The story of great discoveries or IN
ventions is always Of interest
An active brain worker who found
himself hampered by lack Of bodily
strength and vigor could not carry out,
the plans and enterprises he knew
how to conduct was led to study vari-I
GUS foods and their effects upon the'
human system. In other words, before
he could carry out his plans he had to
find a food that would carry him along,
and renew his physical and mental
strength.
lie knew that food that was a
brain and nerve build (rather than n
mere fat maker) was universally need
ed He knew that meat with the aver
age man does not accomplish the de-
sired results. He knew that the soft
gray substance in brain and nerve
centers Is made from Albumen and
Phosphate Of Potash obtained from
food. Then he started TO solve the
problem.
Careful and extensive experiments
evolved GrapeNuts, the now famous
food. Grape-Nuts contain the brain
and nerve building food elements in
condition for easy digestion. The re-
suit of eating Grape-Nuts daily is cas-
lily seen in a marked sturdiness and
activity OF the brain and nervous sys-
TEN, making it pleasure for one to
carry on the daily duties without IA
tigue or exhaustion. The food is in
no sense stimulant, but is simply
| food which renews and replaces the
daily waste of brain and nerves.
Its flavor Is charming, and being
fully and thoroughly cooked at the
factory 1t Is served instantly with
cream.

Value of Alfalfa,

1t has been demonstrated that alfal
ia can be grown in nearly all Of the
States and when farmers, and dairy
men especially, learn of its great feed
ing value it will be found on every
farm. once established 1t may be cut
several times year and for many
years. 1t is rich in protein and when
fed with corn fodder makes nearly a
balanced ration, furnishing the proper
ton Of protein needed by stock during
the winter Dairymen have long rec
ognized the necessity of feeding grains
or other fodder containing protein, buA
groan under the expense when the pro-
tein feeds must be bought. If alfalfa
will furnish the bulk of the expensive
protein, as it undoubtedly will, a
chance to save considera bic in the cost
of feeding Is offered by growing al
falfa.
