missionary and secretary Of the Kan
sas Live Stock association, is sending
out letters to members of the organi-
zation in every county in Kansas,
asking them to report prices consum-
ers pay for meats from retail dealers,
and what the retail dealer pays for
the meat on the block.

ters to a number of packers asking
them for the prices which they re-
ceive wholesale for meats. He is
gathering data to determine who is

ducts. He will make public state
ment of the findings.
Mr.. Mercer says the blame for the
high prices of meats has been laid on
the farmers; that the general de-
fense for the high prices is set up that
the farmers are making the big pro-
fit. Mr.. Mercer believes this Is
wrong.

BUSINESS WOMEN
A Lunch Fit for a King.

An active and successful young
lady tells her food experiences:
Some years ago I suffered from
nervous prostration, induced by con-
tinuous brain strain and improper
food, added to a great grief.
'I was ordered to give up my work,
as there was great danger Of my mind
failing me altogether. My stomach
was in bad condition nervous dyspep-
sia, I think now) and when Grape
Nuts food was recommended to me, ]
had no faith in 1t. However, l tried
It, and soon there was marked I'M
provement in my condition.
81 had been troubled with faint
spells, and had used a stimulant to
revive me. 1 found that by eating
Grape-Nuts at such times l was re-
lieved and suffered no bad effects,
which was a great gain. AS to my
other troubles-nervous prostration,
dyspepsia, etc.-on the Grape-Nuts diet
they soon disappeared.
Il wish especially to call the atten-
ton Of office girls to the great benefit
1 derived from the use of Grape-Nuts
as a noon luncheon. 1 was thoroughly
tired of cheap restaurants and ordin-
ary lunches, and so made the expert
ment of taking a package of Grape
Nuts food with me, and then slipping
out at noon and getting a nickers
worth of sweet cream to add to 1t.
81 found that this simple dish, fin
ished of with an apple, peach, orange,
or a bunch of grapes made lunch fit
for a king, and one that agreed with
me perfectly.
81 throve so on my Grape-Nuts diet
that did not have to give up my work
at all, and in the two years have had
only four lost days charged up against
me.
Let me add that your suggestions
in the little book, Road to Wellville.'

cially to women" Name given by

Won't Hold Fees in Escrow.

E. ]. Smiley, secretary of the Kan
sas Grain Dealers association, an
nounced that it had been determined
to not collect and hold in escrow.
pending the present litibation over the
grain inspection law, the inspection
fees of grain shipments from Kansas
to Kansas City, Mo. Originally it
was planned to have the 'man to
whom grain was sold in Kansas City
to take from the payment for the
grain inspection fees, and turn them
over to trustees appointed to hold the
fees in escrow until the litigation over
the present law was completed. But
this idea was given up at a meeting
held recently. Should the state fin
ally win out, it will have to MIKE col
lections from the farmers and pro
ducers who shipped the grain.
