newspaper writer and proofreader,
also a graduate in medicine as well,
though not practicing, makes COM
bination that would produce a skep-
tic on the subject if anything would.
DAY after day l read the proof on
the Grape-Nuts Food advertisements
with the feelings that they were all
buncombe.' Ali this time l was suf-
feripg from the improper food 1 was
eating at the restaurant. One day
saw package of Grape-Nuts at the
restaurant and tried it with good,
rich cream. The dish took my fancy
at once. After few lunches at mid,
night L noted an Improvement in my
feelings. and was able to work with
less fatigue.
IL have used Grape-Nuts as n regu-

greatly. The old dyspepsia and bad
feelings that 1 thought were necessary

HUNTING DOWN WILD MUSTANGS.
A Great Pest to the Ranchmen in the
Far Southwest.

Sport rivaling in excitement that of
a buffalo hunt is scheduled to take
place in Washington and Iron counties
and across the line into northern
Arizona on Thursday, when the peo-
pie of the Canaan district expect to
set forth and exterminate as many
desert horse, are so thick in the dis
The hunt is booked to start at Pipe
Springs. Where it will end no one
pretends to know. The mustangs, Or
desert horses, as SO thick in the dis
trict lying between Hurricane Ridge
and Kanab Wash and over the old
Canaan range to Mt Trunbill that
scores. The range is being eaten UP,
gentle horses are being run off, and
many valuable animals are being shot
by mistake by careless hportsmen
drawing a bead On supposed desert
horses. So the populace has decided
that the mustang must go.
Two years ago similar decision
was reached. During the progress Of
the hunt then 80 were shot and left on
the plains, and 1,50C were run down
and dispatched, with the exception Of
80 considered worth keeping.
81 have often wondered why local
lovers of sport never come down for
such drive" said l. c. Macfarlane of
ST. George 1T is almost impossible
to get near the willy animals. A
crowd will start the drive. Relays of
horses and men are in waiting, and
one relay after another takes up the
chase until the wild horses are ex-
hausted AS fast as the boys get
within reach they pick off all the good
shots that present. The desert horses
are well-nigh tirs less. but finally they
give out and are corraled. Those of
any value are saved, and the rest are
shot. The hides being quite a
revenue when you consider that a
thousand or more are killed off in a
bunch. The mustangs are an in
sufferable nuisance, and we simply
