Some people are eljudiccd against green
corn or roasting ears, as an article OF diet,
believing its use to be promotve of bowel
troubles. Nothing could he farther from the
truth. Properly prepared and eaten, corn is
positive cure for diarrhen. PIuckcd ut the
proper stage, well cooked, An each row or
grains cut through the center before eaten,
no vegetable production is more wholesome
or nutrtive than corn. The splitting OF IN"
grains renders it easily digestihlc, while ut
