CHANGE THE VIBRATION
II Makes for Health.

A man tried leaving OF meat. pota.
toes, coffee, and etc. and adopted a
breakfast OF fruit, Grape-Nuts with
cream, some crisp toast and a cup OF
Postum.
His health began to improve at once
for the reason that meat eater will
reach a place once in n while where
his system seems to become clogged
and the machinery doesn't work
smoothly.
A change Of this kind puts aside food
OF low nutrltive value and takes up
food and drink OF the highest value,
already partly dlgested and capable
OF being quickly changed into good,
rich blood and strong tissue.
A most valuable feature OF Grape.
Nuts is the natural phosphate OF pot
ash grown in the grains from which II
Is made. This Is the element which
transforms albumon In the body into
the soft gray substance which fills
brain and nerve centers.
A few days use of Grape Nuts will
give one a degree OF nervous strength

How to Plant Apple Seed

The best results from planting apple
seed will be secured by following these
directions:
Spring planting is about April 1st.
Soak the seed fortY-eight hours, placing
the sack in a barrel of water, then STRAIT
ify the seed in sand, keeping it damp
and also turn it over every other day to
prevent moulding. Place in a shed
out OF the sunshine where mice and
chickens can't get to it. AS soon as
the seed begins to pip or sprout get it
into the ground at once, as handling
the seed after the sprouts are allowed
to grow over one-eighth of an inch will
be injurious. Fall planting requires no
treatment.

An Object Lesson

Prevailing food conditions at Colfax,
Pullman and other towns along the Pa
louise river should be an eye-opener to
the residents OF that district on the
subject Of forest conservation. With
proper logging and numbering methods
in the upper drainage area of the Pa
louise region these damaging floods
would not have occurred, but with a
continuation of present methods in that
territory they will increase in volume
and disastrous effects from season to
season.
Prior to ten years ogo Colfax and
Pullman were seldom or never flooded
from high water in the Palouse river.
So long as the upper. drainage area OF
that stream was covered with timber
the snow there melted slowly and was
carried off in the streams without disas-
trous effects. But as result of the
reckless logging methods employed by
the Weyerhauser interests, without at
tendant efforts at reforestation, the hill
sides have been swept bare of timber
growth, and the snow in the uplands is
now melted by Chinook winds at the
same time as that in the lowlands, and
each recurring spring season brings
higher food waters.-Spokesman Re-
view.
