, One pound of Grape-Nuts contains more nourishment that the

v An aperiment was tried by a man who found that by leaving off
meat altogether at breakfast and lunch, and taking in its place four
heaping teaspoonfuls of Grape-Nuts with cream, he began to gain flesh
and strength and before the full pound package was gone had gained
four pounds m weight whereas he had been losing on his meat diet

would change my diet and take Grape-Nuts food at two meals in the day, I would im-
prove. I made the experiment and in less than two weeks began to improve very
rapidly. I discovered that a few teaspoonfuls of Grape-Nuts with cream would furnish
more nourishment than quantities of meat. My improvement has continued until now

After a busy day in Portland M. H.
Harriman departed laat night in a
special train for Sacramento, where he
Will attend the Irrigation congress and
then leave for the east During his
brief stay In this city he held con
ferences with the transportation com
mittee of the chamber of commerce, a
committee, from the lumber manufact
urer's association, and with officials of
the operating department of the South
ern Pacific and O. B, dc N. companies.
The date of putting into effect the
increased freight rate on eastbound
lumber shipments has been postponed
from October 1 to Nevember 1, and lum
ber manufacturers have begun to hope
that they will succeed In retaining tne
present rate. Their conference com
mittee yesterday, headed by President
Philip Buehner, had a satisfactory
meeting with Mr. Harriman and his of
ficials. The chamber of commerce com
mittee also expressed satisfaction with
the result of Its conference, but gave
out no details.
In an Interview yesterday with the
Journal Mr. Harriman expressed the
belief that there are enough cars In
the country to handle the tonnage if
the cars are properly handled, and not
used as warehouses, and if there is
enough motive power to move them
fromptly. He cited the case af a vll
age where there were three carloads
of coal, ' In -process of unloading aud
delivery about through the country with
sleighs. He thought the coal should
have been unloaded by a sufficient
force of men into a coal house, and
distributed from there, so that the cars
could have been promptly released. He
said there Is a shortage of warehouses
as well as cars.
Referring to the new orders that
have been placed for cars he said: -"We
have ordered 16,000 new freight
cars, and they are belnar turned out
and delivered as fast as we can get the
materials, we nave naa sreat diffi
culty getting Oregon pine lumber,
which we always specify for use In
making these cars. Our neighbors in
Washington have caused much delay by
failure to deliver the lumber, to the
eastern car factories. We have also
under construction a large number
of locomotives. There is today hardly
a locomotive on tne uregon v lines
that was here a few years asro."
