America's great corn crop, exceed ing 3.000,000,000 bushels, will save the world’s food situation, officials of the United States food administration be lieve. Corn Is the nation's best food cereal, housewives are beginning to realize. It contains all the elements needed to keep the body in a state of health and when used according to the scores of tried recipes, especially when com bined with an added portion of oil or fat, will sustain life indefinitely. In- dian warriors in colonial days lived on parched corn alone for many days at a time, and at Valley Forge parched corn was at times the sole ration of the Continental soldiers. Owing to transportation difficulties caused by the war the corn crop moved more slowly to market this year than ever before. Now, however, the cereal is reaching the millers and consumers. In the meantime the nation's surplus wheat has been sent to Europe. Today there are approximately 30 bushels of corn for every American. This quantity is greater by five bush els than in former years. Corn has become the nation's ma’n- stay In the crisis of war. Just as this cereal saved the first American colonists from famine on many occasions, just as it served as a staple food during the War of the Rev- olution and during the Civil War, King Corn has again come to the front in the nation's battle with autocracy. Corn meal is finding greatly increas ed use in the making of ordinary white bread. Hundreds of housewives and many of the larger bakers are mixing 20 per cent, corn meal with wheat Hour to make leavened bread. This kind of a mixture Is worked and baked In the same recipes and with the same methods that apply to straight wheat bread. Corn bread—using corn meal entire- ly—la gaining a greater popularity than ever before. Housewives are coming to realize that every pound of wheat saved In America means a pound of wheat released for shipment to the nations with which America Is associ ated In the war. There are a score of corn products that today possess unusual importance for Americans. Corn syrup for sweet ening corn cakes and buckwheat cakes and for use in the kitchen Instead of granulated sugar is one of the leading products made from corn. Corn oil, excellent for frying and for every other purpose filled by salad oils, is appearing on the market in large quantities.’ It comes from the germ of the corn. MADE-IN-GERMANY LIES CIRCULATED IN CANADA Canada Is also having trouble with Made-in-Germany lies calculated to hinder Canadian food conservation ac cording to an official statement re ceived from the Canadian food con troller by the United States food ad ministration. The stories bothering Canada are of the same general character as those the United States food administra tor recently denounced in this coun try, such as the ridiculous salt and blueing famine fakes and the report that the government would seize housewives' stocks of home canned goods. The Canadian food controller esti- mates that when the people listen to and pass on such stories, each one has the power of destruction that lies in a battalion of soldiers. "Stories without even a vestige of foundation have pren scattered broad- cast,” said the Canadian statement "Nor have they come to life casually. They have started simultaneously In different parts of the country and In each Instance have been calculated to arouse public Indignation. "They are insidious, subtle, persist- ent. Bit by bit they dissipate public trust, the great essential In the work of food control. "It lies with every individual to for bear from criticism; to refrain from passing on the vagrant and harmful atory. and thus the more effectively to co-operate In work which Is going to mean more than the majority of people yet realize.” THE UNITED STATES FOOD ADMINISTRATION SAYS: conservation. compilas this HERMISTON, OREGON CHURCH NOTICES.
