UNCLE SAM ASKS EVERY
LOYAL AMERICAN TO IILL?
Tl. Food A dniiii .-I raT '!! ev
ery Ir.yai American to help iit hi'.
war by i-'aintaining ri;::l:y j- -minimum

Have two v'h?atle.s days (I.Tuu'iiV

one when h-s meal in e ery day.
On wheat less days and hi wheat -2:s;

v.heat, and do not use wh'-at :!u;;r j-.
any form except the small amour
that may be needed for thickening
soups or gravies or for a birder :n
cornbread and other cereal briad .
As to bread, if you bake it a: ho:
use other cereals than wheat, sr. 1 if
you buy it, buy only war bread. Our
object is that we should buy ai d
consume or.e-tliird !ess wheat pro
ducts than we did last year.
Have one meatless day tTue- lay;
in evcrv week and one meat b meal
in every day. Have two pork'e
davs (Tuesday and Saturday) in ev
ery week. Meatless means witho.;
any cattle, hog or theeo produce
On other days use mutton and hn:'
in preference to beef or pork. Fork-
less means without pork, bacon, ham
lard or pork products, fresh or pre
served. Use fish, poultry and eiig?.
As a nation we eat and waste near
ly twice as much meat as we :i"ed.
Make every day a fat saving day
(butter, lard, lard substitutes, etc.?
Fry less; bake, broil, 'noil or stew
food instead. Save meat dripping? ;
use them and vegetable oils for cock
ing instead of butter. Butter bar
food values vital to children, there
fore, give it to them. Use it only
on the table. Waste no soap as u is
made from fat. Be careful of al!
fats. We use and waste two and a
half times as much fat as we i: ed.
Make every day a sugar savin -
day. Use less sugar-, less sweetened
drinks and candy containing sugrr
should be ued sparingly in war
time. As a nation wo have usee
twice as ranch sugar as we need.
Use fruits, vegetables and pota
toes abundantly. These foods arc
healthful and plentiful and at the
same time partly take the place o"
other foods which we must save.
Raise all you can for home use.
Use milk wisely. Use all of the
milk, waste no part of it. The child
ren, must have whole milk. Use sour
and skim milk in cooking and for
cottage cheese.

FOOD PLATFORM FOR
WAR-TIME PRODUCERS
To st imui.ii e production of all
food that can )e utilized without urg
ing indiscriminate production of
perishables or articles not purchas
able on the general market until
there is solution in sight of some of
the present problems of labor, mar
ket and transportation, is the aim of
the food production department of
th Woman's d inmit'.ee of the Ne
braska. Council of Defense.
With the endorsement of G. W.
Wattles, state food administrator, C.
W. Fugsley. head of the extension
department of the University of Ne
braska, and George Coupland, chair
man of the Nebraska Council of
Defense, the following platform is
issued by the Woman's Committee,
of which Mrs. P M. Deweese, of
Dawson, is chairman:
All families produce to their full
ability such food as is purchasable
on the general market. This includes
general crops and stock, poultrj,
some of the dairy products, honey
and some garden products, such as
dried beans, etc.
All families supply as nearly as
possible their own tables and try to
provide themselves with a supply of
vegetables for a year all they can
u.-f . fresh canned, dried or stored.
Under present conditions of labor,
market and transportation, all fami
lies produce what they feel assured
will find a market, either through
the regular channels or by arrange
ment with all hotels, boarding
houses and families who are not so
situated that they can supply them
selves.
"Get-together" meetings should be
held in every locality to urge in-
cal labor and market conditions and
further definite arrangements be
tween producers and consumers.
What to Do with Wheat Substitutes
The government order that house
wives must buy substitute cereals
equal in amount pound for pound
. ;
IS If T3 I I
with wheat flour has caused some
thing of a panic among the bome
, makers. To ease the patriotic but
r-crplcT-ed housewives, the Woman's
Committee of the Nebraska Council
j of Defense has issued a chart show
j inm w hat substitutes may be bought
I with wheat and in what proportions
I these may be used in the usual bak
j i..gs of yeast bread, quick breads and
ip- stries. The directions were com
; piled by Miss Julia Vance, conser
vation chairman, and have been test
ed by university experts.
The substitutes which the house
wife may buy with wheat flour are
cornmeal. corn starch, corn flour,
hominy, feterita flour meals, hominy
grits, corn grits, barley flour, oat
meal, sweet potato flour, rolled oats,
buckwheat flour, potato flour, soy
bean flour, rice flour and rice.
A suggested list of cereals to buy
with 24 pounds of white flour is:
S pounds oatmeal, 2 pounds barley
flour, 2 pounds barley pearl, 6 pounds
cornmeal, 4 ponds hominy, 2 pounds
corn flour. Rye flour is not a sub
stitute for wheat but can be pur
chased separately without purchas
ing pound for pound measure of oth
er cereals.
Proportions to use in wheat bread
are: i wheat to rye, or no wheat
to all rye; 2-3 wheat to 1-3 oatmeal
or rolled oats, barlej flour, cotton
seed flour, cornmeal (uncooked) or
buckwheat ; wheat to U potatoes
or potato flour, sweet potatoes, rice,
feterita. sauash or pumpkin: 4-5

2-3 cornmeal; i wheat to oat
meal or rolled oats; 2-3 wheat to

who is loyal to American principles
and institutions is eligible to mem

RETURNING TO THE WEST
From Tuesil.-i y's Iaily.
Last evening Adam Thomas and
wife, with their son. Earl, who have
been visiting at the home of their
old time friends. R. L. Propst and
wife departed today for their home
in the west. Between 1SS1 and 1SS5
both families lived at Endicott, Ne
braska, where Mr. Propst was en
gaged in business and farming. In
'SS he moved from there and settled
west of this city. At one time later,
just twenty-eight years ago. -while
returning from Kansas, Mr. Propst
saw Mr. Thamas, who six years af
terwards departed for the west, lo
cating at Montrose, Colorado, where
he engaged in the cattle business.
He had a large amount of land, part
of which is mountain side and the
balance rich, fertile valleys. The lo
cation and nature of the land is such
as to make it eminently fitted for
the business of cattle raising. Dur
ing the summer season and early fall
the cattle are pastured on the moun
tain sides while in the winters they
occupy the valleys, which are warm
and afford protection from the bliz
zards that rage, as well as supplying
the animals with cured grasses for
sustenance.
Mr. Thomas and family have been
spending some time in visiting with
their former friends, of whom Mr.
Propst and family are numbered and
now" return somewhat reluctantly to
resume their work on the ranch.
