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
bined 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
time, and at Valley Forge parched
corn was at times the sole ration of
the Continental soldiers.
Owing to transportation difficulties
caused by the war 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 30
bushels of corn for every American.
This quantity IS greater by five 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 it served as
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
flour 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
1y-is gaining greater popularity
than ever before. Housewives are
coming to realize that every pound of
wheat saved in America means pound

There are score of corn products
that today possess unusual Importance
for Americans. Corn syrup for sweet
ening corn cakes and buckwheat cakes.
and for use in the kitchen instead of
graduated sugar is one of the.leading
products made from corn.
Corn oil, excellent for frying and for
every other purpose filled by salad oils,
is appearing on the market in large
quantities. 1t comes from the germ of
the corn.

SUGAR SHORTAGE Is
BROUGHT TO AMERICA
BY CHANCES OF WAR

Slice the pinch Of the sugar
shortage pressed In upon the
sweets-loving American populace,
every one who has had a part Of
his regular sugar rations cut
down has asked, either himself or
some one else "Whyi"
In the past France. Italy and the
Low countries raised their own sugar
England received over one-haH Of her
supply from the Teutonic Empires, i'm
ported largely from Java. One-half of
Americas sugar supply Ia obtained
from Cuba, one-seventh from the sugar
beet production of the United States.
one-eighth from Hawaii. one-twentiefh
from Louisiana. and the rest from
Porto Rico. and the Philippines.
Factories Destroyed.
Because OF the destruction Of the
greater part of their factories. the pro-
duction of both Italy and France has
been cut down to onethird. Tho Cen
trial Powers-their regular source of
snpply-has been cut off. They must,
therefore, depend almost entirely upon
America
There is vast quantities of sugar
stored in Java, but neither time nor
ships can be spared while sugar can
lie obtained elsewhere by one-third
the haul.
Why Saver
Why are Americans urged to save
sugar?
They must meet the Allied shortage;
they must release ships formerly used
In the sugar trade to carry soldiers
and supplies to Europe: they must
make up the loss Of beet sugar lands
and factories captured OF destroyed
by the Germans in Northern France
and Italy. Ships which would have
kept up the flow of sugar have been
sunk. Twenty-six thousand tons OF
sugar were lost recently in submarine
raids upon Americas Atlantic coast.
FIFTY thousand tons of sugar carrying
shipping were transferred 10 meet the
requirements of Belgian relief.
Civil War Price.
In spite of the shortage, sugar is
selling all over the United States at
8 n cents to 10 cents a pound During
the Civil War. when no shortage
threatened. sugar sold for 35 cents a
pound owing to speculation which was
rampant and which, in this war. has
been checked by the United States
Food Administration regulations.
Therefore Americans are asked to
save sugar because others need It; not
to hoard 1t because boarding is selfish,
cowardly and unpatriptic and because
the Food Control act provides fines OF
not more than $4,000 and imprison-
ment for hoarders.
Save sugar.

-IN-GERMANY LIES
CIRCULATED IN CANADA

Canada is also having trouble with
Made-in-Germany lies calculated to
hinder Canadian food conservation ac-
cording to an official statement re-
ceived from the Canadian food con-
troller by the United States food adj
ministration.
The stories bothering Canada are
of the same general character as those
the United States food administra-
tor recently denounced in this coun-
try, such as the ridiculous salt and
biueing famine fakes and the report
that the government would seize
housewives stocks of home canned
goods
The Canadian food controller esti-
mates that when the people listen to
and pass on such stories, each one
has the power of destruction that lies
in battalion of soldiers,
Stories without even vestige of
foundation have been scattered broad
cast" said the Canadian statement.
Nor have they come to life casually.
They have started simultaneously in
different parts of the country and in
each instance have been calculated to
arouse public indignation.
They are insidious, subtle. persist
ent. Bit by bit they dissipate public
trust, the great essential in the work
of food control
1T lies with every Individual to for
bear from criticism: to refrain from
passing on the vagrant and harmful
story, and thus the more effectively
to cooperate in work which Is going
to mean more than the majority of
people yet realize"

