He knew how to feed his men.
Some years ago a contractor build
ing railroad in a warm climate was
troubled a great deal by sickness
among the laborers.
He turned his attention at once to
their food and found that they were
getting full rations of meat and were
drinking water from a stream near by.
He issued orders to cut down the
amount of meat and to increase greatly
the quantity of Quaker Oats fed to the
men.
He also boiled Quaker Oats and
mixed the thin oatmeal water with
their drinking water.
Almost instantly all signs of stomach
disorders passed and his men showed
q decided improvement In strength
and spirits
This contractor had experience tina,
