cotton plantations have been purchased by Northern men and will be leased to colored tenants. The writer is confident such investments will be far more re- munerative than even double the amounts invested in Northern farms.
 The undeveloped cotton and corn lands of the South are also now in demand at advanced prices. Contracts are being made for the clearing of these lands and the placing of these farms in such con- dition as will make them attractive as well as profitable.
 Indeed, there is a general feeling -ev- anywhere that Southern farm lands, in sympathy with the present industrial and commercial activities of the South and the general prosperity of the country must necessarily advance. What we want in the South Is more farms and better farming. more attention paid to farm at- tractiveness, more white houses and more red barns. All these things are steadily increasing, and in time Missis- sippi will compare favorably with Illi- nois, Tennessee with Ohio, and Louisiana with Iowa in the amount of their pro- ducts and value of lands"

 When it was learned from the navy department that the Alabama could not be sent to Mobile bay this autumn as was hoped when the contract was award ed, the chairman of the commission in- structed the manufacturers to take thelr time in making the service.

COLONY LIFE.
Effect of Climate Overcome by Proper
 Food.

The necessity of pleasant, nutritive and proper food is highly appreciated in the Philippines. particularly by Americans unused to climate and native custom in cooking.
 One of our soldier boys writes: Tn this land of bad food and disordered stom- achs, nearly fatal attack of ralaria left my digestion for many months in such a state that food of any kind dis tressed me terribly. I suffered from the effect of drugs, but dared not eat. It was simply misery to live. The so-called remedies only seemed to aggravate my sufferlngs.
 Some friend suggested Grape-Nuts Food, and 1 gave it d trial. To my sur prise and pleasure, it did all and more than was claimed for 1t. l am now, after using the food for IS months, in good health; my digestive apparatus in per feet order, and I have long lost all feel ing of pain or discomfort after eating. In fact, I live again. l would not be without Grape-Nuts for the world. It is not only the excellent effect of your food that renders it valuable. it is also delic- ious ta the taste, possessing flavor of its own, and can be prepared in many ways to suit many palates."
