How often do you
eat this food?
A short time ago there appeared in
the columns of one of the prominent
magazines an article on building brain I
and muscle by the proper selection of
the foods you eat.
A good many people were surprised
to find oatmeal placed at the top of the
list of foods recommended; but if the
article had appeared in an English ur !
Scotch paper every reader would have
expected to see lirst place given to |
good oatmeal.
As a matter of fact Great Rritian !
and Europe come to us for tremendous i
quantities of Quaker Oats because it i
represents to them perfect food, being
the richest in flavor and best in clean
liness and purity, of all oatmeals.
Americans should eat more Quaker
Oats; the results would soon show
themselves in improved conditions of
health and strength. 55

What Shall the Harvest Be?
Becomes a leading question with the farmers at certain
seasons every year- Generally the harvest is dependent
upon the sowing. ‘‘As ye sow so shall ye reap’ holds
true in every department of life. You cannot deposit
longings and wishes and secure any interest thereon. These
must be crystalized iuto effort which produces dollars, and
when these have been deposited in our bank you can come
pretty close to knowing that the harvest for you will then
be more dollars. Do you want them' Then get busy; get
a passbook today. Get started right, keep at it and vou
will reap not a "harvest of barren regrets,but plain,
straight, hard, big, round dollars.
It is wonderful how we can help you in caring for the
harvest, and increasing the yield
