WORST ENEMIES ARE AT HOME

The following is an extract regarding
dinner speech of former Ambassador
Gerard at the publishers banquet in
New York:
To certain extent, the former am
bassador asserted, the entrance of the
United States in the war was due to
the misinterpretation of American SEN
timent in America by American news
paper men of pro-German sympathies
who were stationed in Berlin.
"The worst enemies in this country
today Mr.. Gerard declared, care the
insidious enemies here at home who
misrepresent facts''
Referring to Germany's military am
billions before the war, Mr.. Gerard
said Admiral Won Tirpitz had openly
advocated the seizure of the coast of
Flanders as base for operations
against England and America. The
Won Tirpitz party now is in the ascend
ancy, he said.
Germans of all types, Mr.. Gerard
explained, advocated bringing England
to her knees, seizing her navy and
using British warships to operate
against the United States, thereby
forcing this country to pay all the ex
pense of the conflict.
Uncle Sam is now quite willing to
pay the fiddler, but not for German
music

1NCREASED HOME ECONOMY

We are the most wasteful people in
the world in our ways of living. Our
tastes and desires have been educated
beyond our incomes.
Almost az great saving may be
made through the more economical
manufacture, purchase, and use of food
as can be made through processes OF
production which are Immediately
feasible.
Our breadstuffs supply may be in-
creased by one-twelfth, or 100000
barrels of flour year, by milling our
wheat so a. to make 81 per cent of the
kernel into flour, instead of 70 per
cent as at present. This flour would
have as high nutritive value as that
(which we now use.
An important saving may be affect.
ed by making the diet as largely vege-
tartan as possible, without lowering
food efficiency, by partial substitu-
tion of such foods Is beans and peas
-and of milk and it's products, including
skinned milk, for the more expensive
meats.
At present prices larger use of corn
and rice products as partial substitutes
for the more expensive wheat products
is suggested.
The substitution of the home. grown
and home prepared grain products for
the much more expensive refined com.
mercial foods, known as breakfast
foods, will make large saving. Ade.
quate gardens should provide the home
supply of vegetables, which are ex-
pensive foods when purchased at ex.
isting prices. The home storage and
preservation of foods, such a. eggs,
vegetables, fruits and meats, should be
inereased. a fs.n nv .n
The serious food wastes thst occur
in many HOUSEHOLDS through o lack of
The Glenwood post., 1917-05-05

culinary knowledge and skill may be
minimized through instruction in better
methods.
These economics will be secured
chiefly, if not fully, through the fur
ther education of housewives. 1t is
highly important that all educational
agencies available for this purpose en-
gage in widespread propaganda and in
struction concerning the economical
use of human foods.
