Your Health,
FOOD
You need fuel food just as an en-
gine needs coal or gasoline. Bread
and butter, cereals, fats and sugars
are chiefly fuel foods.
You need fuel food justas an en-
gine or an automobile needs repair
materials. Milk, meat, fish, eggs,
poultry, cheese, green peas and beans
give repair material, as well as fuel.
You need regulating food just as an
engine or automobile needs lubrica-
ting oil, distilled water, water for
the cooler, charging of the battery,
ete. Regulating foods are milk, fruit,
green vegetables and water. You need
some every day, also some hard and
erusty food, some raw and some bulky
fruit and vegetable foods to give your
teeth exercise and keep your bowels
regular. = The average well person
should drink 6 glasss of water (or
fluid) every day, (three of them be-
tween meals). Warm weather or
warm work will of course make a
larger intake necessary. If salt is
eaten too freely an unnatural desire
for fluid is created.
Your chief need is fuel food. Your
least need is repair food.
Eat meat, fish, poultry, eggs or
cheese once a day in moderate quanti-
ty.
Eat sufficient cereals and bread and
butter to keep up your weight.
Do not hurry at your meals. Chew
and taste your food thoroughly until
it slides into your stomach.
CONSTIPATION
Do not use pills, mineral waters or
purgatives.
Diet should be the mainstay in
bowel regulation.
Eat freely of whole cereals, oat-
meal, whole wheat, graham or bran
bread, fruits and bulky vegetables,
such as lettuce, spinach, cabbage,
sprouts, carrots, turnips, onions, ap-
ples, prunes, dates. figs; also orange
juice and lemon juice.
Constipation will usually disappear
if you follow this program every day:
On rising in morning:
1 or 2 glasses of water.
A few minutes of wild body bend-
ing and twisting exercises,
At breakfast:
Fruit or fruit juice, cereal with 2
tablespoonfuls of bran or bran muf-
ns.
Soon after breakfast.
A bowel movement:
During the day:
4 more glasses of water or milk
(2 between meals). Three por-
tions of bulky vegetables and fruit.
If this program is not effective,
supplement it with harmless aids:
Agar-Agar (Japanese seaweed) is
a good bowel regulator and is not a
drug. (A teaspoonful three tines a
day, in milk, cereal or other foods.)
Plantago-psyllium seeds are more
effective than agar-agar and act simi-
larly without drug effect. (Tea-
spoonful once daily.)
Mineral oil is serviceable for tem-
porary use in obstinate cases and also
has no drug effect.
TEETH AND TONSILS
Many serious diseases come from
infection in mouth and tonsils and
throat and nose.
Keep the teeth clean. Brush them
thoroughly night and morning. Use
a little lemon juice and water as a
mouth wash. Pure soap is a good
dentifrice.
Visit the denist or dental clinic
every three months. Do not wait for
a toothache.
Do not let decayed roots remain in
your mouth. Have them pulled with-
on delay. They may cost you your
ife.
If your mouth is full of gold work
and fillings or caps, have your teeth
examined by X-ray. If found infect-
ed, removal is usually the best course,
especiallly if you have rheumatism or
other chronic trouble.
Infected tonsils also may cause
rheumatism and organic changes.
EYES
If you have headaches, have your
Sve: examined by a physician or occu-
ist.
Eye strain may break down your
health.
Wear glasses if they are needed
and save brain and nervous system
from strain.
EXERCISE
Get as much exercise in the open
Sif as possible every day—at least an
our.
Even if active at your work, do set- |
ting up exercises night and morning
for 10 to 15 minutes, to make you
straight and strong and well develop:
ed. e exercises which require body
bending and twisting are especially
helpful in strengthening the abdomi-
nal muscles and stimulating bowel aec-
tion.
OVERWEIGHT
Do not allow yourself to gain
weight gradually and hecome fat af-
ter you have passed 381 or 35 years.
Keep your weight after that age, |
from five to ten pounds under the av-
erage, or near your ideal weight.
f you are gaining, cut down the
fuel foods, bread and butter, cereals,
sugar and fats—and eat instead more
green vegetables and fruits.
UNDERWEIGHT
If you are thin and pale and losing
weight, be carefully examined for
lung trouble.
at freely of bread and butter, egg
yolks, cereals, milk and cream, but al-
80, of green vegetables and fruit.
Sleep out of doors. Get plenty of
fresh air. Breathe deeply.
PREVENTION OF COLDS
Prevent constipation.
The new Ford
has a very
THE lubrication system for
the engine of the new Ford
is as simple in principle as
water running down-hill.
