To Mothers

The best food for a child is important to you.
Will you please read these facts.
The wisdom of the ages has decided that wheat
is the perfect food. Not corn not oats. In wheat
alone are all the needed elements supplied in bal
anced form.
But the wheat should be whole
White flour leaves out very important elements
all the wheat that's not white.
And flour, in the form of Bread is never suffi-
GENTLY cooked The inside of the loaf never gets
half enough heat to break up the granues of starch
so the digestive juices get to them. So, much
of the starch-which is 20 per cent of the wheat
never digests. It's insoluble.
That is the reason for Mapl-Flake.
Our wheat is steam-cooked for six hours then
cured. Then every berry is faxed thin that the
full heat attacks every atom. Then they toasted
for 80 minutes at 4OOdegrees
The result is food that all food. No part goes
to waste. No part ferrnents and breeds germs in
the stomach.
We get our delicious flavor by boiling the wheat
with pure maple syrup.

CORN AT $40 AN EAR.
In Iowa They Raise It and Buy It
in Themselves.

in Themselves.
From the New York Sun.
Ten dollars seems a pretty big price to
pay for just one ear of corn. but out in
Iowa they raise corn which brings even
a man out there to raise corn which he
cannot afford to own.
Improbable as this sounds. it is true
and the explanation is that prize ears OF
seed corn become the property of the agri-
cultural courses where they are exhibited
They are then sold at auction. and the
man who raised them does not always
feel that he can afford to bid them in
That was precisely what happened to an
Iowa farmer named Mccullough not long
ago He entered a good many ears of
corn in the competition held at Marshall
town under the management of the State
4 Agricultural College. Over 1900 ears were
entered and one Of McCullough's won first
prize.
The prize was a $50 water supply sys-
tenn. so the farmer probably felt that he
S115O But when it came to buying back
eighty other ears which he had entered
he had to let them go to others.
Those eighty ears brought 1910; SO
that provided he could have sold the
eiehty-one ears of corn for what they ac-
tually brought. $216 he could have bought
his water supply system and had S66 left.
G. F. Howard won 500 with single
ear of corn in the same competition and
paid so for the ear to get 1t back. For
ten other ears which he entered he had to
hid IN to Sal 7j for the lot to get them.
Thirteen bushels of the corn that was
entered brought an average of $3.50 a
bushel Iowa farmers have walked up to
the importance of improving their crops
by improving their seed The consequence
is that Iowa raises the finest corn in the
country and is constantly improving the
quality and the quantity to the acre.

Chance for All Artists.
In an interview with the secretary of

the undertaking as an effort to give all
artists an opportunity to show the best

Americans to Help.
Many artists of great worth. both Eng
lish and Americana number of the latter
living in Europe-have been denied official
recognition for years by the Royal Acad-
envy. No matter how worthy production
may be, its acceptance by the ''R. A
has not always been a foregone conclu-
sion. The decisions of this body have sell
dom given satisfaction. and often an out
cry has been raised at their rejection of
works which. exhibited elsewhere. have
at once won fame for their authors. The
Allied Artists seem to have come along
at the psychological moment. Already the
organization has been inundated with ap-
plications. and practically all the space
of the huge rotunda of the Albert Hall
the largest in Europe-has been taken up.
When the idea was first mooted. and
somewhat timorously put forward. it was
proposed to hold the exhibition for a week
only: but SO many artists aided the
scheme not only by lending their pictures
but by generous financial support that
the hall was taken for month, and funds
are already in hand sufficient to guaran-
tee the repetition of the exhibition for the
next three years.
This annual exhibition at Londons most
prominent hall is likely to have a serious
effect upon the Royal Academy A dis

Probably the most significant creation
of the novel is the figure of Markham
Macleod. In some respects he is proba-

gogue. He will suggest more than one
figure in the public eye-a man who sat
