Notes from New England 
Twisting Commission Men. —For sev¬ 
eral years the Chamber of Commerce in 
Boston has showed rather nu unusual in¬ 
terest in the farmers, ns well as in a dis¬ 
position to help them with their prob¬ 
lems. It: has now taken a step which 
promises to be of no little value, by mak¬ 
ing a careful canvass of the commission 
men doing business in Boston and by 
preparing a complete report, covering the 
kinds of produce which they handle. Any 
farmer who wishes to learn abput a com¬

Here's Good Advice: 
Relieve Your Fatigue Wi 
Sleep . Avoid Stimulants 
r pHERE is nothing- in the world so 
reconstructive as sound, refreshing sleep. 
During sleep the system rids itself of the 
fatigue poisons that have accumulated dur¬ 
ing the day. The finished elements in the 
food are taken up by the various tissues 
that require rebuilding nutriment. 
It is important that you get plenty of 
health-bringing sleep. Anything that inter¬ 
feres with your sleep hampers and hinders 
you—mentally and physically. 
A common cause of physical weakness 
and mental depression is the reaction follow¬ 
ing over-stimulation caused by the drug, caf¬ 
feine, and other elements found in both 
coffee and tea. 
If you have an idea that coffee or tea 
drinking may be injurious to your health, 
why not stop it for a week or so, and drink 
delicious, fragrant Postum instead. 
Postum is a rich, golden-brown, pure 
cereal beverage. It contains no harmful 
elements of any kind. You can drink Postum 
as many times a day as you or the children 
desire a grateful, refreshing beverage. 
Your grocer sells both forms of Postum: Instant Postum 
(in tins) made instantly in the cup by the addition of boiling 
water. Postum Cereal (in packages of larger bulk, for those 
who prefer to make the drink while the meal is being prepared) 
made by boiling for fully twenty minutes. 
Currants, b'errles, plums, 
cherries—all are kept free 
from bugs, rot, mildew, by 
Pyrox. Try it. It combines 
a powerful fungicide with 
a deadly poison. It in¬ 
vigorates tbe foliage; holds 
the fruit on; gives it color 
and finish.
