the second column represents the

CHANGE IN FOOD

1t is worth knowing that a change
In food can cure dyspepsia. Il deem
1t my duty to let you know how Grape.
Nuts food has cured me of indigestion.
Il had been troubled with it for
years. until last year my doctor rec.
commended Grape-Nuts food to be used
every morning. l followed instruc.
lions and now am entirely we'll.
"The whole family like Grape-Nuts,
we use four packages a week. You
are welcome to use this testimonial as
you see fit"
The reason this lady was helped by
the use of Grape-Nuts food, is that it
Is predigested by natural processes
and therefore does not tax the stomach
as the food she had been using; it also
contains the elements required for
building up the nervous system. II
that part of the human body is in per-
feet working order. there can be no
dyspepsia, for nervous energy repre-.
sents the steam that drives the en-.

When the nervous system is run
down. the machinery of the body
works badly. Grape-Nuts food can be
used by small children as well as
adults. It is perfectly cooked and
ready for instant use.

A student of human nature who is

getting considerable entertainment out
Of the audiences. The other evening
he says he observed a fashionable
looking woman accompanied by a man
who might have been her country
cousin, and as he sat close to them
he heard some Of their conversation,
which tended to confirm that impress
sion. When the curtain fell at the end
of the first act the woman turned to
her companion and said:
Wouldn't you have time to go out
and get libretto?"
The man looked puzzled for a mo
ment, but finally the light seemed to
break and smiling in gratified way
he said:
ooh, yes"
Then he went out.
where is the libretto?" asked the
woman when he returned.
"Oh, did you want one, too?" he
said, looking puzzled once more.

In digging either an open ditch or
one that is intended for thing, always
begin at the outlet and have this out
let SO that there will be drop of at
east six inches. Tile drains are often
'endered entirely useless when they
low into q stream or pond on the
'evel or when they open out on the
ground without any drop at the
mouth and unless there is consider.
able fall there it will be but a short
lime before the drain is plugged up at
The mouth and the whole system rem
Tered worthless until cleaned out.
The best drains are straight, as this
allows the tile to be placed in line
without curves, which retard the flow
of water. Sand and silt will lodge at
curve If anywhere, in the drain. In
order to insure straight ditch, line
should be used, set three and one-half
inches back from where the ditch is
to be, so that it will not be disturbed
when the trench is dug.
The tile used should be large
enough to remove in from "a to %
hours all the excess of water from the
heaviest rains. Where there are large
wet places to be drained, large pipes
are necessary, but where the work of
draining is systematically carried out
over an entire field regardless of wa
ter or contents, wet or low places,
smaller tile will give satisfaction. The
greater the flow, the smaller the tile
may be. If the grade is doubled it in
creases the carrying capacity of the
tile nearly one-third. If anyone is in
doubt as to what size tile to use it
would be safest to get some that is
too large rather than too small. On
account of sediment, roots and silt. it
is seldom advisable to use tile smaller
than three inches in diameter, al
though on high ground two inch tile
may be all right. The size of the
main must depend on the area to be
drained, the flow, and the number of
laterals. Prof. F. H. King, in his

Fiourishins Colony Planted Where All

Bryan, Tex, is an example of what
is being done in the South by colonies
of Italian immigrants. There are in
that township $500 contadini under
the spirited guidance of young Sicil.
ian priest, Father Giovanni Militello.
They raise mostly grain and cotton
either on their own lands or on rent
ed farms, which they get at IS an
acre year. They save from 500 to
$1,000 year and live comfortably on
the rest. (!
Father Militello was able to collect
in a few days $1,1O0 to cancel the debt
on the local church. His parishioners
embellished the church with num-
Der of statues and presented their pas
tor with safe and buggy and team.
Once a month he drives to the far
thest point in the township and cele.
brates mass in tent.
Living is cheap; flour, meat, su-
gar. coffee and oil are at low price.
Meat sells at S cents pound. State
and county taxes are very light, and
the climate Is like that of Sicily.
Land is SO abundant that its use 10

will clear it of timber. The Italians
cut the timber and sell It at 81 for
eight cubic feet, raise grain the first
year and get crop of cotton the sec

the road the vast cotton and grain
plantations" says a visitor. CHOSE
kept by Italians could be distin-
guished because Of their freedom
from weeds. AS we drove past the
priest would call out to some of the
farmers by name, and they would
leave their spade or plow and come
running to us, hat in hand. Behind
the farmers came the farmers wives
and the children; and how many
children! I found one mother with
eleven of them!"
