LIGHT BREAKS IN
Thoughtful Farmer Learns About
Coffee.

Many people exist in a more or less
haZy condition and 1t often takes years
before they realize that tea and cof-
fee are often the cause of the cloudi-
ness, and that there is a simple way
to let the light break in.
A worthy farmer had such an exper-
ience and tells about it, in letter. He
says:
For about forty years, 1 have had
indigestion and stomach trouble in
various forms. During the last 25
years would not more than get over
one spell of bilious collie until another
would be upon me.
"The best doctors l could get and
all the medicines l could buy, only
gave me temporary relief.
Change of climate was tried with.
out results. l could not sleep nights,
had rheumatism and my heart would
palpitate at times 80 that it seemed
1t would jump out Of my body.
Il came to the conclusion that there
was no relief for me and that l was
about wound up, when saw Postum
advertisement. had always been a
coffee drinker, and got an idea from
the ad. that maybe coffee was the
cause of my trouble.
Il began to use Postum instead Of
coffee and in less than three weeks
felt like a new man. The rheumatism
left me, and have never had spell
of bilious collie since.
my appetite is good, my digestion
never was better and l can do more
work than before for 40 years.
Il haven't tasted coffee since be-
gan with Postum. My wife makes it
according to directions and relish it
as well as l ever did coffee, and was
certainly slave to Coffee

Postum comes in two forms:
Regular Postum-must be we'll boiled.
Instant Postum is a soluble powder.
A teaspoonful dissolves quickly in a
cup of hot water and, with the addi-
tion of cream and sugar, makes de.
licious beverage instantly.

expected that when the money bags
were tightened that this would be the
case. The fact is that money could
not keep pace with the development
natural to demands of 100000 new peo-
pie year. Towns and cities had to
be built to take care of the country
and capital had not made sufficient
preparation.
But the crop Of 1918 will restore
conditions to normal state, and the
natural and reasonable development
will continue.
Owing to a wet fall in 1912, and a
heavy snowfall during the past winter
there was large area which it was
difficult to seed at the usual time the
past spring. Therefore as, a general
thing seeding was later than usual. A
trip through the country in the early
part of August showed that this was
no drawback. Wheat that had been
seeded in May was already ripening,
and had stand fully as good as any
country had ever produced; the heads

1918 per cent. in the decade.
Coming back to the crops of 1918, it
may safely be said that the yield Of
wheat in Saskatchewan will be about
115,000,000 bushels, with an average
yield of over 20 bushels per acre.
Oats, which are but a fair crop, will
yield an average equal to that of last
year. Barley is excellent, while flax,
Of which the average is considerably
less than last year, will produce a
greater average than for years. What
is said of these crops will apply to all
districts.

Unless some dire calamity occurs
in the next few days farmers of the
