MiIIers Make Protest.

Wichita-Forty-two millers of Kan
sas, Oklahoma and Texas attended
meeting of the Southern Kansas Mil
ler's Commercial club, which was held
here. They have decided that the
Minneapolis millers are trying to work
out a department ruling on the new
tariff bill to the detriment of the mill
lers of the Southwest. They say the
Minneapolis millers think they can
get an advantage if they can get the
secretary of the treasury to frame
reduction which will permit them to
mix flour made from Canadian wheat
and flour made from Kansas wheat
and report it under the drawback pro-
vision. They point out that the Min
neapolis millers are working "cuter"
in the law which provides that import
ed goods may be manufa ctured in
bonded warehouses and any waste ma
terial or bAproducts thereof may be
sold for domestic consumption if duty
on the waste material be paid. Bran
and shorts are by-products of wheat
and the Kansas miIlers say the Min
neapolis millers are trying to get
reduction which will permit them to
import Canadian wheat, grind it in
bonded warehouses and mix it with
flour made from Kansas wheat, sell
ing the bran and shorts in this coun-
try and exporting the mixed flour and
getting rebate on the duty paid Or
iginally on the Canadian wheat, under
the drawback section.
The millers decided to hold a meet
ing in Newton on October %, at which
time all of the congressman of Kan
sas and the two senators will be re-
quested to be present to consult con.
corning the matter. A similar meeting
will be held about the same time in
Oklahoma when the matter will be
placed before the congressional dele
cation from that state.
The southwestern miIlers believe
they have found clause in the law
which will stop the practice of the
Minneapolis miIlers and this will be
presented to the congressional dele
cations.

Feeding Farm Hands.

Every farmers wife knows what ire
mendous appetites farm hands usually
have; but while they eat well they
work well, too.
Here's a good suggestion about feed
ing farm hands. Give them plenty
Of Quaker Oats. A big dish of
Quaker Oats porridge with sugar and
cream or milk is the greatest break
fast in the world for man who needs
vigor and strength for a long days
work. The man that eats Quaker Oats
plentifully and often is the man who
does good work without excessive IA
tigue. There is sustaining quality
in Quaker Oats not found in other
foods, and for economy it is at the
head of the list To meet all needs,
Quaker Oats is packed in regular size
packages, large size family packages
and Theoretically sealed tins (for hot
climate). 5

HAVING FUN WITH A BANKER
Practical Joke That Doubtless Was
More Appreciated by the Player
Than the Victim.

Councilman F. a. Drew is fond of
playing practical jokes on William H.
Lee, president of the Merchandise
cIede National bank. Mr.. Drew was
for years a director in Mr.. Lees bank.
While the bankers were waging
their recent war upon prohibition, Mr.
Drew late one night rang up Mr.. Lee
at his home and represented that he
was a reporter assigned to get Mr.
Lees views on the situation.
Mr.. Lee complained somewhat bit
terly. on being called out of bed at that
hour of night to give an interview, but
finally got warmed up to the subject
and for 80 minutes pictured the DESC
lation that would result in ST. Louis
if Missouri went dry.

conclusion of the interview. you are

"No," snapped Mr.. Lee, 81 am Mr..

cuticura Thus Proven Pure and Sweet.
A New York friend of Cuticura

A New York friend of Cuticura
writes:
my three year old son and heir,
after being put to bed on trip across
the Atlantic, investigated the state
room and located a box Of graham
crackers and a box of Cuticura Oint-
ment. When a search was made for
the box, it was found empty and the
kid admitted that he had eaten the
contents of the entire box spread on
the crackers. 1t cured him Of bad
cold and 1 don't know what else"
No more conclusive evidence could
be offered that every ingredient of Gu
ticura Ointment is absolutely pure,
sweet and harmless. If it may be
safely eaten by a young child, none but
the most beneficial results can be ex-
pected to attend its application to even
the tenderest skin or youngest infant.

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory if the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trou-
BILE can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because of it's great
er strength than other makes.
