T ET us face the facts. The war situation is critical.
L Unless the Allies fight as they never yet have
fought, defeat threatens. Hungry men cannot fight
at their best; nor hungry nations. France, England,
and Italy are going hungry unless we feed them.
Wheat Savings—They must have wheat. It is the
best food to fight on. It is the easiest to ship. We
alone can spare it to them. By saving just a little
less than a quarter of what we ate last year—we can
support those who are fighting our battles. And We
can do it without stinting ourselves. W e have only
to substitute another food just as good.
The Corn of Plenty—Corn is that food. There’s a
surplus of it. Providence has been generous in the
hour of our need. It has given us corn in such bounty
as was never known before. Tons of corn. 1 rain-
loads of corn. Five hundred million bushels over and
above our regular needs. All we have to do is to
learn to appreciate it. W as ever patriotic duty made
so easy? And so clear?
America’* Own Food—Com! It is the true American
food. The Indians, hardiest of races, lived on it.
Our forefathers adopted the diet anil conquered a
continent. For a great section of our country It
has blong een the staff of lite. How well the South
fought on it, history tells. Now it can help America
win a world war.
Learn Something—Corn! It isn’t one food. It’s a
dozen. It’s a cereal. It’s a vegetable. It s a bread.
It’s a dessert. It’s nutritious; more food value in it,
dollar for dollar, than meat or eggs or most other
vegetables. It’s good to eat; how good you don't
know until you’ve had corn-bread properly cooked.
Best of all, it’s plentiful and it’s patriotic.
Corn’s Infinite Variety—How much do you know about
corn? About how good it is? About the many
delicious ways of cooking it? And what you miss
by not knowing more about it.’ Here are a few
of its uses:
There are at least fifty ways to use corn meal to
make good dishes for dinner, supper, lunch or break-’
fast. Here are some suggestions:
