Elevators Found Helpful on Farms Perform Most of Heavy Lifting, Transport Jobs On today’* electrified farms, ele vators perform most of the heavy lifting and short transportation jobs. Although used for a number of years to some extent, these devices did not acquire widespread popu larity until World War II. It was during the worst of the manpower shortage period that ele vators were used most. They an swered the demands of older men for mechanical help to replace em ployees called to service. And they saved the day for younger farmers in helping them save time for more important production tasks. This photo shows how baled hay can be raised with an in clined plane elevator. Farm elevators are either porta ble or stationary. In general, motors for portable elevators range in size from one-half to one horsepower. Tests made at Idaho state college indicate that an average load of grain can be emptied and cribbed by one man in from six to eight minutes with the aid of a portable elevator. Elevators also are used for rais ing or moving a wide variety of farm produce, including hay, loose or sacked grain. The use of elevators in farm work has been found highly desirable be cause of the freeing of labor for other tasks and the amount of time saved over the run of a crop year. DN-289 Efficient Typical injury on fruit from eye-spotted bud moth. The development &f a new and efficient dinitor fungicide and in secticide for orchard use has been announced by the manufacturer, Dow chemical company. The chemical is the triethanola mine salt of dinitro-sec-butylphenol and is effective against a wide range of fruit pests and diseases. First used experimentally during the 1942 season, the compound is now ready for commercial use un der the trade name DN-289. It is available as a stable, clear solution which containes eight ounces actual dinitro-scc-bi.iylphenol in each quart and which is readily miscible with water. DN-289 has shown high efficiency as an insecticide for use in the dor mant period against a variety of insects such as the rosy apple aphid, the currant aphid, the black cherry aphid, the mealy plum aphid, eye spotted bud moth, the cherry case-bearer, the pear psylla and oyster shell scale on apple and lilac. It also has given very prom ising results in control of the San Jose scale, scurfy scale and the eggs of the European red mite. As a fungicide, DN-289 has been used successfully for the control of sooty blotch on pears. The amounts of the compound required to attain good control ranges from one quart to two quarts in 100 gallons of water. Aphids are controlled with one quart, while two quarts are needed to kill bud moths, case-bearer and the pear psylla. Heavier concentrations may be needed to control oyster shell scale. Research workers are conducting extensive tests to find other in sects and diseases that may be con trolled with the chemical. MIRROR Of Your MIND 'Decisiveness' May Mask Fear By Lawrence Gould Can “decisiveness” mask secret fear? Answer: Yes—the fear of being or appearing “indecisive,” says Melitta Schmideberg in the Psy choanalytic Review., It is not “weakminded” to hear both sides of a question and take time to weigh them before coming to a conclusion, but some people who are basically sufferers from ambi valence and do not want to admit . it will compel themselves to make , “snap judgments” and will stick to these through thick and thin rather than face the painful truth that at heart they’re uncertain about everything and everybody. Can you tell if you have a “mother complex”? Answer: You have a mass of “associations” with your mother (which is all a “complex” is) if she brought you up, and If not, with anyone who took her place. And only the nature of these as sociations decides whether or how far this “complex” has kept you from growing up emotionally. If you still depend upon your mother or a “mother substitute” to bolster up your self-esteem and settle moral issues for you; if your con fidence in business depends on the knowledge that your mother (or your wife) “believes in you,"' then you have a "mother complex” in the bad sense. Is there any harmless drug for alcoholics? Answer: Not yet, anyhow, wamsi Dr. Edwin G. Zabriskie, eminent neurologist and chairman of a newly organized committee for the study of medical treatment of the "prob- 1 lem drinker.” The committee is seeking funds to investigate a drug known commercially as “antabus” on which favorable reports have been received from Denmark, but does not yet feel sure enough of its effects or its possible toxicity to advise releasing it for general use. In any case, "Medical treat ment must be followed by psych otherapy aimed at the social re building of the patient.” LOOKING AT RELIGION By DON MOORE | KEEPING HEALTHY \ Emotions Will Affect Circulation By Dr. James W. Barton W hen I wake in