At the Arguments on the Packages

At the Arguments on the Packages.
The husband of an Ohio woman
brought home some packages of
Grape-Nuts one evening and there
was much discussion, but let her tell
the story.
Two years ago 1 was thin and
sickly and suffered so from indiges-
ton, was very nervous, and could not
sleep at night, / was not able physi-
cally or mentally to perform my du-
ties and was constantly under the care
of our physician. / had tried plain
living and all the different remedies
recommended by friends. but got no
better.
zone day my husband brought
home two yellow boxes and said. The
grocer wants us to try this food and
report how we like it, he thinks il will
help you I read all IL said on the
boxes about Grape-Nuts and I re-
member how | laughed at it. for I
thought il foolish to think food could
help me. But the next meal we all
ate some with cream. We liked and
enjoyed the deliciously crisp and new
flavor so we kept on using Grape
Nuts, not because we thought il would
cure me but because we liked II.
at that time we had no idea what
the result would be but now am

Agricultural Branch.
Wheeling, w. Va, Sept. THE visit
of Hon. Henry G. Davis the Democrat
ic vice presidential nominee, to the
West Virginia State Fair to-day was
the occasion of the largest Wednes-
day attendance in the history of the
fair.
Mr. Davis made a ten-minutes adj
dress on Agriculture In the course
of his talk. Senator Davis referred to
agriculture as mans natural occupa-
ton and the most important and useful
TO mankind. The agriculturalist has
always been found in the advance
guard of the march of civilization
Nearly all who worked and fought for
our independence and liberty were till
ers of the soil: nearly all of our early
presidents had been farmers; the ma
jority of our successful men of to-day
have come from the farms: farmers
as class are a liberty loving people.
Our government spends annually for
the War Department, 1921 ,0O0. 900 and
for agriculture $4,000, 000-over twenty
times as much as for agriculture. and
the farmers pay a larger share of tax
es than any other occupation.
When | was a member of the United
states Senate, I made a speech calling
attention to the neglect of the agri-
cultural interest by the national gov
eminent, and upon my motion a bill
passed the Senate making the agricul-
tural bureau a department"

TO ERECT BIG
DlSTILLING PLANT
At VaIdosta for Pittman Turpentine
DistiIIing Process.

Al NaAuOSta Tor Hittman Turpentine
DistiIIing Process.
Valdosta, Ca, Sept. THE Southern
Naval Stores and Distilling Company
which was organized here some time
ago for the purpose of distilling tur-
pentine from wood by the steam pro-
cess, is preparing to erect a large plant
here, and it may also erect plants at
other places. The company has been
making experiments with the Pittman
system of distillation for several
months and is thoroughly satisfied
with the result. A charter has been
secured by the company and a location
has already been bought
The plant here will be the first of a
number of plants of that kind, with an
almost new industry and a new source
or revenue for this section. The Pitt
man system is entirely a steam prog
ress, being based upon the natural
way in which rosin is extracted from
the growing pine. 1t is entirely differ
ent from what is known as the de-
structive process.

COULDN'T RAISE TOBACCO.
UNDER THE TENTS.

Hartford, Conn, Sept. THE ap-
pointment of a receiver for the United
States sumatra Tobacco Company is
an indication that the raising of Su-
matra tobacco under tents is not a fl
nancial success in the Connecticut val
ley. When the departure from the old
way of growing tobacco was made in
1892, Connecticut farmers and investors
invested heavily. 1t is now believed
these people will lose hundreds of thou
sands of dollars.

not consider herself i'll enough to go

sight and is almost always due to pei
