
ents than the white bread. Both whole
wheat and graham flour have the
added advantage of containing a large
proportion of the coarse fiber of the
wheat
Shorts has also been suggested as a
substitute for white flour. It may be
used in any proportion up to three
fourths shorts and one-fourth white
flour. It produces a dark, somewhat
heavy texture bread which has a pleas
ant nutty flavor. Shorts may be used
In combination with white flour In grid
dle cakes, muffins, bread and cake, and
In combination with cornmeal In Bos
ton brown bread.

cular on war breads may obtain them

ture, Columbia, Mo.
