What About Brain Food?
This Question Came Up i'm the Recent
Trial for Libel.

A weekly" printed some criticisms of tho
claims made for our foods. 1t evidently did
not fancy our reply printed in various news
papers, and brought suit for libel. At the trial
some interesting facts came out.
Some Of the chemical and medical experts
differed widely.
The following facts, however, were quite
clearly established:
Analysis Of brain by an unquestionable au.
thority. Geoghegan, shows of Mineral Salts,
Phosphoric Acid and Potash combined (Phos.
phate ct Potash), POI per cent Of the total,
b.33 Of all Mineral Salts.
This is over one-half.
Beaunis, another authority, snows jPhos-
phoric Acid combined" and Potash 1914 per
cent from a total Of 1910.
Considerable more than one-hali of Phos-
plate Of Potash.
Analysis of Grape-Nuts shows: Potassium
and Phosphorus. (Which join and make Phos-
plate of Potash), is considerable more than
one-half Of all the mineral salts in the food.
DR.. Geo. W. Carey, an authority on the con.
stituent elements of the body, says: The
gray matter of the brain is controlled entirely
by the inorganic c~ellsalt, Potassium Phosphate
phosphate Of Potash). This salt unites with
albumen and by the addition of oxygen creates
nerve fluid or the gray matter of the brain.
OF course, there is a trace Of other salts and
other organic matter in nerve fluid, but Potas-
stun Phosphate is the chief factor. and has
the power within itself to attract, by its own

All Need the Earth

There is an A1taeus in every one
OF us and in the whole of us which
needs the earth" says Henry Dem
Arrest Lloyd In his posthumous book.
"A grandmother was spreading before
the vision Of a beloved child a picture
OF the beauties Of heaven with it's
gates Of pearl and its pavements of
gold. What said the scornful boy,
unpactlvated, no mud? There spoke
the real philosopher. We are earth
animals, and w need contact with
all the aspects of nature, human ma
ture, and other nature. They who
feed wholly on white bread and the
tenderloin and the sweetness and
light of the best people, art for the
arts sake, cannot get phosphates
enough and soon develop the ricketts,.
The man l heard say he liked to eat
with the common people once in a
while, the woman you heard say that
she thought It was her duty to as
sociate with the middle class, confess
the approach Of extinction. They are
losing touch with the source Of all per
sOnal and social power"

Further on he says: The beginning and end
OF the matter is to supply the lacking princi-
pie. and in molecular form, exactly as nature
furnishes 1t in vegetables, fruits and grain.
To supply defciencies-this is the only law Of
cure"
The natural conclusion is that if Phosphate
OF Potash is the needed mineral element in
brain and you use food which does not contain
1t, you have brain fag because its daily loss is
not supplied.
On the contrary, II you eat food known to
be rich in this element, you place before the
life forces that which nature demands for
brain-building.
In the trial a sneer was uttered because Mr..
Post announced that he had made years of re.
search in this country and some clinics of
Europe, regarding the effect of the mind on
digestion Of food.
Blu: We must be patient with those who
sheer at facts they know nothing about.
Mind does not work well on a brain that is
broken down by lack of no~urishment
A peaceful and evenly poised mind is neces-
sary to good digestion.
Worry, anxiety, fear, hate, &C., &C, directly
interfere with or stop the flow OF Ptyalin, the
digestive juice Of the mouth, and also inter.
fere with the flow of the digestive juices of
stomach and pancreas.
Therefore, the mental state of the Individual
has much to do (more than suspected) with
digestion.

Add to Cost Of uivinu,

The American Magazine reprints a
letter which was sen to the A,,assa-
chusetts cost of living commission. It
goes As follows:
1T seems to me that the elimination
of waste is nearly impossible in house
holds where there are numerous serv-
ants: at least. I have found It so,
with only one, and the waste rises in
geometrical progression with the num-
Der employed. have now been doing
my W cooking for nearly a year and
| feed my family twice as we'll on
about two-thirds the cost. A large
part of the saving comes in the eco
nomlcal use of meat. | make a de-
liclous dinner with a few scraps of
meat that a cook would give to the
dog.
Then | depend a good deal on
soups. which I invent to suit my
larder. A few cold baked beans, with
a little tomato and a bit of meat on a
bone, or a little left over gravy. make
a soup that all eat with much pleasure
and 1t IS so nourishing that it goes far
to make the dinner. Most people do
not understand how different a O
IS when it has simmered a good many
hours. The soup that has been boiled
fast a couple of hours will taste fiat
and unlnteresting. whereas the same
soup five hours later will have such
q delicious blend Of havors that all
you know Is that 1t is nice without
being able to distinguish the ingre-
dents. Again It Is time that counts.
Cooks waste the coffee and tea hor-
ribly. Mix the coffee with cold water
the night before with an eggshell
and bring it to a boil in the morning
and you do not need a great deal for
a good cup of coffee. The tea III the
kitchen is piled into the teapot ind
thrown out with but little of the good
ness extracted. Another frightful
waste IS the coal. ! use less than
half as much as any girl l ever had
and my stove bakes better. | never
complain OF the draught, as she does
or did after burning all the goodness
out Of her coal in the first hour after

Had Money in Cumps,

Charles H. Rosenberg of Bavaria
had humps on his shoulders, elbows,
and hips when he arrived here from
Hamburg on the Kaiserin Auguste Vic
tOria. In fact. there was a series Of
smaller Jumps along his spine, much
like a mountain range. as it is present
ed on a bas-relief map.
The Jumps were about the size Of
good Oregon apples, and as Rosen-
berg passed before the immigration
doctor for observation, the doctor said
softly to himself, See that lump"
Then he asked Mr.. Rosenberg to step
aside.
You eem like a healthy man."
said the doctor, blu. l cannot pass you
until | know the origin Of those Jumps
on your body" "Ah, it is not a sick
ness" laughed the man from Bavaria.
Those swellings is money"
Taking off his coat he broke open a
sample lump and showed that it On
tanned $500 in American bank notes.
He informed the doctor that he had
1000 in all, with which he was 60
ing to purchase an apple orchard in
Oregon.
He was admitted to the country

BREEDING FOR SUMMER EGGS
Farmer Who Has Part of Flock Lay.
ing In Winter and Rest in Hot
Weather Makes Money.
iBy NJ. C..

