A mixtuve of early seeded winter barley with wheat or rye is worth considering, the bar* ley furnishing the bulk of the pas* turage in the fall, and the other grains next spring.

The family will get those food values if it's used in pani cakes, biscuits, butter cakes, ginger* bread or cottage cheese. To make the cottage cheese, let the milk thicken at room temperature; then place it in a clean cheesecloth bag and drain over night. Add salt (and pepper if desired) to the curds left in the cheesecloth and chill before serving.

Before the war Italy was the third largest wheat-growing nation in Europe with a crop more than a third the total for the United States. In addition, up to 35 million bushels of wheat was imported from Argentina, Australia, the United States and Russia. About a third of the imports went into the manufacture of macaroni and other food products for export.
