Our soldiers need wheat, we can use
corn. onts. barley, rye nnd rice. Our
soldiers need but
ter nnd lard, we
can use peanut
oil, peanut butter,
cotton seed pro
ducts, corn, cocoa
nut oil and drip
pings. They need
sugar, we can use
honey, molnsses
and sirups. They need hnm, beef, mut
ton, we may eat chicken, nuts, fish,
perishable meats that cannot be ship
ped like liver, kidneys and sweet
breads, eggs and cottage cheese.
Corn ennnot be shipped ns It does
not carry well as cornbrend and thero
ure no mills abroad for grinding such
grains, the people do not know how to
uso It nnd we cannot urge u new un
tried food upon those already over
burdened with the horrors of war. We
arc asked to do a very little In con
serving one-fourth of our fat, one
fourth of our wheat, one-sixth of our
sugar nnd one-seventh of our meat. If
In every home of the twenty million in
uur country this Is done we will save
tmough to feed the people across the
water. If we can by giving little
better measure, by doing a little more
than is nsked of us, wc will be helping
for some who will not nnd some who
can not.
Barley Yeast Bread. Take one cup
ful of milk, or wnter one tablespoon
ful of sugar, n tablcspoonful of fut, n
teaspoonful of salt, one and a sixth
cupfuls of barley Hour, two and a
third cupfuls of white flour, and a
half n yeast cake, or a quarter of a
cupful of Jiome made yeast. To mnke
his use a cake of dry yeast, a pint of
potato water two mnshed potatoes,
two tablcspoonfuls of sugar nnd u
teaspoonful of snlt, let stand over
night, add two tnblispoonfTils of flour
nnd put uwny In n covered Jnr. It
will keep for two week's In n cold
place.
Fifty-Fifty Rye Yeast Bread. Take
a cupful of milk or wuter, potato wa
ter is good, n tablespoonful of fat,
two of sugar, n toaspoonful of salt,
two and n fourth cupfuls of wheat
now, tho noma of r; , aud u hnlf cup
ful r.f home mnde yeast. Do not add
cJi of the Hour in the nbovo breads
unttl tlm tlni" 'or kneading.
yt i.ut a crumb of any food be
uuhUd. If your family does uot like
ft law A 1
corn meal try to present It In Ruch n
mnnner Hint they will like It "Con
version Is pntrlotlsm In this ense."
Wo do not like war, but wo will hnvo
to bear It, we niuy not like many
kinds of foods, but wc must eat them
to save, that thero may bo no inoro
war.
True hospitality constats In having
what you wero going to havo anyway,
and not changing the cloth unless you
were going to anyway.
CORN, THE AMERICAN FOOD.
As wo wish to snvo every ounce of
white flour possible In our food in
these days of
pressing need, It
Is well for us to
remember that
our foremothers
had little else but
corn for brend In
the early days.
In 1588 Harlot In
his account of
the Vlrclnln colonv writes of mnlzo
as follows: "Tho gralno Is about tho
bigness of our ordinary English penze,
It yeeldo whlto swecte flowro; being
used according to Its kind, u maKetn
a very goodo bread."
As cornmeal or corn flour lncks tho
tcnnclous substnnco (Gluten) present
In whent It Is Imposslblo to make a
eood vonst brend from It alone : but by
using the flour In the sponge, corn-
meal mny be used as substitute rrom
nno-fnurth to n third of the flour used
In knendlng, In this way saving a largo
amount of flour for our country's
need. Bread which has corn flour or
cornmeal added should bo longer baked
to be palatable.
Flftv.Flftv Biscuits. Tako two
cupfuls of white flour, four teaspoon-
fuls of buklnir nowder. two teaspoon-
fuls of salt, three tnblespoonruis or
shortening and two of sugar, liquid
to mix to tho nroner consistency,
about one to one nnd a hnlf cuptuis.
Milk, potato water or other vegetablo
water of little flavor may be used, In
this way much mineral matter is tau-
on Into the body.
Flftv-Flfty Griddle Cakes. Tako
one cupful of sour milk, three-fourths
cunfuls each of flour and corn meal,
n hnlf. tensnoonful of soda, one tea-
spoonful of baking powder, a nail
tensnoonful of salt, a tablcspoonful
nf mnlnqspq nnd one bentcn ess. Get
n few nounds of flank fat, try It out,
saving tho scrnps, mix the fat whllo
hot with lnrd and It will keep It soft
ns butter. Use tho scraps finely chop
ped to stir Into n cornmeal rausn,
wpU seasoned with salt, and a few
(lushes of cavenne. Pour Into n brend
pan to mold. Unmold nnd slice, fry In
the hot flank fat, for a most fitting
breakfast dish
War calls women to national 'service
as well ns men. Tho nation needs well
developed men and women and diet Is i
a groat essential for proper physical
development.
