MUSH AND MILK.

What has become of the oldtime bowl of cornmeal mush and milk? It is an American dish, cheap, nourishing and palatable The older generation loved it; and for economical, sentimental and patriotic reasons we should now go back to it and take all America with us. Mush and milk furnishes a balanced ration, yet contains no wheat, no meat, no sugar. It is a whole meal in itself, and while the war lasts it should be used more largely in • this country. Its larger use here will release other and more concentrated foods for our armies and the armies of the allies. We are producing an abundance of food; we will save it for our boys across the water; and food will help, to win the war. The Austrians, Bulgarians, Turks and Germans are beginning to see this, and the kaiser also believes and trembles.
