Barnes Urges the Use
OF More Bread Instead
OF High Priced Foods

The efforts of United States
Wheat Director Julius H. Barnes to
get American housewives to use
more bread instead of the higher
priced foods is bearing fruit, &C
cording to the nineteenth weekly
bulletin of the United States Grain
corporation, given out today by
Charles T. Neal, second vice presi-
dent. This shows that an increase
of 100000 barrels has been effect
ed in Americas flour consumption
in 20 days.
This campaign, so different from
the wheat saving campaigns of war
days, is being carried on to decrease
demand for the higher-priced foods,
A fall in the price of lard from IS

Compared to Omaha.
1--WE are particularly pleased to
be coupled with New Orleans in
the Saturday Evening Post story
written recently by Harry Leon
Wilson," continued Mr.. Thomas,
because we have spent $4,000 in ad-
vertising in national mediums and
we understand that New Orleans has
spent 100000.
in fact, we are 50 we'll pleased
with our $4,000 expenditure this
year that we will make it $4,000
next year and hope to increase the
