"Saue the Waste and Win the War"
GOOD ROADS AND THE WAR.

THE RELATION Of good roads to war, as pointed out
by Major General w. NJ Black, chief Of engineers oi
the United States army is not difficult to comprehend
The verest novice in military matters knows the utd,
need of ample transportation facil6es from base to
front so there is the cry for ships and still more ships
But il is equally vital that there be adequate horoughtae'
and carriers back OF the base bring the needed supplies
up from the ends Of the country, and in land wide
spread as this the task is tremendous The railroads
have not been equal the occasion and while improve
ment is expected under government management ol all
rail lines as single system that adjustment will take
time and still remains to be demonstrated. But even
were the railways sufficient in their sphere, there would
still exist the need for better highways war measure
for the short haus the railroads still necessary The
movement Of crops and other commodities without delay
now becomes increasingly important and it is ever
movement OF large consequence.
Therefore NO false sense Of war economy should halt
road projects of general interest Rather the demand oi
the hour for greater national efficiency should give such
projects new impetus and encourage good roads build
ing in this state and others. Such construction when
properly done for peace we'll war, but its place in
nation in arms i, sefcyident and delays OF needless
nature should not be tolerated.
Aside from the military advantage Of hard-surfaccd
roads the plan for better highways should find encourage
ment in Oklahoma in the marvellous increase of auomo
bes in this state within the past year. With machine
for each fourteen persons in the state the investment
tremendous and only on good roads is the motor car
satisfactory vehicle Dirt roads may be good of
and frequently are but the best of them bad in bad
weather

GOOD SUBSTITUTE FOR WHEAT
Splendid, Wholesome Bread May BE
Made IL instructions Given Below
Are Followed.

That the people of the United
States must learn to use substitutes
for wheat is one of the lessons being
taught by the war. Rye, barley,
buckwheat, oatmeal, rice, corn and
potato starch may all be used for
this purpose, by substituting them
for various proportions of wheat
-four.
/; A splendid, wholesome bread may
be made by using one-third corn
meal and two-thirds wheat -four. One
recipe is as follows:
One and one-haH cupfuls milk or
water. one-half cake compressed
yeast, one teaspoonful sugar, one tea
spoonful fat, one cupful cornmeal,
two cupfuls wheat -four. Soften the
yeast in one-fourth cupful of water
or milk; boil remaining liquid, the
cornmeal, salt, sugar and fat for 20
minutes; cool and add the yeast; al
low to rise until it doubles its bulk !;
make into a loaf; again allow to rise
bake.
The ways in which barley, rye,
oatmeal, rice and potato starch can
be used in making bread are given
in a bulletin issued by the United
States food administration, entitled
t'Ten Lessons on Food Conserva-
tion," a copy of which may be OBJ

A travelling salesman, and he an ex-
ception however, went lately into the
dining room of prominent Dallas, Tex.
hotel to get breakfast. In ordering his
food he complained because sugar was
rationed. The smiling waitress told
him that sugar must be conserved, this
aroused his poor temper and taking
up two rolls tore them into bits and
scattered them over the floor to show
what he thought of food conserva ton.
A policeman took him under arrest and
carried him before the mayor. The
verdict coming to him was, he should
purchase Red Cross badge, apologize
to the waitress and write to the Dali
las Council of Defense letter daily as
long as he remains in the state (Texas),
detailing his movements. He made a
graceful apology, and protested that
he is patriotic and sorry for his display
of anger.