A gear pump in the bot-
tom of the oil pan raises the
oil to the valve chamber
reservoir. From here it
flows on to the main crank-
shaft bearings and the front
camshaft bearing, Overflow
oil drops into the e¢il pan
tray and runs into {roughs
through which the connect-
ing rods pass.
As the ends of these rods
strike the oil they scoop up
a supply for the connecting
rod bearing. At the same
time they set up a fine spray
that lubricates the pistons
and other moving parts.
From the tray the il runs
into the bottem of the pan,
and is again drawn up
through a fine mesh screen
and pumped to the valve
chamber.
This system is so effective
that the five-quart contents
of the oil pan pass through
the pump twice in every
mile when you are traveling
at only 30 miles an hour.
Yet there is only one
movable part — the
oil pump.
FORD MOTOR COMPANY
simple and
effective
lubrication system
As a matter of fact, the
lubrication system for the
new Ford 18 so simple in de-
sign and so carefully made
that it requires practically
no service attention.
There is just one thing
for you to do, but it is a very
important thing . . . waich
the oil! Change the oil
every 500 miles and be sure
the indicator rod never reg-
isters below low (L).
If the oil level is allowed
to fall below low, the supply
becomes insufficient to oil
all parts as they should be
oiled.
To insure best perform-
ance it is also advisable to
have the chassis of your car
lubricated every 500 miles.
This has been made easy
in the new Ford through the
use of the high pressure
grease gun sysiem.
Proper oiling and greas-
ing mean se much to the life
of your car that they should
not be neglected or care-
lessly done.
See your Ford dealer reg-
ularly. He is especially well-
fitted to lubricate the new
Ford and he will do
a good, thorough
job at a fair price.
Avoid alcoho. and tobacco.
Train your skin to resist drafts and
- changes in temperature by cool bath-
{ing and cold sponging of neck and
chest.
Use a mild method oil spray in nose
at first sign of a cold. Take fre-
quent doses (level teaspoonful) of
baking soda in water. Take a hot
foot-bath, drink hot lemonade, or hot
flaxseed tea, and go to bed and per-
spire freely. Take no alcohol or “cold
cures.
Home Manufacture of Wines and
: Beers and Liquors.
More than $600,000,000 a year is
. expended by the American people in
the purchase of materials for making
intoxicating liquors at home, accord-
ing to a story by John T. Flynn in
“Collier's Weekly.”
The writer, after an extensive ex-
amination of the various articles used
for producing beer, wine and whiskey
in the American cellar and kitchen,
presents these figures:
000,000 a year is spent for home made
beer, $220,000,000 for wine, $100,-
000,000 for hard liquor and about
$50,000,000 a year for the machinery
and apparatus for brewing and distil-
ling. Add to this another $100,000,
000 for carbonated beverages and
flavors used in connection with the
other drinks.
These sums do not include the im-
pressive sums—far larger—paid to
bootleggers.
| While the anti-prohibitionists do
the drinkng, much of the material for
making the stuff comes from rock-
Ffohed dry States like California and
- Maine.
This business of supplying home '
brew ingredients is becoming one of
.the great industries of the country,
according to Flynn.
i
No, Panama Hat Isn’t from Panama
at All
One of life's little oddities is that
i the country which gives its name to
; the Jenana hat doesn’t make the hat
{at all. And the panama isn’t a straw
hat, properly speaking.
The hats are made from the shred-
ded leaves of a species of small palm
, which grows almost entirely in coun-
tries south of panama, Ecuador, Peru
and Columbia are among the princi-
pal producers.
| The long leaves are cut, dipped in
| boiling water and bleached before the
women who weave them, begin work.
The hat is not woven under water, as
is commonly believed although water
does play a part in the process. Us-
ually the weavers begin work early
in the morning, to keep the shreds
from drying and to keep their fingers
constantly damp, an essential factor
in handling the strips. A weaver will
spend as much as three weeks in mak-
ing a single hat. Pwever: the time
is p since a genuine:
: panama wil sell for $60 or more in
{its native land—and will cost much
' more before it reaches you.

| AIR CHIEF REPORTS
| DROP IN PERSONNEL.
America’s growing intrest in flying
was reflected in the report of General
James E. Fechet, Chief of Air Corps:
i to the Secretary of War.
| The report indicated that there was
no serious lack of anything in the Air
{ Corps except of money and of vacan-
[cles In commissioning personnel to
| provide for commissioning eligible
fliers or for advancement of junior
officers to higher grades.
| General Fechet reported steady de-
crease in the number of enlisted pilots
and said this. was primarily due to the
better pay available to these men as
civil flyers or pilots in other Govern-
iment aviation agencies.
| The lure of flight for college men
was shown by the fact that approxi-
mately 70 per cent of cadets entering
{July 1 classes at primary flying
schools were college graduates.
