bread. :turfs may be divided rough
" into a number of general classes.
The first of these classes is bread
proper.
About one fifth of the total food
for Americans is composed of wheat
products. These wheat products are
made up largely into the form Of loaf
bread and contain roughly a third Of
the protein and two-fifths Of the
starch and sugar consumed. The
average American eats about one
barrel of flour a year.
Bread alone does not constitute a
balanced diet. Milk more nearly APP
proaches such balanced diet. Most
of the bread we consume is raised
with yeast.
When bread is raised the minor
yeast plants feed upon the sugar in
the warm dough. These plants grow
and multiply and by fermentation
give off what is known as carbon
dioxide gas. This carbon-dioxide gas
forces it's way through the gluten,
spreads all through the sticky mass
of dough and lightens the loaf.
Bread Should Be Well Baked
Raw gluten is more perfectly OIL
gested than is cooked gluten, starchy
grains must be burst open by heat in
order to make them digestible.
If bread is not we'll baked it forms
hard lump in the mouth. If your
bread separates easily when it is
chewed you may know that your
bread is we'll baked. The crust of
we'll baked bread should be brown
and hard.
You have probably been warned
against the use Of hot breads.

The Doctors Lost Key
(GraftOn lLeCOrd)

Grafton doctor went out hunting the other day.
He hunted from early IN the morning until late at
night and took an appetite home with him that ate
up everything in the house and worried the cook

with sweat on his hat band and red in the face. He
asked his wife where those pants that he had
worn out hunting. She told him where she was
airing them and he hurriedly went through the
pockets with an expectant look on his face that

New York, Oct. S.-The comedy
Of life in New York changes with
the seasons.
Somehow we can all laugh at the
man who chases his hat down the
traffic damned thoroughfarc on a
warm July day. We watch the out
come of his chase with high amuse-
ment, knowing full we'll that his
chances Of saving the straw beanie
are one in thousand. And, sure
enough, Crunch" and another
joins the thousands Of broken
straws that fill the streets.
And we howl with glee as the wind
blows inside out the thousands OF
cheap umbrellas picked up from
corner vendors during an unex-
pected rain. and the streets grow
cluttered with parasol skeletons.
We can smile even at the fat man
who is veritable Niagara of per-
spiration in the subway.
But there is nothing funny about
pinched face behind an all too
meager wrap.
This is the season when the COM
edy of New York changes even as
the leaves.
The loungers in the parks and
upon the Library steps are thin
ming out. And those that gather
now sit there, not for mere rccrea-
ton, but because there is no place
else to 60. The crowds that group
about the employment agencies wear
more anxious faces.
Down on the East Side, where the
pushcart peddlers defy wind and
storm, like veteran mariners. they
now begin to break packing boxes
into kindling and build bonfires in
the center Of the street, gathering
around to stamp feet and clap hands
and adjust mufflers.
On the side streets appear chill
dren with little carts, picking up
shavings and bits of wood.
There is little to smile at and
less. to laugh for the comedy of
life in New York changes with the

HOT BREAD NOT HARD
TO DIGEST-CUMMING

All things being equal, bread right
out Of the oven is probably as d.
gestible as any other If eaten prop
erly.
There is a tendency on the part
of most people to swallow without
chewing any food that is fresh and
soft. and herein lies the danger from
fresh bread.
Do you know why the average per-
son swallows soft fresh food without
properly chewing?
Dry food excites the salivary
glands which produce the saliva in
the mouth; soft fresh foods, partic-
ularly moist fresh bread, does not
set up the same kind of. excitement
in these glands and little saliva is
produced. Hot bread also tempts you
to over-eat and large quantities of
bread are difficult to dispose Of.
Toast Easier to Digest
Zwieback and toast are easier to
digest than fresh bread. These are
hard, they require thorough chewing
and their starches have been changed
into soluble sugars.
True graham flour is wholesome.
Some graham flour, however, is SIM
ply inferior flour mixed with bran.
Good graham flour shows large
amounts of coarse and fine mid
dlings mixed with bran.
Cornmeal is another substantial
bread stuff. Unbolted cornmeal con-
tains several times as much fat as
high-grade wheat flour. In addition,
it possesses laxative quality.
Many crackers have a higher fuel
value than bread since they contain
higher percentage of protein, fat
and bo-hydrates. Crackers, while
they form valuable article of diet,
ought not to take the place of bread
in ordinary life.

The Burlington IS Years Old

This month the Burlington is Is years old Mil

Pioneers already had pushed out into the l.;

but the prairie schooner was the chief agent of
transportation, and the pack mule served as hon
CRADLE second. From year to year the steel rails
gllsened in strange new areas the iron horse
snored its conquerng to terminals which
became way stations, the rght-of-way heightened
with lcaping bounds. Villages and hamlets and
cities grew up along the various lines composing
the system. Farms multiplied by many thousand
fold.
Government land grants in Missouri, Illinois and
Iowa gave the Burlington it's first forward thrust
for empire. Local communities aided the move
ment by organizing little railroads which were alb
sorbed into the growing system, which, with its
auXaries, comprises now approximately 1850
miles Of trackage, operates $50 passenger trains
daily, boasts of being the biggest livestock carrier
in the world, and has native Missourian, Hale
Holden of Kansas City, for it's president.
The Burlington is great because the Middle West
is great. They have grown up together each help

up an instrument of war few weeks

1t is an old-fashioned saber of the

pioneer times and designated by the
early conquered inhabitants, ie, the
Indians, as being weapons of the

The British redcoats used these
threatening instruments in the from

long, entirely of steel, and 500 hard

ground for century or more. Any
one interested in seeing this old wea-

mounds and during the past few years
a number of Indian relics have been
plowed up. This saber was, we be-
