An improper diet, one-sided one,
is now held to be the cause of pellagra,
one of the dread maladies which has
been increasing in the United States
rapidly during the past few years. A
well-balanced diet, it is said, will cure
it. But the probabilities are that the
people who are afflicted and suscep-
tible to this disease are not in a po-
sitioE to provide themselves with the
diet needed

Coolest weather OF the month is yet

not be just the thing needed.
Our records show a general excess
OF rainfall In all the plains States and

wheat country went into winter guar.
tiers in good condition for making the
1915 crops. Less than usual rain has
been expected for most OF that section
for February 20 to June 20. and there

expected. Some parts OF that great

a general failure is not expected.

change has come. For six months the
great evaporation oyals will be far

will be, during the next six months
as dry as II has been wet during the

This is a matter Of doubly great
importance. Northern Europe Will
not get sufficient moisture for its
crops and the great armies over there
will not have TO contend with wet
weather. India, Southern China and
South Africa will get the moisture on
that side, while on this hemisphere
the precipitation will concentrate

used to rob our producers and put
commissions into the pockets OF grain
brokers.