GOOD ECONOMICAL DISHES.
In these days with a desire to havo
a small portion of meat do doublo
duty, the following will
nppenl to the thrifty
housewife.
Beef and Potato Roll.
Take n pound loaf and
put It twice through the
ment chopper, add n ten
spoonful of salt, a few
dashes of pepper, one
one. and a half pint of cold
boiled potatoes finely chopped, form
into a roll about six Inches long and
bake for half an hour, busting it once
or twlco during tho baking. Serve
either with tomato or brown sauce.
It may be rolled In oiled pnper and
hnstcd over the paper while coouing,
Where there Is a small family a
three-nound chicken will serve for sev
oral meals. Cook tho wing tips and
giblets, chopping the giblets when
cooked and adding to the broth, this
making sufllclent gravy to serve with
the fowl for two or three meals. Make
the gravy by using any sweet fat
brown with flour, then ndd some of
the broth with n spoonful or two of
the chopped giblets, cook until smooth,
chnnge the ilnvor, using celery salt
once, onion or pnrslcy, with a dash of
toliasco or Worcestershire and kitchen
bouquet.
A serving of tho second Joints nnd
drumsticks pnrhotlcd and the liquid
ndded to tho grnvy broth then brown
the pieces In n little hot fat will mnke
u line menl with bnked or mnshed po
tntoes,.then the rough pieces, neck nnd
back in a stow with dumplings and
grnvy. mnklng n little ment and much
dumpling nnd grnvy answer for tho
menl. Then there will bo a little of
the brenst left which mny be used In
a few dulnty snndwlches or mixed with
upplo In a snlnd or finely minced nnd
served In it snuce either of the broth
or n whlto sauco on tonst. All the
bones carefully snved mny be crushed
nnd covered with cold wnter and will
make another cup or two of good broth
which mny bo set away and used after
a duy or two, A chicken costing 80
cents mny thus serve n family of two
or threo with thrvo or even four good
meals, und they need nor come la sue
cession so that ono tires of tho flavor,
COWS KEPT FOR PRODUCTION OF CALVES
BEEF CATTLE ON PASTURE IN CORN BELT.
(Prepared by the United States Depart- I
mem or Agriculture.)
Although there nre n Jiumbcr of fnc-
tors thnt govern the profltnblencss of
tho cnlf-growlng enterprise, nu Inves
tigation carried on by tho United
States department of agriculture in
tho corn-belt states during tho last
three years show thnt losses on calves
usually nro duo to excessive mnlnte
nnnco costs of tho breeding cow3.
When a cow Ib kept only for tho pro
duction of cnlvcs, she should bo fed n
ration thnt will cnnblo her to produce
nnd rnlse n good strong cnlf nnd still
keep In good healthy condition. To
feed In excess of tills nmount merely
for tlys snkc of huvlng a flne-nppcnring
cow, ns Is frequently done, Is n waste
of feed. This waste lncrcnsos the
maintenance cost, often to the point of
wiping out profits, for when tho busi
ness Is conducted on ns closo u margin
ns nt present It Is impossible to raise
calves nt u profit unless tho strictest
economy Is practiced In feeding the
cows.
Sufficient Pasture.
Tho information nt hand shows that
where cows nre kept exclusively for
tho production of feeder animals thero
must bo a sufficient area of pasture,
most economically utilized, to support
the animals for at least bIx months of
the year. Not only must they get fully
one-half of their living from cheap
grazing but they must he so hnndled
during tho remnlnder of the yenr that
the greater portion of their winter feed
Is mnde up of thoso unsnlnblo rough
feeds, such as stnlks, stover and straw,
which nre nbundant on corn-belt fnrms.
The dntn obtnlned also show that on
corn-bolt fnrms tho slzo of the herds
nsunlly should be limited to tho num
ber thnt enn bo supported on such
rhenp feeds. In other words, with the
prices prevailing during recent years,
the breeding herds must be mnde to
utilize tho farm by-products nnd con
vert them Into beef nnd manure, while
tho more valuable products arc sold or
nro fed to fattening animals.
Much Feed Wasted.
Every year there arc lnrgo qunnti-
tles of corn stover which nro not util
ized to their fullest extent. Every yenr
also a vnst quantity of straw Is wasted
by letting cnttlo run to tho stnek nnd
trample under foot more straw than
Uiey cat. In some pnrts of tho coun
try lnrgo quantities of straw nro de
stroyed by burning. Much of tho straw
so wasted might bo used to rcplnco
sorao of tho more valuable feeds that
beef cows receive. It Is true that In
mnny pnrts of tho country In times
pnst It has been better farm economy
to allow these products to bo de
stroyed rather than to try to uso them.
