And this extra store Of grain IL com
ing on to the market In the nick Of
time, since the American wheat sur
plus has been sent to help feed famine
threatened Europe.
Just as II happened In the Colonial
days, the War Of the Revolution. and
the Civil War. corn has actually be-
come the nations mainstay.
In the entire list of Americas food
commodities there Is no Item that IL

any other cereal. contains all of tho
elements essential to maintaining life
and health.
In order that the fighting men

may be fed. and In order that actual
famine may be kept from the nations
associated with America in the war.
the citizens OF America are finding
corn products delicious and palatable

fact that "wheatless days" here mean
more wheat for the war worn allied
nations In Europe.
England. France and Italy must be
fed from Americas great storehouse.
They will get some corn-especially
ItaIy-but most of their grain ship
ments must be wheat Their ability
to use corn is small compared to the
facilities they have for using wheat.
And 1t is the opinion Of officials in
Washington that the present is no time
TO try and change the eating habits of
Europe.
Americas greatest use OF corn will
be in the form of corn bread and corn
meal, mixed with wheat In the making
of leavened bread.
Mixed with so per cent wheat -four.
corn meal can be used in bread max

than bread baked with wheat alone.

He pointed out that sugar was sell

administration secured the co-opera-

ables housewives to buy sugar at from

Every cent raise in sugar from

Mr.. Hoover said. "Numbers OF gen

would have prevailed and the public
robbed of $50. 100000 this year ii we

Mr.. Hoover called attention to the fact
that uncontrolled sugar advanced to

WAR Bread COSTLY To
BRITISH GOVERNMENT

Every year the British government
pays 500. 100000 toward the cost Of
that nations war bread. That Is the
principal reason why English bread
prices are lower today TO the consumer
than In America. Incidentally the
British bread Is much poorer than the
American
Great Britain has taken over all
home grown grain, bought at an arbi-
trary price. and all imported wheat
bought In markets of the world at pre-
vsillng prices. This Is turned over to
the mills by the government at a price
that allows the adulterated war bread
loaf OF four pounds to sell at IS cents.
The two pound loaf costs 8 cents, and
the one pound loaf sells for 8 cents
In milling, however, IA per cent.
more -four is extracted from the wheat
than in America. And there Is com

and an allowable adulteration of 80

Effect on Military Situation.

he sent to Java, where 10000 tons of
sugar Is waiting for shipment. But
the shipping situation is so acute that
the nation cannot spare the eleven
ships needed to transport this sugar.
II would take the boats one year TO
haul 10000 tons. In the same time
they could be used for transporting
200. 900 soldiers TO France.
The food administration believes
that the American public Will diminish
its sugar consumption by 10 or Is per
cent. when II is made clear that such
sugar saving is a patriotic act and
when II is understood that there are
plenty of sweeteners available TO take
the place OF sugar. such as honey or
corn syrup.
Why Shortage Exists.
The three great sugar producing cen
ters Of the world are Germany. the
West and East Indies. German sugar
is, of course. used at home. The East
Indian sugar is unavailable because of
the ship shortage.
While U boats made big inroads on
the worlds shipping. France and Italy
ceased to be self sustaining in sugar
manufacture. England In the mean
time was cut on from German sugar
/. 400. 900 tons a year-because Of the
war. The result has been that the al
lied nations have been forced to turn
to America and the West Indies for
their sugar.
