MEMORY MAIL COURSE
MAKES HIM LOSE WAY

MILWAUKEE,. Wis, Dec. 12.-
Frank Schmidt. IS years old. lost his
memory because he took a mail
course intended to strengthen that
portion of the mind.
At least. that is what the youth de-
clared to physicians at Emergency
hospital after he had been brought
there for observation.
Schmidt was found acting strange
ly on the street. A patrolman ques-
toned him. Schmidt told the Off
Ger that he was on his way to work,
and had forgotten which direction his
place of employment was in. Neither
could he remember where he worked
or what he did
1t developed later that the young
man was employed as elevator mar
but two blocks away from the scene
Of his loss of memory. The police.
men decided that Schmidt needed ex
animation and had him removed II

OSTE(PATA|C HINTS
Natural Control of the BOdy's Chem
iStry.

The osteopathic physician not only
agrees with the physiolo yist In the
physiologist's chemical view of the
body and administers 70 ective drugs,
but he goes farther. He uses the
chemistry that is natural 10 the body
to restore to the body the very chem
ical equilibrium which the body
through whatever fault or defect, has
lost. Under his fingers he has the
wonderful keyboard of the nervous
system, with its nerve fibres COM
.nunicating directly or indirectly with
every minute part and cell Of the body
and under the normalizing impulse
thus given. the organs and parts OF
the body that are out of chemical
equilibrium leap in response. No &C
tive drug is needed to hasten or re-
tard the marvellous work going on ir
these chemical factories. The nerve
is the master tissue" and the othel
tissues are its slaves. The osteopatf
controls the nerves. That Is the Sc
cret. Osteopathic Health.

LOCAL GROWN WHEAT
BEATS CANADA TESTS
GLUTEN PERCENTAGE INCREAS.
ED By UMATILLA COUN-
TY SOIL.
George Peringer and Others VIII Use
saskatchewan Seed to Meet Demand
by Mills-Means Ten Cents Increase
i'm Price per Bushel.

Some interesting facts regarding
the percentage of gluten in imported
Canadian wheat and in local wheat
imported from Canada for seed pur-
poses last year We're brought to light
here yesterday. The showing indi-
Gates the wheat in question does even
better here than in Canada.
The first wheat was brought here
year ago by George Peringer and
was secured from the man who raised
the famous Saskatchewan wheat tina,
took the $1,000 prize at the New York
agricultural show. A small lot of the
wheat was raised last summer by Mr..
Peringer and being tested at the Wal
ter's mill showed percentage of So
per cent gluten, a remarkably high
test when it Is knowS the ordinary
club wheat tests from II to 2S per
cent.
With some other local farmers Mr..
Peringer this fall imported a carload
of the Canadian wheat for seed. Yes
terday some samples from this new
wheat were tested at the mill, one lot
testing 45 per cent and another lot
46 per cent gluten. Hence it appears
that this particular variety of wheat
runs higher in gluten when raised in
Umatilla county than when raised in
Canada, a good tribute to the wheat
growing powers of Umatlla county
soil.
Some idea of what it means to
raise wheat that will test high in glu,
| ten may be had from the fact COM
plant was made this year that our
wheat in common with other wheat OF
| the inland empire was running low
| in gluten. This is particularly OBJ
/ jectionable to the mills, Fred Walters
| saying he cannot market flour unless
| it be made from wheat with good
/ gluten test. Wheat that will test W
| to 40 or so per cent in gluten should
| be worth 10 cents per bushel more
| than ordinary club. hence the import
ed seed and the effort to increase the
gluten percentage.
