The exten- sive use of it in Italy, under the name of Pallenta, and in North America, evinces its nutritiousness and whole- someness. In the countries cultivated by negro slaves, it is generally pre- ferred by them to rice, which they account the more fugitive and less substantial food. In addition to this, it is known to be producible in larger quantities than other grain; hence the propriety of encouraging the cul- tivation and extending the use of it. http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1798-05097.xml Tue, 26 May 1970 12:00:00 GMT http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1798-05103.xml Philadelphia, May 30, 1794. http://brockdenbrown.cah.ucf.edu/xtf3/view?docId=1798-05103.xml Tue, 26 May 1970 12:00:00 GMT
