DRAW WEALTH FROM FARMS
Enormous Sun, Annually Gathered in by TiIiers cf the Soil in the
 United States.

From Farms in 1914 the United States produced a yield worth slO .OoO,- 00o.oO0. Could cotton have been mar. keted as usual the total would have been close to half a billion more. Ten billion dollars representing honest work, Ten billion dollars untainted moneyi And going mostly into the pockets of the workers themselves, with little reaching the purses of labor exploiters. The beautiful thing about this great item Of our national wealth next to its cleanliness, is the fact that it can be increased indefinitely by a more general adoption of scientific az. riculture. In fifteen years it has been doubled; and still. on our new soil. We farm only a third as effectively as do many foreign peoples on soil cen. turies longer in use. The forest, cut unwisely, is gone. The mineral, once mined, IS not renewable. But on his broad acres the tiller of the soil can take and take again; and though he has to fertilize, the more he does it the more he earns. So. come war. come pestilence. come anything but conti. nent-wide drought. here is broad base for our future welfare. upon which we can build expaDdingly and securely. The man with the hoe is, indeed, the best hope of the future.

DIDN'T WANT TO MEET HIM
colored Parsons Description of His Satanic Majesty Brought Converts
 to Mourners' Bench

The late celebrated Peter Vinegar, who in days gone by used to make periodical visits to Danville, says the Advocate, for the purpose of deliver ing his sermons, remarkable on ac count of their startling texts, on one occasion spoke to a large assemblage of the colored population and a few whites at the old colored Methodist church on Walnut street. He arose raised his spectacles from his eyes and said:
 My beloved brederen and sisteren I take my tex dis evenin' in dat DOT ton uv de Scriptur' whar de 'Postle Paul pints his pistol at de 'Phesians. an whar it says, 'Whar de hen scratches dar's de worm, 'cetpin' Ge case whar sum previus hen hay bin dar.'" He then proceeded to tell hi- hearers what a horrible personal ap pearance the devil presented. with the following description: His eyes look like two balls uv fire. his teef like two skinned saplins. his ears hang down like a 'bacCer leaf an his pref smoke like tar kittle." That night Pete- made many converts.

TO RUN MOTORS BY GAS COKE
fnoffensive Fuel, According to Figures, Is Only One-Thirs Cost
 of Psraffin.

In view of the high and increasing cost of motor spirit special interest attaches to an experiment of the Ma tional Steam Car company. which has placed upon the streets of London a motor omnibus adapted to use ordi- nary gas coke as fuel, instead Of par affin, says the Times of that city. The omnibus is equipped with nev form Of multitubular boiler. and it is claimed that the running costs of the gas coke are one-third the cost of paraf- fin The vehicle carries enough coke for a 60-mile journey and the con sumption per mile is four pounds Of coke and one-half gallon of water.
 The roar, flame and smell which are sometimes associated with steam mo- tors are obviated in the coke motor. Prolonged tests were carried out by the chief commissioner of metropol- itan police before the new type was accepted for service. and since it has been running careful observation has been kept
 The omnibus chassis is constructed without a chimney. but chassis with chimney has been designed for com mercial cars, which work under less stringent conditions than those Of the omnibus service.
 The Dewar trophy was awarded to the company by the Royal Automobile club. which regarded the National coke motor trial as the most meritori- ous performance of the year

THE DOCTORS WIFE Agrees With Him About Food.

A trained nurse says: "ln the prac- tice of my profession I have found so many points in favor of Grape-Nuts food that unhesitatingly recommend it to all my patients.
 It is delicate and pleasing to the palate Gan essential in food for the sick) and can be adapted to all ages. being softened with milk or cream for babies Or the aged when deficiency O. teeth renders mastication impossible. For fever patients or those on liquid diet l find Grape-Nuts and albumen water very nourishing and refreshing.
 This recipe is my own idea and is made as follows: Soak a teaspoonful of Grape-Nuts in a glass of water for an hour, strain and serve with the beaten white of an egg and spoonful of fruit juice for favouring. This af lords a great deal of nourishment that even the weakest stomach can assirni- late without any distress.
 My husband is a physician and he uses Grape-Nuts himself and orders it many times for his patients.
 Personally regard dish Of Grape Nuts with fresh or stewed fruit as the ideal breakfast for anyone-well or sick"
 In stomach trouble. nervous prostra- ton. etc. Today trial of Grape-Nuts will usually work wonders toward nourishing and rebuilding and in this way end the trouble. Nlme given by Postum O., Battle Creek. Mich.