‘The problem of increasing the com-
' missioned personnel of the Air Corps,’
| Fechet explained, “is not one of pro-
, ducing flying personnel but of pro-
viding sufficient appropriations to al-
low graduates of the Air Corps Ad-
, vanced Flying School to be immedi-
‘ately commissioned as Second Lieu-
tenants in the Regular Army upon
graduation or placed upon active duty
1 as Reserve Officers, subject only, inso-
' far as numbers are concerned, to the
limitations fixed by the annual inere-
ments set for July 24, 1927.”
Fechet recommended that suitable
grades of rank should be set aside or
established for enlisted pilots in order
to permit the Corps to retain the ser-
, vices of these men.
Applications for flying cadet ap-
pointments during the fiscal year end-
ing June 30, 1928, greatly exceeded the
number the year before and 3,830 ap-
| plicants were authorized to take the
| examinations as compared with 1,063
‘ the year before.
I" Air Corps flyers photographer 25,-
| 000 square miles of areas in various
parts of the United States for the
War Department and other Federal
agencies.
A hint of what the passage of years
{has done to the trim-waisted youths
who became American flyers during
the War was given by Fechet when he
said that pressure of business and
failure to pass physical examinations
, had reduced the number of Air Corps
' Reserve officers capable of flying
with tactical units from 38,000 to 7.000

—Good feed and plenty of exercise
; this winter will aid the ewes to pro-
! duce good lambs next spring.
| —If manure is handled out and
‘spread daily duri the winter
; months it saves double work in the
, spring.
—Acres not needed for field crops,
fruit, garden, or pasture should be
growing that other essential farm
product—wood.
—A good farm record book accur-
ately kept will help a farmer to know
his business. A farm without records
is like a clock without hands. It may
be running right but there is no way
of knowing it.
—DBefore winter comes go over the
woodiest parts of your young planta-
tions and cut or tramp the weeds
away from the trees so that they will
not be carried to the ground when the
weeds go down.
—There are two purposes for which
the pruning shears and saw are used
in the orchard; the first, both in time
and importance, is to train the tree to
the desired type of framework; the
second, to maintain that framework in
condition to produce the maximum
amount of good quality fruit.
—During the long winter evenings
time re used profitably in the
study of correspondence courses in
agriculture and home economics. The
Pennsylvania State College has free
courses on a large number of subjects.
A post card to the director of the cor-
respondence courses at State College,
{ Pa., will bring you the new catalog.
—The 1929 breeders should be se-
lected now, say State College poultry
specialists. Keep only those birds for
{ breeders that have pale shanks and
: beaks, are still laying, and have not
! molted up to the present time. Those
i birds should be up to breed weight,
i true to breed type, and free from dis-
; qualifications as described by the
| American Standard of Perfection.
| —Competitive spirit is given a
, chance for expression in farm pro-
‘ducts show. The educational feature,
however, is the chief value of such ex-
hibitions. The display shows the ex-
hibitor how his products compare
with the exhibits beside them. If
i the other fellow’s are better it will
; stimulate the lower prize winner to do
. a little better the next "year. Thus a
valuable lesson is learned.
« —Crop rotation is a farm practice
which may be used by the farmer to
"increase the productivity of his soils
as effectively as the use of manure or
commercial fertilizers, says the Unit-
ed States Department of Agriculture.
Furthermore, crop rotation as ordi-
narily practiced does not entail any
extra cost. The extra yield due to
this practice is therefore a profit that
may be credited to the farmer's
managerial ability.
—Decidious trees may be trans-
planted any time during ~ the dormant
season, that is, from the time the
leaves drop in the fall until just be-
fore growth starts in the spring.
Where the conditions are not so fav-
orable, it is better to set them in the
spring. Many nursery trees are dug
in the fall and stored during the win-
ted. Another way is to dig them in
the fall and heel-in over winter. This
is done by burying the trees in soil.
—The house cellar is a convenient
place for vegetable storage. A dirt
floor is referable, The furnace cel-
lar should be separated from the stos-
age cellar by a concrete wall or a:
double wood partition: A window is
needed for ventilation. An outside pit
made by burying a barrel horizontally
in the side of a , makes an ideal
place for storing cabbage and root
crops, and the unused hotbed pit fre-
quently can be used successfully for
storing celery.
