Beware the Cold Storage Egg! In his

work on food and dietetics Doctor Robert Hutchison says, "the absence of carbo- hydrates prevents eggs from being in any sense a complete food" This refers to the fresh egg - the egg with a clean bill of health. What would the Doctor say of the modern cold storage egg? At present prices two eggs cost ten ents-and the egg is not a complete foodl Some thing must be eaten with 1t to supply the needed carbo- hydrates. Two Shredded Wheat Biscuits, with cream or milk, make a complete, perfect meal at a cost of four or five cents. Made at Niagara Falls. N. Y.

 DEVELOPMENTS IN
 ALABAMA O|L FIELD
Gulf Producing Company Takes Over Three Other Companies With Large
 Holdings

An important event in the development in Alabama for oil was the consolidation of four of the leading oil companies. The Gulf Producing company has entered into agreements to purchase and absorb all of the following companies: The Ala bama Mississippi Oil, Gas and Pipe Line company Greenleaf Oil Gas and Mining company and the s. A. Hobson Oil, Gas and Pipe Line company. All of these companies are large holders of oil and gas acreage in northwestern Alabama.
 The Alabama Mississippi Oil Gas and Pipe Line company owns leases covering oil, gas and mineral rights on some 52,OOO acres located in Marion, Lawrence Franklin Winston. Colbert, Fayette and Lamar counties and is now drilling we'll at Atwood in Franklin county. This No. 1 well has now reached depth of 2e0o feet, and pay sand is expected to be encountered at 2600 feet. The well has been taken over by the Gulf Producing company, and will be rushed to comple- ton
 The GreenIeaf Oil, Gas and Mining company is the owner of about 12, 900 acres of selected oil and gas territory in Ma iron and Franklin counties, all of which has been sold to the Gulf Producing com pany.
 The s. A. Hobson Oil Gas and Pipe Line company is one of the older corn- panies in the field, having pioneered for some years in securing the acreage in this territory. The acreage of the Hobson company, which will go into the Gulf Producing company aggregates between 50,000 and 60000 acres
 This will bring the total acreage of the Gulf Producing company up to over 125,- 900 acres of oil and gas territory, covering an area of nearly 200 square miles, The Gulf Producing company has re- gently entered the field, it's first carload of machinery having arrived at Hackle- burg, Marion county this week. Other cars of machinery and casing are en route, and an active campaign of actual development through the drilling of wells is being inaugurated.
 C. A. Owens, chairman of the board of directors of the company, stated yester- day he believed that within the next year Alabama would record oil history There has been considerable test work done in Marion county for several months, unknown to the public. Two test wells have been bored and the out come of these tests was what induced the Gulf Producing company to-enter the field
 F. B. Grindell, r. P Jackson and c. A. Owens are the officials in charge of the Alabama development

Insurance Men Here
 Protest Against Tax

Acting upon their understanding that 80 per cent of the life insurance com panies in the country are mutual corpor- ations, and the excess profits tax will be burden to the policy yholderes, mum bers of Birmingham insurance men have wired to Washington protesting against the proposed taxation of life insurance companies under the excess profits bill, now before the Senate.

GREAT MOVEMENTS

''You say, 'impossible? Nothing is inn possible with God. Don't you get dizzy sometimes to see how fast we are nov ing? Sit steady in the boat brother, and watch and you will see Gods hand in 1t all. Dirty politics and cruel, relentless war; He overrules for the advancement of His kingdom. This governor business looks mighty big to us, and so it is; but now insignificant when we compare it to the great world movements now going on before our eyes.
 "Let the voters of Alabama make up their minds to cast their votes only for officers, from governor down, who will most likely be friendly to the ideal pro gramme outlined above, and will be .content to remain the humblest private citizen in the state."
