Do This After You Eat
Hot Weather "Out of Fix" Stomachs
Easily Put Right

When hot weather comes, stomach
and bowel miseries begin. Strong,
sound stomachs as we'll as weak ones
are easily affected by the harmful
gases and acids so often produced in
the things we eat and drink during
hot weather. Winter-Nature's ice
box, is gone-hot weather breeds
the poisonous germs that cause pto-
maine poison In all its many forms.
Every one knows that the after-eat-
ing nausea, belching, that wretched,
bloated, "lumpy" feeling, sour stom-
ach, heartburn, food repeating, and
other forms of indigestion and dys-
pepsia are far more frequent during
hot weather. 1t is the time when you
have to guard constantly against an
upset stomach and the many ills that
are always apt to follow. Then again
we have the worlds war to win
with the change of diet and extra
work which means we must all care

A marvellous relief and prevention
has been found for stomach sufferers,
which makes 1t possible for you to eat

MUSH AND MILK.

What has become Of the old.
time bowl of cornmeal mush and
milk? 1t is an American dish,
cheap, nourishing and palatable.
The older generation loved It;
and for economical, sentimental
and patriotic reasons we should
now go back to 1t and take all
America with us. Mush and
milk furnishes a balanced ra-
ton, yet contains no wheat, no
meat, no sugar. It Is a whole
meal in itself. and while the war
lasts 1t should be used more
largely In this country. Its
larger use here will release other
and more concentrated foods for
our armies and the armies Of the
allies. We are producing an
abundance Of food; we will save
1t for our boys across the water;
and food will help to win the
war. The Austrians, Bulgari-
ans. Turks and Germans are be-
ginning to see this, and the kali
ser also believes and trembles.

Fruits Save suoer.

All ripe fruits contain sugar. The
amount varies from about three ounces
or one-fifth cupful per pound in fresh
figs and plums to about one-half ounce
per pound in watermelon.
If the water is driven of from fruits,
as in the drying process. the sugar
becomes far more prominent than 1t
is In fresh fruits. Dried fruits. there
fore. taste far sweeter than fresh ones
and are for this reason often classed
among the sweets. It should be re-
membered, however, that sugar u
present in all.fresh fruits, even In the
most acid ones, and that those persons
who wish to do 80 can economize ON
other kinds Of sugar by eating large
amounts Of fresh fruits in unsweet-
ened forms.
In warm weather melons and other
fruits may be used In place Of "made"
desserts, which usually contain both
butter and sugar. Fruit and ice-cold
5unket, which can be prepared from
skim milk. make a refreshing dessert
and utilize perishable foods chiefly.
Or the dessert course may be omitted
entirely and a fruit salad with cot
tage cheese may be used in its place.

Plenty of Good Milk to Take Away

Try Our Mush Recipes Until knaek Of
Cooking Just Long Enough Has
Been Discovered - Dried
Fruits Add Variety.

Mush and milk for breakfast or
lunch makes a simple dish fit for q
king-but like all other simple dishes
It must be made just right or the king
won't like it. The secret of serving
cofnmeal this way lies in plenty of
milk and not too much mush. In the
first place see that the mush is not
too thick-try out your recipes until
you find the knack of cooking 1t just
long enough. No one enjoys dry, thick
mush. Then serve moderate portions
with a generous amount of milk or
cream on top-and have plenty more
in the pitcher to add later on. Raisins,
dates. figs and other dried fruits give
variety to the dish and please the chill
dren. They sweeten the mush ana
save sugar.
The most common way OF prepar.
ing mush is to allow the water to
come to the boiling point and to add
the meal slowly. stirring constantly.
The objection to this method is that
there IL considerable danger that the
mush will become lumpy and often
times It Is inconvenient and unpleas-
ant to stand over hot stove and stir
the mixture sufficiently to make It
smooth. A better method. therefore,

Statement from State Chairman Con-
seryatiOn and Production.

Columbia, Sept. 1--we had big
wheat crop this year, so there Is no
necessity Of conserving. There is
plenty of sugar in the, country; the
warehouses of wholesale grocers are
flied with it: We can all use all the
sugar we want
Reports of this kind, probably cir
culated by German propagandists in
this State, are denied by William Ell
liott, food administrator for South
Carolina. The housewife can make no
greater mistake than to be led astray
by such reports and suggestions.
Statements Of this kind tend to slack
en- the efforts Of the patriotic public
by clouding the real situation.
The new wheat conservation pro-
Gam must be observed So that we
may not only feed the allies but that
we may build up a reserve for the
:uture," says the food administration.
The changing OF the $3.50 rule to
he 1920 rule does not mean conser-
gation of wheat is no longer neces-
sary. With the new wheat crop the
food administration has been enabled
to modify the wheat regulations, but
these new regulations must be rigidfy
observed.
The use Of corn bread should be
continued. Corn meal for corn bread
should be purchased in addition to
% that bought with standard wheat
-four. Corn zeal bought as sub
eitute should be used in wheat bread.
only fours and meals are substitutes
now. Rice, rolled oats, oat meal,
lominy, grits, and edible corn starch
no longer are on the lists.
Sugar must be conserved in the
household There is a serious short
age of sugar. Those who: take more
than their share from the nations
sugar bowl are doing an unpatriotic
act
''All kinds of food should be used
without waste America must not fall
short Of her obligation to her men on
the fighting front nor to the soldiers
and civilians Of the Allies. The food

people literally held the Allies to-
gether through the spring ana sum-
