(P) A spec ial Washington, D. C , dispatch to the Journal said Acting Secretary of War Payne has advised Senator Hiram Johnson, chairman of the senate com merce committee, that the depart ment is opposed to Senator McNary's bill to authorize appropriation of 700,000 for the South Umpqua river Jetty, which has been approved by army engineers." "The project is meritorious," says Payne, according to the dispatch, "but should wait its turn in the next river and harbor bill. APPLEGATE. April 8. (Speclal Charles H.

Mr. Brown Is now at San Diego and will return here about May 1 with machinery to prospect the land which extends along Poor man's creek for about two miles. This will be done by Tom Hull of Med ford and If prospecting proves valu able Mr. Brown will mine the prop erty on a royalty basts. Don't Compare Beck's Butternut with ordinary bread By the Bureau of Home Economics, U. 6. Department of Agriculture "Some like It hot, some like It cold, some like It In the pot nine days old." Mother Goose was talk ing about peas porridge, but the rhyme may go for oatmeal porridge this time, if not taken too literally. The point la that however you take your cereals, whether as porridge, oatmeal gruel, hominy grits, or corn- meal mash, or whether as bread, muffins, or toast, add milk and you have the basis of a low-cost balanc ed diet. To keep your food costs costs down to the lowest limit, build your diet on this basis, says the Bu reau of Home Economics ot the U. 8. Department of Agriculture. The oth er necessary kinds of foodvege tables, fruits, meats can be used in smaller quantity if you start with plenty of the grain foods and milk. The low-cost diet begins with bread and cereals because these are cheap forms of energy-giving or fuel foods (which are necessary to keep the body warm and give It power to work) and because they also con tain body-building substances. These values come chiefly from the starch and protein contained in the grains and grain products. Whole wheat, brown rice and whole-ground corn- meal contain some minerals and vi tamins besides, because they contain parts of the grain usually lost in milling, and It is these parts, chiefly, w.hlch contain the minerals and vita mins. In all but the most exceptional cir cumstances, and almost everywhere. the grain crops furnish the cheapest energy-giving food, and bread or breadatuffs are the largest single item In the low-cost food supply. For ' all their Importance, however, neither the ''staff of life" nor any other grain product will by Itself sus tain you. And although milk which Is also cheap becaue It fur nishes several other kinds of food in is the best single supplement to the grain foods, even this combi nation must not be considered com plete, for It lacks certain vitamins and minerals which only vegetables and fruits can be depended upon to supply. People who live on a a diet too largely composed of grain foods have the so-called "deficiency" diseases like pellagra in this country, In sec tions where they eat little else ex cept cornbread, fat meat, and mo lasses; and like beriberi in oriental countries where polished rice la the principal food. The addition of milk or eggs or lean meat or fish, or to matoes will prevent pellagra; and brown rice substituted for polished rice, will prevent beriberi. This Is true because these foods supply the particular substances needed to pre vent these diseases. But a balanced diet requires also vegetables or fruits. The housewife has her difficulties In meal planning, of course, when she must depend largely on bread and cereals. How shall the mother of a family of five serve 30 pounds of breadatuffs and cereals In a week. In a sufficient variety of ways to make the meals appetizing? It taxes the Imagination, perhaps, but here are some suggestions. Whole wheat, rice, bread crumbs or noodles are among the Important "makings" of soups or chowders there is a whole wheat chowder which Is very nutritious and very good. Then there are combinations of beef and whole wheat; scalloped liver and whole wheat; liver and rice; whole wheat, fish and tomato; whole wheat and pork; brown rice, plain, or served with tomatoes, or with cheese, or with both; Spanish or Mexican rice, or a pilau of rice or whole wheat; green peppers stuffed with rice; macaroni or spaghetti with cooked ham, with cheese, or with to matoes and cheese; noodles or dump lings with meat any of these makes substantial main dish for dinner. Whole wheat, rice, noodles, macaroni or spaghetti are all good "meat ex tenders" that Is, they help out If you haven't enough meat for a whole meal, and they are useful with leftovers. For lunch or supper, fried tnuah or oatmeal cookies fill a useful place, and for dessert at either meal there are such possibilities as suet pud ding, bread pudding (eggs are cheap now), apple dumpling or other fruit dumpling when fruit Is cheap as applea are. Then, of course, there are the breakfast cereals, and the breads for every meal. Home made btscults. wheat cakes, and muffins will con sume a considerable portion of the week'e allowance of wheat flour; corn cakes, corn pone, corn dodgers, spoon bread, Indian pudding and brown bread are made from corn meal. And now when eggs are cheap, French toast Is another possibility. The grain foods are cheapest, of course, when bought In bulk, rather than in package. Whole grain wheat, and also cracked or ground wheat, can be bought at feed stores. Whole grain w.heat should be sorted and washed carefully, and soaked over night O1 cups of water to each cup of wheat) before cooking. It can be cooked over d'rect heat or In a double boiler. The Bureau of Home Economics will furnish, on request, a number of whole wheat recipes, and other low-cost recipes for using the cereal foods In appetizing combinations.
