malting barley contest conducted
in seven midwest states by the
Midwest Barley Improvement
Association, receives his awards
from Herbert H. Ladish, treas
urer of the association, in cere
monies held in Minneapolis.
In addition to the regional award,
Moore received the first Wisconsin
state prize of $500, a county prize
of $25, and state and county tro
phies. In the final judging, Moore’s
Barley competed with samples from
more than 125 carloads of the grain
grown by contestants in the seven-
state area. The prize-winning barley
was of the Kindred variety, and was
grown on 50 acres of Moore’s 186
acre farm.
The prize-winning barley was se
lected by a committee of judges
which included representatives of
the U. S. department of agriculture.
Each farmer taking part in the
competition was required to enter
a full carload of barley, or to join
with not more than four other bar
ley growers in making up a carload
shipment. Only varieties of barley
approved for malting purposes in
each of the seven states was ac
cepted in the competition. Samples
from contest cars were used as the
basis for judging the grain.
Sons or daughters of cash prize
winners who assisted in growing the
crop and who were between the
ages of 1$ and 21, received special
farm youth award prizes equal to
10 per cent of the cash prizes won
by the parent.
Diy Crib Com
Farmers with corn in the crib
are beginning to have a few ques
tions in their minds. Some of the
com may be quite high in moisture
content and warmer weather will
add to the problems of handling the
com.
W. H. Sheldon, agricultural en
gineer at Michigan state college,
says that wet corn will keep indef
initely while frozen. The problem is
what to do with the wet com that is
still in the crib when warmer
weather returns.
One solution is to feed it out
before the weather warms up. How
ever, in many cases large quanti
ties may be on hand and cannot be
Used rapidly.
Experiments in Michigan,
Ohio, Indiana, Him. is and
Iowa, have shown that heated air
can be used to dry wet com. Blow
ing unheated air through the crib
with a hay drier fan will not take
out very much water, but it will
keep the com as cool as the air and
greatly retard mold growth.
Fruit Jars Usable
In Fumigant Spray
If the garden plot is small, J. C.
Ford, Auburn Polytechnic Insti
tute extension service garden spe
cialist says, the correct amount of
fumigant per row can best be ap
plied by using a fruit jar.
A 10-or-20-penny nail hole should
be made near one margin of the
jar lid through which to pour the
liquid. A somewhat smaller ail
hole is necessary near the opposite
aide of the lid.
Answer: No. It will work in most
cases, but there are some people
who are actually frightened by kind
treatment They believe this is be
cause they are afraid you’re trying
to put something over on them, but
what really terrifies them is the pos
sibility that you may be sincere.
For a person of this type has built
his life around the idea that every
one is against him, and excuses his
bad disposition as well as his fail
ures by the fact that no one ever
gave him a break. To admit that
you were kind would break down
his defenses.
Can inhibitions be a cause
of illness?
Answer: Definitely, writes Dr. Sid
ney Tarachow of New York in the
Psychiatric Quarterly. He main
tains that there is a whole "syn
drome” (a pattern of symptoms)
which results when inhibitions pre
vent our releasing inner tension by
•xpressing strong emotions such as
love or anger. The "syndrome of
inhibition” includes fatigue, mi
graine headaches, lowered immuni
ty to infection, an exaggerated im
pulse to cough, sleepiness, constipa
tion, itching and hives, and several
other ills for which no adequate
cause had been discovered.
Can a child spend too much
time with grown-ups?
Answer: Yes, once he has ceased
to be a baby. The mark of normal
development from infancy to child
hood is a growing preference for the
society of other children and com
paratively little inclination to stay
with his parents except when he’s
sick or sleepy. A child who spends
much time even with his mother
after he is old enough for school
either remains too much dependent
on her or is "over-stimulated” into
trying to behave and think as she
does. And this makes him feel "in
adequate” because he cannot really
keep up with an adult.

