A Weekly Bulletin of
Information i
| Wotftorn Newspaper Union New? Servto#
During tho past month inquiries
have come from several states asking
for tho complete details as to tho operation
of the Marketing Bureau system
employed in the State of South Carolina
and il looks as if a number of
ntate? are going to adopt the practical I
business system employed in this I
State. The State of Mississippi is
preparing now to Inaugurate the '
South Carolina system at the earliest '
IKissible moment. The SUite of I^mis- ^
iatia is also very nearly ready to put f
the sysitem into operation. \
Owing to an accident in the office ^
during the past week the regular mail- ]
ing list of the Bureau was practically c
destroyed. A new list has been made J
up as far as possible, but the Bureau ^
would earnestly request anyone whose
name was on the original list to re- r
ceive the pamphlet bulletin regularly ^
to notify the Bureau by a post card t
i in case they fail to receive it this t
week, and the name and address will c
be immediately restored to the list. ^
The Bureau would direct particular ?
attention to the fact that after July
1 and until the marl plant has rosum- 1
ed operation, orders for marl at the (<
very cheap rate at which deliveries "
have been made cannot l?c received. (
Any one desiring to secure marl in the
meantime will l>e obliged to have the 7
order in prior to July t. It should be
remembered that marl can be applied
at any season of the year even in connection
with growing crops.
The farm product season is now r
well advanced and evidence of the
fact appears in the increased value of
business in the Bureau this week. I'

In this Matter
of Health
one is either with the winners
:?l ?L i
or wini me losers.
It's largely a question of
right eating ? right food. For
sound health one must cut out
rich, indigestible foods and
choose those that are known
to contain the elements that
build sturdy bodies and keen
brains.
Grape-Nuts
ia a wonderfully balanced
food, made from whole wheat
and barley. It contains all the
nutriment of the grain, including
the mineral phosphates,
indispensable in Nature's plan
for body and brain rebuilding.
Grape-Nut3 is a concentrated
food, easy to digest.
It is economical, has delicious
flavor, comes ready to eat,
and has helped thousands in
the winning class.
