FOOD
FACTS
Grape-Nuts
f ZOE
A Body Balance

People hesitate at the statement that
the famous food, Grape-Nuts, yields as
much nourishment from one pound as
can be absorbed by the system from
ten pounds of meat, bread, wheat or
oats. Ten pounds Of meat might con-
tain more nourishment than n pound
of Grape-Nuts, but not in shape that
the system will absorb as large a pro.
portion of, as the body can take up
from one pound of Grape-Nuts.
This food contains the selected parts
of wheat and barley which are pre-
pared and by natural mea predi-
gested, transformed into a form of
sugar, ready for immediate assimila-
tion. People in all parts of the world
testify to the value of Grape-Nuts.
A Mo. mar says: II have gained ten
pounds on Grape-Nuts food. / can

right along, but there was no ten
pounds of added flesh until Grape-Nuts
food was used.
One curious feature regarding true
health food is that Its use will reduce
the weight Of q corpulent person with
unhealthy flesh, and will add to the
weight of a thin person not properly
nourished. There is abundance Of
evidence to prove this.

SHAD ARE DOOMED
DETERMINATION OF TooTHsoME
FISH SEEMS CERTAIN.
Fishing Season Opens With Increased
Number Of Fish Traps and
Nets Set to Catch
Them.

Improved methods used by fisher
men in capturing the shad and the
shad roe as they enter the mouths of
the rivers on the Atlantic coast to
spawn, are almost certainly accom-
phshing their determination in spite
OF all that the fisheries bureau can do.
The season has just opened up and
there is less chance of the fish reach
ing spawning ground than previous
years for the enterprising fishermen,
not content to take their fish up the
river after they had gotten into fresh
water where the spawn will be safe,
are stretching their nets as far out to
sea as possible. In former years the
buSeau of fisheries was able to cap
ture as high as 210,000,000 eggs in
the Susquehanna river, as opposed to
S,OOO,OOO last year. On the Delaware
river, where the catch has gone as
high as 115,00O,O0O, it last year fell be-
low 100000, while on the Potomac it
fell from 6S,000,0O0 to 100000. Sim
liar conditions exist in all streams
along the coast and are rapidly grow
ing worse.
This condition is due, not to the alb
sence OF captured fish or to inactivity
on the part of the bureau, but to the
improved methods at present used by
fishermen in capturing the fish. Shad
always spawn in fresh water, and they
come into the rivers and their tribu-
taries in search of spawning grounds.
At other seasons of the year they live
in the open waters Of the ocean. In the
spawning season they were known to
be so plentiful years ago in the Poto-
mac and tributaries of the Chesapeake
that it was with difficulty that a boat
could be pushed among them. Captain
John Smith found them so when, in
early jamestown days, he pushed a
small boat up the Potomac to a water
fall above Washington which stopped
their advance. His report of this find
ing was one of the early wonders Of
| America that was carried back to Eng
land
This running" of the fish arises
from the fact that their eggs are rem
dered worthless if they come in con-
tact with salt water, so the instinct
of the fish causes them to seek inland
streams and as a consequence in the
spawning season these streams are
alive with them when they are not
interfered with The knowledge of
these facts on the part of the fisher
men is, however, the downfall and the
doom of the shad, for the fishermen
have taken advantage of the annual
pilgrimage to fresh water and have

cries such a material disadvantage,
for the fishermen had not then gone
beyond the mouths Of the rivers, and
great numbers of the fish caught
spawned while in captivity and the
spawn was artificially Matched and
used in restocking the streams. But
now this process is not possible, for
the reason that the nets are placed
far beyond the mouths of the rivers,
and if the fish are caught and held in
captivity, in the mean time spawning,
the spawn Immediately comes in con-
tact with salt water which means the
death of the life germ in the egg. The
