Local and Personal Mention
SAVE YOUR CORN.

The work stock (horses and mules) must
have concentrated feeds in sufficient guam
titles, if farmers are 10 get full service
from them. In the effort to get full SER
vice from them. In the effort TO get in
large acreages this wear. we are apt TO over
look the opportunity to save the grains fed
out to work stock. We can not only save
corn by replacing portion of it with cot
tonseed meal at less cost, but our stock
will do better for the substitution.
Two pounds of cotlonseed meal will dis
place about four pounds of corn in work
stock ration.
Two pounds of cotonseed meal per head
per day is as much as should be fed. This
two pounds of meal will cost about four
cents and the four pounds of corn, which
it will replace, will be where about twelve
centes, therefore, saving of practically
eight cents a day for each horse or mule.
A still stronger argument tor such sub
stitution is that it will release grain suit
able for human food, when the substituted
material can not be used.
This is one war measure" that entails
no hardships and merits the attention of
all in this crisis confronting us.
1t seems certain that the human family
will be forced to get along on many sub
stitute" in the the matter of food before
this war is over, so why not now practice
an economy that will conserve human food.

To Change Ingredients
What will happen now is the
total elimination of lard in making
bread, also of sugar and milk" said
the manager of the Standard Bakery.
Few use milk even now. but 1t will
be passed up entirely. Instead of
lard we are given to understand that
Hoover Will suggest certain vegetable
oils. Another way of economizing is
by substituting corn and what is
called inferior flour. This flour is
just as nourishing and digestible but
not quite the class of the quality
flour. But it will have to be used in
conjunction with corn meal. The
government cannot dictate both
weight and price. There is nothing
to hinder us from baking n loaf
weighing over sixteen ounces. but
If this standard is established and
certain economies made the public
will get perfectly good bread and for
a moderate price,
Save on Wrappers
Bernard Schmidt, of the Schmidt
Bakery, was of this opinion, and he
suggested another means for the con-
sumner to save on bread, namely, by
accepting the loaf without the wrap
ping. This wrapping counting the
material and labor" said he costs
about one-half cent a loaf. If Gus
toners show a desire to save on their
bread eating let them show it to the
bakeries and they will gladly CO.
operate. The delivery is costly to

offices where people could come in
