Hyper-acidity, meaning, there is an' excess of hydrochloric acid in the stomach which prevents complete di gestion and starts food fermentation. Thus everything eaten sours in the stomach much like garbage sours in a can, forming acrid fluids and gases which inflate the stomach like a toy balloon. Then we feel a heavy, lumpy misery in the chest, we oelch up gas, we eructate sour food or have heartburn, flatulence, water-brash cr nausea.

McCANN The thing we cwll food shortage Is in reality food wa.ste—our corn waste alone, of which, through (IciiHtuml milling processes, we rejtn-t nearly 50,000.000 bushels annually, woultl give, if conserved, more than three ]K>uiids of whole corn bread every week to every man, woman and child in the United States. There Is no need to develop hys steria over the food shortage situa tion. Even though the Department of Agriculture doea show us that we are facing a serious deficit in wheat, corn, oats, and barley, and that to the extra demands of Europe upon us for these very foods the outlook is exceedingly gloomy, I propose to show that by adjusting our needs to our suply we can not only go on ex porting. without incurring the risk of hunger at home, but wecan actu ally part with much more food than any of our statistics seem to make possible and still leave an abund ance for home consumption. The crop reporting board of the Bureau of Crop Estimates. Washing ton, reports that we had less corn March 1, 1917, on our farms by 327,- 14 3,000 bushels than we had March 1, 1916. But, wearereasonably sure of producing in the United States during 1917 2,500,000,000 bushels of corn. We have not produced less than this quantity in any one year since 1907. In 1915 we produced more than 3,000,000.000 bushels. It is hardly probable that we will now fall below the lowest record of ten years. Ordinarily we export about 100.- 000,000 bushels of corn annually. Even though In 1917 we should be called upon to export/ 500,000,000 bushels we would still have for our own use 2.000,000,000 bushels. Of this amount every year 50,000.- 000 bushels are converted into glu cose and laundry starch. The glucose is used for numberless technical pur poses, including the manufacture of pastes, sizes, blacking, printers' rol lers. shoe polish, silvering glass for mirrors, liquid soaps, hair tonics, sponges and in the tanning of leath er. the roasting of coffee, the polish ing of rice, and the production of logwood. Enormous quantities of corn are employed in the production of dex trines. used in the textile industries: for strengthening the fibre and fin ishing the fabrics of cloth, carpets, and twine: for the thickening of col ors for calico and other printing; for leather dressings: for guns and glues: for ink, mucilages, and adhe-1 sives. Corn oil and paragol are used in the manufacture of soap powders, oilcloth, rubber substitutes, insulat ing material, etc. Surely, if necessary, we can do without laundry lump starch, corn soap and lollypops. in order to add to our food supply the 50.000,000 bushels of corn which annually go into the production of these luxuries. In the production of grain alcohol, whiskey, and beer from corn grits and glucose another batch of 50.000.- 000 bushels of corn can besaved for food purposes, thus yielding from these two sources alone 100,000,000 bushels of sixty pounds each.

