"A halfdozen of your nice white wheat cakes Mother"

Wheatless day; but here's some hot cakes" says
Mother.
And, on the way down to the office, Dad thinks on
corn, like this:
Corn the pioneer American crop and is still the
cereal crop in which America leads the world The
early voyagers took back to Europe Of corn as
curiosity Our Pilgrim fathers almost lived on corn Corn
the first crop planted in all the virgin soil as was
settled from the Atlantic to the broad praes and beyond
Those who cleared off the forest and brush put in corn
first thing and so it goes to this day.
There is hardly domestic animal but it thrives best
In mush form, it is better for pups and kit
tens than meat AS esaver flesh-builder comes

And it will help win a worlds war!
Mother, of those hot corn cakes please !
I'm beginning to eat with my brains," says Dad next
