Do farmers eat the proper
sort of food

The farmer of today buys much
larger proportion Of the food that goes
on the table than he did ten years ago.
It's good thing that this is so because
he has a great variety to select from.
He should, however, use great care
IN selecting for the best results in
health and strength.
The widespread tendency in the city
to increase the amount Of Quaker Oats
eaten is due very largely to the recent
demonstrations by scientific men that
the Quaker Oats fed man is the man
with greatest physical endurance and
greatest mental vigor.
Farmers should give this subject
careful thought and should increase
the quantity of Quaker Oats eaten by
themselves, their children and the
farm hands.
The regular size 10c package is not
as convenient for the farmer as the
karge size family package at 25c. 81

OUR BOARD OF TRADE.
PRESIDENT DE BOER'S ENERGY
REMARKED ABOUT.

Boston's Pilgrim Publicity Associa-
ton Sits Up and Takes Notice
MOntpelier's Board OF Trade Motto.
ed mt the Hub-An Association De-
signed to Boom New England
They Should Have Hearty Cooper
alton From All yermonters and
Newspapers.
The Montpelier Board of Trade has
attracted attention in Boston. A rep
resentative of this paper who passed
several days at the HUI, ran on to
the secretary of the Pilgrim Public
ity Association. This association was
men, but it has gradually expanded
till now it is a good healthy organ
ization. Their plan of action is to
boom New England in every way pos
sible. 1t has many prominent Bos-
ton New Englanders among it's MEN,
bership, and is generally extending
it's work among all classes Of New
Englanders at the Hub.
They have a dinner once a month
and speakers talk on subjects per-
tanning to New England of wide in
terest. The secretary, Carroll j.
Swan, Penn Mutual Building, Boston,
is an active newspaper advertising
man. He spoke particularly about
the Montpelier Board of Trade, and
the Journals booming Montpelier,
and the whole State was favorably
commented on. Scrap books are kept,
showing all the articles from YER
mont papers that have been printed
at various times.
1t was certainly an inspiration to
our representative, and shows what
may be done by everlastingly plug
ging for Vermont.
Particularly did Mr.. Swan marvel
at the fact that 100000 could be rails
ed by our local Board of Trade for
upbuilding of Montpelier The public
ity committee, with whom the writ
er talked, paid President DeBoer a
high compliment, and incidentally
mentioned that when such men took
hold of anything it had to go, and
they seemed to think that if more
men like him in Vermont communi-
ties would take off their coats, these
Vermont Boards of Trade would be
better off.
The Pilgrim Publicity Association
has offered, through the Journal rep
resentative, to send good speakers up
here to talk on any subject the Board
of Trade might select. This is GER
tainly showing an interest in our
board, and, in due time, it is hoped to
have two at least of the best speakers
in the association come here and talk
to the board.
In this connection it may be good
time to remark that our Merchants
Day plan is attracting attention
among several Massachusetts COM
munities. Only yesterday the Jour
nal was in receipt of letter from
NewburypCrt, Mass, asking for in
formation, plan of work, and all de-
tails, and this is not the first time
this has happened.
1t can be seen at a glance that the
Montpelier Board of Trade is getting
much attention, even beyond its Dor
ders.
What do you say? Let us boom
Montpelier.

allow my name to be used as one who
can recommend Doans Kidney Pills
highly. Years ago | suffered from an
attack of kidney disease. There was
dull. heavy pain across my kidneys
that bothered me constantly and the
kidney secretions were also irregular
and distressing in passage. Doan's
Kidney Pills, which / procured from
C. Blakely's Drug Store, quickly and
positively disposed of my suffering
and benefited me generally"

WINNING REMNANTS IN
SPRINGTIME.

The baseball manager waved his hand
as he talked to the sporting ed
Then bit the end of a big cigar and
these are the words he said:
We've got team that is sure as
cream from center field to sub.
You'd vainly seek for a spot that's
~eak-there isn't single scrub
We've raked the land with a fine tooth
comb and this bunch will bring
the bunting home
1t stands this way, you say again,
We'll land that pennant in nine
teen ten.
There Spike McGlue from Kalama-
zoo who hit 400 in nineteen
two,
And Mickey James, who played with
Ames and got ten homers in
fourteen games;
Together with Jones whom Cleveland
owns but l got him for sixteen
hundred bones,
And Jocko Reed. who has such speed
that the ball looks like caraway
seed.
When he's on the slab and his arm
amt bad he's got more than
Matty ever had.
Then there's Catcher Flynn, who can
beat Jack Killing. say, 20, he's
got a peachy wing
They have all agreed to let up their
speed SO they won't be copied
by the major league
Just break the news, let the fans en-
thuse, there isn't a chance for
our team to lose"
These things the baseball manager
said in the patient ear of the
sporting ed,
But the manager knew and the edit
Or knew and the public knew
when the story came through
Twas the same old story in the same
old way that managers told in
grandfather's day,
For they all win pennants before the
race, then seven fall down, they
can't stand the pace.
And Spike McGlue of Kalamazoo goes
back to the farm in a week or
two.
While Mickey James will be hopping
trains on a homeward trip to
the Kansas plains,
Then there's Cleveland Jones, who
cost all those bones, he'll be
back at his old Job breaking
stones
While Jocko Reed will uncork his
speed singing "Crullers and
at the village feed
It's the same old dope that the man
ayers spoke so often it's grown
to be one huge joke.
It's the same old dope that the sport
eds wrote when Columbus ar
rived in his scouting boat,
So don't bet your coin on the man.

There are seven others with. Spike
