Desire For Food
Is Important
Appetite Is Necessary In Order To
Digest What We Eat.

We notice that some OF the most
eminent physicians OF this country and
Europe who have made a study OF the
process Of digestion unite In the opin-
70 proper digestion. Some even go SO
far as to say that there must be a
good sharp appetite for the food eaten
in order that 1t be properly digested
and assimilated. DR.. ]. p. Pawlow's s
essay on The Work Of the Digestive
prize, sets forth very clearly the value
Of appetite.
There is no other such safe sure
means for creating a healthy appetite
as Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer taken be-
fore or with your meals, and II is an
almost almost absolute guarantee OF perfect
value cannot be overestimated
Or. Joseph Feisler, OF the North
western University OF Chicago, in COM
Inenting upon this said: II fully be-
lieye that the moderate use OF good
peer at meal times acts as a tonic and
is therefore useful"
DR.. Feisler stands at the head of his
profession and his words must carry
health.
Pabst Blue Ribbon is such a beer as
DR.. Feisler recommends. 1t is a prod
uct Of eight-day malt, choicest hops
contains all the valuable food elements
OF the barley in predigested form. 1t
gives Pabst Beer Its rich nutrition and
the fine mellow flavor which distin-
guishes 1t from other beer. This, to-
gether with sixty years Of scientific
so far IN the lead. No food that comes
from the cleanest kitchen can be
cleaner, purer and more wholesome
than this celebrated beer.

REVIEW OF WHEAT MARKET.
Canada's Crop Only Normal-AbOut
16,OOO.OOO Bushels.

A Chicago dispatch reviews the
wheat situation as follows
1t is now up to the American farm
er to say whether he will force his
wheat Ipon the foreign buyer at low
prices, or whether he will permit the
buyer to make the bids. The situa-
| ticn is critical for the buyer, and it
would seem folly, in the present con-
| dition of prosperity in this country, to
force wheat upon him at prices lower
than India or other cheap producers
will sell for, particularly when wheat
is lower relatively than any other food
staple in sight.
Unless there is a great gain in the
volume of business that the railroads
are handling, the coming winter may
see something phenomenal in the way
of light supplies of wheat at American
ports. There is less than so days of
lake navigation with its cheap freights
remaining this season. 1t is up to the
foreigner to begin supplying his needs
on even larger scale than he has re-
Gently been operating.
The American seller knows the
transportation situation in this coun-
try too well to stand in the gap for
the foreigners benefit, and will make
no rash contracts on winter delivery.
1t is as certain as anything in life
can be that all of the American surplus
above reasonable reserve and the
usual food and seed requirements will
be needed by the importing countries
IN the present crop year. The larger
the proportion of the reserves from the
present large crop carried on the farm,
the better it will he for wheat prices.
Once out of the farmers hands,
wheat is an immediate weight upon
the market, and the cost of carrying it
is at once increased. Already the sup
plies at market centers are ample and
additions will make them burdensome.
II is up to the farmer to use his pros
perity wisely IL 1t Is to continue in
so far as the wheat price is concerned.
Land boomers claims of a tremen-
dous crop in the Canadian northwest
have been effectually punctured The
movement and the price show that
Canada will not be able to export any
more than last year, when the total
was but $4,000 900 bushels.
