This Is Good Proof
of our claims for
Malt Breakfast Food
FROM A FOOD EXPERT. J
ADVERTISEMENTS

Howard X. James of San Franciscc.
secretary California Retail Grocers' and
Merchants Association, writes as fol-
lows:
SAN FRANCISCO. Cal. Dec. 20. 1900.
The Matted Cereals Co..
Conference.-The truest thing in the adj
vertisements of Malt Breakfast Food
which you have published is that 'the
firm starts the goods. and quality does
the the rest"
Little children who tire Of everything in
the cereal line will take up this food and
cling to it with no desire for a change
much longer than they will any other
food.
1t is a fact that my own youngster, who
has passed by everything 1 have been
able to find in the market after a few
DAYS, has put the seal of his approval on
Malt Breakfast Food to the extent OF
insisting upon having 1t three times per
day, and this condition has existed now
for over six weeks, during which time L
question If day has gone by without his
having it for breakfast, lunch and sEu-
per.
For the old folks believe that this ia
the most satisfactory thing on the mar
ket to-day for weak or tired stomachs
and for that jaded feeling that OCCASION
ally is ours at breakfast time Very truly
yours. HOWARD K. JAMES

COMMERCE AND INDUSTRY.

VTT ASHINGTON forecasts of the Presidents
NM message announce that he will recommend
w the establishment of Department of Com
merce and Industry with Cabinet officer its head
The report not surprising for the subject has been
long under discussion. In fact the Republican Ma
tonal Convention at Philadelphia put into the party
platform the declaration: In the interest of our
panding commerce we recommend that Congress
ate a Department of Commerce and Industries, in
charge of Secretary, with seat in the Cabinet"
The Presidents recommendation therefore would be
in line with the general policy of his party and would
be OF receiving strong support in both houses.
The proposed new department would not lack for
work Our industries are growing and our commerce
expanding at an extraordinary rate At the present
time our commercial dealings with foreign nations are
largely promoted by Consuls, who are under the
control of the State Department 1t is believed that
nearly the whole of the consular work could be trans
ferred to the Department of Commerce, though of
course the Consuls themselves would have to remain
officers and agents of the State Department because
they are often called upon to perform diplomatic
duties 1t has been suggested that the Consuls might
remain officers Of the State Department but all of
their commercial reports be turned over for editing
and publication by the Department of Commerce
while any information that the Commerce Department
wished from abroad could be obtained by request
through the State Department
Whatever may be the division of work between the
new department and the present ones which are now
handling commercial affairs it is certain there would
have to be an improvement in the consular service
For understanding of the commercial relations of
different countries and of the best of promot-
ing American trade, It will be necessary that the con-
suar service be composed of of commercial train
ing and of experience The establishment of the De
partment of Commerce will probably lead to that re-
form and should it do so its beneficial effect upon the
country will be noted at once
1t is not to be overlooked that the proposed new
department is 10 have supervision of industries as well
as commerce 1t may be that the industries will in
cude mining as well manufacturing and should it
be SO the mining instead of getting department
to themselves they have long desired would have
to be content with bureau in the Department of
Commerce and Industries. Even that would be bet
ter than the present system of governmental super
vision of mines and mining but it would not be any,
thing like what the miners desire nor what the mag
nitude and Importance of the industry demands It is
clear however that if the miners hope to obtain their
Cabinet department they will have to set about the
work OF getting support for it at once The task is
not going to be an easy one but it will probably be
harder still in the future should mining be made a
subordinate bureau in the new department

The Howard association has pub
nsbed an interesting leafet, entitled:
Back to the Land-Denmark's Ex-
ample" In that country. says Lon
don Truth. there ia an exodus OF the
population of the towns back TO the
land. Partly by state aid, and partly
by private enterprise. 2,o0o square
miles OF waste land have been re-
claimed. and five-eighths OF the ma
tional territory IL possessed by small
freeholders and peasants. Above a
hundred peoples high schools have
been established, where peasantry and
working classes OF ages from IS to
rs get board and education for los.
per week. The Danish farmers have
formed cooperative societies for the
collection, sale and export Of their
produce. Danish university and col
lege students have instituted through
out the rural districts free lectures,
evening lessons. and committees for
promoting popular amusements. In
almost every village a public hall
has been erected for recreation and
social gatherings. In villages where
the high school has obtained inAu-
snce neither drinking, gambling, nor
gross breaches of morals are TO be
met with; yet the villagers are fond
Of games, dancing, sports and other
recreations.
And what Ii the result? Denmark
has become the second country in the
world In regard to average wealth
per head, although there are few
very rich men. She annually supplies
the British market with more than
100000 hundredweight OF butter and
the same amount of bacon, about
100000 90 eggs. and scores Of thou
sands of pigs, cattle and horses.
Surely we might take example by
this. This produce might equally well
be brought into existence In Eng
land. But IL never will be, so long

layers are divorced from all property
