not keep pace with the development
natural to demands OF AGO. 0 new peo-

be- built to take care of the country
and capital had not made sufficient

But the crop Of 1913 will restore

natural and reasonable development
will continue.
Owing to a wet fall In 1912. and a
heavy snowfall during the past winter
there was q large area which 1t was
difficult to seed ut the usual time the
past spring. Therefore as a general
thing seeding was later than usual. "a

seeded In May was already ripening,

country had ever produced; the heads

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 cot.
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 1t, in q letter. He
says:
For about forty years, j have had
Indigestion and stomach trouble in
various forms. During the last 25
years I would not more than get over
one spell OF bilious collie until another
would be upon me.
The best doctors ] could get and
all the medicines / could buy, only
gave me temporary relief.
Change OF climate was tried with
out results. I could not sleep nights,
had rheumatism and my heart would
palpitate at times so that 1t seemed
IT would jump out of my body.
II came to the conclusion that there
was no relief for me and that ! was
about wound up, when ! saw a Postum
advertisement. I had always been a
coffee drinker, and got an idea from
the ad. that maybe coffee was the
cause of my trouble,
began to 3 Postum instead of
coffee and in less than three weeks /
Ielt like a new man. The rheumatism
left me, and i have never had a spell
OF bilious collie since.
MY appetite is good. my digestion
was better and ! a do o
work than before for 40 years.
II haven't tasted coffee since l be-
gan with Postum. My wife makes 1t
according to directions and I relish 1t
as well as I aver did coffee, and / was

The company first began the manu-

with high grade materials and an un-
wavering determination to produce
an article of superior quality have
created a demand which necessitated

Oats, which are but a fair crop, will
