What Do the Children Drink?

Don't give them tea or coffee. Have
you tried the new food drink called
GRATN-O? 1t is delicious and nourish-

more Grain-O you give the children the
more health you distribute through their
systems. Grain-O is made of pure grains,
and when properly prepared tastes like

Because of the almost complete absence
Of anything like a pitched battle against
the Filipino insurgents there is a ten
dency to lose track of the total casualties
in the American army at Manila. Ac-
cording to the official records thus far re-
ceiyed at Washington the losses since the
outbreak of the Aguinaldo rebellion ON
Feb. have been 157 men and officers
killed and $50 wounded. This is consid-
erably over one-half the total number Of
casualties in the Spanish war. Appar=
emily there is still a good deal Of fighting
ahead for Gen. Otis and his troops, and
it is not impossible that by the time Agui
naldo is captured the fatalities of the Fill
Pine war will be nearly or quite equal to
those of the Spanish war. But the ter
rible mortality from disease was the worst
feature of the Cuban campaign. and this
is happily absent in the Philippines.

The April crop report issued by the De-
partment of Agriculture gives discourag-
ing outlook for winter wheat. Its condi-
ton is reported as 77-that is, % below
standard and points below the condition
reported at this time last year, which was
"a. The crop last year was about the av-
erage for the last ten years. 80 that the
crop this year will be IL per cent below
the average The cause of the poor con-
dition is not attributed to the heavy SHOWS
nor to the intense cold of the winter, but
the frequent sudden and severe changes
in the temperature. The condition of live
stock throughout the country, with the
exception of hogs, shows that it suffered
even more than the wheat from the terri
BILE winter.
