When the “Weekly” which sued us for libel (because we publicly denounced them for an editorial attack on our claims) wee searching for some ‘‘weak spot,” they thought best to eond a N. Y¥. Atty. to Battle Creek, summoned 25 of oyr work- men and took their sworn statements before a Commission. Did we object? No, On the contrary, we helped all we could, for the opportunity was too good to be lost. Geo. Haines testified he inspected the wheat and barley, also floors and every part of the factories to know things were kept clean. That every 30 minutes a sample of the products was taken and inspected to keep the food up to etandard and keep out any impurities, also that it is the duty of every man in the factories to see that anything not right is immediately reported. Has been with the Co. 10 Edward Young testified had been with Co. 15 years. Inspector, he and his men examined every sack and car of wheat and barley to see they were up to standard and rejected many cars. H, E. Burt, Supt., testified has been with Co. over 13 years.

So these men were examined by the ‘‘Weekly’’ lawyers hoping to find at least one who would say that some under- grade grain was put in or some unclean condition was found somewhere. But it was no use. Each and every man testified to the purity and cleanliness. the State. As a sample, take the testimony of Luther W. Mayo.

Do you use Postum or Grape-Nuts yourself at all ? A. Yes, I use them at home. Q. If from your knowledge of the factory which you have gained in your ten years at the factory you be- lieved that they were dirty or impure in any way, would you use them? I do not think I would. No. Asked if any one on behalf of the Company had asked him to testify in any particular manner. All these sworn depositions were carefully excluded from the testimony at the trial, for they wouldn’t sound well for Think of the fact that every man swore to the purity and cleanliness, so that the Atty. for the ‘‘Weekly’’ was forced to say in open court that the food was pure and good. What a disappointment for the ‘‘Weekly’’! But the testimony showed: All of the grain used _ in Gra) Toasties is the highest standard possible to obtain. All parts of the factory are kept scrupulously clean, None of the workmen had been told how to testify. Most of them have been from 10 to 15 years with the Co. and use the products on their tables at home, Why do their families use the products, Grape-Nuts, Postum and Post Toasties, that they, themselves, make?