the morning, I find my heart rate usually about 48, sometimes 54. After lying awake and thinking over the plans for the day, I find my heart rate to be 68, sometimes 72. ■When I return home from boxing bouts, notwithstanding the fact that I did some boxing when young and have examined every heavy weight boxer except Gene Tunney, I find my heart rate up to 80. Apparently, although I re main calm, my thoughts are on every blow of the boxers and unconsciously I am delivering blows or warding them off. In other words our hearts beat faster and stronger and we pnmp extra blood when we are excited or upset in mind. We have our heart or blood pres sure tested or undergo a metabo lism test to find whether our thy roid gland is pouring a normal amount of juice into the blood (or less or more than normal), we are supposed to be in a complete rest ing state. Unfortunately for the test, if we have something on our mind, are worried about the out come of the test, the heart will be beating faster and harder and the blood pressure will be increased. In the Journal of Clinical Inves tigation, Drs. J. B. Hickman, W. H. Cargill and A. Golden point out that because physical rest does not mean emotional rest or relaxation, widely-different values are ob tained. A study of the effect of emotional disturbance (anxiety) in 23 unse lected medical students showed that the average output of blood from the heart was raised from 4.2 in the control period (that is, both mind and body were at rest) to 6.2 in the anxious period. ■ HEALTH NOTES H Ladino Clover Produces Better if Bee-Visited Ladino clover on which Dees were allowed to work freely pro duced 40 times as much seed as that from which bees were ex cluded, according to an experiment conducted by Dr. H. A. Scullen. From 100 clover seed heads worked by bees he obtained 13,946 seeds, while from 100 heads screened against bees he got oqt only 365 seeds, or fewer than four seeds per head. Any illness involves a certain amount of nervousness or mental disturbance. The patient wonders what is wrong, what the outcome may be. About one-half of all patients who consult their physi cians have no real physical or or ganic disease, but have symptoms which are the same or very sim ilar to those present in organic disease.

S. C. TMC Home Town m\ ftPOVTEP IN WASHINGTON Isolationism Exists T hat ISOLATIONISM is not dead. at least in the United States senate was clearly indicated when Sen. William E. Jenner (R-Ind.) In a three-hour speech on the senate floor called for repeal of the Mar shall plan; urged the senate to re fuse to approve further appropria tions for it; refused to adhere to any bi-partisan foreign policy; praised the action of Senators Lodge, Borah, Hi Johnson and other isolationists of the 1920 era in keep ing this country out of the League of Nations; declares this country is “hated around the world” be cause of our material possessions and our humanitarian attempts to relieve suffering and our out-pour ing of money to stay other Demo cratic governments; declared that World War II was not the result of our failure to join the League of Na tions, but mat it was “deliberately planned"; castigated our foreign policy and charged that “secret diplomacy is the rule and not the exception”; charged that this na tion "our own country and our own leaders have been a party to con spiracy which has permitted Rus sia to gain the place she holds to day In world affairs.” He charged that this country has directly violated the Atlan tic charter; that the signing of the Atlantic pact is what Rns- sia wants and will enable Rus sia to win the cold war without firing a shot; and the Hoosier senator predicted that the very countries we are helping to day will “automatically become Ingrates, hating us because we helped them.” Not in recent months has a more bitter speech been delivered on the floor of the United States senate. Some newspapers such as the Chi cago Tribune gave the senator’s speech banner headlines. Paradox ically, the senator’s home state metropolitan newspapers in In dianapolis gave his address scant attention. • • • Rural Renters Menaced There is every indication that the folks who rent property in the smaller towns and rural communi ties are due for substantial rent increases under the new rent con trol law recently passed by con gress lifting the bulk of respon sibility from the shoulders of con gress to local officials in the cities and towns and the governors of the several states. This is another in dication of the passing of that party and personal responsibility in this congress about which we wrote last week. Results wiU be certain aboli tion of rent control in rural areas, particularly in the South, and the southern solons could go along on this premise, since relatively few renters In the South are voters. But In north ern states and