SKINNED Milk for Other
Purposes.

Use of buttermiik as we'll as skim-
med milk in the baking of bread will
be recommended to the federal food
administration by State Food Ad-
ministrator Wattles. This action is
the result OF conference with rep
resentatives of creameries and rep
resentatives of bakeries when it was
recommended that buttermilk and
buttermlk prt ducts be used in this
way to release more skinned milk
for other purposes,
Those who made the appeal for
the use of buttermilk were +. T. Rec
tor and G. l.. Rushton OF the Fair
mont Creamery company, P. +. Peter
son of the Peterson-Pegau Baking
company, r. S. Soule OF Syracuse,
N. Y, A. c. Beardslec and ]. Wigge
of the Merrell-Sewall company OF
Syracuse, N. Y.
The dairy committee of the state
food administration sat with Mr.,
Wattles in hearing the arguments for
the use of buttermilk. 1t will be asked
of the federal food administration that
the optional use of buttermilk or
skinned milk in the baking Of bread
be permitted under the bakers IL

oats was unchanged to cent higher and in
provisions unchanged to 25c higher
Corn traders regarded the weather fore
cast as sunfavorable for expediting the
movement of the new crop. and as likely
to increase the feeding demand. Further
more receipts continued meager and there
were advces that railway cars remained
scarce in many sections of the corn belt. To
a great extent, however, fluctuations were
influenced by the action of oats. setback
