Show F ; In cartoon, in editorial, in proclamation, in K appeals without number the farmer is being L ' apostrophized as tho savior of tho country. His Hj J increased acreage is to feed us and our allies, to t ' strengthen the fighting hand of all who ha?e rHt raised the swotd against the Hun, and to win K tho final victory in the war, yet, without the ' "' planting of another acreT it is possible to in- crease the stores of flour by 27 per cent through H the simple expedient of milling the whole of the lH wheat instead of using1 selected portions of tho ' keniel to produce the fine white flour which the' H aesthetic taste of this generation requires. H Whole wheat is more nourishing and healthy than belted wheat, it furnishes more calories, it H . is cheaper. Bread made from it may not be as H I pretty as the other, but it will produce more B punch. Today we are utilizing only about 73 HH , per cent of the food content of our wheat and HHw , wc nre clamoring for the farmers to plant more HHD 1 wheat. Suppose our flouring establishments be- !, gin to uso the whole of the wheat and increase HW' ' ' tho output of flour by more than a third. . j v ..raw HOB m 3 HMCk. Hi -1 J wUml mm1 Pl-k |
