This unusual offer is one of our orig-

the most satisfactory self-filling pen

@ We make a big sacrifice, for the old
pens are frequently worthless, but
the splendid things you say about the
Crocker Pen induces many others to
buy it, so although we lose at the start,
we gain at the finish.
The pens we coffer are the genuine

WEEKLY ARTICLES WRITTEN
EXPRESSLY FOR THE MT.
JOY BULLETIN BY DR.
DAVID H. REEDER OF
CHICAGO, ILL.

Getting Ready: Yes, I plead |
guilty, it’s only another way of say-
ing “preparedness,” the big
with a bigger meaning that has
[ started out to ask about
How many families of
day are prepared to feed themselves
for a few weeks even, some of them
a few days, to say nothing of
months in case of a prolonged rail-
road tieup or an
kind, even a rigid quarantine,
ade or a failure of
crop. Just stop and think over the
many possibilities. I am
alarmist nor a pessimist, on the con-
trary I am rather an extreme of the
American type of optimist. We are
all inclined to say “I should worry”
and then let worry go hang.
The people on the farms are in a
much safer
of the cities and
South, that is the real farmers of
the south are much safer than those
of the North. It is a lamentable]
fact, however, that the farmers of
the entire country as well as the|
city dwellers have come to depend |
upon an almost daily supply of food
products that are carried from point
to point on the railroads. Any
great calamity that would suddenly |
stop that transportation would cause |
wide-spread suffering. I believe |
heartily in the old-fashioned way of |
storing up a supply sufficient for |
emergencies and this should be done |
by the individual as well as the na-
tion.
Last year this country produced al
most bountiful crop of all cereals |
and at once we began to sell and
export it. The present crop is barely |
sufficient for the needs of our own |
country but selling for export is go-|
ing on just the same. The people |
that look beyond the days supply |
for their own commissary as well as
that of the nation are the ones that |
realize fully the tremendous waste
that is constantly going on in this |
country. In the cities and even in|
some parts of the country many |
children hunger for the fruit and
vegetables that rot in the fields on|
other farms. Great piles of manure |
lie wasting near the barns while the |
careless farmer complains that his]
land is worn out. Disease breeding
flies come from this fertile breeding |
place to plague the careless farmers |
and he complains about that and
when his family is stricken through |
the activity of the typhoid fly, he
blames the doctor.

The careless farmer lets the weec ds |?
grow rank where he should grow |
food. Many thousands of acres of
most excellent land, which if culti-|
vated would supply the needed sung |
plus of fruits, grains and vegetables |
are turned over to weeds and their |
seeds increase the difficulty and labor |
of growing crops on the cultivated |
land.
In order to get ready for the ever
increasing demand for more food by
our steadily increasing population
there must be more and smaller
farms, more intensive cultivation of
the land and lose food allowed to go
to waste. Surplus potatoes should
be dessicated during the years of
abundant crops and need when the
crop is light, also the surplus fruits
should be evaporated and thus
easily kept over for the lean years.
Above all, however, from the Home
Health Club standpoint, law in an
abundant supply of good health.
Treasure it as the most valuable
possession of a human being. In-
cidentally don’t forget that the
Home Health Club is always read;
to help you.
