WHEAT-CORN YEAST BREAD.

Wheat-corn bread Is more nutritious
than bread baked with wheat -four
alone. Thousands Of American fam
lilies today are using this mixed flour
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 mixture OF
the two; one-half cake compressed
yeast, one and half teaspoons salt,
one tablespoon sugar, one tablespoon
Of fat If desired, one cup cornmeal
and two cups wheat -four.
Put one and a half cups Of water,
the cornmeal, salt, sugar and fat Of
used) into a double boiler and cook
twenty minutes. The water Is suffi-
cient only to soften the meal little.
Allow the meal to cool to about the
temperature of the room and add the
-four and yeast mixed with the rest
of the water. Knead thoroughly,
make into loaf, place in pan of stand
ard size, allow to rise until nearly
flls the pan and bake 45 or 90 min
utes. 1t is hardly practicabl" to use
a greater percentage OF cornneai than
this even in emergencies, for bread so
made differs very little from baked
mush. Less cornmeal can be used
and In sucn case the general meth
cd given above may be followed.
It Is possible to make yeast raised
corn bread without frst cooking the
cornneal. In this case not more than
one eupful Of meal should be used to
four cupfuls of flour. In other re-
spects the bread is mixed and baked
az In the above recipe.

eilas Deane, First American Diplomatic
Agent, Received Harsh Treatment
From Government.

Silas Deane, the first diplomatic
agent Of the United States, was born
at GrOtOn, Mass, close to 200 years
ago. He became merchant and was
a delegate to the first Continental con.
gress. In the spring Of 1776 he was
sent to France as a secret diplomatic
agent. He posed as merchant from
Bermuda, and upon his arrival IN
Paris sought an interview with Count
de Vergennes, the Minister Of Foreign
A6aires, who refused to receive him,
Deane was reduced to the direst pow
erty and was elected by his landlady.
Subsequent American ambassadors
have complained Of the lack Of suit

duced to a point where he had to &c.
cept poor lodgings from a sympa.
thetic Frenchman. Eventually he was
given an audience with Vergennes and
began the diplomatic relations which
eventually resulted in the French al
lance. In 1777 Deane was recalled.
In the bitter controversy which fol.
lowed his recall Thomas Paine reveal
ed the fact that supplies furnished the
colonies had been furnished by the
French government. This was con.

tury later his claim for his services
abroad was adjusted by congress and
a large sum was paid his heirs.
