It has come to the attention OF the
Food Administrator that some of the
ginners are charging on weights
which include the weight of bagging

weight twenty-five pounds Therefore.
ginners must not harge in excess OF
the $3.50 per bale, unless the weight
of the bale, including bagging and
ties, is more than 525 pounds. For
the eycess over han weight at the rate
of seventy cents per hundred pounds

later period the Southern colonists
rather outdid the New Englanders In
the trick Of making palatable dishes
from Il.
II Is rather interesting that the
French housewives Of Louisiana hated
cornmeal and were no more expert at
using It than the French are to-day.
In fact, their objection amounted to a
veritable petticoat rebellion, and when
the food situation In the French COL
ony became so serious that they were
urged to use corn every day they in
Weighed bitterly against the good
bishop who. as they said. had snticed
them away from home under pretext
Of sending them to enjoy tho milk and
honey OF the promised land"
The Spanish likewise despised corn,
and II really took the ada ptability Of
the English colonists frst to learn its
rare nutritive qualities. 1t Ia no ex-
aggeration to say that were II not for
corn the early colonization Of this
land would have been an impossibility
and II may be said years from now
that the winning Of the war by the
Allies was considerably aided by this
same food staple, which made It pos
sibIe for AMERICANS to send lifesiving
wheat overseas
New England colonists thrived on
corn. as did the Indians, and ate II
every day. A certain kind OF pudding,
made Of corn and cooked In a bag. is
said to have appeared on the boards Of
thrifty New England colonists 365
times year.
But though corn was plentiful. il
was highly priced, and there was a
law forbidding any one to feed any Of
the golden grain to pigs. 1t passed as
legal currency in more than one COL
ony. Just as tobacco passed for cur
rency In some Of the Southern col
onies, and II was accepted for pay
ment of taxes,
And so our lessons from Colonial days
might be extended. The colonists pre-
served the summers abundance of
fruit and vegetables for winters use.
and preserved II without sugar, and
this Is the very latest demand Of the
food situation in this country.
They dried vegetables and fruit. and
we cannot do better than to dry. fruit
and vegetables In much the same way
that they did. They knew u scarcity
of wool. and they conserved wool. and
we are asked to do the same. They
made soap from drippings. and we are
asked to save every bit Of fat. either
