English Eeg-Laylng Contest.

Consul Daniels reports from Shelf
field a novel egg-laying competition at
the Lady Warwick Ladies' Agricul-
tural College. The conclusions reached
are that breed does not govern so
much as the laying strain or families
of a breed highly developed as egg pro-
ducers. The pen of four Buff Orping-
tons led from October 10th to Novem-
ber 10th by producing forty-nine eggs,
and again on November 10th to Decem-
ber 18th with 120 eggs. One thing

Now we come to frisky lot, the
Labor Union" editors. You know
down in Texas a weed called
Loco" is sometimes eaten by a
steer and produces arrangement
of the brain that makes the steer
"batty" or crazy. Many of these
editors are "Locoed" from hate of
anyone who will not instantly obey
the demands" of C labor union,
and it is the universal habit of such
writers to go straightinto system
of personal vilification, manufac-
turing any sort of falsehood
through which to vent their spleen.
We assert that the common citizen
has a right to live and breathe air
without asking permission of the
labor trust and this has brought
down on us the hate of these edi-
tors. When they go far enough
with their libels, is it harsh for us
to get judgment against them and
have our lawyers watch for a
chance to attach money due them
from others? (For they are usual
ly irresponsible.)

coed" editor.

This burst of true American girl indig-
nation was caused by the teacher saying
that Grape-Nuts the popular pre-digest-
ed food, was made of stale bread shipped
in and sweetened.
The teacher colored up and changed
the subject.

Now let all these choice specimens
take notice:
We will deposit one thousand or
fifty thousand dollars to be covered by
a like amount from them, or any one of
them, and if there was ever one ounce
of old bread or any other ingredient
different than our selected wheat and
barley with little salt and yeast used
in the making of Grape-Nuts, we will
lose the money.
Our pure food factories are open at all
times to visitors, and thousands pass
through each month, inspecting every
department and every process. Our fac
tories are so clean that one could, with
good relish, eat a meal from the floors.
The work people, both men and wom-
en-, are of the highest grade in the state
of Michigan, and according to the state
labor reports, are the highest paid in
the state for similar work.
Let us tell you exactly what you will
see when you inspect the manufacture OF
Grape-Nuts. You will find tremendous
elevators containing the choicest wheat
and barley possible to buy. These
grains are carried through long convey
ers to grinding mills, and there convert
ed into -four Then the machines make
selection of the proper quantities of this
-four in the proper proportion and these
parts are blended into a general flour
which passes over to the big dough mix
ing machines, there water, salt and lit
tie yeast are added and the dough knead-
ed the proper length of time.
Remember that previous to the barley
having been ground it was passed
through about one hundred hours of
soaking in water, then placed on warm
floors and slightly sprouted, developing
the diastase in the barley, which changes
the starch in the grain into form of
sugar.
Now after we have passed it into
dough and 1t has been kneaded long
enough, it is moulded by machinery into
loaves about is inches long and or 6
inches in diameter. 1t is put into this
shape for convenience in second cooking.
These great loaves are sliced by ma
chinery and the slices placed on wire
trays, these trays, in turn, placed on great
| steel trucks, and rolled into the second
aryovens, each perhaps rs or so feet long.
| There the food is subjected to a long low
heat and the starch which has not been
heretofore transformed is turned into a
form of sugar generally known as Post
Sugar. 1t can be seen glistening on the
granules of Grape-Nuts if held toward
| the light, and this sugar is not poured
| over or put on the food as these preyari-
Gators ignorantly assert. On the con-
| trary the sugar eXudes from the interior
| of each little granule during the process
| of manufacture, and reminds one of the
little white particles of sugar that come
out on the end of hickory log after
1t has been sawed off and allowed to
stand for length of time.
This Post Sugar is the most digestible
food known for human use. 1t is so per-
fectin its adaptability that mothers with
very young infants will pour a little
warm milk over two or three spoonfuls
OF Grape-Nuts, thus washing the sugar off
| from the granules and carrying it with

When Mr.. Fort finished reading, p G.

history of the 'loss or theft of the

remarks evoking much applause.
John McCartin moved that the Lewis

be added to the official returns and the
result declared. This motion produced a
warm discussion. E. A. Veitch of Besse-
