4 MERICANTZATION in cook
~ cry rightfully should begin
with the uses of corn meal,
our heritage from the Indians. It is
unique as food in that it has played
such an important part in the early
settlement of our country. It was
really corn meal that changed the
nomadic tendencies of the Redman
and melted him to form settlements,
With the cornfeld as a base. And
again, corn was the compromise that
settled some of the controversies be-
tween the colonists and the Indians
instead Of open warfare.
Gradually but steadily this I'M
portant cereal food has been changed
10 suit the ever-changing methods of
commerce and merchandising, and in
some cases so great have been the
notifications that its identity is al
most obscured. But whether it be
granulated corn meal, yellow or
white, fine corn meal -four, toasted
corn fakes. puffed corn or hominy,
Zach has its own peculiar charm
when 1t makes its appearance on the
table
The American corn bread has, ac-
eording to the part Of the country It
halls from, It's own particular style
and name. Johnnycake in Rhode
Island is corn pone or hoe cake In
some parts Of the South; cracking
bread IN Kentucky and soft crust
corn bread in Alabama. IN making
any Of these breads It Is abso-
lutely essential that the corn meal be
perfectly fresh. Although it Is de-
rsrminated In nearly all sections Of
the country, It ts, even SO, difficult to
keep and therefore should only be
bought In small quantities II, how
ever, It gets strong, pour the meal

shredded wheat is most excellent for
occasional use at this age and often
for older children, but may be q

for the cereal and creates a craving
for more sweets. No sugar on the

to eat it is with a spoonful of vanilla
