CUBS FOOD

Grape-Nuts is never crying baby
Many babies who cannot take any

MY little baby was given up by
three doctors who said that the con.

thing to do would be to try Grape.

follows: soaked ~ tablespoonfuls
in one pint of cold water for half an
hour. then strained off the liquid and
mixed 12 tcaspoonfuls of this strained
GrapeNuts juice with six teaspoonfuls
of rich milk, put in a pinch of salt
and little sugar, warmed it and gave
it to baby every two hours.
In this simple, easy way I saved

FARMERS sWINDLED
Of Mitiiens of Dollars BY Means of
Low-Grade Fertilizers.

Columbus, O.-Bribery, long con-
tinued and fragrant, was at the bot
tom of the Infamous system through
which the farmers of Ohio have been
swindled out of millions of dollars by
means of low grade fertilizers. For
years a certain attache of the state
BOARD Of agriculture, trusted and hon-
Dred by the farmers of Ohio, took
brihes and sold them out. Mere rub
bish was sold in the market as valua-
bic fertiliZing material at fancy prices,
and he protected the steal by defeat
ng every effort to uncover the cheat.
AS result, the manufacturers of this
almost worthless stuff have been able
10 drive legitimate concerns out of this
state and have become reputed mil
ionaires. The damage done is not
alone in the swindling of the innocent
purchasers out of their money. The
scheme of deception caused many un-
suspecting land owners to sacrifice
their acres because they thought them
no longer productive. Finding that
what was apparently the highest grade
Of fertilizer did not restore their fer
.ility they sold the farms.

HOSTILITY TOWARD HowE's sILL
For Franchise Is ImperiIing the Life
of the Measure.

Columbus, O.-Judging from condi-
tions now existing, there is slight
chance for the enactment Of the Howe
franchise taxation bill, which seeks
porations of the state the prin-
ciple involved in the so-called
Nichols law for valuation of stock
companies. There are many things
operating against this measure,
besides the corporations themselves.
Other interests are affected, and they
are extremely active in their opposi-
tion.
Gov. Andrew L. Harris is of the opin-
Ion that the measure is inopportune at
this time because of the fact that the
constitutional amendment for the clas-
sification Of property is pending. II
this is adopted by the general assem-
bly, and Endorsed by the political par
ties the next legislature will have the
power to make all such changes in the
method OF taxation as it may deem
necessary, and franchise taxation sure
Ly will be one of the questions discuss
ed. If the amendment should fail the
next general assembly can take up he
matter and work under the present
constitution.
A strong indication of the coming
late of the bill was observed when the
bill came up in the senate for third
reading. Senator Frederic c. Howe,
the author, moved that final action be
postponed until later. This motion
was unanimously agreed to.

Columbus, O.SThe senate adopted

resolution by both branches of the as.
sembly.
While nothing is said in the meas
ure as to the make up of the commits
tee, Senator Espy is authority for the
statement that it will likely consist of
two democrats and one republican in
the senate, with the order reversed in
the house.
Rose Bill Antagonized.
The other side of the county local
option side is being heard from.
In the senate there was a veritable
avalanche of petitions and remon-
strances bearing upon the Rose bill,
but the opponents Of the measure far
outnumber it's friends.
The aggregate number of names to
petitions praying for the passage Of
the bill amounted to 3,499, while the
signers to the remonstrances num-
bered the overwhelming volume of A..

At the meeting of the senate com.

attacked the legality of the tax COM

recommendation were submitted to

The Rulinu Passion,

Nanny Liza has lived with the
"fambly" long enough to acquire
words and expressions, which, used at
second hand, are sometimes fatal to
the family gravity. Recently mem.
ber of the little circle had occasion to
call for the horse and surrey from

long while the order was repeated,
with no immediate result. Nanny,
having heard the conversation, and
knowing the impatience of her mis-
tress, expressed herself thus:
Huh! Dey's jes' no use countin' on

AN ADVERTISING TRICK FOR
WESTERN FARMERS.
Real Estate agents" Go After
Men with Land for Sale and
Reap Rich Harvest.

A smooth scheme for separating
farmers from their money has been
worked with much success in South
Dakota. An oily CRATER calls on a
farmer and makes a bid for his land.
The figures are absurdly low at first,
but by degrees are raised as high as
$50 an acre. and the farmer consents.
Then the visitor explains that he is
only an agent. but that he can sell the
land at the price named IL the owner
will agree to pay for advertising at
the rate of fifty cents an acre. The
agent" promises orally that the ad-
vertising money will not be payable
until the land is sold, but this stipula-
ton is not contained in a contract
that the farmer signs.
In few days he receives a copy Of
an ad and not Over-courteous demand
for money. It is said that twenty
two agriculturists were caught with
this bait in Brown County and that
one of them gave up 1920. Others de-
clare hotly that they will not pay but
they will make fight in the courts.

An Object Lesson.

Miranda" said the mistress, 'you
are good cook, and just know that
you are too good for us to keep. Some
man will come along one of these days
and induce you to marry him"
20, no, num-" answered Miranda,
fervently. 'I've lived with you and
your husband too long to want ever to
get married"
There are two conclusions to be
drawn from the reply of the faithful
servant; one is that she was loyal to
her employers, the other is as it
may be.
