MAKING CORN BREAD
WITH USE OF MILK
Two Ways of Mixing Out
lined by Federal Experts.

of Agriculture.)
Good corn bread may be made with
either sweet or sour milk. The United
States Department of Agriculture has
found that in the sour-milk breads
the method of mixing influences the
texture. The first method described
in this recipe, though longer than the
second, yields bread of better texture.
Sour-Milk Corn Bread.

meal salt
milk teaspoonful SODA
2 tablespoonfuls tables poonful

2 ablespoonfuls
sugar. white or
brown
There are two ways of mixing this
bread, which includes milk and eggs.
BY the first method the meal, milk,
salt, butter and sugar are cooked In a
double boiler for ten minutes. When
the mixture is cool the eggs are
added, well beaten, and the soda dis
solved in the water.
BY the other method all the dry in
gradients, including the soda, are
mixed together, and then the sour
milk, the well-beaten eggs and the but
ter are added. If the second method
is followed the cold water is not need
ed. The bread should be baked in
a shallow iron or granite pan for 80
minutes.
Buttermilk may be substituted for
the sour milk, in which case the butter
should be increased slightly; or sour
cream may be used and the butter
omitted This serves six persons.

In this case as in the recipe for
sour milk corn bread, the cornmeal
can be cooked for a short time with
the milk If a softer bread Is desired.

Improving In
Stock Epidemic
BY United Press Leased Wire

LOS ANGELES, May 5.-Witil
the situation giving rise to further
encouragement, motive of a modifi-
cation in regulations controlling the
foot and mouth disease epidemic in
Southern California was bein G
awaited by local state and federal
authorities today.
The revised orders, when they are
received, will remove all national
forest lands in this county from a
close quarantine to modified quar-
antine status, it is anticipated, while
inter-county communication will be
made much easier.
This will permit free movement of
stock within the modified area, and
shipment of animals in from dis
sefree sections. Livestock and
livestock products, however, cannot
be moved out of the modified area
without special permission.
Fruits, veget ables and other soil
products will be free to be moved
without restriction, it is said.
The notifications, agreed to by
counties, have met the approval of
DIR. U. G. Houck, federal quarantine
director, and will probably be in
effect by the last of the week, it
is anticipated.
Two small outbreaks of the dis
ease, in previously infected terrific
ry, were reported to local head
quarters over weekend.

that the verdict was contrary to

Citizens Abroad
Must Pay Income
Taxes Says Court
by United Press Leased Wire

WASHINGTON, May ;. -- The
United States supreme court today
held that the income tax applies to
the income of II citizen of the Unit
ed States who lives abroad, even
though the property from which the
income is derived also is situated
abroad.
George w. Cook, an American eiti
zen, residing at Mexico City,
brought suit to recover taxes paid
under protest, but lower courts de-
cided the income tax had been prop
erly levied. He appealed to the
supreme court.
Cook held that since his property
was all in Mexico it was beyond the
sovereignty of the United States and
was not taxable by the United
States.
