NHEAT-CORN YEAST BREAD.

Wheat-corn bread is more nutritious
than bread baked with wheat -four
alone. Thousands of American fam-
llies today are using this mixed -four
bread, and In so doing are enabling
America to provide more wheat flour
for the allies. Here's tested recipe
for this bread: Take one and half
cups of milk. water or n mixture OF

yeast, one and half teaspoons salt,
one tablespoon sugar. one tablespoon
of fat II desired, one cup cornmeaL
and two cups wheat flour.

OF the water. Knead thoroughly,

fills the pan and bake 45 or so min

Il greater percentage of cornmeal than
this even In emergencies, for bread so
made differs very little from bnked
mush. Less cornmeal can be used
and In sucn case the general meth

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

~ AIN, the worst OF pests, has
H again come to the aid of the
~ Hun in Flanders. II was
with gloomy forebodings that we
noted the news OF a downpour on
the Belgian battlciiclds, where the
great wedge OF the three allies,
British Belgans and French, is
driving in to free the Belgian coast
and clrcumscribc Lille
Three campaigns have been
marred in this same terrain by the
inevitable rains, which set in in
September and October and make
Flanders a sticky mess, through
which toiling troops pIod with slow
steps, fine targets for the machine
guns which the Hun knows how to
use so well.
II the downpour ceases and King
Albert'S massed army can proceed,
the Belgian coast will be entirely
freed OF German troops within two
weeks. II the deluge continues and
the waxy low ground loses its base,
the elimination OF the Lille salient
may have to be effected from the
south
One has to study a detailed map
and remember the former battles Of
YpreS 10 realize the magnitude of
the great wedge which has been
driven into the northern front. On
the outskirts Of Courtrai the Bel
gians are eighteen miles east OF
Ypres The allies are twelve miles
beyond a horizontal line drawn
through Lille
At Thourout the allied forces are
only eleven miles from Bruges, the
center through which all evacuated
troops and supplies from the coast
area must pass At Thourout the
allies are only l8 miles in a straight
line from the border OF Holland.
The cutting Of two Of the north and
south lines into Lille adds to the
