GOOD HARVEST ARE ASSuSED
MARKETS SHOW Eff.
FECTS OF PROMISING YIELD.
Experts Say Crops, Barring Wheat
Are Largest in
Years.

Chicago, July 12.-Abundant rain
fall throughout the country gives pro,
mise of bumper crops and the practi,
cal effects already are being mani,
tested in the local market. Vegetables
of all kinds are selling SO per cent
lower than the prices quoted a year
ago, and a still further decline is
expected by dealers.
Experts report that with the excep.
ton of wheat, grain crops of all kinds
are larger than in several years.
The potato crop is unprecedented
this year and as a result there has
been a big drop in price to the con-
sumner. Potatoes which sold for $525
a barrel a. year ago may now be OBJ
tanned here for $2.75 barrel. There
has been corresponding reduction
in the price of most of the other
staple vegetables.
The fruit crop appears to be as
promising from the consumers point
OF view as vegetables and cereals.
The peach crop this year promises to
be the largest in the history of the
country according to experts and this
city is now being flooded with a sup
ply from the South at reasonable
prices.
One commission dealer expressed
the opinion that the high water mark
in the price of provisions of all kinds
had been reached and that gradual
reductions in the price of all vege-
tables and fruits might be expected
within a few weeks. He declared that
the most expensive cuts of fresh meats
may not sell much lower for some
time, but that even the price of these
would be reduced before the end of
the summer.
Notwithstanding plentiful harvests
of important crops of the country
indicated by the July crop report of
the department of agriculture will ex-
tend also to the minor crops to a great
extent
Conditions of all crops were mate
rally better on July / than on the
same date last year. The crop re-
porting board estimates they are So
per cent better. Comparing their con-
dition with the average of recent
years, it is somewhat lower, about
IL per cent.

A lady changed from her old way Of
eating Grape-Nuts, and says: .D
For about three years had been
a great sufferer from indigestion.
After trying several kinds of medicine,
the doctor would ask me to drop off
potatoes, then meat, and so on, but in
few days that craving, gnawing feel
ing would start up, and would vomit
everything ate and drank.
when started on Grape-Nuts, vom-
iting stopped, and the bloated feeling
which was SO distressing disappeared
entirely.
MY mother was very much bothered
with diarrhoea before commencing the
Grape-Nuts, because her stomach was
so weak she could not digest her food.
Since using Grape-Nuts food she is
well, and says she don't think she
could do without 1t.
1T is a great brain restorer and
nerve builder, for can sleep as sound
and undisturbed after supper of
Grape-Nuts' as in the old days when
could not realize what they meant by

cine SO beneficial to nerves and brain
as q good nights sleep, such as YOU
can enjoy after eating Grape.Nuts."
