Ii pound for pound rye flour, buck

wheat flour is the most easily exported
of all our grains Rye flour is also in
demand on the other side Of the At

With the exception of the Italians, the
Rumanians and the peoples OF very
few other localities, Europeans do not
even know how to use cornmeal. II

in most parts OF Europe because the
sunshine does not last long enough
Besides, cornmeal does not keep sc

NEW YORK, Aug IA woman
who was slightly perplexcd about the
right clothes to wear III a topsy-turvy
summer season, such as New York is
going through, asked an experienced
dressmaker for an answer to her prob
lem Withou, quoting the answer IN
full the gst OF il is this, that the ex-
traordinary number OF people who
are in town during the hot weather
forcgsthering IN war rcliet work,
lunching at restaurants, and keeping IN
touch with each other in ways that
were not though, OF before the war,
has brough, about a new method OF
dressing.
Heretofore, the question OF summer
clothes held enough anxiety for WON
an, il would seem, but this hot weather
season has aided 10 the burden OF her
perplexities.
The routine of life from June until
October has been abandoned Glnghams
| muslns and sport suits have been more
commonly worn in town and in restau-
rants than ever before; but the well
dressed woman who likes to turn her
self on, IN a dignied manner has
chosen the voile or chiffon gown
stamped with a Dresden OF pompadur
design.
Such irocks are cool, they are dark
enough 10 be kept from the hands OF
the cleaner, and they make an admir-
able compromise between the over
popular gngham and the over-wsrm
serge.
Dresden Design In Fashion.
The wave OF flowered frocM that
swept over the country during June
was really surprise to the dress
makers as well as 10 the public. And
the dressmaker who gave the advice
outlined above to one OF her best Gus
toners, was guide worth possessing
There was no concerted movement
toward the introduction Of deep, rich
Dresden and pompadour gowns in the
late spring fashions Few Of the
French designers introduced them as
costumes OF importance. The Ameri-
can shops offered a few OF them, but
they did not persuade their patrons to
buy them.
However. the public took the Dre''
den gown to its heart, and now, such
frocks filter about like multi -colored
butterflies lowering over a field Here
and there, one sees young girls In
Dresden gowns of white, cream and
the Saxony ,ints, bu, the majority
choose kings blue, beetle green, dead
leaf brown, black and red in that
shade called "dregs Of wine" which

Cornmeal is more easily grown
than wheat flour. II the price Is higher
now it is because it has not been
milled in such large quantities. The
fact remains that when you use corn
meal you are helping to provide some

food that csnno, easily be exported and
food that it would take most Euro

The fact is that Europeans do not know
how to use cornmeal Their recipe

there are enough other things for Off
