Europe Needs More Corn and wheat.
The June Farm and Fireside say

The June Farm and Fireside says:
Wheat is the chief thing the Ameri-
can allies in Europe want. But they
want corn also. and they want meat.
And they aren't as particular about
variety as they used TO be. One effect
Of this war is likely to be to open up a
much greater market for American corn.
The Italians are beginning to use a great
deal Of corn meal, in the form Of mush
and bread, already. Other nations have
held aloof from corn, but they are be
ing converted to il. This recalls that
when the American Red Cross workers
in Poland a year or so ago wanted to
help the starving Poles they brought
in large supplies of corn from Rumania-
The Poles had heard that some dread
disease mrked in corn, and wouldn't
use 1t. But things are changing. An
expert Of the British commission in
formed the writer that largely increasing
demand for corn and it's products might
be expected frOm the United Kingdom
