THE USES OF CORN MEAL

Mr.. Carl NrOOman. assistant secre-

corn meal dishes. in addition to the
different varieties of corn bread. What
is known in the north as Boston
brown bread is composed OF about
one-half rye meal and One-half corn
meal POlenta is another corn meal
dish, extremely popular throughout
southern Europe and in certain parts
OF the United States. The tomato IS
another rorn dish which is in high ia

SITUATION BECOMES MORE
AND MORE SERIOUS

To Our Correspondent Banks and
the Public: In our monthly bulletin
we have repeatedly pressed upon pub
lie attention the gravity of the situa-
ton which now confronts the world
il the scarcity of food supplies, but
we would not feel that we had done
our duty if we did not utter final
word of warning and of appeal upon
the subject The situation grows
more serious as spring advances and
the disaster to the winter wheat crop
Of this country is understood.
All of EurOpe-neutral as we'll as
warning countries-has been placed
upon food rations to exc out supplies
until tbs new crop is harvested. This
country entered the present crop year
last July with 164,O00,O00 bushels OF
wheat carried over from the crop Of
1915, and in 1916 produced 482,000,
coo bushels of winter wheat and 1885,
600 900 of spring wheat; total supply,
804, 000, 900. This year there will be
pl actically no wheat carried over and
the governments estimate upon the
winter wheat forecasts yield of only
430,000000. On this basis the spring
wheat crop must be 314,000,000 larg
err than last year in order to give us
/ a wheat supply equal to what we will
/ export and consume in the crop year
now closing. This is an alarming out
look The spring wheat crop is
rotoriously subject tc weather condi-
tons. More spring wheat should be
scwn, but it is doubtful if the wheat
shortage can be made up. Other food
crops must be grown to meet the de-
fciency.
This country is now at war, and
Our allies, Belgium, Great Britain,
France and Italy are dependent upon
US for food. They will have no re-
serves and must have more from us
in the coming year than in the past,
or they will not be able to feed all
their people. Added to the appeals OF
starving humanity will be military
reasons making it impossible for us
to put an embargo upon the exporta-
ton of food. We must divide what
we grow this year with these coun.
tries, and with the neutral countries
Holland, Denmark, Norway, Swed
en-, Switzerland and Spain-which are
not self sustaining in grain supplies
And not only must we supply enough
to keep these peoples from starving
but enough to cover the heavy losses
at sea which result from the sub
marine warfare. If we grow no more
food than we did last year-and 81
far the outlook is for less-there ii
danger of food situation such a.
the world in modern times has no
dreamed of. No other country ha'
the resources in land and population
to meet this emergency but the Unit
ed States. There is no business upoi
which all other business depends o.

upon this of growing a big crop in
America this year. And the work
must be started Immediately. There
is no time to wait on organization
from outside. The emergency can be
met only by spontaneous action in
every state, county and school dis
trict. forming local organizations.
Picture in your mind what condl-
tons will be in our own cities next
winter, and of the effect upon all in
dustry, if food supplies are scarcer
and dearer than they are now! It
must be impressed upon everybody
that no wage advances or regulation
of prices can add one bushel of wheat
or potatoes to the supply after the
growing season is over.
The country is aroused, but mere
alarm will not accomplish results.
There must be organized personal
work, headed in every locality by men
of force and influence
The governor of Iowa has called
for the enlistment of boys from - to
Is to work either in town gardens or
upon the farms. President Wilson
says that these boys will be soldiers
of the commissary." There are fine
possibilities in this idea. The boys
may be brought to feel that they are
serving their country as truly as their
older brothers who enlist in army or
navy; and the girls should have
chance as well. They should have
medal to keep as lifelong evidence of
their service in the last great war
let us hope-of the worlds history.
Some of our correspondent banks
are arranging for garden plots for
ali their clerks. Industrial employ
ers are doing likewise, and will pro-
vide seeds and instruction. Organized
work of this kind with suitable super
vision will be most effective. Every
employer in your locality should be
waited upon by a committee, and in
vited to cooperate in this manner.
Although it is of course desirable
to increase the farm crops, and espe-
cially the spring wheat crop, it may
be that the best chance to increase
the food supply is by the intensive
cultivation of garden tracts in and
adjacent to towns, where labor addf-
tional to the regular farm supply can
be secured for growing potatoes,
beans, onions, etc. Each community
is able to go ahead upon this work
without help from outside. The ag-
gregate result will depend upon the
efficiency of the local organizations.
We take the liberty of addressing
not only our own bank correspond
ents, but all bankers, believing that
they will be quick to recognize the
gravity of the situation, and that
their relations with the business COM
munity are such as to enable them to
secure general cooperation. We
would appreciate advice as to what is
being done in your locality.
Respectfully,
The National City Bank of New York.
