height of between three and four
thousand feet. Amongst stalkers
great diversity of opinion exists as to
when the eagle nests, some holding
that it is late June before she COM
mences the duties of incubation. This
misconception has arisen, we i'm
agine, from the fact that the eagles
are constantly carrying fresh material
to the eyrie even when their young
are well grown. To one eyrie which
we have been in the habit of visit
ing this season the eagles used to
bring small and leafy raspberry
shoots, which they scattered about the
eyrie We have also seen them carry
juniper branches to their nest, and
bamboo stick amongst other things,
at various eyries we have visited
When the eagles nest on a ledge of
rock, it sometimes happens that the
young lose their balance at the edge
of the eyrie and are precipitated to
the ground below. We had such a
case under observation a few seasons
ago, and were interested to find that
the parent birds constructed a new
nest around the chick at the foot of
the rock This was in all probability
to warn foxes or other marauders that
the eaglet was still under parental
protection.
The eyrie of the Golden Eagle is a
most substantial structure, and when
one is built in a tree it may remain

Intact, though untenanted, for a great
number of years. 1t is usually the
case that a pair of eagles have two or
three eyries within comparatively
short distance of each other, and re-
pair them all more or less each sea-
son, though, Of course, only using one
to nest in. We have seen, in one of
these secondary eyries, the remains
of mountain hares, so that they may
possibly be used as larders during the
nesting season. The eagle, when
brooding, is often exceedingly tame
and refuses to leave the nest even
when missiles are hurled at the eyrie
and the tree is struck violently. Once
she has taken wing, however, she
flies straight off, and usually takes up
her position on the summit of a neigh
boring hill, whence she watches and
waits until the intruders have left the
vicinity of the nest
The young, when first hatched out,
are white, downy little fellows, and
are very comical to look at. For the
best part of fortnight the mother
bird broods them, but after that time
only remains at the eyrie during the
night hours, and for the last few
weeks before the young take wing,
she comes to the eyrie only for the
purpose of bringing food.
During the summer the young
eaglets are taught to capture grouse
for themselves, and, after they are
able to hold their own, are driven off
by their parents, many crossing the
sea and rearing their young amidst
the rocky Businesses of the continent.

value reaching $8,926,OO0,000, which is
the value of the agricultural products
of the country from 1910. The value
of farm products from 1899 to the pres
ent year has been progressing without
interruption. If the value of the prod
ucts of 1899 is placed at 100, the value
for this years is 189, or almost dou-

We brought to Court analytical chemists
from New York. Chicago and Mishawaka, Ind,
who swore to the analysis of Grape-Nuts and
that part of the starchy part of the wheat and
barley had been transformed into sugar, the
kind of sugar produced in the human body by
digesting starch (the large part of food.
Some of the State chemists brought on by
the weekly said GrapeNuts could not be
called "predigested" food because not all Of
it was digested outside the body.
The other chemists said any food which had
been partly or half digested outside the body
was commonly known "predigested.
Splitting hairs about the meaning of word.
1t is sufficient that if only one-half of the
food is "predigested' it is easier on weakened
stomach and bowels than food in which no
part is predigested.
To show the facts we introduce DR.. Thos.

of Health, DR.. Ralph w. Webster, chief of the

A disagreement about advertising arose

Following it, an attack us appeared IN

we made particularly regarding Appendicitis.
We replied through the regular papers and
the weekly" thought we hit back rather too
hard and thereupon sued for libel

us about claimed that in many cases of appen-
dicitis operation could be avoided by dis
continuing indigestible food, washing out the
bowels and taking a predigested food Grape

Observe we said MANY cases not all.
Wouldn't that knowledge be a comfort to
those who fear a surgeons knife as they fear
death?
The weekly" writer said that was lie.
We replied that he was ignorant Of the facts.
He was put ON the stand and compelled to
admit he was not a DR.. and had no medical
knowledge of appendicitis and never investi-
gated to fgd out if the testimonial letters to

A famous surgeon testified that when an
operation was required Grape-Nuts would not
obviate it. True
We never claimed that when operation
was required Grape-Nuts would prevent it.
The surgeon testified bacteria rgerms1 help

grown by undigested food frequently.
We claimed and proved by other famous
experts that undigested food largely
responsible for appendicitis.
We showed by expert testimony that many
cases are healed without knife, but by stop

when food was required again it was helpful
to use predigested food which did not over
