1t was largely for the purpose of spread
ing and agitating the cooperative idea,
and it included not only stockholders of
the State Cooperative association,
technically known as the Farmers Co
operative Grain and Live Stock associa-
ton, but took in representatives from
many local cooperative farmers eleva-
tor associations which are not members
of the state association.
proposition was submitted to
amend the constitution and bylaws of
the state association, making it more
like the local organization which the
farmers around Solomon have been
maintaining during the past year and
which has been a great success. There
are in the state a considerable number
of local farmers associations which
have refused to become members of the
state association because it acts only as
an agent and does only a commission
business. Representative of these indie
pendent associations stated frankly tina
they could do better outside the state
association than they could inside; that
they could sell their grain to mills in
stead of sending to Kansas City, and
that this not only kept out of the hands
of the grain gamblers and spectators,
but it enabled them to get a price often
times four or five cents bushel in ad-
vance of what they were offered by the
state association.
But notwithstanding these statements
the stockholders of the state associa-
ton refused to change their cOnStitu-
ton and will continue to act only in the
commission business The proposition
was for the state association to buy the
grain from the local associations out
right, bidding for it the same as other
buyers. James Butler. secretary Of the
state association, opposed it.
It's a question" he said, .'of
whether the state association goes to
the Solomon organization, or the Solo
mon organization comes to the state as
ISOLATION
Mr.. Butler prejudiced the delegates
against the proposition also by making
the statement that Secretary Smiley. of
the Grain Dealers association, which
the farmers are organized to oppose,
wanted the state association to buy in
the open market, and the proposition
was defeated by a small majority.
The annual meeting of the Farmers
Cooperative Grain and Live Stock as
ISOLATION will be held in June, and at
that time will be held the election OF
officers. J. A. Bucklin, of Oakley, is
president, and James Butler, of Topeka,
is secretary.

S4,OOO,OOO DEPOT.
Kansas City to Have Something
Better Than st. Louis.

Excellent progress is being made in
the movement of the railroads to build
new Union passenger station in Kan
sas City" said one of the general sup
erintendents of a Kansas City-St.Louis
railroad yesterday to the Kansas City
Star.
THE operating officials of four of the
Union depot lines, together with the
architects of those lines held consul
tation in Kansas City last Friday They
examined plans which have been pre-
pared for a passenger structure more
magnificent even than the Wanted St
Louis Union depot. If the depot is built
as proposed it will call for a total ex-
penditure of about million dollars, or
100000 each for the ten Union depot
lines

posed in the plans prepared, is near the

Rent Which WhitelaW Reid Will
Pay in London.

New York, March SIT now appears
certain, says a London dispatch to the
Herald, that Whitelaw Reid of the
American delegation. at the coronation
ceremonies, will take Brook house in
Park Lane, for his stay in London dur
ing the coronation. 1t is the residence
of Lord Tweedmouth and it is stated
that Mr.. Reid will pay $4,000 for six
weeks. Everybody is surprised to think
Lord TweedmOuth would care to let his
house for such a period. considering his
important position in the Liberal party
and it was anticipated that Lady
Tweedmouth would give several very
important parties during the season.
Brook house is one of the finest places
in Park Lane, with splendid view over
HYDE Park.

What They
Are.
Composition OF the
Famous
GRAPE NUTS
FOOD.

widespread interest has been crea-
ted among good livers, as to the COM
position of Grape-Nuts, the popular
food. 1t has long been known to physi-
clans, chemists and food experts. that
the starchy portion of entire wheat flour
and barley is transformed into true
and very choice sugar by the act of irl-
testinal digestion in the human body.
This sugar is identical with, and is
known as grape sugar, and it is in con-
dition for immediate transformation into
Blood and the necessary structure from
which the delicate nerve centers are
built up.
A food expert of the Postum Cereal
Co.. Ltd, Battle Creek, Mich, followed
a line of experiments until he produced
the food called Grape-Nuts, of which
crane sugar forms the principal part,
and it is produced by following out Ma
lures process, in a mechanical way
THAT is heat moisture and time are the
methods employed and directed by sci
entific facts gained in research.
C5rape-Nuts are probably entitled to
the claim to be the most perfectly
adapted food for human needs now ex-
tanf Certain it is that the users de-
light in the flavor and the perfect ac-
ton of intestinal digestion during The
use of Grape-Nuts is satisfying, and tie
added strength of body confirms the
facts.