Nearly everybody wants winter
eggs, but why not have our hens lay
through the summer months as well?
Chickens of a good many breeds
hatch in February, and ought to be-
gin laying the latter part of June or
early in July, just when the winter
layers are going off the job.
Pullets that commence laying about
this time are not likely to mCult very
heavily the first year, and if they
are we'll cared for they will lay right
along through the summer months
and we'll into the winter.
Of course, the demand for eggs is
much heavier In the winter than the
summer, but then, too, the supply is
greater. The farmers wife who will
have part of her tlocks laying during
the summer months, will find she can
arrange with customers in town to
supply them with eggs all the year
around at a fixed price.
This is the kind of egg business
which pays best. The greatest profits
are made by selling direct to the Gus
toner always. but to do this one must
have a supply all the year around, and
chicks Matched in April and May do
not begin to lay until late in the fall,
and then usually stop laying early in
the summer.
OF course, in the northern climate it
Is not as easy to raise young chicks in
the late winter months, but If a warn
broOder house is provided and special
attention is given them, the young
STEERS will grow about as we'll as
though Matched in late spring.
In the south the chickens may cas-
lily be raised earlier.
An abundance of litter should be
provided, and a large box filled with
dry earth and sand should always be
available for the youngsters to exer-
else their scratching propensities.
A good plan for winter Matched
chicks is tho deep feeding method.
This method consists of strewing a
litter of fine chaff on the floor or in a
comparatively thick layer, and scat
tering a layer of chopped corn and
wheat, then another layer of chaff,
and alternating until the mass is five
or six inches deep.
Placed in a warm, sunny corner of
the brooder house, the young chicks
will find plenty Of exercise in digging
for this feed, and experiments have
shown that results obtained from this
method are excellent.
When spring comes along, the
young chicks can be turned on the
range until they have acquired full
strength and plumage. and by the mid.
die of June will be in excellent lay
ing condition.
For this method Of producing sum.
mer eggs, the best laying breed
should he, selected.
Within our knowledge a young
wGnan in Illinois adopted this plan
with three settings of white Plymouth
Rock eggs which Matched February
10th. The pullets began laying June
25th, and produced the regular sup
ply Of eggs all through the summer
months. They wintered in very good
condition and laid regularly up to
May 1st, the next spring, when they
began to fall off.
The next winter, however, they be-
gan laying the early part of October,
and made as good records as any 9TH
err birds on the place.

GUlNEAS DEvOUR MANY BUGS
Enjoy Better Reputation as Insect Do.
stroyers Than Thieving Crow
Good Egg-Layers.
(By \. J. Lego

wy .. -. LEIINI.j
Some people object to the noise
which guineas make and their wild
nature, but as summer %egg-layers,
guinea hens are hard to beat.
We have three guinea hens and a
cock that have the range of the fields.
and they are the best insect destroy
ers that we can have on the farm.
They have a better reputation with
us as insect destroyers than the thiev.
ing crow which some writer's com.
mend SO highly for the bugs and
worms they eat, and they also pay a
handsome profit in eggs for any grain
they may eat.
The guinea hens lay an 6 each
day for several months at a time.
We have a brood of young guineas
that are growing ~nicely-they are a
cross between the pearl and the white
guinea, and are growing better than
We ever got either full blood to do.
| eve liked the Idea of crossing
breeds, but a cross seems to increase
the vitality Of the guinea.
Some have trouble finding the
guinea nests, but u g%uineas have
never gone far from the house to
make their nests. Sometimes they
lay in the hen nests in the poultry
house.
They range long distances from the
house during the day in search Of
food, but come neal the house to lay.

Take Pride in Your Stock.

The proportion of live stock really
we'll grown is not large. This is not
81 much because of the lack of food
as the lack of those nice little atten.
lions SO necessary to the proper utili.
cation of food, such as feeding it i'll
a palatable condition and at regular
times. The average owner does not
take the interest that he ought to.
When he takes a pride in his stock he
is sure to give it close attention, and
with close attention comes success.
Such a taste can be cultivated In the
same way as any other taste or liking.

Fidelity to Parole

Judge Grain Of the Court of Gen.

its summons came III men and wom.

Of whom was a victor over some form
OF temptations; an example of what
human faith can do to help human
weakness to redeem itself and be
strong
Each of the company had been con-.
victed CT some first ofense against
the law, and each had been permitted
to go out on parole Of future good
behavior. Each had kept the faith.
The word was as good as a bond.
Those who might have gone down in
the struggle had found a way to rise
and fight again. They we're all able
to report good work done and bright
prospects ahead.
Time was when no one was trusted
on his word save men Of high degree.
Fidelity to parole was deemed q
~princely virtue. Perhaps it is. Thers
was nothing in Judge Grains recep
