A Leading
Food Expert
stood before the big battery of milling machines in the
Grape-Nuts factories at Battle Creek Mich. and after
inspecting both the wheat and flour Baid to the miller:
"That's selected wheat and no 'patent flour' stunt
either. That wheat comes out of the tolls as honest
and unrefined as it went in. Where did you ever make
flour before that retained the true mineral content of
the grain ?"
And the wise miller replied: "I have worked in
a good many mills and I am no youngster but let
me tell you I never made whole wheat flour like that
until 1 came with this company."
The truth is white flour is wofully lacking in certain
essential mineral elements which are thrown out in the
milling to make flour white and pretty and its use
frequently results in impaired health and activity.
The famous pure food
Grape-Nuts
is made of honest whole wheat and malted barley; and
supplies in splendid proportion all the brain- and nerve-
making bone- and muscle-building elements of the
field gtains including their mineral elements.
Rich nut-like flavour ease of serving and quick
digestibility have made Grape-Nuts a household word
the country over.

So Wisely Distributed That Tax-
ation Will Affect Farmers to
a Degree Practically
Unnoticeable.
So many rumors have been circu-
lated regarding war taxation tn
Canada that the statement made by
Sir Th .taa While. Canadian Minister
of Flaanc of the Government's plans
for ratling war revenue should be giv-
en the widest circulation. Sir Thomas
made it clear that the revenue will be
ralsd by taxing the profits of Incor-
porated companies whenever those
proSts exceed seven per cent and the
profits of unincorporated firms or part-
nerships when the profits exceed ten
pr cent. On all such ejccss profits
thes companies or firms will have to
contribute one-quarter to the Govern-
raenL Transportation companies
banks mining milling and other com-
panies will t subject to this taxation
bat life Insorance companies and com-
panies with less than fifty thousand
dollars capitalization and companies
firms or Individuals engaged In agri-
culture or stock raising arr exempt
and pay no part of this taxation. The
only other additional taxation pro-
posed is an increase of fifty cents a
barrel in the customs duty on apples
aad one-half cent a gallon In customs
duty on certain kinds of oils
It will b noticed that this taxation
is being applied In such a way that It
dos not affect farmers In the slight-
est degree except perhaps through a
small Increase In cost of apples and
oil The war revenue is to be paid out
of tbe profits of (he big firms and com-
panies with capital of over fifty thou-
sand dollars and even these are al-
lowed seven per cent In somo cases
and ten per cent In others of clear
profits before they have to pay any
part of this taxation. It will be seen
that the whole policy Is to placo the
war expenditure taxation on those who
bave been making big profits and are
able to pay It and to encourage farm-
ing and stockralslng by exrmptlng
farmers and stock raisers from the tax-
ation This ought to tet at rest every
rumor that the farmer or the farmer't