Valley Mills, Paoli, Pa., is the only kind of eornmeal obtainable on the market to-day. welose 25 per cent, of the protein, 33 per cent, of the fat and 60 per cent, of the mineral salts of the whole grain. Like whole wheat, whole corn has a fibrous outer skin, beneath which is a layer rich In protein, phosphor us. iron and lime compounds. This layer is called by Professor Sherman of Columbia University the "gluten layers." Within these layers lies the germ, constituting nearly 10 per cent, of the entire weight of the grain. In the production of hominy, eornmeal, grits, corn flakes, and pan cake flour the germ is discarded. "In view of the high food value of the germ." says Sherman, "and the fact tliat it constitutes about one tenth of the entire grain, it seems unforunate that it enters so little into human consumption.'' The reports of the United States Public Health Service show that there are important health reasons behind the proposition that the germ of the corn should enter into human consumption. Every year we convert into corn meal in the milling establishments of the United States an average of 210.000,000 bushels of corn, In the refinement of which one-fifth or 4 2.- 000.000 bushels of the most Indispen sable parts of the kernel are lost. These rejected substances are sold for cattle food. The Department of Agriculture at Washington informs us that of the total corn crop from 85 to 90 per cent, is fed to animals on the farms and only 10 to 15 per cent, reaches the human family. Ten per cent, of a 3,000,000,000 bushel crop would be 300,000,000 bushels, a quantity which checks up almost to the bushel with the curious uses to which we see our corn prod ucts r.re put. In times of stress we can easily re arrange the schedule, and instead of wasting the vast quantities now em ployed for purely technical purposes we can add to our food supply not only the sixty pounds per head as computed above, but also the tre mendous saving of 42,000,000 bushels which would automatically follow our use of old-fashioned southern water-ground whole meal as a sub stitute for the degermlnated. highly milled product now on the market. Forty-two million bushels at sixty pounds each weigh 2,320.000,000 pounds, which would give us annual ly an additional twenty-tlve pounds each, or eighty-five pounds in all. Eighty-five pounds of whole corn meal will make ITO pounds of whole corn bread, whole corn muffins, whole corn dodgers, whole corn pones, whole corn johnny cake, or three and a quarter pounds per week per man. This quantity of corn bread, added to the eight pounds of whole wheat bread, which we can also save by changing our milling system, gives us more than a pound and a half of bread daily for every man. woman and child in the land. And what bread it would be! Not the broken staff of life upon which we now lean, but a beautiful, golden brown compound containing every element essential to the maintenance of perfect health, strength and life.

The hen or the incubator—which shall it be? Inquiries received at the Pennsylvania State College school of agriculture and experiment station show that farmers arc experiencing the usual amount of incubator trou ble. Many blame the incubator for these troubles and ask whether or not natural Incubation would be bet ter. It is difficult to draw the line be tween conditions warranting the use of an incubator and those warranting the use of hens. When only a few chicks are hatched each year, the na tural method is probably to be recom mended. Generally speaking, a farmer who keeps White Leghorns or other nonsitting breeds and desires chicks by April 1. or who has a flock too large to hatch by natural methods, should resort to the incubator. A farm laying flock should be com posed of one-half pullets and one-half yearling hens. Thus a flock of 300 hens would require the addition of 150 pullets each year. On an average not more than one pullet is obtained from five eggs. On this basis it would require 750 eggs to secure 150 pullets. Allowing fifteen eggs to a hen, fifty hens would be required to set 750 eggs. Caring for fifty sitting liens is somewhat of a task. It would seem that two or three incubators would be less trouble than fifty liens. XITIIOGEX FOR FARM CROPS Fertilizer experiments at the Penn sylvania State College Indicate that in a four-field rotation, in which clover occurs once every four years, there is little need of commercial nitrogen on our limestone soils for corn, oats or wheat. Where manure is available for corn, phosphoric acid at the rate of 200 pounds per acre is the only com mercial product needed for this crop. Ordinarily oats will require no ferti lizer. Ten to fifteen pounds of nitro gen along with phosphoric acid and potash, may prove beneficial to wheat, especially when grass is seeded it. If the grass is to remain fot two | years the nitrogenous fertilizer, pre ferably as nitrate of soda, may be ap plied with profitable : esults early in the spring just as the grass begins to start. j The fertilizer recommended for such a dressing consists of 150 pounds of nitrate of soda and 150 pounds of acid ; phosphate per acre. When potash is at normal prices, the mixture should be supplemented with about fifty pounds | of muriate of potash.

Universal Mili tary Training League Sure Way to Get Rid of Dandruff There is one sure way that never fails to remove dandruff completely and that is to dissolve it. This de stroys it entirely. To do this, just get about four ounces of plain, or dinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to mois ten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. By morning, most if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will completely dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it, no mat ter how much dandruff you may have. You will find, too, that all Itching and digging of the scalp will stop in stantly, and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store. It is inexpensive, and four ounces is all you will need. This simple remedy has never been known to fail. 3B~f 39 1 Some Men Cannot 1 I Stick to Facts I We have a name for them which is far from complimentary, but we are apt |ji m to f ar more lenient toward those newspapers which serve the news with a 3 B| naive disregard for the verities. =§| However, it takes all kinds of people to make a world, and all kinds of news- Hl papers to please them, but the solid, substantial, "worth-while" people of m B| Philadelphia and vicinity buy; The Record because it is "Always Reliable."
