NEW RECIPES FOR MAKING WAR BREAD SATISFACTORY YEAST BREAD CAN BE MADE WITHOUT USING WHEAT FLOUR RESULTS OF EXPERIMENTS MADE BY FOOD ADMINISTRATION GIVEN TO PUBLIC Housekeepers as well as professional bakers have been working on the problem of how to make satisfactory yeast breads using other cereals than wheat. Not all have solved the problem satisfactorily. The Office of Home Economics of the United States Department of Agriculture has successfully worked out ways of combining the various substitutes in making a 50 per cent substitution bread, a 75 per cent substitution bread, and an entirely wheatless bread. The Food Administration requires that all bread sold must contain 20 per cent wheat substitutes. But, if we can make a satisfactory bread using a higher percentage of wheat substitutes so much the better. Here is the recipe for a 50-50 bread that is very good. 50-50 Bread 1¼ cups liquid. ½ cup mashed potatoes. 1¼ cups wheat flour. ¼ cake yeast. 1 tablespoon corn syrup. 2 teaspoons salt.

Make a sponge of all the ingredients except the rice and barley flour. The potatoes should be freshly mashed with no fat or milk added. The water in which they cooked can be used for the liquid. Let the sponge stand in a warm place until very light. If dry yeast is used, set the sponge the night before. Add the rice and barley flour when the sponge is light. Knead and let rise until doubled in bulk. Knead again, form into leaves, place in a loaf pan, and allow to rise until bulk's again doubled. Brush over top of loaf with melted fat before putting it to rise. Bake for one hour and a quarter in a hot oven. Other satisfactory 50-50 breads make use of rolled oats (1 3-8 cups), combined with rice flour 1 1-8 cups), or corn flour (1½ cups), or tapioca flour (1 1-8 cups), in place of the rice and barley flour in the recipe. Loaves Are Less Elastic None of the loaves using a high percentage of substitutes equal the all-wheat loaf in lightness, wheat having a special substance known as gluten, which gives it elastic properties that make it especially valuable for bread-making. None of the other flours, except rye, contain this substance in any appreciable amount so that when we substitute for the wheat flour large quantities of flour that do not contain gluten, we cannot expect the same elasticity. The leaves are more compact and less porous. In the 75 per cent and 100 per cent substitute loaves an egg is used as binding material and as an additional leavener.

FULLERTON MAY HAVE MUNICIPAL GAS PLANT People Resent Increase in Rates by Southern Counties Company Fullerton may soon be having a gas plant of its own, and this assertion is not all gas or hot air either, says the Tribune. At the meeting of the board of city trustees Tuesday evening City Attorney Allen called the board's attention to the hearing of the Southern California Edison Company before the board of state railroad commissioners in Los Angeles on August 19, when the electric company will ask for a raise of rates, and Allen asked if it is the desire of the trustees to have the city represented at the hearing. It was then that the attorney explained how the gas rates had been raised and that Fullerton, with natural gas within its city limits must pay for the main, and its deterioration, for conveying this gas to Ontario, Pomona, Monrovia and other foothill towns. This started a general information discussion of the gas situation, and when Attorney Allen informed the board that the city could not lay parallel pipe lines with those of the Southern Counties Gas Company, but could condemn and purchase the distributing system of the gas company every member of the board spoke right out in meeting in favor of taking steps to have a municipal gas plant. The suggestion was made that as soon as the citizens of Fullerton get their gas bills in September, which will be the first under the increased rate, that First Public Demonstration Henry F.

