PIantfood In Soil

A chemical analysis cannot show the
amount of available plantfood In a soil.
A chemist could, without difficulty,
make an artificial soil containing every
element Of plantfood In abundance, and
yet be perfectly sterile. Peat, for ex-
ample. is usually very rich In nitrogen,
but 1t is locked up oil unavailable. To
pulverize it and mix 1t with lime is to
change 1t into a highly nutritious soil.

FACE the FACTS

EFT face the facts. The situation is critical
II Unless the Allies fight they yet have
fought, defeat threatens. Hungry cannot fight
at their best; hungry nations. France, England,
and Italy are going hungry unless we feed them.
Wheat savngs--They must have wheat. It is the
best food to fight 1t is the easiest toshp. We
alone spare it to them By saving just little
less than quarter of what ate last year--we
support those who are fighting our battles. And we
can do it without stinting ourselves We have only
to substitute another food just as good.
The Corn of Plenty-Corn is that food. There's
surplus of it. Providence has been generous in the
known before. Tons of corn. Train
loads of corn. Five hundred million bushels and
learn to appreciate it. Was ever patriotic duty made
easy? And so clear?
Americas Own Food-Corn! It is the true American
food. The Indians, hardest of races, lived it.
Our forefathers adopted the diet and conquered
continent. For great section of our country it
has blong the staff of life How well the South
fought on it, history tells Now it help America
win world war.
Learn something-Corn! It isn't food. It's a
dozen. It's cereal. It's vegetable. It's bread.
It's dessert It's nutritious; more food value in it,
dollar for dollar than meat or eggs or most other
vegetables; It's good to eat; how good you don't
know until you've had corn-bread properly cooked
Best of ALL it's plentiful and it's patriotic,
Corn's Infinite Varesy-How much do you know about
corn? About how good it is? About the many
delicious ways of cooking it? And what you miss
of its
There are at least fifty ways to use corn meal to
make good dishes for dinner, SUPPER lunch or break
fast Here suggestions:
HOT BREADS DESSERTS
Boston brown bread. Corn-mea molasses cake.
Hoecake. Apple corn bread.
Mullins Dumplngs.
Biscuits. Gingerbread. &
