+ Inasmuch as bread is the stan of life,
and is not always as plentiful as the
demand is great, any discovery which
adds to the material of which it may
be made is OF the utmost importance.
Such discovery it is claimed has been
made by our friend Or. A. F. BaSns. of
clarksbufg. The Telegraph says the
Doctor conceived the idea some tiur9
ago that the seed which is produced by
the sorghum plant would make good
bread. He accordingly prepared some
of IL and had it ground and bolted. He
presented the Editor withsome whi oh
he has tried and found very palatable,
and SAYS the bread made Of II looks like
cakes, and smells like buck
wheat cakes, and tastes ike buckwheat
cakes, and would be buckwheat cakeslf
it were not sorghum.
