THE UNIVERSAL FOOD
One Article Of Diet That Is
Used in Every Home.

Ia ali parts of the world Oatmeal
has become a staple article Of diet
II T.. evident therefore, that everyone
saould learn all there is TO know about
this universal fool
IN the first pld.,, most people will
be greatly surprised to learn that or
diuary oatmeal or rolled oats is real
ly not digesdble until it has been
cooked for about sixteen hours-and
even then much of the food value is
lost.
This would be serious matter were
it not for the discovery Of a process by
which carefully-sa leeJcd white oats are
cookcd at a verE Nigh temperature m-
der steam pressure for three solid
hour. producing what is known as
4 % Oatmeal This process bursts the
korncIs et the starch, changing them
into doAriaized starch, which is easily
digcsted by the most delicate slom-
ach.
A. a result OF this wonderful pro
cess, 10 oatmeal is not only much
NOR. palatable, digcstibIo and uutri-
uOuS than ordinary oatmeal, but can
be made ready for thc table with only
t"GtE minutes cooking making il a
great convenience for housewives
Insist then upon H-O. It's worth the
difference. Your grocer sells it Adv

SAVINGS ARE SWEPT
AWAY BY FLICKER
OF A LITTLE MATCH

Barney Woods savings of half Il
year arc gone, swept away by the
flicker of a match.
Toilins all summer peddling Ncsc-
tables from his ranch near Calipatria
to nearby ranches, Woods amassed
nearly S3oo. lie had no faith in banks
and during the summer as the little
pile of silver and bills grew, he hid
it safely.
When The season was over Woods
changed The silver into bills and
stuffed the wad into the tank of a
lantern. But he became harassed by
the fear that someone might steal the
lantern and with it the bills and. after
seeking al new hiding place for his
money, Withdrew it from the lantern
and stuffed il in a wood stove.
Woods did all his cooking on an
oil stove, but cooler weather came and
the blaze from the small stove nc
longer sufficed to heat the house. The
stove in which the money was hidden
was partially filled with wood ant
paper and during a moment of forget
fulues-, when the cold became oppres
sivo, Woods tossed lighted match int
the stove. He did not discover hi.
mistake until the flames had swep
away lis savings.

Our Main Business

try than are the currents of the at

The rapid decline of our position a

checked little by the tremendous ef-
forts made TO induce a better agricul-

soil. Federal and state governments,
stirred by the earuestucss Of ndivid-

great railroad companies, are helping

already feels some benefit from this
attempt, pitifullv small although the
results of il seem TO 70 man who goes

But nothing can prevent the bracG-

the chances are that before the farm
ars could be educated to The point Of
doing it our population would double
also.
1t follows that on our other great
natural resources our foreign trade
must continue to be based. But we
cannot expect to retain practical mo-
uopoly Of the production Of cotton
which we once enjoyed. In the pro-
duction of copper. petroleum, pig iron
and steel We are far ahead of other
countries, not alone because of skill
OF success in manufacturing, but be
cause nature gave US raw material in
abundance elsewhere unknown. But
here also, if we measure our progress
by that of Germany. we shall feel less
like sclf-congratulation. In iron pro
duction, for example, DR.. Helfferieh
finds that the percentage of increase
between 1887 and 1911 in the United
states was 1855 and in Germany 287
In steel our percentage of increase
from 1886 to 1910 WAS 91O.3 as against
1925 for Germany
ii is clear that il we are to hold our
own We must meet this competition in
production which is translated instant
ly into competition in foreign trade.
Losing gradually The advantages that
our position and resources have given
US Up to date, nothing but deeper
wisdom and Il keener sense of justice
toward all the factors that must unite
