Flour Substitutes
Because of the present need to con
serve wheat, certain other food ma
terials can be substituted by the
housekeeper in making bread gener
ally, says today's bulletin of the Na
tional Emergency Food Garden com-
i mission, working in conjunction with
this "newspaper in a nation-wide con
servation campaign,
i The next series of bulletins on food
conservation will deal with flour sub
stitutes and the housewife is urged to
save each day's bulletin so as to have
the complete set for future use.
Every housekeeper is familiar with
the use of corn meat, which can be
used without the addition of any flour
in making bread, gems, griddle cakes,
etc. But she may use corn meal also
in preparing light bread, hot biscuits
and cookies. Other substances which
will lend themselves admirably to the
making of very sort of quid, bread
are rice, sweet potato, peanuts, soy
bean meal, milo, kafir, feterita, dash
een, banana, rye, oats, barley, etc.
The recipes to be published in the
following lessons are a few of those
which may be used and merely sug
gest some of the possible combina
tions of these various food materials
which will yield new. and very palat
able breads. It must be kept in mind
that no other substance has gluten
such as is found in wheat and which
gives to this cereal the ability to pro
ducing light and spongy bread. In
any of the following lessons, sour
milk or buttermilk and soda may be
substituted for sweet milk ana baking
powder. To guard against an excess
of soda, which causes a yellow color
m the bread, use one-half to three
fourths level teaspoonful of soda to
every cup of sour, milk. The soda
should be sifted with the other in
gredients. The mixing should be done as
quickly as possible, especially after
the baking powder is moistened, to
minimize the loss of leavening gas.
Biscuits should be rolled, cut, and
placed on the pans as soon as pos
sible after mixing. If necessary, they
may stand in the pans before baking
with comparative safety, but it is
much better to bake immediately.
Wheat meal is ground whole wheat
or graham flour. This is to be dis
tinguished from white flour or wheat
flour sold at the stores.

Ancient Birth Records
Are Found at City Hall
Omaha birth records of 1874, found
in the city hall archives by City
Clerk O'Connor, were interesting to
the Oldest Inhabitant who called at
the city health office where these
documents are being filed with other
vital statistics.
One of the cards is the birth rec
ord of Joslah B. Redfield, jr, now
president of the K-B Printing com
pany. He was born "South of Tenth
street, just outside of the city
limits." Dr.--0.-S. Wood, attending
physician, is now living in the Ma
sonic home at Flattsmouth. The
date of the birth was July 23, 1874.
The cards show that children were
born to these pioneer residents:
Simon and Bertha Trostler, Constan
tine ind Kate Gallagher, Henry and
Mary Hornberger, Thomas F. an1
Amelia J. Hall, Andrew and Mrs.
Murphy, A. Pollack and wife, James
and Anne Neville, J. E. Market and
wife.
Can Produce Ten Million
Dozen Suits of Underwear
Washington, Oct 22. Plans to
produce and self to the government
without profit approximately 120,000,
000 suits of underwear annually, or
enough to supply each soldier in the
allied armies with four sets of light
and four heavy garments each year,
have been worked out by Louis Stein
feld of New York and probably will
be laid before government officials
for consideration in a day or two.
Mr. Steinfeld has been organizing
into a single corporation ab6ut 40
yarn-spinning and knitting mills, hav
ing a combined annual output of 10,
000,000 dozen suits of knitted under
wear.
The oarent corporation, to be
known as the American Knit Goods
corporation, includes many large mills
in the east and south.

'This membership was largely se
cured in three months. We under
stand there is not a state in the un
ion with a larger membership at the
present time, population considered."
said Mr. Judson. "It is a remarkable
showing and clearly indicates the pa
triotism that is prevalent in this sec
tion." '
A state Red Cross conference will
be held in Omaha October 31 and No

Washington are expected to attend.

An Inspiration front Russia
When Milady Goes Shopping
"If I knew you and you knew me if both of us
could clearly see" we would discover that
fish and oysters are excellent food, cheap,
and their consumption will help win war.
By GERTRUDE BERESFORD.
IF we are lending Russia the sinews
of war, "we are its debtor for the
inspiration for many coats and
turli-ns. A Russian blouse which
boasts of a waistcoat is its latest gift
Made of Russian green duvetyne,
belted like a Cossack's uniform, and
generously trimmed as to collar, cuffs
and border with kolinsky, this suit is
distinctive enough. The double
breasted blouse fastens with buttons
enameled in green and brown. The
waistcoat of pale chamois cloth is
bound with a heavy grosgrain ribbon
striped in orange, green and brown.