The suggestion was made that as soon as the citizens of Fullerton get their gas bills in September, which will be the first under the increased rate, that every elector will be prepared to vote for anything that will promise relief. The board was in earnest in its move for a gas plant and early action may be looked for. MOSES AND THE DRAFT A Los Angeles newspaper man who has been delving into the archives of the past in order to find precedent for our present military system, has discovered something in the earliest pages of authentic history. Here is the way he comments on what he read in the Pentateuch: Moses, the son of the Levite, was the Gen. Enoch G. Crowder of his time. From the hour that he was deposited as a child in an ark of bulrushes and hidden in the flags by the river's brink where he was found by the daughter of Pharaoh (it will be recalled that is the story she told) until his death at the age of 120 years, when he was buried in the valley in the land of Moab over against Beth-Peor, and no man knoweth his sepulcher unto this day—he was the fighter who led the Israelites in all their wanderings, and the Holy Book tells us that he enforced the draft laws among his chosen people without regard to race, color or previous condition of servitude. As Crowder is backed in his interpretation of the draft laws in our time by President Wilson, so Moses had Jehovah to sustain him in his establishment of armies gathered to put to flight the enemies of God's chosen people. In that day there was no such thing as an excuse from military duty on account of flat feet, or the fact that the soldier had to depend on his old mother for support, or because his wife had to support him, or that he was needed to cut the Johnson grass, assassinate the boll weevil or fumigate the citrus trees—but in the dawn of the Christian era there were excuses that served to keep a man out of the ranks that will compare very favorably with Egypt. The commandments had just been handed down for the Children of Israel in Mount Sinai. And they were not delivered by airplane, either, but by word of mouth. Then were the men of war numbered, and the draft age fixed for the first time in the history of the world—from 20 years old and upward. Moses was named as mustering officer for the assembling of those who were able to go forth to war in Israel, and Aaron acted as a sort of chief of staff. There is no notice of the existence of any exemption boards, and such a thing as a "pull" is not mentioned in the sacred script. The word was carried to Moses in the wilderness, and when a sort of mass meeting was being held to protest against something in the government of Israel, or a claim that the manna ought to be accompanied with the proper relishes, Moses was told to assemble the sons of Reuben, Elizur, Simeon, Shelumiel, Judah, Nahshon, Issachar, Nethanel, Zebulun, Ellab, Joseph, Ephraim, Ellishama, Mnasseh, Gamaliel, Benjamin, Abidan, Dan, Ahlezer, Asher, Pagiel, Gad, Eliasapah, Napthall and Ahira—quite a congregation of good men and true, whose sons were to be enrolled for the defense of the Lord's chosen people. The army thus collected by the first draft law numbered 603,550 men, quite a respectable array. And they gathered in various places before marching against the enemy. They possibly had a number of Camp Kearnys at Horeb, by way of Mount Seir, that Moses appointed a number of assistants to help him on the job and, seeing that a number of his soldiers importuned him for relief from military duty, gave out a list of exemptions that would be allowed. The subordinates were of the usual variety, no doubt, cutting an admirable figure at a dance or reception, but they are reported as "wise men and known." In our day the fact that they were known would possibly militate against their assumption of gold braid and other martial insignia. But Moses made his selection, and there is nothing in the story confirming the suspicion that they were sons of wealthy flock masters beyond the Jordan, who had voted for Moses at the last election and contributed liberally to his campaign fund. Things are sometimes done that way. But the exemptions from military service allowed a number of the dependents to escape, and those who suffered from cold feet were allowed to step two paces to the rear. One of the exemptions is referred to in the following language: "What man is there that hath built a new house, and hath not dedicated it? Let him go and return to his house, lest he die in the battle, and another man dedicate it." No such rule obtains in this day. And what man is there that hath planted a vineyard and hath not used the fruit thereof? Let him go and return unto his house, lest he die in battle and another man use the fruit..." In that day there was no such thing as an excuse from military duty on account of flat feet, or the fact that the soldier had to depend on his old mother for support, or because his wife had to support him, or that he was needed to cut the Johnson grass, assassinate the boll weevil or fumigate the citrus trees—but in the dawn of the Christian era there were excuses that served to keep a man out of the ranks that will compare very favorably with the pleas that now prevent the members of the exemption boards from getting their rest o' nights. Moses played no favorites; politics was adjourned in his time, and a man had to have something besides an ability to put Ananias in the also-ran class before he was allowed to limit his military activity to the ranks of the reserves of the swivel chair patriots. Moses was no mollycoddle; he believed in fighting; and it made no difference to him whether the Israelite was in class A or class X, he had to march with the Children of Israel and carry a spear at least. In that day the Israelitish khaki men did not tote Enfield rifles or Lewis rapid-firing guns, but their enemies were willing to make an affidavit properly attested that they were not what the Kaiser called the Yankees overseas, "a contemptible little army." They were the real goods and of the proper width, and the Bible is full of the wonderful story of how they put their enemies to flight and advanced on the various sectors without a barrage fire or poisoned gas, going "over the pop" as a cat would climb the comb of a roof. And they had no Y. M. C. A. to furnish coffee and sinkers as they rested between charges. It was the