the larger cities there likely will be no decontrol because it would be political suicide for local officials to lift controls. So with rent controls In the North and no rent cont-'o) in the South, Just one more artificial barrier is created between the two sections of the nation., % • • Martin Policy Sound This reporter recently had a long talk with Congressman Joe Martin of Massachusetts. Although he has moved out of the speaker’s office which he occupied during the 80th congress, by virtue of his job as minority leader, he still rates a pretentious private office in the Capitol. It’s to be reached down a nar row corridor which slants off from the Hall of Statues. First on his program is a campaign to sell the American people on the record of the Republican party in both the 80th and the 81st congress. And his coal black eyes snap when he talks about it, for he believes if the people once “know the facts”, the results will be different in the next election. The canny New Englander has a down-to-earth philosophy with which few can disagree at least while he’s talking, using frequent gestures with a paper knife to punctuate his remarks. And apropos the position of Senator Jenner on our foreign policy, here’s Joe Martin’s position on foreign policy: "The United States has made its course, and we should all stick by it regardless of party.” • • • Futile Fiddling Freshman Sen. Hubert Humphrey (D-Minn.) in his maiden speech took occasion to castigate his col leagues for fiddling away so much time without accomplishing some legislation. Said the Minnesotan: “What the people want is for the senate to function. Sometimes I think we become so lazy . . . we feel so secure in our six-year term, we forget that the people want things done.” SCRIPTURE: Mark 11:1-11. IS-IS: Luke 19:26-48. DEVOTIONAL READING: Matthew 11:25-30. Jesus Is King Lesson for May 1, 1949 Dr. Foreman Use Easter Eggs for Place Cards (Stt Recipes Below) Easter Plans ONE OF THE TRADITIONAL highlights of Easter will probably be the coloring of Easter eggs. Though some adults think that coloring eggs is strictly child’s play and should be left to youngsters, a large percentage of grownups doesn’t agree. As a matter of fact, many people welcome Easter as a time when their artistic skill can be brought into full swing. You may make the eggs as elab orate or as simple as you like. Perhaps a few brightly colored eggs in a gay basket as a setting for the Easter breakfast table are all you’ll want. On the other hand, you may want to try out your skill at making faces or pencilling names on col ored eggs. With certified Easter egg col- ors that come with a handy writer, you’ll be able to create eggs as simple or professional as you like. Eggs will be effective and appropriate place cards at the East er dinner. Two appropriate creations cer tain to appeal are the pert bunny and a coy little chick. Stiff white cardboard is used for the base and for the stand-up collars that hold the eggs. Use yellow dye for the chicken. Rest the egg on a collar with a perky bow tied under the “chin.” Paint on eyelashes and attach a paper beak at the right place. Stand a feather up the back, and you’ll have a chicken everyone will love! The rabbit is prettiest when dyed light blue or pink. Use little white reinforcements (the kind the young sters get for notebook paper) for the eyes and mouth. Bits of white string tucked under the “mouth” make whiskers and long, tapering pieces of crepe paper make the ears. Turn the collar down in front to make a pointed collar and the bunny is complete. • * * EASTER DINNER might be built around Iamb with appropriate sauce and spring vegetables. ■Roast Leg of Lamb Have leg of lamb boned and rolled by the butcher. Wipe with a damp cloth. Mix together the fol lowing: one-third cup fat or salad oil, one minced clove of garlic, two teaspoons marjoram, three- fourths teaspoon powdered mus tard, one tea spoon salt and one - half tea spoon paprika. Rub the mixture over the meat before roasting. For boned, rolled leg of lamb, set the oven slow (325°) and roast! with out water or other liquid, 45 min utes to the pound if the meat weighs between four and five pounds. For a heavier leg of lamb, roast 42 minutes per pound at the same temperature. * • • HAVE YOU EVER tried sweet potatoes with lamb? They’re a de licious combination. Here are two recipes from which you may take your choice. Sweet Potato Puffs (Serves 6) 3 large sweet potatoes LYNN SAYS: Here’s What to Do With Easter Eggs Eggs decorated for Easter may be used in many different ways to add nourishment as well as interest to meals. They should be hard- cooked before decorating, of course! Mix the whites of four hard- cooked eggs with two cups of white sauce and pour this over toast. Press the yolks through a sieve to decorate the tops of the creamed whites.

