A TREAT FOR KEOKUK
HOUSEKEEPERS

Keokuk housekeepers are delighted
with the delicious. nut-like flavor OF
Minnesota" Macaroni Many say
they never knew macaronl could
taste so good and be so firm and nu-
tritious and flavory as the Mime
sofa" Macaroni, now sold by leading
keokuk grocers.
There is a big difference in maca-
roni as sold in the stores. "Minneso-
ia" Macaroni is made from the VERY
BEST DURUM wheat with ALL the
wonderfully nourishing Gluten left in.
1t is easily digested, very nourishing,
and costs only about 1 cent a dish.
Try the handy Minnesota" Cut
Macaroni, which is cut into uniform
pieces-it cooks more evenly and is
quicker to prepare.-Ady.

Banks Will Refuse

NEW YORK. May 1.-The national
banks of New York. handling large
deposits of government money, will
refuse to pay interest on active &C.
counts as ordered by Secretary OF
the Treasury McAdoo, according to
officials today. None of the officers
of the big financial institutions, how.
ever, was willing to be quoted per,
sonally as antagonistic to the treas
ury departments program.
The concensus of opinion advanced
by half dozen leading bankers was
that the government had no right 70
expect interest on active accounts,
against which checks were constantly
being drawn.

SAVE THE ALFALFA LEAVES.
Sixty Per Cent. of the Feeding value of Alfalfa in the Leaves-Hay Should be Cut at Right Time and Cured so as to Preserve
 the Leaves.

Of the entire alfalfa plant, accord ing to Kansas bulletin 155, the stalk comprises 60 per cent. and the lear 40 per cent, whereas the quantity or the protein in the stalk is only 4O per cent, while the protein in the leaf IS 60 per cent. Moreover only 20 per cent. of the fat is to be found in the stalk, while 80 per cent. is in the leaf. It is, therefore, very important that alfalfa be harvested at the proper time, and carefully handled so that all the leaves will be saved.
 When possible to do so 1t is best to cut alfalfa late in the afternoon or evening. Dew or rain on the freshly cut alfalfa will not injure 1t. Where a tedder is used, it should be started in the morning as soon as most of the dew Is off and before there is any dan ger of knocking off the leaves. It IS often advisable to go over 1t more than once.
 Alfalfa hay is harvested and cured in much the same way as clover, ex-
