Wellmans findings in regard to
white bread are of special interest
in connection with Littles reports re-
garding the occurrence of beri-beri
or progressive malnutrition in Lab
rador among people who, at certain
seasons live almost exclusively on
white flour bread of the refined type
imported from Canada and the United
States.
Funk refers to the many recent dis
coVeries in regard to the Importance
of certain minute quantities of certain
substances in the food, the lack of
which entails disturbances in me-
tabolism.
He says, "These special substances
may be destroyed by leeching out and
by boiling; by carrying desiccation
too far, especially in food for cattle,
and by discarding the outer cover of
grains, especially rice, corn, wheat
and rye"
The conclusions of Funk are elabo-
rately confirmed by many experiences
in the feeding of horses for vitality
and strength and the feeding of cows
for milk production.
In an examination of a number of
dairies in New York State and sew
eral in Illinois, including dairies
where certified milk was produced
under the auspices of county medical
societies, I found that cows, i'm
properly nourished, continued to yield
milk of poor quality until their tis-
sues were exhausted, where they were
shipped to the uninspected slaughter
houses of the State and there killed
and dressed for the retail butcher and
bologna maker.
Through the demands of lactation
and insufficient mineral food of as
similable nature their tissues are
actually consumed in milk production.
which brings about a condition of
emaciation, anaemia and impaired vi
tality favorable to the development of
tuberculosis. The dairy COW suffers
the same experience as that suffered
by the human family and for the same
reasons. We shall see.

SIMPLE WAY TO

There is one sure way that has
never failed to remove dandruff at
once, and that is to dissolve it, then
you destroy it entirely. To do this,
just get about four ounces of plain.

store (this is all you will need), apply
it at night when retiring; use enough
gently with the finger tips.
BY morning, most If not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will completely

of the scalp will stop instantly, and
your hair will be fluffy, lustrous,
glossy, silky and soft and look and feel
a hundred times better.

THREE CLUBS IN NATIONAL
OTHER TEAMS ADMIT 1T
BY Mark Shields

BY Mark Shields
The National league race is
three-club affair between Brooklyn,
Boston and the Phillies. Brooklyn
has a wel-balanced combination,
employing teamplay for all it is
worth. Boston has a fine pitching
staff that is holding up the club, and
the Phils have bit Of both, mixed
with confidence gained in their pen
nant-winning fight last season.
Brooklyn leads its two competitors
by three games and a half. But it
is no copper-lined cinch the Dodgers
can maintain this advantage. The
Braves have played improved ball in
the last few weeks. The Phils have
made the greatest strides of any of
the trio.
Moran kept in the fight up until
the last three weeks with but one de-
pendable pitcher, Alexander. Alex,
pitching the best bail of his career,
was good for a win in nearly every
series. He is after a new record of
games taken.
But recently Demaree and Mayer
have come to his assistance If they
are not flashing and can pitch a little
better than average ball, the Pills
cannot be counted out.
These opinions have been gener-
ally held among fans for some
time, and now the athletes of other
clubs are about ready to admit their
strength. 1t is evident in the de-
pertinent of other teams on the field.
The Giants, who thought for a time
they had shot at the flag, are about
ready to concede themselves
through. Their play indicates it. An
air Of listlessness and a lack of de-
termination that are never found in
champions studs the work of the
New Workers.
As for the four western entries, In
Guiding our own Cubs, they have
