SEIZURE OF HOUSEWIVES
FOOD STOCKS IMPOSSIBLE

The government has never consid-
cred any plan of Selling foodstuffs
owned by householders Nor is there
any policy of this kind suggested for
the future.
In spite Of this fact, the United
States food administration has been
obliged repeatedly to issue official de-
malls Of rumors that the government
intends communicating preserves and
canned goods put up in American
homes.
These rumors were originated partly
by pro-German propagandists and part
~ by conscienceless grafters, who
sought to profit through buying from
misinformed housewives.
The year 1918 will see home canning
and preserving prscticed on greater
scale than ever before In the nations
history, officials in Washington believe.
And they are assuring all patriotic
housewives that foods SO saved are
theirs, and theirs alone.

WHEAT-C0RN YEAST BREAD.

Wheat-corn bread Is more nutritious
than bread baked with wheat flour
alone. Thousands of American fam
lilies today are using this mixed flour
bread, and in so doing are enabling
America to provide more wheat flour
for the allies. Here's a tested recipe
for this bread: Take one and a half
cups of milk, water or a mixture Of
the two; one-half cake compressed
yeast, one and a half teaspoons salt,
one tablespoon sugar, one tablespoon
of fat If desired, one cup cornmeal
and two cups wheat -four.
Put one and half, cups of water,
the cornmeal, salt, sugar and fat df
used) into a double boiler and cook
twenty minutes. The water is sufti-
cient only to soften the meal little.
Allow the meal to cool to about the
temperature of the room and add the
flour and yeast mixed with the rest
of the water. Knead thoroughly,
make into loaf, place in pan of stand
ard size, allow to rise until nearly
fills the pan and bake As or so min
utes. 1t is hardly practicable to use
greater percentage Ol COTlllledl IlldH
this even in emergencies, for bread 30
made differs very little from baked
mush. Less cornmeal can be used
and in sucn a case the general meth
cd given above may be followed.
1t is possible to make yeast raised
corn bread without first cooking the
cornmeal In this case not more than
ono cunf,,l Of meal should he uSed IN
four cupfuls of -four. In other re-
spects the bread is mixed and baked
as in .he above recipe.

To Help Save Food.

Steps are being taken by the
United States Food Administration
to mobilize for food administration
work this years graduating classes
in women's colleges and co.educa-
tional institutions throughout the
country. Herbert Hoover is ad-
dressing letter to the graduating
women which reads as follows:
The United States Food Admin
istration calls you to its service.
Our need is so great that we appeal
to you to prepare yourselves as
best you can and to enlist for the
great work that must be done.
There will be diversity of tasks and
therefore diversity of talent and
training can be used.
All our questions now center in
food, its production. its distribution,
its use, its conservation. The more
you know about these things the
more valuable you will be and the
greater will be your service in hui
mainly. If you have not already
done so we urge you to pursue
studies dealing with food, but these
should be reinforced by courses in
chemistry, physiology and econom-
les. 1t will be well, too. if you
have acquired the arts of public
presentation of your knowledge to
the people who so much need it
Fortunately, most of our educa-
tional institutions now offer courses
which give the necessary training
for this work. but to the others an
appeal is being sent to provide
such instructions. 1t is possible
more detailed suggestions and di
rections will be published soon. To
day your country asks you to do all
that you can in the hour of ex'
IRENE peril to the democratic PEG
pie of the world"
