Englishmen properly call it maize, or Indian corn. Where they have lived side by-side, in some places 20,000 years, man and corn have become mutually dependent. Without human care corn, unlike other cereals, would probaby vanish from the earth. Dim clues of this early association are foundm in representations of maie stalks depicted on the tombs of Perus pre-Incan races. Columbus found corn in Cuba in 1492, and it was then perhaps general in the Western Hemisphere.

The world's best culinary-improvisors since then have contributed little to the Indian-created dishes. The Indians ate corn bread, roasting ears, popped com, Revved corn, corn pudding, grits and hominy, hulled corn and johnny- cake. Corn flakes eluded them. Corn has played a leading role in sustaining the pioneers North America. Faced with famine at Jamestown.