"Papa" Wire's Wife
Much has been written and said
about "le Pere Joffre," as le Marechal
is called in France. But very little
has been written about Madame Jof
fre, not because she is tacking in in
terest or undeserving of public ad
miration, but owing entirely to her
extreme modesty and simplicity.
She often deplores the publicity
which has been forced upon her, and
frankly longs for the peaceful anon
ymous days of the past, when no one
cared where or how she and her fam
ily lived, and when she could come
and go as she pleased, without the
ever-lurking reporter and photogra
pher upon their heels.
Madame Joffre delights in giving
pleasure and is always devising some
personal gift which will carry some
thing of her thoughtful affection with
it. Only the other day she went
through the American Red Cross am
bulance and presented to each of the
officers assembled a pipe bearing the
inscription "Souvenir de la Marechale
Joffre." Mr. Richard Norton and Mr.
Arthur Kemp received her, and she
was pleased to praise the work done
by the ambulance.
La Marechale is extremely artistic
and knows to a nicety the value of a
bit of antique porcelain, or the
period of some rare painting. She
has many art treasures, and her fur
niture is proof enough that she loves
the valuable treasures handed down
by generations of art lovers; in fact,
some of her furniture might well
grace a museum.
On the Seine river, just out of
Paris, a houseboat may be seen
dreamily reflected in the quiet river.
Gay flower boxes, awnings and
dainty curtains attract attention, and
there is an air of peaceful comfort
and happiness surrounding this float
ing home. Here it is that la Mare
chal, Madame Joffre and their chil
dren spend the summer, returning to
Don't Be a Shirk, But Get to Work;
Pay Your Bills Cure Your Ills
If you will let yourself reflect how work cures human ills youll see
that you cannot expect the world to pay your bills. You cannot fail to
realize that nature's well known laws will never serve to bring a prize
to .him who slights its cause. You cannot fail to understand how nature
hates a shirk, and scorns the man who'll idly stand while others do the
work. The clothes you wear, the stuff you eat the gasoline you burn,
all form a game that can't be beat; you ve got them alt to earn. The
logic of the thing is sound. Just get this through your head. You cannot
calmly sit around and think that you'll be fed. You need not think that
all things come to those who simply wait. You've got to stir and make
things hum, before it grows too late. You've got to join the working
mob and do your labor well You've got to hustle on the job and make
your hustling tell. The biggest thing you've got to do is getting stuff
in hand to help you see the winter through stuff dried or stortd or
canned. You've got to use what summer brings, for winter-time supply.
The fates help those who help themselves. This truth is always new. So
fully stock your pantry shelves; the fates will then help you.
Complete detailed instructions for preparing vegetables and fruits for
winter needs are given in the Home Canning Manual, the Home Drying
Manual and the Home Storage Manual issued by the National Emergency
Food Garden commission, 210-220 Maryland building, Washington, D. C
A copy of either manual may be had upon request, enclosing 2 cents for

"If I knew you and you knew me
if both of us could clearly see,
and with an inner tight divine the
meaning of your heart and mine,
I'm sure that we would differ less
and clasp our hands in friendli
ness: Our thoughts would pleas
at.tly agree, if I knew you and
you knew me."
And I am sure that we would
differ less on the delivery of fish
if we all understood the situation
as it really is. Let me tell you a
few secrets about the handling
and delivering of fish:
There isn't a coast within a
thousand miles.
The Great Lakes furnish only
certain kinds of fish and they are
over-night away from us.
Oyster beds most of them are
on the eastern and southern coasts.
We caonot get the southern oys
ters in good shape. By shipping
them from the beds on the east
coast in efrigerator express cars,
they reach this section of the coun
try in perfect condition as good
as they are in the east
BUT if fish and oysters are
carelessly handled; if they are taken
from these cars and dumped
around unsanitary places; if they
are taken from cold storage and put
on the delivery wagons, they are
soon unfit for food. The scarcity of
delivery boys and soaring prices
make it impossible to have "so
cials" so the regular wagon is the
only course to pursue.
Fish and oysters are. cheaper,
even though shipped in express re
frigerator cars, than meat and ac
cording to the rules of scientific
eating, much more easily digested.
In fact fish is often called brain
food because it takes less strength
to digest it than meat and one does
not suffer the sluggish feeling
which comes after a heavy meal.
BUT This same excellent food,
which helps to reduce the high cost
of living, is a most dangerous, one
if improperly handled. Ptomaine
poisoning from eating stale fish and
oysters has caused many severe
cases of illness and they . spoil
much more quickly than red meats.
Now that we know how valuable
this food is and with how much
care certain merchants handle it;
that we can, by knowing where to
go, get sea food as fresh as those
people who live on the coast; that
Electric Chair for
Happy Fat People
The inventor of a very comfort'
able looking electric chair on ex
hibition at the Electrical exposition
can hardly be dassed with those who
assert that nobody loves a fat man.
This electric chair differs radically
from the famous one at Sing Sing in
that its purpose is not to execute, but
rather to remove painlessly surplus
flesh. In fact to secured the desired
results, all that stout people have to
t- - t i r .t
ao is to recline leisurciy m tne cnair
for a few minutes every day.
The professor in charge of this
chair states that it accomplishes the
desired results- primarily through the
synchronous contraction of the mus-
calature; and, secondarily, through
the electro-chemical action of the
Faradic current passing through the
tissues. 1 his chair is one of the fea
tures of the Electrical hospital, which
in turn is one of ISO exhibits at the
Electrical exposition.

such splendid fish and oysters can
be obtained, go to these markets

understanding on your knowing
me and my knowing you that we
may differ less.

Cook Book;
For every woman reader
of The Omaha Bee
The food that America saves will go far toward
winning the war and saving civilization.
And the women of America control nine-tenths of
the consumption of its food.
Therefore, there is a solemn responsibility resting
on every American home today.
The woman who plans the meals and buys the
food for the mouths that must be fed each day, when
she makes those selections scientifically and econom
ically, not only serves her country, but saves for her
family.
The War Cook Book for American Women, com
piled from official sources by Frederic J. Haskin, and
issued by the United States Food Administration, is
just from the press and ready for free distribution.
It is a digest of the Hoover doctrine of saving by
proper selection and prevention of waste.
Its thirty pages are packed with new recipes, orig
inal formulas and suggestions showing every woman
how to do her part in the great American campaign
to put the Golden Rule above the Iron Law '
