been great favorite in Oroville, is
not in robust health, it is regretable to
say, which may be the cause of Mrs.
Williams deciding to make her home
elsewhere.

CHANGE THE VIBRATION 1t Makes for Health.

A man tried leaving off 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 a meat eater will reach place once in a 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 nutritive value and takes up food and drink of the highest value, already partly digested 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 it is made. This is the element which transforms albumen in the body into the soft gray substance which fills brain and nerve centers.
 A few days use of Grape-Nuts will give one degree of nervous strength well worth the trial.

CHECK DEALING IN FUTURES
Delegation of Members of Chicago Board of Trade Going to Washing
 ton to Prevent Legislation.

A delegation of members of the Chi. cago board of trade will be sent to Washington to lobby with congress men against any legislation that may be introduced to check the business of dealing in future prices of grains and other farm products, etc. The members find it profitable business, and do not like to have it interfered with, as is likely to be done.
 James A. Patton, one of the lead CTS in the movement to prevent this kind of legislation, even presumes to pretend that the system of dealing In futures is benefit to the farmers. and would like to have the board of trade looked upon as a benevolent or ganization, working in behalf of the tillers of the soil, says Indiana Far. mer. He says:
 "The trouble is that people are preJudiced because they don't under stand the present system and it's bene- fits. The farmer at present is en- abled to get daily quotations and to know exactly what his grain will bring when marketed. A law preventing dealing in futures on food products and cotton would injure consumer and producer alike, in my opinion. I be- Heve trade would be simply paralyzed. The farmer would get less for his grain, cattle and hogs and the public would have to pay more. I don't be- leve congress will pass such a law"
 How kindly the farmers will feel to- wards James, when they read this He thinks they don't understand the present system" We'll, it is true they do not, and who does understand it, except those who have managed to get inside the ring? Then he says: 'The farmer at present is enabled to get daily quotations" etc. Yes, but why couldn't he get daily quotations just as we'll if the present system" row trouble on that account; the farm CTS can get daily quotations, all right, and just the same, present system" or not. But he thinks that trade would be simply paralyzed if the present system" were abolished Yes, trade would be paralyzed, but it would be the trade in margins and fu- lures, not legitimate trade in farm products. Such trade would be put on firm, legitimate basis, where it has never been for scores of years past.
 J. A. P. seems to have lost all thought of his interest in the matter in his philanthropic concern for the farmer and the consumer of his prod ucts, the dear public. He grieves to think that the farmer would have to take less for his grain, cattle and hogs. and the public would have to pay more for them. He does not stop to explain how this would be; it rSesz 1s .Sp plain to him, perhaps, he
 needless. But if so he is M1 keh; it is puzzle to us and no doubt is to most people. He really must take pity on us and explain, if he can. We feel sure that he is wrong. The result of the contem- plated legislation would be exactly the reverse of what he pictures it.
 Farmers ought to keep sharp out look on the work of this board of trade delegation in congress, and use their hest efforts with congressman to oppose it. and secure the passage of legislation to prevent dealing in futures. as a detriment to legitimate k~oAo

Deep cultivation means running the
cultivator shovels two and one-half or
more inches below the surface of the
soil. Shallow cultivation, from one

be set out four by four and One-half
feet apart, and cultivation should COM
mence at once and continue as long as
it is possible to- go between them.
Deep cultivation should be practiced
at first, gradually growing shallower
with each cultivation. The crop
should begin ripening in August and
continue until September or a frost.
Deliveries to the cannery are regu-.
lated largely by the cannery. Usually,
a contract is entered into between the
grower and the factory specifying con-
ditions of growing and delivery. Prob,
ably the fairest form of contract
would call for the growing of GER
tain number, of acres rather than the
delivery of a certain number of tons,
as it is impossible for the farmer to
anticipate the season. Provisions are
frequently put in the contract to COW
'er the date of the beginning of the
delivery.
A number of diseases affect the to.
mato, among them, leaf-spot, leaf
mould and great many others. They
are hard to keep in check by spraying

care in the handling of the plants, to
keep them thrifty and under the best
growing conditions, is the best pre-
tentative of disease. a. .@-

The best way to insure a corn crop
against failure is to give it the proper.
kind Of cultivation. Cultivation be-
gins with the preparation of the soil
for the seed bed. Frequent narrowing
before the corn is planted will create
a dust mulch to hold moisture and
will render fine and firm condition
of the soil particles. This is essential
to enable the corn roots to penetrate.
the soil and get into touch with the
available plant food.
