DANGER! WATCH BABY'S
HOT-WEATHER FOOD

August is the danger month for
babies. Watch them carefully.
The following advice on hot
weather care of babies Is written
by Mrs. Max West in her pamphlet
on Infant Care published by the
United States Children's Bureau.
"Diarrhoea, which is the cause OF
most infant deaths, is most preva-
lent during the summer. During
July and August all babies. but
especially bottle-fed babies. require
extra care. To keep baby well:
Keep him out Of doors at all
times except when excessive heat
makes it cooler indoors.
Remove all baby's clothing ex-
cept the flannel abdomen band and
diaper.
Give baby three or four cool
sponge baths every day.
Reduce the average quantity OF
food given by two-thirds. especially
on very hot days. Give large
amounts OF cool boiled water in
stead of the milk.
AT first signs of diarrhoea,
which are the appearance of green
color in the bowel movements, and
fretfulness in the child's behavior
reduce the amount of milk fed by
half. use skinned milk, and omit
all sugar. II the trouble continues
or increases stop all feeding, give
only plain boiled water. consult q

WAR SANDWICHES
ARE WHEATLESS

A wartime sandwich IL q difncuit
achievement. The common or garden
variety Of picnic sandwich was al
ways built according to age-old spec
ifications-a piece Of meat or meat
filling between two pieces Of bread.
But nowadays, thanks to conditions
imposed by war and Mr.. Hoover. the
sandwich is changed object. for the
bread must be wheatless, and the
middle should be meatless!
| However. q picnic without sand
wiches would be as unthinkable as q
doughnut without a hole. and once
more the American housewife Is re-
quired to invent something just as
good and q little better than the origi-
| nal. dainty. Here are two wheatless
breads, a brown bread and a corn
bread. both Of which make excellent
sandwiches. The corn bread sand
wiches are delicious II the bread is
baked fresh on q sheet Of tin or
pan on top of the camp stove, split.
buttered. filled with the sandwich
mixture and eaten warm. Cold corn
bread sandwiches are almost equally
good.
The U. 8. Food Administration rec
ommends this wheatless sandwich
bread:
Cornmeal batter bread-Pour 1 cup
fui Of boiling water over cupful Of
granulated cornmeal and add to 1t 2
tablespoonfuls Of fat. ! tablespoonful
of sugar, and Ia teaspoonfuls Of salt.
Allow the mixture to cool and then
add teaspoonfuls of baking powder.
the beaten yolk of egg, and " cup
full OF sweet milk. Beat well and last
of all stir In the beaten white of the
egg. Bake in muffin tins or on baking
sheet pan. Use all measurements
level For cornbread sandwich fill-
ings chopped oil sardines mixed with
oil or mayonnaise or chopped pickle
are delicious and so are hard-boiled
eggs mixed with dressing. or chopped
cucumber and spring onion mayon-
naise.
Barley brown bread-sift together 2
