WHEAT AND BREAD
The Relation Of tho Latter to the
Former-Why Dakota Wheat Makes
Good FIour-cIimate and Soil Pc.
culiarly Adapted.

Bread is the staff Of life, and good
flour is necessary to make good bread.
A good many people blame the yeast.
some the cook and others the oven.
But back of all is the wheat from
which the flour is made. 1t is inn
possible to make good flour from in
ferior wheat, and no matter how much
you may doctor" it, it will not make
wholesome, pure white bread.
1t is generally recognized that Da-
kota hard wheat is superior to any
raised in the world for bread makingl
Some qualities of the Dakota soil and
climate are peculiarly adapted to rails
ing wheat that makes superior flour.
There the crop reaches it's full mature
ity before frost blights it and yet is
not subject to the blighting heat that
often withers southern grain. The re-
suit is full, plump and matured
kernel.
The firm of Wilhau & Halverson,
grocers, 16 and 10, North First ave-
nue., have put in stock a flour that
meets all these requirements. 1t is
made of the best selected, double
screened Dakota wheat This flour is

Of the Food That Restored Her to
Health.
my food was killing me and didn't
know the cause" writes Colo. young
lady For two years l was thin and
sickly, suffering from indigestion and
infammatory rheumatism.
II had tried many different kinds of
diet plain living, and many of the
remedies recommended, but got no bet
ter.
Finally, about five weeks ago, moth
er suggested that try Grape Nuts and

cream or milk. A change for the bet
ter began at once.
To-day l am we'll and am gaining
weight and strength all the time. I've
gained 10 lbs. in the last five weeks and
do not suffer any more from indiges-
ton, and the rheumatism is all gone.
II know it is to Grape Nuts alone
that / owe my restored health. l still
eat the food twice day, and never tire
of it, Name given by Postum Co.,
Battle Creek, Mich.
The flavor of Grape-Euts is peculiar
to itself. 1t is neutral, not too sweet,
and has an agreeable, healthful quality
that never grows tiresome
One of the sources of rheumatism is
from overlooking. the system with acid
material, the result of imperfect diges-
ton and assimilation.
AS soon as improper food is aban-
doned and Grape is taken regu-
iarly, digestion is made strong, the or
gans do their work of building UP good
red blood cells and of carrying away
the excess of disease making material
from the system.
The result is certain and steady
return to normal health and mental
activity. There's a reason" Read

Political bosses disregard for public

an illustration of both these conditions

definite has been done in the matter
of political nominations, but the poll
ticians are at work. They are schem

for certain interests. The people are
plodding along in their usual indus

politics. But this much is true-gC
