In the opinion of many officers here.
the time is fast approaching when Amer
lean officers from the other side will be
relied upon for the training of the Amer
lean army, rather than veterans OF
trench warfare from the French and
British services. Men who are most in
sistent on this point of view believe
trench WARFARE has produced nothing as
yet which justified the abandonment of
all other theories of military operations
for high specialization in trench action.
II AmeFica is to contribute largely to
the ulti11ate defeat OF the German arm<,
they fbld. she must contribute something
besiees manpower; she must contribute
to die working out of new theory OF
OPERATIONS which will bring victory as
trench warfare has not done. For that
reason they feel it would be a mistake
to lose the Cash and initiative of the
American army in training for trench
action.

Some Good Rice Recipes.

AS staple article Of diet, rice may
be boiled in sailed water and used like
potato or sweet potato as a yege-
table at meal at which fish, meat,
eggs, beans or other foods rich In pro-
TEN are served. Wholly or partially
cooked rice can be used with cheese,
minced meat or poultry, fish, eggs,
beans, gravy, ETC., for a variety OF
made dishes, the combinations consti-
futing dishes In which most Of the
needed food elements are present. II
also may be used as major or minor
ingredient in stews and soups.
Instead of serving rice plain as a
vegetable, 1t may be stewed with to-
matoes. cooked in double boiler with
tomato juice, soup stock or milk, or
II may be seasoned with curry pow
DER, onions or other seasoning mate
fiais. BY using skim milk in. this way
partially economical dish is pro-
duced.
AS a cereal for breakfast, rice may
be boiled in milk and sweetened or
eaten with butter, and salt. If 1t is
desired, dried fruits such as dates or
Talslns maybe cooked With the rice,
Cold boiled rice, mixed with pancake
or muffin batters of wheat, buckwheai
or ,eefnmeal, for instance, makesesa
pleasing addition to such food prod
ucts, reduces the quantity of wheat
needed, and furnishes method fCz
using the leftover cereal.

RICE FAVORED AS
NUTRITIOUS FOOD
If Consumption Could Be In
creased in United States More
Wheat Could Be Saved.
GREAT VALUE NOT REALIZED
seMost Important Arttele of Diet. in
China and Japan-increased Pro-
duction Would Release Grain
for Our Allies.


Here In the United States it is diff
cult TO realize that there IS no other
edible product, excepting meat, upon
which more people in the world are de-
pendent for food, than rice We might
auVantageouSly consume much greater
quantities of this NUTRITIOUS food and
grow the increase incur own rice
helds, according to the 1913 erop-pro-
duction program recently announced
by the United States department of
agriculture. An increased production
and consumption not only would ex-
pand a profitable industry, the federal
specialists declare, but the eating of
more rice in the place of wheat would
release greater quantity of the bread
grain for shipment to the allies.
4 Per Capita Consumption.
The average per capita consumption
OF rice for food in this country is
scarcely six pounds year, and most
OF this is consumed in the. Southern
states. The high esteem in which rice
Is held in other countries is indicated
by their per capita consumption. Nor
way and Sweden consume over o
pounds per capita; Russia over IL
pounds; England 2T pounds; France,
"a pounds; Italy, over J01 pounds, and
Germany more than 90 pounds. But
even these European countries do not
begin to eat as much rice as japan
ana CHINA There rice is the most Inn

erage consumes 147 pounds of rice

pounds. The placing of such depend
ence upon rice as staple food GER
tainly proves beyond doubt that it is
highly nutritious; analysis of rice sup
ports this proof. Pound for pound rice
is about as nutritious as wheat Every
100 pounds of cleaned rice contains
ST. pounds of nutriment, of which 8
pounds are protein, 0.3 pounds fat, 70
pounds carbohydrates, and Oh pound
ash The analysis of wheat flour. shows
that 1t contains ST. pounds of nutri-
ment in each 100 pounds, of which los
pounds are protein, L pounds fat. "A. s
pounds carbohydrates, and 0.4 pound
ASH. Thus the total nutriment in rice
is q tribe greater than Ia wheat.
Wheat has the advantage in protein
and rice in carbohydrates. x
Foodstuff for Orient.
Although rice is the great foodstuff
OF the Orient, it is notsused there in
making a raised breadl In Ibis coun-
try dietitians have made excellent
bread by substituting as high as %
per cent of rice for wheat flour, and
nave obtained a white yeast bread Of
excellent flavor.
Unpublished rice is. offered and ac-
copied as product superior to the
polished rice, but in reality its food
value is only better by so small de-
gree that it is practically negligible.

rome layer, and germ, which contains
much protein and other important food
constituents. are removed, reducing
greatly the nutritive value of the
grain. The real difference between
these two mill products is largely in
the coating of the polished rice with
glucose and tale, and the absence of
coating material on the unpublished.
The superiority of the brown rice
over either of these lies In the fact
that the entire seed as nature pro-
duced it is used, except the inclosing
husks or hulls, which have been re-
moved.

BROWN RICE BETTER THAN
FHEoR0Ll SH ED-ASkatE0R H

Rice as sold .by our grocers is
a pretty grain with a smooth
and shiny surface, attractive to
the eye, but lacks the palatable-
ness that makes foods popular.
This rice has been so highly
miiled that it has been robbed
of much of its food value and
of most Of its oily flavoring mat
ter, leaving a product known
to the trade as polished rice,
which TO many persons is taste
less. If the American housewife
could be induced to demand
brown rice instead of taking the :
polished product, there would be
marked increased consump-
ton of this cereal In very
short time, due in part If not
entirely to the pleasing flavor
of the kernel.
