The Bumper
Wheat Crop
means nourishment to millions. But, did you know that a large percent of what
arc known as the vital phosphates of this wheat will be wasted, so far as
human needs are concerned? That's unfortunate, but true.
Many so-called breakfast foods and all white flour products lack these
mineral elements phosphorus, iron, lime, etc. because they are thrown out
of the wheat in the milling process, just to make the flour look white and
pretty. And yet these elements are absolutely necessary all of them
for health.
There's one food, however, that does not lack these mineral elements.
That food is
Grape - Nuts
Made of wheat and batley, this sturdy food contains all the nutriment of
the grain, including their rich phosphates, ,jbo essential for body, brain and
nerve building. The long baking of Grape-Nuts food makes it easily digesti
ble, with highly concentrated food-values.
Comes ready to eat; fresh, crisp, economical, and wonderfully appetizing.

Mysteries of Golf.
Josephus Daniels, secretary of the
navy, was Invited the other day to go
out and play golf.
"I can't play It," said Daniels; "I
made up my mind somo time ago not
to go in for golf until they change the
rules."
"How do you mean?"
"Well, until they change tho rules
and make It as good a game as
shinny."
That recalls tho tale they toll about
tho time Franklin K. Lane, now secre
tary of tho Interior, first undertook tho
mastery of golf.
Two enthusiasts over tho game lont
a large set of clubs to Lane and they
played a round. When they had
reached the last hole Lane walked
over to the nearest teeing place find
began attempts to drive off with each
club in his sack, one after another.
"The game's all over," they ex
plained, gently.
"Well," asked Lane, picking up an
other kind of club, "can't I play my

Had wo begun not moro than fif

tho top of the arch and mako tho
road level. For all othor places wo
prefer tho flat top. Wo build them
from 2 by 1C feet, to 20 by 1G feet.
All concreto work must bo well re

kind of bar iron in tho tops, laid hit
and miss lengthwise with tho road.

In the engineering record of recent
issuo is an Interesting article concern
ing a meeting for the purposo of in
struction to road bulldoro, by experts
in that lino of vork.
Speaking of tho meeting tho Record
comments as follows: "Ono sontenco
in the discussion of concrete road
building would havo been worth put

cam ot design a concreto pavement
four miles long and nssumo that you
can uso tho same cross-section
throughout; you will havo to design
it tho same as foundations for a build

of tho soil, etc.' "
This is undoubtedly true, nnd yet
it states a fact that Is almost univer

ROAD DRAG IS INEXPENSIVE
Constant Attention Is Price of Good

(By C. 8CHUITZ.)
I have watched tho use of tho road

this summer. Tho drag leaves the
road in bettor shape tho grader pil
ing roughage in tho middle while .the

greatest objection is thut tho drag la
not used often enough. Constant at
tention is the prico of good roads, and
tho uso of tho drag is so inexpensive
thut good roads by Its use are obtain

The war's fearful devastation
croni has caused on unusual demand for train
from the Americas Continent. The
world must be fed and thcro is an unusual demand
for Canadian wheat. Canada's Invitation to every
industrious American is therefore especially attrac
tive. She wants farmers to make moneyand happy,
prosperous homes for themselves while helping her
to raise immonse wheat crops.
You can get a Homestead of 160 acres FREE and
other lands can be bought at remarkably low prices. Think of the money yon
can make with wheat at ite present high prices, where for somo time it Is lia
ble to continue. During many years Canadian wheat fields have averaged 20
bushels to tho acre many yields as high as 45 bushels to the acre, Wonderfal
