FINDS WAY TO MAKE
BARLEY BREAD BETTER

Keep the soda jar near the m0lding
board and the next time you make
barley bread add one teaspoOnful of
soda to each six cupfuls OF flour, then
you won't hear the family complain,
"If only barley bread didn't have that
bitter taste"
That is what Miss Amy l.. Daniels
of the home economics department of
the University of Wisconsin says, and
she has been experimenting with bar
lev -four for more than a year. In
these experiments she has found that
the soda counteractS the bitter, acid
taste to which so many object. The
taste. it is said, varies with the differ
ent fiours. Most of the fiours which
are being milled now contain more
of the outer coating of the grain than
did the f1ours made last summer, and
in consequence have a somewhat
stronger flavor than the flours that
were made earlier.

THRESHERMEN ARE ASKED TO CO.
OPERATE WITH FOOD ADMINS TRATION
A Special Threshing Committee to Be Organized in
Each Wheat Growing County in the State.

These committees will render every
possible assistance to the threshermen
in their county, paying particular at
tention to the problems involving the
repairing of machines, securing of
necessary mechanical help in co-ope-
ration with the Department of Labor,
securing sufficient supply of fuel in
cooperation with the Fuel Admin
stration, and assistance in obtaining
sufficient needed repair parts and sup
plies to last threshermen thru the COM
ing season. The committee will also
take into consideration what help, if
any, can be extended threshermen and
farmers, so that waste will be reduced
to minimum during the harvesting
operations.
Threshermens Assistants.
To cooperate to the utmost with the
threshermen, the Thresher Division
has assembled a corps of men who
are experts in repairing threshing ma
chimes and engines, and who will be
available in each state to cooperate
with the threshermen requiring expert
help. These men will be known as
threshermen's assistants and will be
subject to the call of the county thresh-
ing committees when needed.
The "threshermen's assistants" will
not act as Government officers, but
simply as friendly assistants to the
threshermen, their sole duty being to
assist in every way possible to bring
the machinery of the state up to the
highest point of efficiency and thus to
help save the grain which is so badly
needed.
Besides this cooperative plan, there
will be additional cooperation by the
manufacturers of threshing machinery,
who have agreed to send out their
service men and to render every posi-
BILE assistance to the owners and Ope-
rators of their machines.
Every machine should be operated
well within it's capacity and rush work
and wasteful methods must not be per-
mitted, as the value of the grain saved
by careful operation, if well within
the limits of their capacity, will many
times frequently offset any saving of
time which might be effected by an un-
wise speeding up of the operation.
The threshermen of the state of
Wisconsin have always been intensely
patriotic and the Food Administration
feels sure that they will Civ the

A project to mobilize Wisconsin
threshermen to save every possible
kernel Of wheat raised on Wisconsin
farms is announced by the U. S. Food
Administration. To do this a special
threshing division has been created as
part of the Federal Food Adminiistra
ton with headquarters in the State
Capitol at Madison.
1t is freely admitted by the agricul
turists, threshing machine men, ma
chine operators and others with init
mate knowledge of threshing opera
tons that there is big waste in
threshing, variously estimated at from
one to ten per cent.
Waste in threshing depends largely
upon the condition Of the machines as
they enter the harvest fields and the
care with which they are operated
While it is believed that the majority
Of machines in this state operate salts
factorily, conservative estimates would
indicate that on an average one and
one-half bushels in every one hundred
threshed can be saved by having all
machines go into the harvest fields in
excellent repair with ample power and
by seeing that during harvesting they
are efficiently adjusted to meet varying
conditions.
One bushel in every 100 threshed
can be saved by having all machines
in such repair that little or no grain
leaks under and around them on the
ground and providing that what does
leak out in this manner and is other
wise scattered by the machine is
cleaned up and threshed before the
thresher leaves the field
Three-fourths of bushel in every
hundred threshed can be saved by
careful handling of bundles from the
shock to the machine or stack and by
arranging the bundle wagons so that
all grain that skaters in them shall
be caught in them and saved. Thus il
is estimated that a total of three and
one-fourth bushels in every hundred
threshed may be saved.
Committees to Control Work.
A special threshing committee will
be organized in each county composed
Of the County Food Administrator
County Agricultural Agent and re
tired thresherman representing the
state or local Counsel of National De
fence Each of these committees will
open county headquarters accessible
at all times to farmers and thresher
men,

WHY FRANCE NEEDS WHEAT

France never did produce all the
wheat she used. In 1914 her production
was about 80 per cent of the normal
consumption. In 1917 the production
was but As per cent of the normal pro-
duction.
After deducting the amount neces-
sary for seed, it is estimated that the
1917 production will be one-third
Frances needs.
France cannot economic on food as
much more than usual as we can in the
United States because her food con-
sumption has always been very close
to her actual food necessities. They
cannot increase their supplies by war
gardens, for most of them are in the
habits of growing their own garden
supplies, and they are famed for their
careful household management.
Last year France kept her food sup
ply (prOduCtiOn plus exports) up to
Sc per cent of normal. This year it has
fallen to between 60 and 70 per cent.
The rations of the French soldiers
has been cut twice. A soldiers ration
is never lowered until the danger at
home from food shortage far outweighs
the damage the same lack can do at
the front.
England, who needs food badly, con-
siders the French situation so serious
that she shares her scanty supply of
wheat with France.

USE MORE MILK
Surplus of Dairy Products in U.
S. Should Be Substituted
for Meat and Wheat.

Milk is one of the most important
food sources the human race possesses
For the proper nourishment of the
child it is absolutely indispensable. 1t
contains all the essential food elements
in the most available form for ready
digestion, and recent scientific discov-
cries show 1t to be especially rich in
certain peculiar properties that alone
render growth possible. For the pur-
pose of stimulating growth, butter fat
and other constituents of milk have
no substitutes.
Due to the shortage of shipping and
the priority Of wheat, the usual export
of butter, cheese, and condensed milk
is cut off. If these products are not
consumed, the prices for them will fall
so low that the dairymen will not pro-
duce them.
This must not happen. We must
maintain our present rate Of supply
and prepare to increase it so we can
ship dairy products to the Allies when
the shipping situation improves.
France and Great Britain face a seri-
Gus shortage of milk. French food reg
ulations forbid public eating houses to
serve or consume butter except in the
preparation of certain food, and in Lon
don, an adult cannot buy glass OF
milk even if he is willing to pay $40
for it, 1t is certain that these countries
will make heavy demand on us for
dairy products, and even for herds,
when the shipping conditions permit
of their transportation.
Milk, butter and cheese furnish the
vital elements of nutrition. Pound for
pound cottage cheese equals lean meat
in food value, it is just as efficient a
muscle builder as meat or eggs, and
more efficient than cereals. Butter and
milk are requisite to the health and
growth of children, and, considered
with respect to their relative food
value are cheap at an apparently high
price.
A greater use of the dairy products
results in a necessary increase in the
dairy business, conservation OF grains.
and better nutrition for the public.

BUTTER A GOOD FOOD

AS a food, butter contains two ele-
ments which make it distinct from
other foods. First, it's power to stimu-
late growth, and second, its power to
serve as source of energy for the
maintenance of bodily activity. From
this point of view, it may be truthfully
said that butter fat has no substitute.
This applies in a less degree to all
dairy products containing butter fat.
They are highly nutritious and COM
paritively cheap food.