Pack tht mixture into small cups and chill r f IS A SIN to tell the truth out of season. So declares a famous Protestant creed. It is not always good nor wise to tell everybody everything you know. Keeping your mouth shut may be one of the best things you ever do. Jesus himself knew how to keep a secret till time to tell it. He never uttered- an untruth about himself, but for a long time he did not openly de clare his conviction. In spite of be ing pestered to say Yes or No about it. The question was: Are you the Messiah? This was the same as asking. Are you the King? Jesus would not say Yes, because the mere word would be taken to mean '•‘revolutionist” or “traitor.” But he would not say No, because he was a King; Indeed of all men he had the best right to the title. Royal Entrance B UT WHEN the time came, Jesus did declare himself king in a spectacular way. We know the story as the ‘Triumphal Entry in to Jerusalem,” the story of Palm Sunday, now so fresh in our minds. Jesus lived in a nation of people who were familiar with the mean ing of symbols, both in word and action. When Jesns rode into the ancient capital where his fore fathers reigned, astride a mole colt, the people knew, and h< knew they would know, that this was not just somebody riding a mule on a Sunday morning. In the history of the Hebrews, mules were the steeds of kings. King Solomon was crowned riding on a mule. There was t famous prophecy (Zech. 9:9) that when Jerusalem's great king should come, he would be riding on just such a royal steed. So when Jesus rode into Jerusalem, the people threw their palm branches and shouted their welcome, not to the teacher and prophet, but to the King. • • • Tears in Triumph I T WAS NOT altogether a vic torious occasion. Jesus knew too well how cheap and easy “dem onstrations” can be. In his mind’* eye he could see a cross standing outside Jerusalem, and in his inner ear he could hear this same dusty- throated mob, now shouting “Hosanna! ”, yelling instead “Crucify him!” Tears stood in Jesus’ eyes. But they were not tears for himself; he never wasted energy in self-pity. They were tears for that blind city, tears for its coming destruction — the city that did not know the way to peace • * » Master of the Temple B older than jesus’ triumphal entry was what he did inside the city. It was one thing to claim royal rights over the nation; but at the temple Jesus’ claims reached far higher. It should be remem bered that in the eyes of all Jewo at that time the Temple was afiso- lutely sacred. It represented ’he dwelling-place of the invisible Cod. Now the priests at that time were more profiteers and politicians than priests. They carried on what to day we call a “racket” in the sale of animals for sacrifice and in changing the ordinary money of all countries into the local Jewish shekel (in which coin alone could temple offerings be paid). I The racket was notorious; every decent Jew hated the priestly profiteers. But no one had ever done anything about it, for that would mean assum ing an authority over the temple that no man dared to assume. But Jesus took it on himself. His direct and even violent action in smashing the racketeering ring was • mark of something more than ordinary self-confidence. He laid claim to being no less than the Master of God’s Temple. He was acting In the name of God and with the authority of God. • • • Master of Man W HEN THE CHRISTIAN church calls Jesus "Lord” and "King" today, we are making no claim (or him which he did not make for him self. What we mean by these titles is that Jesus Christ, for us and for all men, is the authority above all others.
