HOLLANDS WAR BREAD
MUST BE CHANGED

THE HAGUE, June 14.-Holland's
war bread, which has been in use for
the last few weeks, will have to be
changed. The Holland populace says
so, the physicians of Holland says 80
and the government is expected to
agree.
Unlike the war bread of all other
European countries, the Holland
bread was made of flour which con
tanned the husks of the wheat. Even
the sturdy Dutch stomach WAS unable
to endure the scrapings and scratch
ings Of the wheat husks and shortly
the physicians of Dutch cities and
towns had rush of patients whose
digestive organs had gone wrong.
The doctors quickly traced the trouble
to the war bread.

Excellent Editorial in the

The people of the San Luis val

more kindly feeling for Denver anil
particularly for the Denver News
for the excellent editorial in behalf
of these sections in its recent publ
cation Of an article "Opening a New

The San Luis valley as well as the
San Juan have been inclined to feel
that the Denver interests have been
too much centered in that part Of the
state to realize that in southwestern
Colorado is rich and beautiful ter
ritory that viii under favorable con-
ditions be Of great value in many
ways to Denver.
Our people have been inclined to
believe that certain Of the Denver
press while doing everything possi-
Bile to get business from the San
Juan people have not in the least
been interested in our welfare.