—For example, corn at the Mis-
souri experiment station yielded 22.4
bushels per acre from cultivation
alone. When_corn was manured the
yield was increased by 14.7 bushels,
or to 37.1 bushels per acre; when it
was grown in rotation with other
crops the yield was increased by 15.1
bushels, or to 37.5 bushels per acre.
However, when both manuring and ro-
tation were practiced, the acre yield
was increased by 25.3 or to a total of
47.7 bushels per acre.
—While rotations in different sec-
tions, in a given locality, or even on a
single farm may differ, there are cer-
tain fundamental priniciples of crop
rotation which have general applica-
tion. These must be understood by
the farmer if he is to put himself in a
position to utilize the results that
have been worked out by State experi-
ment stations for his locality. The
purpose of this bulletin is to acquaint
e were recorded in trials at
Urbana, Ill. In these experiments the
use of fertilizers consisting of pulver-
ized limestone, farm manure and phos-
phate, was compared with a rotation
of corn, oats and clover. The ave
vield of corn obtained without the use
of either rotation or fertilizers on this
particular paririe soil in Illinois, was
23.4 bushels per acre. The gain ef-
the abov
fected by rotation alone was practic- |
ally three times that obtained from
the use of fertilizers and lime, or 27.8
bushels due to rotation. and only 9.2
due to the fertilizers. The total in-
crease from the use of both fertilizers
and rotation was 44.2 bushels per
acre, or 7.2 bushels greater than the
sum of their separate increases.
—A study oi the leng-continued
soil fertility experiments of this
country and of England, made by the !
department, has brought out some
important facts about crop rotation
in its relation to soil productivity.
These are discussed in Farmers’ Bulle-
tin 1475-F, just issued. In general,
crop rotation has been found to be
practically 95 per cent as effective as
farm manure or complete fertilizers !
in maintaining the yields of wheat, |
corn and oats, and about 90 per cent
as effective as these fertilizers in in-
creasing the yield of these three maj-
or crops. The beneficial effects of
crop rotation do not impair the bene-
fits derived from the use of fertiliz-
ers: so that when these two farm
practices are combined the one prac-
tice adds to the benefits of the other.
Enormous Hords of Buffalo in Aus-
tralia,
Most people will be surprised to
learn that huge herds of wild buffalo
rcam the plains of the nothern terri-
tory of Australia. These animals are
not native to the country, and there
appears to be a considerable diver-
sity of opinion as to their orgin. It
is generally accepted, however, says
Michael Terry, that when the military
stations, were created near Darwin,
1826, Timor buffalo were imported for
domestic purpo:} s.
The earliest English settlers who
arrived to develop the country found
the animals in considerable numbers
and tried to tame them for domestic
uses. Most of them, however, had
become too wild for this, and so they
were left alone, so far as the white
man was concerned, for the next fifty
years. e climate and ‘other condi-
tions, apparently, were ideal for their |
requirements; they multiplied in
numbers and increased in size till
you can now shoot enormous speci-
mens.
It estimated that there are at
least 30,000 of them at large in the
northern territory. Their horns—
which have a spread up to ten feet
from tip to tip—are as big as one’s
thigh at the butt and taper to pencil
points at the extremities. The hide,
an inch thick, will turn an ordinary’
bullet; the hunters use a .450 Mar-
tini with a short ball. With his for-
midable equipment of horns and hide
and his powerful physique, it is easy
to understand how the buffalo has
been able not only to hold his own
but to increase and multiply.
The black man with his spear can
do nothing against him, says Mr.
Terry, and so keeps at a respectful
distance; the dingo, or wild dog,
which hunts down domestic calves,
dare not tackle him. Only a handful
of professional hunters, in quest of
hides make systematic war upon him,
2,066,511 Autoists 5 Given Warnings.
Highway Patrolmen warned, with-
out arrest, 2,066,511 motorists dur-
ing 1928. At the end of October 1,-
711,000 operators had been licensed
by the Department of Highways dur-
ing the year. Officials are wondering
how many operators were warned
twice or three times during the year,
or whether the entire roll of operat-
ors was covered, along with a few
thousand out-of-State motorists. In
October 230,000 were warned. :
Patrolmen covered 410,290 miles in
regular patrols and made 1211 in-
vestigations of accidents and com-
plaints. They also collected 52 bad’
checks which were issued to the bu-
reau of motor vehicles in payment of
licenses.
In examining new opera ]
patrol passed 18,916 and 6390 failed
to make a passing grade. During the
year 187,339 new operators have been
passed, while 58,633 failed. Many of
those who failed tried again later and
succeeded.