However, under present conditions,
not only Is It necessary that cnttlo
should be hnndled in such n mnnner
ns to use as' much of these by-products
ns possible, but also, If possible, tho
farm business should bo arranged so
Hint enough stock Is kept to consumo
fully these cheap roughages.
Use Cheaper Roughage.
These cheaper rough feeds enn bo
utilized more fully than is customary
nnd much less grain and liny need bo
fed to breeding herds. This Is dem
onstrated by the results of tho investi
gation mentioned. In this Investiga
tion approximately 1,000 farms were
visited, and detailed information was
obtained on the cost of maintaining the
breeding herds on these farms ns well
as on the cost of producing tho feeder
cnttlo. In addition to the cost-nccount
(ng figures, a study also wns made of
tho methods used In enring for tho cot
tic. This study is bused on records
from 478 of these fnrms, upon which
tho breeding herds wero kept solely for
the production of. cnlves to bo fed out
as bnby beef, two-ycnr-olds, or three
yenr-olds. On these fnrms the average
cost of n calf nt wennlng time, figuring
all expenses and deducting nil credits,
wns $37. Thero was, however, u very
wide range In tho cost of these calves,
depending somewhat on the locnllty in
which the cnlves were raised and very
largely on the methods followed In
producing them. On some fnrms this
cost wns an low us $25 per cnlf, while
on others It exceeded ?fiO.
On tho fnrms visited there wns a
very wide range both In the quantity
nnd tho kind of rations fed. Some
farmers were feeding n ration that was
hardly ndequate, while others were
giving their cows more feed thun they
could possibly eat. Somo wero carry'
Ing their cows through tho winter In
fairly good condition ut n very low
cost, whllo others wero using large
qunntitlcs of expensive liny and grain,
with a resultnnt heavy winter feed bill
Many of the latter could have greutly
reduced tho cost of their rations by u
Judicious substitution of cheaper feeds
for some of the more expensive onen.
Gralnless Ration.
The uso of it gralnless ration, Is, of
course, not always posslblo or prac
tlcnble. If this typo of ration la to Ik
economical, there luust bo an abun
dance of cheap hay to combine with
the rough feeds ; or, If the bulk of the
1
ration consists of cheap roughnge,
which, unless there Is somo winter pas
ture, Is largely composed of carbohy
drates, thero should bo n sufllclent
amount of leguminous hay, such as al
falfa or clover, to supply tho protein
needs of tho animal. In localities wharo
thero Is n shortage of hay, but whero
largo quantities of cheap roughnge,
such ns corn stover, straw or damaged
hay, Is available, this cheap roughage
often can bo mndo to servo ns tho
greater pnrt of tho ration by supple
menting It with n small amount of
somo concentrate high In protein, such
ns cottonseed menl. Tho fnrmcrs in
thnt portion of tho corn belt lying west
of tho Missouri river, where alfalfa is
grown abundantly, nenrly nlwnys enn
plnn an ndequato ration without corn.
Although It Is not necessary to plnn
tho rations for breeding cows ns care
fully as for dairy nnlmnls, or for fnt-
toning steers, nevertheless tho dntn
obtained show the need of more enro
on tho pnrt of a largo number of theso
fnrmcrs In the plunnlng of their win
ter rations. It is therefore strongly
recommended thnt tho fnrmcrs who
rniso their own feeder cnttlo tnko moro
pnins to find out tho needs of their ani
mals and feed them accordingly. For
tho benefit of tho fnrmcrs who aro not
familiar with methods of working out
rations, it Is suggested thnt they write
to either their own stnto experiment
station or the United States depart
ment of agriculture asking for help In
manning theso rations. In this letter
they should stnto tho kinds and quali
ties of different feeds nvnllnblo for
uso nnd tho number of stock to bo car
ried through the winter. They nlso
should give n brief outline of how they
would like to handle their stock.
HIGH PRICED FEED
NEEDED FOR STOCK
Satisfactory Returns Cannot Be
Expected From Fattening
Inferior Animals.
Along with tho high prices fnnncru
nro now renlizlng for their llvo stock
comes tho high-priced feed nccessnry
to mnko the etock rendy for mnrket.
Tho greater cost of maintenance of
breeding nnlmnls nnd tho fattening of
market animals must bo followed by a
satisfactory return on tho market,
else tho breeder and feeder must ceaso
to produco and feed. Returns that
completely overbalance tho cost of pro
duction' In fattening nro not to bo had
form Inferior nnlmnls. No mnnufnc
turer would nttempt to mnko an In-
forlor, low-grudo product from high'
priced raw mnterluls In this time of
expensive lnbor and working equip
ment. Itcgurdless of this fact, tho
fanner who, In truth, Is one of the
world's greatest manufacturers, some'
times overlooks this particular point
nnd feeds scrub animals on high-priced
feed. This kind of practice Is grndu
ally eliminating a certain typo of llvu
stock fnrmer, thus giving tho better
class of breeders and feeders an op
portunity for greater returns from the
butter class of llvo stock they produce.
