Grape-Nuts is a skilfully pre-
pared food for human power.
It contains the necessary ele-
ments for strength and energy,
and it supplies this power lightly
and smoothly, with no burden
to the digestion.
Grape-Nuts is a go-ahead
food, made from whole wheat
flour and malted barley, skilfully
blended and processed, and
slowly baked for twenty hours.
Ready to eat with cream or milk
—a complete food.
There’s a delicious charm of
crispness and flavor in Grape-
Nuts, and a great aid to health
and efficiency in its well-rounded
nourishment.

they did in the Hawkeye state. Senator
Robert M. La Follette has taken up the
cudgel for these organizations. He does not
hesitate to criticize the Supreme court of
the United States.
Speaking of the Coronado coal decision,
he says the opinion is significant because of
what the court says on questions not in-
volved in the case rather than because of
anything that is actually decided. This is
the indictment made by the Wisconsin sena-
tor: “The court went out of its way to
change the law as it has existed in the
United States since the beginning of the
government that unincorporated associations,
such as are involved here, could not be sued
as an entity.”
A similar decision was made by the high
courts of England a few years ago. Lloyd
George became the champion of organized
labor in England and the British parliament
passed a statute which cut up that decision
root and branch and made it impossible for
an English court to ever render a similar de-
cision.
As a result of these high court decisions
there may be farm labor party candidates
for president and vice president in the cam-
paign of 1924. They are organizing every-
where in all the forty-eight states of the
union.
Their leaders claim a membership of
200,000 in Texas. They have candidates for.
state offices in the field. They are backing
congressional candidates in a number of dis-
tricts They have a vast number of organ-
izers in the field and officials of the State
Federation of Labor and the railway organi-
sations of employees in Texas are actively
interested in pushing the cause along.
Should Lynn J. Frazier win in North Da-
kota there is going to be crepe on the door
of the Old Guard Temple under the big dome
in the city of Washington. There is a cen-
gressional farm bloc very much in evidence.
There is a combination of farm and labor
interests away down here in Texas. They
work like moles but they work all the time.
They haven’t been given much newspaper
publicity. They are not holding torch light
processions in the big cities. They may not
cut a wide swath this year in the politics of
Texas, end then again they may pull stunts
on primary election day that will cause the
Cid politicians to believe that the Angel Ga-
brief has sounded his trumpet for a final
Hgurrection of the ghosts of the farm-
er »l\uuwe, the farmers' union, the
of labor and many other defunct
twewnisationx to pass in review.

Signs of the Times.
Col Smith W. Brookhart of Iowa is repub-
lican nominee for Um ted States senaior.He
won hands down. He is a worldwar veteran
and a farmer and a lawyer. His platform
“Cuts to the Bone.” He demands the elim-
ination of middle men; government.owner
shin of railroads; co-operative buy ing, 4nd
selling and the closestt possible union, fthe
ity and country laborers; a soldiers bonus
bill going much beyond the provisions of the
one now being considered by congress ; pre-
dominance of the farmer and other producers
on the federal reserve board that they may
control the country’s credit.
Organized labor made its most vigorous
effort in Colonel Brookhart's behalf in Iowa
and the farm organizations made a telling
campaign for him. All the railway organi-
5 zations gave him their support. He is the
first farm labor candidate for high office
put over this year, although Farm-Labor
backed Beveredge in Indiana and Pinchot in
