SIMPLE LIKE THE
FOURTH DIMENSION

Almost anybody except the farmer
can settle the most important food
problems off hand
Any city editor can prove that milk
prices are outrageous, and that bacon
should come from the fabled golden
calf instead of mere hog: consid-
ering the price 1t is selling for.
But it is really not so simple as 1t
looks
One wouldn't imagine that milk.
cheese, butter bacon, lard, ham. fresh
pork. sausage, condensed milk, veal
and ice cream all must advance mater
ia1ly when the nation goes to eating
whole wheat bread.
But the family patent flour, that
used seventy per cent of the wheat
and left thirty per cent as bran and
shorts, gave the dairyman. the cattle
feeders, the hog raisers concentrated
cheap winter feed that was the main
stay of these industries.
