WHEAT-SAVING POPULAR.

A wonderful response has attended
the appeal of Timothy A. Rordan to
the housewives Of Arizona to forego
the use of wheat in any form until the
next harvest. This is in keeping with
the purely voluntary patriotic move
ment which is sweeping the country,
especially in rural sections and in the
homes of the wellto-do everywhere.
Under the leadership of Miss Gun
nellie Peterson of Tempe, state chair
man of the Women'S War Committee,
and MIS-. Mary Pritner Lockwood,
state home economics director of the
Food Administration, the women Of
the state are being organized for the
purpose of taking up a course Of six
lessons on food conservation in the
home, with especial emphasis to the
use of substitutes for wheat flour
This work is already we'll under way
IN Marlcopa county, where some 63
units have been established. Church
organizations have taken up the work,
and with the assistance Of domestic
science teachers of the rural schools,
it is planned to offer the course to the
residents of every school district In
the county
Much interest has been manifested
in the nO-Wheat bread contest which
closed April %. The recipes entered
in this contest have been turned over
to committee of experts in home
economics who will decide the winner
of the $25 prize which was offered by
a member Of the executive staff of the
Federal Food Administration for Ari-
zona.
1t is believed that many valuable
formulas for no-wheat and near-wheat-
less yeast bread have been gathered
in this manner and it is planned to
give these wide distribution through
out the state to housewives interested

Will You Be Ready For
Inspection?

The boys at the front now are oc-
cupying trenches. Some are in the
first line trenches. dispatches tell us.
You at home are in the back line
trench.
The fellows in the front line
trenches must stand inspection regu-
larly.
You in the back line trench, too,
must stand inspection. Will you be
ready?
Remember, those brave lads across
the sea are depending upon you to
stand by them Everything they have
came from the fighters in the back
line trench-the big trench right here
in America.
Perhaps you don't realize the great
responsibility resting with you. 1t is
just as great as that shouldered by
the brave fellow across the sea-
Be a real soldier in the back line
trench, so you can stand inspection.
Be good soldier in the home
trench--Buy Liberty Bonds.
The wars success or failure, so far
as Uncle Sam is concerned depends
on what you do or don't do:
Save food. help the Red Cross buy
Liberty Bonds.
Just look yourself over. Take an in
ventory of your bank account. Gaze
over your record and see if you've
done your duty as a back trench sol
dier since Uncle Sam entered the
war
If you can afford to buy Liberty
Bonds, and don't, then you are aid,

Are you that kind of a back trench

TO KEEP CORN MEAL.

w. E, Doty, Miami baker, is au-
th0rity for the statement that no
housewife should experience the
slightest difficulty in keeping corn
meal or milo maize meal on hand dur
ing the summer, even throughout the
hottest weather without contamination
: by weeyil if the proper precautions are
observed.
Meal in sacks, he says, should be set
on small platform to keep it off the
floor, and so arranged that there is an
air space on all sides The outside OF
the sack should be carefully busted at
least once a week. In addition fresh
hops should be sprinkled around the
sacks. These hops grow wild in many
portions Of Arizona
This is a method which Mr.. Doty
has followed in his bakery and which
can be adapted by any housewife to
meet her needs. Meal placed in open
bins does not keep so well. 1t has
more Of a chance to heat and the in
sect which lays the egg for the weevil
has better opportunity to get into
the meal than when it is contained
in d cotton bag

DO NOT WASTE MILK.

AS matter Of conservation and to
encourage the dairy industry of Arizo-
na the Food Administration is encour-
aging the use Of milk as substantial
article of diet
There is an abundance of milk at
this season Of the year, it is pointed
out, and not a drop of it should be
wasted 1t should be made into cot
tage cheese. Cottage cheese is as
much a food as beefsteak and is not
merely a relish. Here is one way to
make it:
Heat one quart of sour milk to 100
degrees, Cuke warm) and turn into
strainer lined with cheesecloth Pour
over one quart hot water and as soon
as water has drained through, pour
over another quart, then ,repeat.
Gather cheesecloth around curd to
form bag, and let hang until curd Is
free from whey Moisten with melted
butter and heavy cream, and salt to
suit taste. Shape into small balls.

POTATOES VS.. WHEAT

Wheat is needed for the front line
over there. Let Arizona potatoes
serve as the home guard over here, ;"
says Timothy A. Riordan, federal food
administrator for Arizona
Potatoes were called to the colors
year ago The result was a bumper
crop, some of which is still on our
hands.
Potatoes grown through patriotism
should be eaten through patriotism
They will go to waste if they are not
eaten within the next few weeks.
Some hotels are adopting the plan
OF serving free potatoes if no wheat
bread is ordered. There are almost
fifty ways in which you can use them.
'Housekeepers will find potatoes
rice and hominy the dependables as
substitute for bread in the less
bread program that must be rigorous
