DAY IN DA NEWPORT

: Perthe will steam down the east coast
of South America with the principal
stops at Bahia and Rio Janeiro. Brazil.
I He expects TO be gone six weeks alto
| gether. IL is believed that there is an
Z excellent chance to sell a great part of
/ tn Pleasant Valley crop in South
America. Up 10 the present time the
onions have been exported to but two
I countries, Germany and Cuba. Two
years ago ten carloads were sold to
the kaiser's government for the use
Of the German army. A year ago four
cars We're shipped to Havana. II had
been planned to ship to Germany
again last fall but the war came on
shortly before the harvest and the
risk OF having a cargo confiscated
called of this plan. Then there was
sufficient demand for all of the crop in
the United States. Up to the present
time practically all of the onions rails
ed here have been sold to exporters in
the gulf states and by them sent to
various South American countries.
About the only part of the country to
export is South America and very lit
tie competition is expected from that
quarter. Last year the average price
OF the crop was 50 per hundred. 1t is
believed that at least SO per hundred
can be secured this year. owing to the
fact that the bulk of the present sup
ply comes from Spain and the Canary
Islands and the price has been boost
ed skyward by the hazardous CONNER
cial situation arising from the present
war.

SENSE ABOUT FOOD.
Facts Worth KNOWING.

IL is a serious question sometimes TO
know just what to eat when a persons
stomach is out of order and most foods
cause trouble
GrapeNuts food can be taken at
any time with the certainty that il
viii digest. Actual experience of peo-
pie is valuable to anyone interested.
a Terre Haute woman writes: had
suffered with indigestion for about
Tour years, ever since an attack of ty-
phoid fever. and at times could eat
nothing but the very Hghtest food,
and then suffer so with my stomach /
would wish l never had TO eat any
thing.
i was urged to try Grape-Nuts and
since using 1t l do not have to starve
myself any more, but l can eat it at
any time and feel nourished and salts
ned. dyspepsia is a thing of the past,
and l am now strong and we'll.
My husband also had an experience
with Grape-Nuts. He was very weak
and sickly one spring, and could not
attend TO his work. He was put under
the doctors care but medicine did not
seem to do him any good until he be-
gan TO leave of ordinary food and use
Grape-Nuts. 1t was surprising to see
the change in him. He grew better
right on. and naturally he has none but
words OF praise for Grape-Nuts.
Our boy thinks he cannot eat
meal without Grape-Nuts. and he learns
so fast at school that his teacher com.
ments on it I am satisfied that it is
because OF the great nourishing ele-
ments in Grape-Nuts."
This mother is right. Grape-Nuts
