aside $2,250,000 for the Shoshone
River, Wyoming. project and $3,330.000
for the Pathfinder project on North
Platte River. to be partially expended
for the benefit of Nebraska Thus
about 15 per cent. of the entire ~

only about per cent. Of the fund.

River project at an estimated cost Of
about four million dollars, requiring
upwards of per cent. Of the entire

opportunities for water storage in Ari-

lying far north. has a splendid water
supply and likewise rich land. Actual

Government on the Yellowstone,

Yellowstone and Milk River projects
amount to over three million dollars,
or nearly nine per cent. of the fund.

Many people have found out the truth about old
fashioned coffee.
They have overcome disease caused by it.
The plan was easy and sure.
Quit Coffee and use Postum.
Proof with ones self is stronger than any theory.
The Postum army grows by hundreds OF thousands
yearly.
The old-fashioned Coffee Magnates now derid-
ing Postum through the papers.
Because their pocketbooks are hurt, they would
drive the people back to the old coffee slavery.
One coffee prevancator says: at (Postum) has
lately been exposed and found to contain excess
of very ordinary coffee"
Another that 'fit (Postum) is made from small
amount of parchcd peas, beans, wheat, dried sweet
potatoes. and paste of wheat middlngs."

parts OF the wheat berry treated by different mechan
ical methods and one part blended with small part
Of pure New Orleans moasses. So he knows Postum
contains not one thing in the world but Wheat and
New Orleans molasses. 1t took more than year of
experimenting to perfect the processes and learn how
to develop the dastase and properly treat the other
elements in the wheat to produce the cofeeke flavor
that makes suspicious people wonder" But there
never has been one grain of old fashioned drug
coffee in Postum and never will be.
Another thing, we have file in our general Offices
the original OF every testimonial letter we have ever
published. We submit that our attitude regarding
coffee is now and always has been absolutely fair If
one wants stnulant and can digest coffee and it
does not set up any sort OF physical ailen drink il:

Or il it sets up disease of the stomach and bowels