COLORADO DESERVES PRAISE
MAXIMUM OF CROPS MOVED
WITH MINIMUM OF LOSS

Colorado food producers, Colorado
railroads, and the Colorado Food Ad.
ministration's transportation division
are today reaping Jointly a great har-
vest Of congratulations.
Fruit. grain, vegetables and live
stock have flowed In an uninterrupted
chain quickly and smoothly from the
remotest ranches of the state into the
markets.
Here are the statements that A. v.
Kipp, chairman of the transportation
division OF the Colorado Food Admin
istration has given out regarding CROP
and live stock movements this year.
Western slope fruit growers today
have more money In their pockets
net profit from marketed crops-than
In many previous years. They have
lost practically nothing thru carEhort-
age and consequent fruit wastage.
Missouri river terminals and east
ern elevators have had to place an
embargo on receiving any more grain
until they can take care of the train
loads that the West has dumped at
their gates.
Refrigerator cars have been made
available for the potato movement
and all perishable vegetables sent
quickly on their way to market"
And Mr.. Kipp announces that by
october l every fat sheep, II Is be-
heved, will have been loaded aboard
car and on Its way to market be-
lore, single animal is lost thru In

tricts.

LESS SUGAR is
Allotted STATE
FOR new MONTH

Skulkiug submarines. a great msr-
chant fleet transformed into a gigantic
ocean bi idge over which Americas
khaki cli I'd army has marched into the
battlefi9 Id of Europe, have combined
to put the people of the United States
once m ore to the test. This time the
nation faces shortage of sugar. This
time, instead of the national passion
for hakey white wheat bread and
fluffy cakes the national sweet tooth
has to be combated and educated and
made to sacrifice its share to the Altar
OF Liberty.
New allotment Of sugar to consum-
'.rs. according to recent dispatches
from Washington. will be two
pounds per person per month. In
stead of three pounds as formerly al
lowed. Colorado's entire sugar allot
ment for July was 1882. 900 pounds. In
August the state will be allowed only
2,29S,000 pounds of sugar which is a
decrease Of 1.4S4,o00 pounds for this
state alone.
According to present calculations.
housewives will be able to obtain can
ming sugar up to limited extent de-
pending entirely upon the supply Food
Administration officials urge all house
wives to use discretion in their can
ming and avoid canning heavy jams
and preserves which take much more
sugar than the canned whole fruits
Officials also unge that wherever DOS
sible fruits and vegetables be dried in
stead OF canned as this process takes
no sugar whatever.
Never forget that the sugar situa-
ton Is serious and every Coxoradoan
should bend every effort to the saving
Of sugflr.

PROTEST UNAVAILlNG AT ARK
TIONAL CONVENTION.
SESSION is PROLONGED
Delegates Battle With Proposition To
Adjourn, But Decide To Hold Over
At Least Until Next Week
For Business.
Little Rock

LlICIG 1COCk.--
The constitutional convention re-
versed itself on the prohibition
amendment adopted several weeks
ago. and after a heated debate pass
ed a measure more drastic than any
yet adopted by any state in the
Union, it was stated ON the floor of
the convention. The measure adopt
ed was introduced by Delegate Clay
Sloan of Lawrence county, and reads
as follows:
Section 1T shall be forever I'M
lawful for any person, firm, corpora
ton or association to manufacture
any Intoxicating liquors of any kind
in this state.
"Sec. Pit shall be forever unlaw-
full for any person, firm, corporation
or association to import into, deliver,
sell, own or keep within this state
any intoxicating liquors of any kind,
except wine for sacramento purposes
and alcohol for medicinal, industrial
or scientific purposes.
1.-THE legislative powers of the state
enforcement of this article.
Col. Joseph w House, one of the
few surviving members Of the 1894
constitutional convention, vigorously
opposed the measure and denounced
it in unmeasured terms, saying that
the idea of preventing a man from
having liquor in his home for medici-
nal purposes was preposterous.
The convention again battled with
the proposition to adjourn, but decid-
ed to remain in session at least one
more week.
Delegate McRae of Prescott offered
a substitute for section 5 of the taxa
ton proposals, an amended section of
the old constitution providing for
equal and uniform taxation Of all
property in the state, but eXempting
town, city, levee and Improvement
district bonds from taxation, as well
as charities, parsonages, schools, cerG-
eteries and endowment funds for
schools and charitable institutions
not invested in real estate.
Col McRae said that he offered the
substitute in the interest of harmony
and in order that the convention
could make more Roadway in the tax
alton discussion, which had occupied
nearly two weeks time.
