Food sion this fall we feel safe in stating that a marked advance in the retail price of many staple articles of food may bo looked for The shortage in many lines of canned foods particularly canned

would not instantly champion the right and interest of j America against any country who wants immunity for for- aggression or who would have power of this nation held captive ito any foreign

the demand of the table to the purse will become more difficult unless cheaper foods of equal nutritive value are substituted for the more pensive We believe a study of the food values of our staple foods will aid the housewife in conserving the family funds Most certainly If the food values of the cereals were better under- stood economy would be practiced by serving them more freely they are our most economical foods CORN CHEAPEST FOOD Based on its food value corn in the form of meal or hominy is the cheapest foodstuff obtainable The wholesomeness of properly prepared corn dishes has been proven to be unquestionable they are very readily digested When cooked in the homo breakfast dishes such as iny corn cakes etc cost but as much as the breakfast foods The increased consumption of Iowa's banner crop corn is therefore earnestly recommended to those who would practice economy in the lection of foods It contains about twice as much fat as any other except oats and about 72 per cent ot starch COMPARATIVE COSTS What the same nutritive value as contained in one pound of corn meal costing 3 cents would cost in other foods at the present prices Is shown as Milk 19.2 cents cheese