In spite of tho outstanding ndvnn
tages to bo observed in tho production
of llvo stock of well established classci
and types, there aro on tho market to
day moro "misfits" and Inferior grades
than nnlmnls of superior mnrket quail
ficntlons, nnd It Is impossible to esti
mate tho loss to tho producer due to
this condition. The parent stock used
on farms is responsible for this state
of affairs.
The need of the markets can be mot
only by n general Improvement within
tho herds nnd flocks oil general live
stock furms.
This improvement may bo brought
about, according to S. T, Simpson of
tho University of Missouri college of
agriculture, by the uso of tho pure
bred slro nnd tho careful culling of
breeding herds und flocks. Ample
proof of the efficiency of theso moth
ods may bo had by closo observation
of practices followed by the most pro
gressive und financially successful live
stock men.
LAYING HEN IS QUITE BUSY
Deep Litter of Clean Straw, With
Grain Scattered In It Will Furnish
Needed Exercise.
The laying hen is u very busy creu
ture. If she has all tho other require'
menta for egg production sho will fall
short If sho Is not supplied with plenty
of exercise.
A good, deep litter of clean straw,
with tho corn nnd wheat scattered In
thlH, will furnish them exerclso when
they nro confined. Oyster shells must
also bo furnished the bens In winter
time.
AGRICULTURE THE
MAINSTAY Or THE
NATION
Tho United States and Canada
Have a Great Responsibility.
This Is tho dny when tho farmer
has his Innings. Tho time wns when
ho wns dubbed the "fnrmer," tho
mossback," nnd In n tono thnt could
novcr havo been cnlled derisive, but
still thero wnB In It the Inflection thnt
ho wns occupying an Inferior position.
Tho stiff upper Hp thnt tho fnrmer car
ried, warded off any approach that his
occupation was n degrading one. Ills
hour arrived, though, nnd for somo
years past he has been looked up to ns
occupying a high position.
Agriculture, by a natural trend of
economic conditions, stands out today
in strong rollef, as the leader In tho
world's pursuits. Never In tho nation's
history havo the eyes of tho world
been so universally focused on tho
farm. Tho farmer Is tho man of Im
portance ; tho manufacturer of Its most
nccessnry product, nnd ho now enjoys
tho dual satisfaction of reaping a max
imum of profit, as n result of his opera
tions, while ho nlso becomes n strong
fnctor In molding tho world's destinies.
Mnnufacturers, business men, pro
fessional men and bankers realize tho
Importance of agriculture, and gladly
ncknowlcdgo It ns the twin sister to
commerce. In commercial, financial
and political crisis, tho tiller of tho
soli tnkes tho most Important plncc.
Maximum prices, tho highest In many
decades, show tho world's recognition
of tho necessary requirement for moro
fnrm stuffs. Tho tlmo was coming
when tills would have been brought
about automatically, but war tlmo
conditions urged It forward, whllo tho
farmer was ablo to secure Inrid nt ren
sonnble prices. Throughout several of
tho Western states this condition ex
ists, as nlso In Western Cnnndn.
Never hns such n condition been
known In commercial life. It Is truly
an opportunity of n lifetime. Largo
and smnll mnnufncturlng concerns nnd
prnctlcnlly every other lino of busi
ness hnvo been limited In their profits
to tho point of nlmost heroic sacrifice,
whllo It Is possible today to renp dlvl
uemls in farming uncqunlcd In nny
other line.
Thirty, nnd nB high ns fifty bushels
of whent per ncro nt $2.20 per bushel
nnd nil other fnrm produco on a slml
lar basis, grown nnd produced on land
available at from $15 to $40 per acre
represents n return of profit desplto
higher cost of lnbor nnd mnchlnery,
thnt, In mnny enscs runs even higher
thnn 100 of nn nnnunl return on tho
amount Invested. Such is the present
dny condition In Western Cnnnda. How
long it will last, no ono can foretell,
Prlces for farm produco will likely re
main high for many years. Certainly,
tho low prices of pnst years will not
como again In tills generation. The
lands referred to, nro low In prico nt
present, but they will certainly In
crenso to their nnturally productive
value as soon as tho demnnd for them
necessitates this increase, and this dny
Is not fnr dlstnnt. This demnnd Is
growing dnlly; tho fnrmer now on the
