FACE the FACTS L ET us face the facte. The war gituation is crttical. - 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 Saving*—They must have wheat. It is toe best food to fight on. It is the easiest to fihip. We . alone can spare it to them. By saving just a utUe— 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. We 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 toe hour of our need. It has given us corn in such bounty as was never known before. Tons of corn. Trainloads of corn. Five hundred million bushels over and above our regular needs. All we have to do is to learn to appreciate it Was ever patriotic duty made so easy? And so clear? America’s Own Food—Corn! It is the tree American food. The Indians, hardiest of raeta, lived on it Our forefathers adopted the diet and conquered a continent For a great section of onr country it has blong een the staff of life. 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 & 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 yon know about corn? About how good it is? About the many delicious ways of cooking it? And what you mi88 , by not knowing more about H? Here are a few of its uses: There are at least fifty ways to use corn meal to make rood dishes for dinner, supper, lunch or breakfast. Here are some suggestions:

DESSERTS

Corn-meal molasses cake. Apple corn bread.

Dumplings. Gingerbread. Fruit gems.

HOT BREADS Boston brown bread.

Hoecake.

Muffins. v . Biscuits. ^ Griddle cakes.
