Grinding Oats With Corn. Corn meal alon is not merely too hearty, but it is i decidedly too heaw for healthful food. For use on the table it is lightened in various ways, and generally eaten w ith something else likely to compact in tlie stomach. It is neccasarv to do the same with it (or stock, especially if the corn is ground. There is nothing better to grind w ith corn than oats. Their hull makes the mixture much lighter, and the grain itself supplements some of the deficien cies of the corn. Oats are also excellent to put it w ith corn in the ear, when the latter is to be ground. Unleas this is done it is oflen hard for the miller to make the cob grind fine enough. If any way damp the cob breaks up into pieces, and only the grain is ground and that poorly. Somehow the mixture of one lialf of the bulk of corn in the cob of oats or barley will give the miller an advant age in working the w hole up as finely as may I desired.
