TO PRETENDERS.
4 Wholesome Word for Guidance.

Just word to you, "Collier's' and other glaring examples of Modern Yellow Journalism and Cigarettes.
 Environment gives you a viewpoint from which it is difficult to under stand that some people even nova days act from motives of old fashion ed honesty.
 There are honest makers of foods and healthful beverages and there are honest people who use them.
 Perhaps you are trained to believe there is no honesty in this world. There is, although you may not be of kind to understand it.
 Some of you have been trained in a sorry class of pretenders, but your training does not taint the old fashion ed person trained without knowledge of pretense and deceit.
 These letters came to us absolutely many thousand from people who have been helped or entirely healed by fol- lowing the suggestions to quit the food or drink which may be causing the physical complaints and change to Postum Coffee or GrapeNuts food.
 You are not intelligent enough to know the technical reasons why the change makes change in the cells of the body. Your knowledge, or lack of knowledge, makes not the slightest difference in the facts.
 You can print from old and worn plates all the cheap books your presses will produce and sell them as best you can, but such acts and your "learned' editorials are but conner cial, and seek only dollars" and much by pretence.
 When you branch out into food values you become only ridiculous
 Stick to what you know. The field may be small but it is safe.
 This first letter is from the Presi- dent of the Christian Nation, a worthy Christian paper of New York.

FARMING IN
 THE SOUTH
SOME WHEAT POINTS.
(By B. A. Season,)


 Progressive farmers of eastern states are realizing the necessity of liberally feeding their wheat crops. Enormous quantities of commercial fertilizers are bought by them, and the demand is increasing. These farm CTS understand the necessity of feed ing the crop so well that it may be able to endure unfavorable weather and resist the attacks of insects. rlants which are deeply rooted and make strong, vigorous growth will be far more likely to do this than stunted, sicllly ones. The wheat plants must be supplied with material for good strong growth right at the start so that both roots and tops will de- velop well before winter sets in, as the plants are practically dormant during the cold months. There should be the right sort of fertilizing matter at hand to assist a rapid, sturdy growth in early spring, which will suffer no check before the ripening of the grain.
 And now about the quantity and quality of fertilizer to be used. A good many farmers I know of think 200 pounds 8 sufficient amount to spread over an acre, and then thresh- ing time comes they are much disap- pointed in the yield, and blame the weather, the seed or the fertilizer Such complaints are common just now when the threshing machines are working.
 It is hard to convince some of these farmers that if they had fed their crop better the returns would have been less disappointing; yet it is true that the man who only applies 200 pounds of fertilizer per acre, is applying only about one-half the amount of actual fertility he should apply, and he should not be disappointed when he does not obtain full crop. Far better would it be for him to apply 800 pounds per acre, which will supply something more than a normal yield.
 Why be content with fifteen or twenty bushels per acre, if a little out lay in added fertility to the soil will increase the bushels to thirty or forty, and leave something in the soil for future use? We should not be satis- fled to put only the fertility into our soils which we desire to draw out Feed the land well and make it pay three-fold, even as we feed our stock for profitable returns. The mineral elements, phosphorus and potash, are not lost even though not taken up by the crop to which applied. They be- come a part of the soil and are ready to contribute to the next crop. Phos- phoric acid aids in the formation of the grain, and potash plays an i'm portant part In the milling quality. It fills out the berries, and growers have learned that some of the varieties which were not considered very good have been lately classed among the first, because the potash content was increased. Manufacturers put out bet ter brands for wheat now than years ago, for they understand that while phosphoric acid is essential as a grain former, yet potash follows closely to contribute quality. Time was when our soils were good natured wheat soils; not so now, and we must feed them with intelligence. The larger the yield, the lower the cost, with a great CT troft.

"Let not the sun go down on thy wraht" was the old law of life as laid down in the Mosaic period of the worlds history.
