A new pamphlet issued by the Food Administration, entitled "war Econ- ' omy in Food,” gives suggestions and recipes for substitutions in the plan- , ■ ning of meals, with general informa- , tion, such as the president’s call to , . the women of the nation, the pledge ( , card, an outline of the food problem. | the home card and name card supplement No. 1, plans for meals and ser- , vice, recipes for cooking conservation dishes, and the like. Copies of this pamphlet may be had on request from ' the Section of Publications. United 1 States Food Administration, Washing- ' ton, D. C. ’ Considerable trouble was experienc • ' ed in Youngstown. Ohio, with delay * I in clearing incoming freight and ex- ■ press shipments, due to tardy delivery * of postalcard notices sent, consignees by railroad and express companies. That was based, in turn, upon congestion in the post office. The Youngstown Chamber of Commerce Traffic Bureau advised, upon investigation, that consignees be notified by drop letter, instead of postal card, to secure quicker postal delivery. It is suggested by The Traffic World that freight and express congestion in other places might be, reduced in the ; same way. An exhibit of war-time candies is being made at the Patriotic Food Show in the Chicago Coliseum by Bunte Brothers, candy manufacturers of that city. The percentage of sugar in these candies has been greatly reduced by the use of corn syrup and corn sugar so amplify cane and beet . sugar, and also by the free use of cocoa and chocolate in making soft candies, and by filliri' hard candies with fruit paste, nut paste, marmalade. . jams and other conservation ingredients. The factory test of excellence in making these candies is to get as I small a percentage of sugar as possible without impairing true confectionery quality, and also to make sugar shells as thin as jwssible. During January the Food Administration will make a concerted drive on corn, enlisting its 11.000,000 pledge members and the press of the country to secure a wider consumption of corn bread. The Western Newspaper Union of Chicago has contributed a series of corn pages in its service, covering several thousand newspapers, material for which is being prepared in cooperation with the Food Administration. Several leaflets containing recipes have been prepared by the Food Administration and in Farmers’ Bulletin No. 565, obtainable free from the Department of Agriculture. Washington, D. C„ can be found recipes for corn breads, corn desserts and corn entrees such as croquettes, fish balls, dumplings, Mexican tamales and Italian polehta. State organizations und- • er the Federal State Food Administra- ! tors will be active in this campaign and furnish literature and suggestions to those who desire to cooperate.