day after the big wind in Joseph, Epiramal, Elishmael, Gamallel, Benjamin, Abidan, Dan, Ahlezer, Asher, Pagiel, Gad, Elliasapah, Napthall and Ahira—quite a congregation of good men and true, whose sons were to be enrolled for the defense of the Lord's chosen people. The army thus collected by the first draft law numbered 603,550 men, quite a respectable array. And they gathered in various places before marching against the enemy. They possibly had a number of Camp Kearnys at that, where it was necessary to take the Israelitish "rookies" and educate them in the arts of war. But there was no objection to the enforcement of the selective draft, and so far as the records go there were no antis to be pounced upon by the war squad. Everybody was for the administration, and the old flag minus the appropriation—just as it is in this day. Some of the Levites who were not allowed to drill, but who had been consigned to do the heavy lifting about the tabernacle, tried to start a rough house; but after the Israelities had pitched their tents they pitched into the Levites, and there were no more indignation meetings in that part of the country during the war. About that time a sort of espionage bill was passed by the Egyptian Legislature, and in that measure the duties of the Levites were plainly set forth. Even then enemies of the country were handled without gloves, and while they were not interned as in our day, they were compelled to work in the tents, which to the average Levite was a disgraceful thing to do, as they counted on their relationship to Moses to give them a soft job in the commissary department. But it was when the Children of Israel had journeyed eleven days from step two paces to the rear. One of the exemptions is referred to in the following language: "What man is there that hath built a new house, and hath not dedicated it? Let him go and return to his house, lest he die in battle, and another man dedicate it." No such rule obtains in this day. "And what man is there that hath planted a vineyard and hath not taken her? Let him go and return unto his house, lest he die in battle, and another man use the fruit thereof." Another argument against prohibition, with Moses, the lawgiver of Israel, standing sponsor for the grape crop of Egypt. "And what man is there that hath betrothed a wife and hath not taken her? Let him go and return unto his house, lest he die in battle, and another man take her." Here we have the first authentic information about the "war brides" or the busy little folk who sometimes marry the soldiers to get their allowance and life insurance. Moses was of the opinion that they should be looked out for, and the young husband given a chance to "take her" and possibly, as in the case of the new house," "dedicate" her. Moses certainly made a bid for the bride-and-groom vote in that decision, indicating that he earned the reputation of being a wise man. The Amalgamated Order of Slackers, those who have conscientious scruples against the war; those who belong to some cult that opposes fighting for the rights of humanity and democracy throughout the world, who, if a Hum or Bolshevik compel them to go one mile they are welling to go twain, the mollycoddles, etc., are also cared for in the list of Moses' exemptions from military duty: He said: Public Demonstration of Gary Ford's LABOR ACTOR THE FORDSON Joining Ascot Park, Los Angeles and 17 (Friday and Saturday) Watch it operate in different soils, and learn production problem of our country, as it has of ECONOMICAL SOLVES THE LABOR PROBLEM Demonstration Field: Take Santa Ana car, transfer to Watt's mile west.

Is there that hath and hath not used get him go and rerest he die in battain use the fruit "What man is there who is fearful and faint-hearted? Let him go and return unto his house, lest his brethren's heart melt as his heart." We think Moses dropped a stitch right there by allowing the anti-Egyptians with an ingrowing antipathy to war to go in peace. We are doing things better these days. This brand of coward is either interned or allowed to enlist and take a chance. Behind a barbed wire fence is a good enough place for that sort of human vermin. But after the elimination indicated by the orders that the captains of the hosts gave the Children of Israel through the orders of Moses, those who remained, backed by the horses, the chariots and the spearmen, fought their way through the wilderness and to the heights of the Promised Land. Moses was the first leader of men who boasted of his lowly origin, thus setting the example for the latter-day patriots who lay the foundation of their candidacy for the Presidency upon the fact that they were born in a cabin and look like Lincoln. He forced the first draft of which we have any knowledge, and recognized the fact that certain individuals should be exempt from military service. The rules he laid down are more liberal than those prevailing now; but he led the way and constituted the first exemption board, in which he was the whole works. Verily, there is no new thing under the sun, as once remarked the son of David, King of Jerusalem. Read your Ecclesiastes. EXHAUSTIVE REPORT ON THE SANTA ANA RIVER Flood Control Committee Goes Into Detail on Question Control and conservation of flood waters of the Santa Ana river is the subject of an exhaustive report made to the Riverside Board of Supervisors by the engineers appointed some time ago by the Tri-counties. Reforestation committee. A copy of this report will probably be filed soon in Orange county. The report was complied by Engineers John H. Quinton, Frank H. Olmstead, A. L. Sonderregger and W. K. Barnard, and contains a very comprehensive geographic description of Riverside, San Bernardino and Orange counties, their crop production, water power possibilities, extent of damage done by flood waters, population, etc. The report also goes into an elaborate discussion of flood control methods. Reforestation, retarding of water by check dams, spreading of water in gravels and other control plans are taken up. Construction of reservoirs is also dealt with in the report, and the building of loose rock dams is outlined. Numerous photographs showing the conservation work already accomplished and the effort of floods accompany the report. The purchasing agent was ordered to secure prices on an auto truck and trailer equipped with gravel beds.
