BREAD AS ECONOMICAL FOOD
Would Be Used More Extensively lf Home-Baked Variety Was Always
 Good, Say Government Experts.

If home-baked bread were uniformly we'll made, 1t would be used more ex- tensively than at present in place of more expensive foods, say specialists in the United States department Of agriculture, and this would be n dis tinct economy. From the standpoint of nutrition 1t makes very little differ ence whether breadstuffs are served in the form of bread or in the form of breakfast cereals, side dishes with meat, serts.
 A man engaged in moderate muscu- lar work can profltably consume about of a pound q day of breadstuffS in any one of these forms. This quantity is the equivalent of one pound of baked bread As Il matter of fact, however. It is not probable that in the average family this quan- tity is consumed and ths deficiency Is made up by the use of more expensive substances. Of course bread alone Is not sufficient for the maintenance of health, but from both an economical and hygienie point of view should be used more extensively than 1t usually K. declare the experts.

a4I1O/Ha. q S(UJ I 5 Conducted by National Council of the
 Boy Scouts of America)
CALL ISSUED FOR LEADERS

A number of scout officials have been forced to give up active work be cause of their membership in the Ma tional Guard or through enlistment in the officers training corps and other organizations. Undoubtedly a number of men will be drafted in cddition to those who have Already gone into one service or another.
 At recent meeting of the executive board of the Boy Scouts of America 1t was determined to continue as mem bers of the Boy Scouts of America, with the same rank and privileges. all scout officials in government service.
 The national council of the Boy Scouts of America .has issued an ap- peal for 100000 volunteers, eighteen years old and over. to take care of the new recruits which are pouring in. For the last few weeks headquarters has enrolled an average of over 1.500 boys day.
 The scout movement at this time is utilizing all the power of well-organ- ized force to increase food production in the United States. The movement is represented in nearly every city and town of 000 population and over. and as consequence the work of the or ganization will be big factor In the 1917 crop; but the needs of America and her allies at this time are enor- nous, and the leaders of the scout movement are determined to secure leaders to take care of every boy who volunteers.
 Officers of the scout movement point out that there are many patriotic men who want to do their 'blt" but who cannot be accepted for active service nj the front because of physical dis ability or because they have depend ents Many of these men have the necessary qualifications to serve as Scoutmasters. All such are requested to give their names and addresses Tt once to the representative of the Boy Scouts of America in their neighbor hood.
 II was also explained that number of the scout officials are volunteering for active service, and this increases the immediate need for men to take up scouting in order that all troops may haye adequate competent leadership.
 The program for the summer is full of activity and opportunity for real patriotic service.

John Crabtree Says the Money He Paid for Tanlac Was Best Investment He Ever Made
 in His Life.

''I have gained thirtyfour pounds on three bottles of Tanlac and now know what it Is to enjoy life and good health after suffering twenty years said John M, Crabtree, a general merchant at Five Mile Station A. Dallas, Texas.
 T bought my first bottle nearly two years ago" continued Mir. Crabtree, ''and it was the best investment I ever made in my life l began tc improve almost from the start and three bottles simply made me over into new man. l have enjoyed the best of health ever since.
 ''I suffered with catarrh of the stom- ach and indigestion for twenty years and for eighteen months I had to live almost entirely on cereals. My stom- ach was full of gas and I suffered with awful headaches all the time. I was nervous and couldn't sleep. I spent nearly all of one whole year in bed and fell off in weight to one hundred and eighteen pounds.
 After using three bottles of Tanlac. Y had increased in weight from one hundred and eighteen pounds to one hundred and fifty fty-two-making an ac- tual gain of thirtyfour pounds-all my troubles were gone and I was feel ing like a new man.
 Although it has been year ard a half since Tanlac relieved me of my awful catarrhal trouble and indlges- ton, l still retain my increase In weight and feel simply fine all the time. I've been eating anything I want-in fact anything anybody else can-and sleeping like child every night. Being made into strong, healthy man after suffering as long as I did is enough to make me rejoice and I'm glad to indorse Tanlac be- cause I know what it will do"

Scout troops in all parts of the coun- try recently marched to the offices of the mayors of their respective cities and towns, and let the authorities know that they were prepared, by their scout training, to be of such service at home as might be necessary. The serv- ice suggested included messenger work, sending messages by wire, wire less or semaphore. cooperating in the protection of property, assisting relief workers, and so forth. In preparation for any quick call because of an emer- gency, the Scouts everywhere have practiced mobilization.

PROSPECT HILL

Grover Calvert and son George
of First View, were visitors at
our ranch one day last week.
John Shepherd and A. F. Moore
were part Of our working force
when the gripp was at its worst
with US.
Veterinary Reed Caulkins and
Tom Reese were on professional
business at our ranch Tuesday
night and all went well.
We are now confronted with
the cheese factory proposition at
Cheyenne Wells. Ths dairy bus
mess is enlarging. and the way
for the farmer to realize the most
for his investment and labor.
and the capitalist also to find a
safe and renumerative return for
his money is widely discussed in
business circles. II the sale Of
milk direct to cheese plant. will
bring more revenue to the keeper
of cows and with less work to
tn operator and separator let US
think twice before discussing the
subject. OF course the calf will
be balling for its coveted share,
and it must not be overlooked,
for calves are calves these davs
and it only takes a little while
till they are cows or great calves
that will bring hundred dollars
So you can see it takes figuring
to fetch US up to right decisions.
Whether you pass the cheese or
pass the butter. you will know
there were a lot of active process
es in there making before they
found their honored places on
your table to tempt and SATISFY
your appetite. Davy Crockett
