hands formed a saddle, the French

The grain corporation reported to
the Food administration the other day
that heretofore oegon had been able
TO load all her newly launched ships
with wheat or wheat flour for their
maiden voyages through the Panama
Canal enroute for service at the front,
but that after June 15, unless suffi-
cient flour is turned back from deal
ers and consumers for the purpose,
the newly finished ships will have to
take on cargoes OF some other COM
modities less essential at the front.
Let us all pull together" says
Assistant Federal Food Administrator
Newell, "and fill these ships. as they
are launched, with wheat flour. Many
little make a lot. Remember that,
and turn back the contents OF your

IL enough OF these are turned back
they will make a carload. and II does
not take many corloads TO make a

Logging camps and bakeries are

also asked to do so. The answer will
be obvious to any one who will give
the matter a little consideration, and
here is another phase OF the situat-

There are many formulas for
quick breads that call for absolutely
no wheat. and these are valuable to
the housewife, whose product Is eaten
hot or at least while fresh. Such
