HOW TO REDUCE
HIGH COST OF LIVING DURING
THESE WAR TIMES-WHAT
EVERY WOMAN CAN DO.

Look over your old clothes. You
can never appreciate how much you
can brighten and freshen up your
wardrobe until you use Dy-O-La Dye.
Take some of your discarded blouses
and dresses, dye them with some OF
the sixteen different colors Of Dy-O-La,
change the trimmings bit and you
will be surprised at the result.
Dy-OLa is the modern dye made
by skilled chemists who have removed
all the difficulty from home dyeing
in order that you may get perfect re-
suits. Old style dyes require separ-
ate dye for each kind of goods. That
makes trouble (as you probably know,)
for if you get a package for the
wrong kind of material the goods are
spoiled. You can't make such a mis-
take with Dy-O-La Dye.
Take some garment that you have
grown tired of or that you desire to
color the fashionable shade Of the
moment, look over Dy-O-La Dye color
chart at your nearest druggists or
storekeeper, select the one that
pleases, and follow the printed direc-
lions. They will look as if they had
just come from the dressmaker.
And remember-the colors will be
Just as fast and durable as they are
beautiful. They won't rub off or bleach
out.
Buy it Of your nearest druggist or
storekeeper, but If they have not the
color you want we will send it to you
on receipt of ten cents and at the
same time include direction book and
color chart.
Dy-O-La Dye is made in Black,
Blue, Navy Blue, Brown, Seal Brown,
Light. Green, Dark Green, Scarlet,
Yellow. Orange, Cardinal Red, Pink.
Purple, Dark Wine, Old Gold, Turkey
Red, and from these sixteen cOlers a
great variety of other shades and col
ors can be made.

AMERICAN Savings WILL
MEASURE wheat EXPORTS

1--WE have already exported the
whole of the surplus of the 1917 wheat
harvest, over and above the normal de-
mands of our own population. 1t is
necessary, therefore, for the food ad-
ministration to restrict export Of wheat
so as to retain in the United States
sufficient supplies to carry our own
people until the next harvest.
Therefore all exports Of wheat
from now forward are limited entirly
to volume of saving made by the Amer
lean people in their consumption Of
wheat and wheat products.
1--WE continued wheat shipments for
December as far as our situation al
lowed, but even with all the conserva-
ton made we were still unable to load
several hundred thousand tons Of food
stuffs urgently required by the allied
nations during the month Of December
alone"

Wheat-corn bread is more nutritious
than bread baked with wheat flour
alone. Thousands Of American fam
lilies today are using this mixed flour
bread, and in so doing are enabling
America to provide more wheat hour
for the allies. Here's tested recipe
for this bread: Take one and half
cups Of milk, water or mixture OF
the two; one-half cake compressed
Yeast, one and half teaspoons salt,
one tablespoon sugar, one tablespoon
of fat if desired, one cup cornmeal
and two cups wheat -four
Put one and half cups of water,
the cornmeal, salt, sugar and fat Nt
useO into a double boiler and cook
twenty. minutes. The water is suffi-
cient only to soften the meal little
Allow the meal to cool to about the
temperature Of the room and add the
flour and yeast mixed with the rest
of the water. Knead thoroughly,
make into loaf place in pan OF stand
ard size, allow to rise until nearly
fills the pan and bake 40 or 90 min
utes. 1t is hardly practicable to use
q greater percentage Of cornmcal than
this even in emergencies, for bread so
made differs very little from baked
mush. Less cornmeal can be used
and in sucn a case the general meth
cd given above may be followed
1t is possible to make yeast raised
corn bread without first cooking the
cornmeal. In this case not more than
one cupful of meal should be used to
four cupfuls Of -four In other re-
spects the bread is mixed and baked
az in the above recipe.
