A gradual amelioration of tht
acute labor conditions seems to be
taking place on the Louisiana su
gar plantations though there is
still woeful shortage of hands
and should a freeze occur the
available labor will be entirely
inadequate to handle the situa

during the past week has been ex-

bright sunshine. Fair progress is
being made at all the factories and

CORN WILL WIN
DEMOCRACY'SW WAR.
Americas Greatest Cereal Crop
Is Now Moving to
Market.
MAINSTAY IN NATIONS CRISIS.
Surplus Wheat Of the United States
, Has Been Sent to Famine ThrssA
sned Europe

Americas great corn crop, exceed
ing 3,0O0,000,00 bushels, will save the
worlds food situation, officials Of the
United States food administration be-
lieve.
Corn Is the nations best food cereal,
housewives are beginning TO realize.
1t contains all the elements needed to
keep the body in state OF health and
when used according TO the scores Of
tried recipes, especially when COM
blned with an added portion Of oil or
fat, will sustain life indefinitely. In.
dian warriors In colonial days lived on
parched corn alone for many days at q
time, and at Valley Forge parched
corn was at times the sole ration OF
the Continental soldiers.
Owing to transportation difficulties
caused by the var the corn crop moved
more slowly to market this year than
ever before. Now, however, the cereal
Is reaching the millers and consumers.
In the meantime the nations surplus
wheat has been sent to Europe.
Today there are approximately 80
bushels of corn for every American.
This quantity is greater by Ave bush
els than In former years.
Corn has become the nations main.
stay In the crisis OF war.
Just as this cereal saved the first
American colonists from famine on
many occasions, just as 1t served as n
staple food during the War of the Rev
olution and during the Civil War, King
Corn has again come to the front In
the nations battle with autocracy.
Corn meal is finding greatly increas-
cd use In the making of ordinary white
bread Hundreds of housewives and
many of the larger bakers are mixing
20 per cent. corn meal with wheat
-four TO make leavened bread. This
kind of a mixture Is worked and baked
in the same recipes and with the same
methods that apply to straight wheat
bread.
Corn bread--using corn meal entire.
ly--is gaining greater popularity
than ever before. Housewives are
coming to realize that every pound OF
wheat saved Ia America means u pound
Of wheat released for shipment TO the
nations with which America lie associ-
ated In the war.
There are score of corn products
that today possess unusual Importance
for Americans. Corn syrup for sweet.
