In combining one food with others
it is sometimes convenient TO know
how nearly il comes to being in it
self balanced ration. In the rational
diet, ii is estimated, cornmeal should
be combined with foods which have
more protein muscle building ele-
mentsl or less fat and carbohydrates
(energy- producing elements) than II
has itself Among such foods are milk.
most kinds OF meat and FISH, eggs and
cheese to cornmeal mush, which Is TO
eat cornmeal mush with milk, to add
cheese to cornmeal much, which is to
be fried, or to serve cornmeal prepara-
tons with meat. Fish balls with corn
meal Is a dish which approximates
the balanced ration. Here Ia the re-
celpe:
Corn Meal Fish Balls-Two cupfuls
cold white cornmeal mush, one egg,
one oupful shredded Goldfish one
tn hlespoonful butter Pick cover the
Goldfish and soak II to remove salt. IL
necessary Combine the ingredients
and drop by spoonfula into hot fat.
Drain on porous paper. These cod
fish balls compare very favorabiy in
taste with those made with potato and
are more easily and quickly prepared
Other recipes for cooking cornmeal
are given in the bulletin, and 1t is
recommended that as dishes made
with cornmeal are likely to be more
tender than those made with wheat,
the use OF small amounts of corn
meal in the making of such foods as
waiiles and doughnuts is desirable.
So closely does the composition. of
cornmeal resemble that of other pre-
pared cereals. that. pound for pound,

A MODERN FABLE;
A HOG IN THE MANGER
(Rural New Yorker


A group of barefooted children were
playing on the street of New Eng
land town They were barefooted
because father was out of work
had been out of work for some weeks.
What was fathers business? He
was a shoemaker in one of the big
factories. What had he done that the
factory shut down? He and other
workmen had made too many shoes.
This made dull trade or hard times
until this surplus could be disposed
of. Thus the children could not have
shoes because father had made too
many.
Another group of children on a New
England farm looked with longing
eyes at a box of oranges in a store
window. They could not have any
because father had to pay a mortgage
and his crop had been almost given
away They were not the best but
Of fair quality A commission man
had handled part of them for about
the cost of growing and handling The
rest had been fed TO stock
on a Florida farm am old man and
his grandchildren sat In the sun
longing for such apples as the old
man used to raise ou his northern
farm They could NOT afford TO buy
apples because rhe orange crop had

Therefore | send YOU my poems that

II should be understood, however,
that Whitman did not celebrate the
limited Democracy of the rising
bourgeoisie of the New World. lie

Democracy which included not only
political equality and liberty, but a
Democracy which demanded also

While he sings of America" and
her athletic Democracy as symbolic
of freedom and equality, no one knew
better than Whitman that real Democ-
racy. spiritual, intellectual and indus
trial freedom, with substantial JUS

as yet merely Democratic Vistas."
He had heard the lash of the thongs

To feed the greed of the belly, the

A few idly owning, and they the

Walt Whitman has not only given
us an anticipatory vision of the great
American Cooperative Common
wealth that is to be; he has not only
enthused his disciples with a new Joy
and "steadier faith" but he has given
the world in his wondrous Leaves of
Grass the Magma Charta of the com
mon man:
81 only am he who places over you no
master, owner, better God, beyond
what waits intrinsically in your
self
oh, | could sing such grandeurs and
glories of you!
You have not known what you are"
None but would subordinate you,
only am he who will never be con-
tent to subordinate you
"The sum of all known reverence I
add up in you whoever you are.
whoever you are, claim your own
at any hazard!"
81 speak the password primeval, I
give the sign of democracy,
By God! / will accept nothing which
all cannot have their counterpart of
on the same terms"
Knowing full well that the laboring
man and mechanic of today is to be
the poet, scientist, philosopher, and
savant of tomorrow, Whitman antici-
pated his audience. He never treated
the wage slave element condescending-
ly, but invested common employments
with new dignity and poetry. He saw
the workers of the world moving ir-
resistibly onward and upward, pass
ing ever toward the ideal comradeship
portrayed in Leaves of Grass"
In view of the amazing growth of
international working class solidarity,
and the eliminating evolution of
capitalism in the United States, with
cialization of the nations greater in
dustries and public utilities, what
could be more wonderfully prophetic
than the following lines penned near
ly half century ago:
