Prologue

The Planting THROUGH my work with The National Food Administration during the Great War, I became convinced that as a Nation we were drifting away from simple, wholesome living. We did not know how to use Corn-and the Great Products made from it.

Foods must be plain-skillfully combined into three meals a day. Every food has a definite place -only a few are needed to balance a meal-to put into it all the elements the body needs for energetic work and play. Each ingredient should be the best of its kind.

Only as we plant seeds of healthful foods, shall we reap health of mind and body.
