Women TO Study
Bre admaking

Breadmaking will be undertaken
by the women of Spruce -Westmor-
land home department Wednesday,
when that group has an all-Sei
meeting at the home of Mrs. M E.
Ryan.
Miss Florence Glenn. home lem-
OnStration agent, and the project
leaders, will conduct the demon
stration which will emphasize
breadmaking from the standpoint
of nUtritional values.
Last week project leaders from
every farm home department in the
valley assembled in the high school
home economies department to at
tend demonstration on bread
making by Miss Barbara Sampson,
home demonstration agent-at-
large.
Miss Sampson emphasized the
fact that the statewide program
has no intention of debating what
type of bread should be eaten, but
! that it is given SO that women my
know what they are getting in each
loaf of bread and Just what food
value the different loaves con-
tain.
Some $3.50 loaves were made from
various combinations of ingred-
ients-graham, 100 per cent, whole
wheat, half and half, white flours,
enriched flours, wheat germ, skim
milk, milk powders, evaporated
milk. etc, the food values in each
being listed. After the demon
stration the majority came away
feeling that 100 per cent whole
wheat bread was not only most nu-
tritious, but most delicious.
With gasoline rationing in pros
pect, this project is being empha-
sized since the bread wagons will
not be able to make as many trips
to the farms, and the farm Wo-
men, as many trips to town. With
civilian health a vital part of the
defense program, this breadmak'9g
project is being given statewide
emphasis. with its goal, the carry
ing of the information to ever
farm home in California.
In each home department in I'M
perial county, the project leaders
will conduct demonstrations some
time during the months to come

In most of the important United

Too, Britain will undoubtedly

OF course that doesn't mean the

Let the British discontinue pro-

Donald Nelson's visit to De-

greater import than local news
stories indicated.
In fact, to the writer, the Mel
son-Lyttleton team made two ex-

The first was mentioned briefly
in the news accounts but deserves
some Nmplification.
Nelson was asked whether De.
troit had been placed on a taboo

replied in the negative. A few
minutes later he referred back tC
the question. explaining that Il
should be discussed in more detail
He said that Detroit's auto man

Perhaps no higher compliment

that:

the world and had an aptitude for
that type of work which was
equaled in no other area.

The second angle-and this
transcends the other announce
ment in its worldwide importance
was that Nelson and Lyttletor
