Board Order became effective re- ,qulring all public bakeries, stud ,priv- ate households also, to use 10% sub- stitute flour. On the 151.11 of July this percentage was increaeed to 20th•s in all of Canals net of l'us't Arthur TPne question arises in erten house- keeper's mind, shoat are subsl:itutee for Wheat flour, where can they be had, and how are they to be used, Substitutes AS defined by the new law, include bran, shorts, corn flour, corn meal, edible cornstarch, hominy, corn grits, barley flour, rolled oats, oat meal, rice, rice flour, buckwheat flour, potato flour, tapioca flour, rye flour and rye meal. Potatoes are also classed as a substitute for wheat flour, in proportion of four pounds of potatoes to one of the other substitutes mentioned, on account of the higher et - percentage of water in potatoes. A largo number of millers are ready with• these different flours and as soon as the public demand calls for them. they will be distributed throughout ' the trade, and are now procurable by dealers. There has been some talk about the price of substitutes being high in, proportion to flour but it is expected that this condition will remedy itself as the new flours get into general cir- culation throughout the trade. In the case of corn meal, the price has ad- vanced for corn in Chicago on ac- count of market conditions. Canadian millers were depending on American corn and advanced the price of corn ileal accordingly on all new contracts. 1t is not expected that this market condition will eontinue, however. as there has been plenty of cern in the United States since last harvest,• al- though difficulty of distribution arose through lack of sufficient transporta- tion facilities and similar causes. With the 1918 crop in prospect, it is ;yl- pected that there will be a still more plentiful supply for the coming sea- son. It may be necessary to experiment with these substitute flours a few times before succeeding in producing loaf and. opportunity a satisfactory p'p should be taken to study the effect of these substitutes and the different me- thods of mixing, handling, fermenting- and ermentingand "proofing" of the Boughs. As most of the wheat flour substitutes accelerate the fermentation, it will be better not to work the dough as long as usual. About four hones for fer- mentation will be sufficient in a room of moderate temperature, divided as follows, -2 hours 45 minutes for the first punch, 46 minutes for the second pmleb. 30 minutes is allowed be- fore the dough is finally taken out, kneaded and cut into loaves. Af+er � X11 being set in the pan, 45 minutes is en- ough for "proofing", when it is ready for the oven. — When corn meal, oat meal or other meal is used the moisture retaining qualities of the loaf may- be improved -by scalding these ingredients et a temperature of 150 degrees Fahren- heit and allowing two hours for cool- ing, Most of the wheat flour sub- stitutes retain the moisture in tine loaf longer than will the wheat flour and yield an increased amount of bread on account of their higher ab- sorption of water, thus reducing the amount of yeast and shortening neces- sary. The following are a few of the recipes recommended to bakers. They will be useful also In private households when substitutes are to be mixed with wheat flour for bread:— Corn Flour Bread. -21,e pounds standard flour, 1-3 pound corn flour, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 2 table, - spoon salt, les oz, yeast, 1 tablespod fat, 3 cups of water. This should produce 4% pounds of bread. Barley Flour Bread, -5 2-3 cups wheat flour, 11-3 cups barleytflour, 2 cups milk and waiter, 1 cake of com- pressed yeast, 2 tablespoons sugar, 2 tablespoons fat, 2 teaspoonful salt. This should make two loaves. Rice Yeast Bread, ---8 cups standard flour, 7 cups boiled rice, 14a cup milk ane water, 1,4 cup warm water (for yeast), Ye cape compressed yeast, 4 teaspoons sugar, 4 teaspoons fat, len teaspoons salt. When ready for the pans will look like a stiff drop bat- eer. The quantities mentioned make two loaves, Inexpensive Garden Tools.
