FOOD FACTS
What an M. ID. Learned.

A prominent Georgia physician
went through food experience which
he makes public:
1T was my own experience that
first led me to advocate Grape-Nuts
food and | also know, from having
prescribed It to convalescents and
other weak patients, that the food is
q wonderful rebuiider and restorer
OF nerve and brain tissue, as we'll as
muscle. 1t improves the digestion
and sick patients always gain Just as
] did in strength and weight very rap
idly.
Il was In such a low state that |
had to give up my work entirely, and
went to the mountains OF this state.
but two months there did not improve
me; In fact, was not quite as well as
when left home.
my food did not sustain me and
It became plain that must change.
Then began to use Grape-Nuts food
and In two weeks could walk a mile
without fatigue, and in ave weeks
returned to my home and practice.
taking up hard work again. Since
that time ! have felt as well and
strong as ever did In my life.
"As a physician who seeks to help
all sufferers, consider It a duty TO
make these facts public"

the regular food does not seem to-sus-
tain the body, will work miracles.

PRACTICAL ADVICE ABOUT
DIVERSIFIED FARMING

In the tube has risen higher than the
general surface in the vessel. Sim
ilarly, If piece of loaf sugar is
placed upon saucer containing a
small quantity Of water, so that only
fraction Of the sugar Is immersed,
the liquid will be observed to mount
rapidly through the substance of the
sugar, until the whole piece is satu-
rated. The ascent of the water is
also due to the working OF capillary
force, and water In the soil rises to
the surface in the same way. The
following notes are extracted from an
article on this subject, which is one
Of great importance to the practical
cultivator, that lately appeared in the
American Journal of Agriculture:
Water deep down in the soil is at
tracted and drawn to the surface Of
the soil grains there. the soil particles
above them attract and draw the wat
er to themselves and up till It reaches
the surface. Once at the surface, the
air claims the water and 1t is taken
away from the soil by evaporation.
Soil particles not only have the
power OF drawing water to them
selves, but OF holding it as we'll. BY
simple mathematical law, the small
err the particle the greater proper
tional surface 1t has, hence the finer.
the particles are, the more water a.
given soil is capable of holding. Also,
the closer together the soil grains are
the more retentive is the soil of mois-
ture. For this last reason deep plow-
ing for breaking up large masses into
fine grains, and heavy packing to
bring these grains into close contact,
are employed In dry farming opera
tions, and may be adopted In any re-
gion, in dry times, to make deep soil
hold large amounts of water.
The practical application of the
principles Of soil capillarity consists
In first loosening the soil to as great
depths as possible for creating large
surfaces of exposure, allowing the
soil to catch and imbibe as much wat
er as possible, IL 1t be not already sat-
urated, and then stirring the surface
frequently to prevent loss from above.
The farmer who understands fully
the laws Of capillary action and so
handles his soil as to receive and re-
tain large amounts of moisture has
mastered one of the greatest points of
successful farming, Agricultural
News.

Lawns For the Farms.

Why should not farm houses be
surrounded by well kept lawns? OF
late years farmers are taking more
interest in their home surroundings
than they did a decade or two ago.
Many a farm house nowadays is
adorned by neatly kept lawn and
the only fault that can be found is
that there are not more attractive
farm homes. 1t was, until recently,
the practice to have barns for the
care OF live stock much more COM
Portable and attractive than the
dwelling house of the family. In or.
der to have nice lawn it is not
necessary to attempt extensive land
scape gardening. The life of lawn
is the mower, and the lawn must be
moved because it kills out the weeds
and stimulates the growth of the
grass. If there are not already old
forest trees on the home place. some
variety of trees should be set out,
the kind depending upon the lati-
tude and climatic conditions. Fruit
trees may be advantageously raised
on the country lawn, and they will
serve two purposes, as they furnish
both shade and fruit. The lawn
should have few walks with flower
beds and shrubs to make 1t more at
tractive. There are many kinds Of
roses and shrubs that can be, grown
almost anywhere. During the win
ter months plans may be made for
the laying out of the lawn and for
the planting of the flowers.

AN ODDLY SHAPED CHURCH.
And Other Freaks of the Brooklyn
Approach to Manhattan Bridge.

And Other Freaks OF the Brooklyn
Approach to Manhattan Bridge.
When the work of extending Flat
bush avenue to form a proper ap-
proach for the new Manhattan Bridge
was well under way Brooklyn thought
that the Fleet Street Methodist Epis-
copal Church would have to go. The
first Montauk Theatre by a mighty
effort was moved over the danger
line and turned a new face upon the
new thoroughfare, but it did look as
if the church couldn't escape.
But it has escaped, though not un-
scathed. Workmen got to work at
it, but they tore down only part.
Then they built new wall along the
line of the extended avenue.
The result is somewhat curious.
Imagine a rectangular building with
an arched roof, and then take a gem
erous slice off one corner. The result
is very irregular pentagon at the
base and an indescribabIe tumble of
lines and curves from the caves up.
This church is the most striking
example of buildings made into odd
shapes by the Flatbush avenue extern
sion, but many smaller structures
now appear in grotesque form: Some
corner buildings, once square, are
now triangular and in other cases
mere slices of structures have been
preserved.
Buildings have been fronting this
new street for some time, but the
street itself is a series Of hillocks and
wreckage and hoardings. Brooklyn
hopes it will be a real thoroughfare
some day.-New York Sun.
