Corn has again come to the front In
the nations battle with autocracy.
Corn meal is finding greatly increas-
ed use in the making of ordinary white
bread. Hundreds of housewives and
many of the larger bakers are mixing
20 per cent. corn meal with wheat
-four to make leavened bread. This
kind of a mixture is worked and baked
in the same recipes and with the same
methods that apply to straight wheat
bread.
Corn bread--using corn meal entire
ly-is gaining a greater popularity
than ever before. Housewives are
coming to realize that every pound OF
wheat saved in America means a pound
of wheat released for shipment to the
nations with which America is associ-
ated in the war.
There are a score OF corn products
that today possess unusual Importance
for Americans. Corn syrup for sweet
pninr corn cakes and buclcVheot cakes
and FOR use in the kitchen instead OF
granulated sugar is one of the leading
products made from corn.
Corn oil, excellent for frying and for
every other purpose filled by salad oils,
is appearing on the market in large
quantities. 1t comes from the germ of
the corn.

MADE germany lies
CIRCULATED IN CANADA

Canada is also having trouble with
Made-in- Germany lies calculated to
hinder Canadian food conservation ac-
cording to an official statement re-
ceived from the Canadian food con-
troller by the United States food ad.
mlnistration.
The stories bothering Canada are
of the same general character as those
the United States food administra-
tor recently denounced in this coun-
try, such as the ridiculous salt and
bIueing famine fakes and tho report
that the government would seize
housewives stocks of home canned
goods
The Canadian food controller estl-
mates that when the people listen 10
and pass on such stories, each one
has the power of destruction that lies
in a battalion of soldiers.
"Stories without even vestlge Of
foundation have been scattered broad
cast" said the Canadian statement
"Nor have they come to life casually.
They have started simultaneously in
different parts of the country and in
each instance have been calculated to
arouse public Indignation.
"They are insidous, subtle, persist
ent. Bit by bit they diSsipate public
trust, the great essential in the work
of food control.
ut lies with every individual to for
bear from criticism; TO refrain from
passing on the vagrant and harmful
story. and tnus the more effectively
to cooperate in work which is going
TO mean more than the majority Of
people yet realize"

NO PEACE FOR THE

Cancellation OF all draft orders by
Provost Marshal Crowder will in no
way effect the rounding up Of draft de-

cape the draft, and hide behind the

Stacker raids for the new draft were
about under way when orders came
that no more men could be sent TO
camp, but Washington authorities have
since decided that men who escaped
