CORN BREAD I'M AMERICA.
Not So Common an Article Of Food
Nowadays as Tt Was Fifty
Years Ago.

Our exports Of cCTn to European
countries have risen from p, COOS 900
bushels in 1883 to about 3O0,000,0U0
bushels at the present time, and to-day
Belgium at least is using more Indian
corn per capita as food than the United
States. in which it is a great native
cereal, says the Birmingham Age
Herald. In BELGIUM the bakeries put
about 25 per cent. OF corn flour in the
bread they make, and such bread is read
lily sold lower than wheat or rye lOaVes.
It is considered more nutritious and
more easily digestible. In Germany the
fayOrite loaf consists of one-third corn
and two-thirds rye, and a five-pound
loaf thus made is sold at a saving OF
about 25, per cent.
The change in the European bread
supply was started by CT Murphy, who
was sent abroad as a commissioner by
the department of agriculture. He be-
| gan the propaganda in 1883, and he
| maintained it until the use Of corn as
food was we'll started and even estab-
lished, and to-day Europeans are more
familiar with corn bread than Amer
leans themselves. Mr.. Murphy asserts
that 10th in Belgium and Ireland the
ner CAPITA consumption Of corn as hui
man food is higher than it is in the
| United States. The value Of he In
| dian corr as food is not appreciated in
this country. Years g children
thrived and grew strong through the
consumption Of Johnny cake, ash cake,
hominy and pudding, but in recent
wears cornmeal has fallen into COM
narrative Gisuse, although it is cheaper,
more wholesome and more digestible
than wheat -four. The preparation Of
corn for the table can be more varied
tan that Of wheat, and yet for some
reason Indian corn is not freely used,
Mr.. Murphy says the consumption ot
American corn in crowded Belgium is
higher than it is in this country. 1t is
difficult to account fer the dislike CT this
country for corn in its various forms.
We grow it, and we should not 0 20
with an ~unfavorable eye on our W
excellent and abundant product.
The subject deserves careful attention
with a view to a reinstatement OF Amer
lean corn to the place it held OF tha
tables of our ancestors. Corn was not
a rejected article of food a century ago
and it was freely used as late as ST
years ago. We may have PROGRESSED
backward in this matter. Mr.. Murphy
thinks we have.

"PeCk's Bad Boy" etc.)

London, H'england.-Dear Uncle Ezra:
The worst is over, and dad and l have
both touched a king. Not the way you
think, touching a king for a hand-out, or
borrowing his loose change, the way you
used to touch lad when you had to pay
for your goods, but just taking hold CT
his hand, and shaking it in good old
United States fashion.
The American minister arranged it for
us. He told somebody that Peck's Bad
Boy and his dad were in town, and just
wanted to size up a king, and see how he
averaged up with United States poljti-
clans, and the King set an hour fQr Us
to call.