KEEPING HEALTHY
Frustration and Overweight
By Dr. James
np HOSE of normal weight know
that when they are upset in
mind, they are not hungry; and if
they do eat, they are often sorry.
One naturally would think, there
fore, that this same rule would
work out on overweights because
they usually are jovial in disposi
tion and so emotional disturbances
would upset them even more, and
so greatly reduce their appetite.
As a matter of fact, nervous
ness and emotional disturbances
appear to have the opposite ef
fect. Thus, we learn that obes
ity (overweight) largely Is a
compensation for frustration and
is explained by the eating of
more food than is required.
We are familiar with the fact that
many nervous Individuals who have
a problem they are trying to solve,
a conflict which occupies much of
their time, eat poorly. When they
have their problem solved or their
conflict settled, they begin to eat
and sleep better.
W. Barton
It has been found that those
who already are overweight and
those beginning to accumulate
excess fat, when they have a
problem to face or some of their
hopes have been frustrated,
that, instead of eating less food,
they find themselves eating more
in an effort to make up to their
bodies for the frustration that
has occurred in their minds.
It must be admitted, of course,
that when not enough juice is manu
factured by the thyroid gland or the
pituitary gland, there will be excess
fat accumulated.
But it can easily be seen how a
frustrated woman or man may sit
with a box of candies or rich food
available and continue to eat and
eat to make up for this frustration.
And the comfort and satisfaction of
eating seems to make up or satisfy
the emotions caused by frustration.
It just seems a nice, pleasant way
to overcome disappointment by sat
isfying the appetite.
It is because cancer of the stom
ach gives few, if any, evidences or
symptoms that it is not always rec
ognized in time to be treated to save
the patient’s life. It is hoped that it
will soon be possible to detect early
cancer of the stomach by examining
cells obtained from a smear of the
uterus, kidney, bladder and from
bronchial tubes, so that beneficial
treatment may be commenced.
It is only too true that where
there is a lack of enough food there is
always a parallel lack of the pro
teins — meat, eggs, fish — and un
fortunately in most cases a greater
lack or shortage of proteins in pro
portion to the lack of other foods.
Thus, the shortage of rice and tapi
oca containing but a small percent
age of proteins is less than tha
foods rich in proteins.
North Atlantic Security
T here will be no Senator Henry
Cabot Lodge Sr. to organize
and lead a Republican opposition
to the ratification by the senate
of our part in the North Atlantic
Security Pact, as there was for
President Wilson’s League of Na
tions. Such opposition as may de
velop will not be along party lines.
Senator Vandenburg is for ratify
ing the pact. As the molder of Re
publican foreign policies, he will
lead the party away from opposition
rather than make an effort to pre
vent ratification.
There will be some opposition,
but it will be individual rather than
party. Some members of the sen
ate will follow the advice of the
immortal Washington, and vote
against what they consider “for
eign entanglements.” There will be
several such senators representing
both parties, but there will not be
a sufficient number to prevent
ratification, and they will not at
tempt any radical methods to pre
vent tnat ratification.
It was only a brief 30 years
ago when Senator Lodge, as the
Republican foreign relations
leader, prevented the ratifica
tion of the League of Nations
treaty. What might have hap
pened had this country taken
its place at the council table
of that international organiza
tion is anybody’s guess.
I was in Europe when the Armis
tice that ended that struggle was
signed. A few days before that
event—I believe it was on Novem
ber 5—I was one of a party of Amer
ican newspapermen in the Grand
hotel in Paris. Charles Wheeler,
then a member of the staff of the
Paris editioh of the Chicago Trib
une, joined the group. The Paris
Tribune had just received a “flash”
saying that when the Armistice
was signed. President Wilson would
head the American peace delega
tion in Paris.
I said to that little group that
should the President do that he
would be making a grave mistake
that would cost him the national
and world leadership he then en
joyed; that if he would name a
strong bi-partisan peace delega
tion and would stay in Washington
to direct the activities of the Amer
ican delegation from there, he
could dominate the peace confer
ence and put through the idealis
tic international organization he
was insisting upon, and others in
the group agreed.
President Wilson did not stay
in Washington; he did not send,
or lead, a bi-partisan peace del
egation. The Republican-con
trolled senate had no part in
the peace negotiations. In the
end the League of Nations, as
it was written into the peace
treaty, was only n portion of
the Wilson dream. It was re
sented by the Republicans be
cause they had no place, or
part, in its negotiation. Politi
cal rancor defeated it in so far
as American participation was
concerned. In the end we made
a separate peace with Ger
many.
All that is water over the dam.
What might have been can be only
a guess. Personally I believe the
League of Nations would have
worked had it included the voice—
and influence of America; that our
voice and influence would have pre
vented the Italian invasion of Ethi
opia and would have prevented the
aggression of Hitler, and the sec
ond world war.
President Truman has not made
the errors that caused President
Wilson’s failure. True, he has not
had the same opportunities for er
rors, but instead he has encouraged
and promoted a bi-partisan con
sideration of our foreign policy,
both Republicans and Democrats
have had a part in forming that
policy. As a result, there will be
no party organization to oppose the
ratification of the North Atlantic
Pact. Whatever opposition there
may be will be that of individuals
who are convinced that it is best
for us to continue to follow Wash
ington’s advice against "foreign
entanglements.”
Whether our ratification of that
pact will lead to peace or to war can
be only a guess. My guess would
be on the side of peace. Russia will
hesitate to start a conflict she
could not feel sure of winning. If
we do not ratify we encourage Rus
sia to continue her process of gob
bling up one after another of
European and Asiatic nations.

Is the army playing fair with the
reserve officers who have been on
active duty during and since the
war? Judging from personal obli
gations, I would say these officers
are not being fairly treated. I per
sonally know reserve officers who
wish to make a career in the army.
They are kept on the reserve list,
are not awarded promotions and
can be dropped from active duty
any day. They receive no encour
agement to stay in the armed ser
vice. Such treatment is not fair
to the reserve officers.
Ice Cream, Cake Make
Acceptable Desserts
For Nearly Every Meal
THERE’S NOTHING FANCY
about ice cream and cake, but
they make a wonderful dessert for
any occasion, plain or fancy. Then,
too, there are few who can resist
turning down a heaping bowl of
creamy ice cream and a slice of
leather-like cake, so you have no
worry about pleasing family or
guests.
For youngsters who have dif
ficulty getting their daily quota of
milk and other
dairy foods, ice
cream i s the
perfect answer.
The same i s
true, too, of
adults who can
not drink their
pint of milk.
Ice cream is a highly nutritious
dairy food that furnishes energy as
well as minerals such as calcium
and phosphorus. It also gives sig
nificant amounts of vitamins A and
B2 and quality protein, all of which
are needed for proper growth,
strong muscles, bones and teeth.
You don’t need to do anything
special to make a festive dessert
out of ice cream. Simply pile it
in a glass bowl for easy serving

When you roast beef or lamb,
cut small slits in the fat of the
meat and insert in these small
slivers of garlic. This adds a lot
of flavor to the meat that many
like. Remove garlic before serving.

Rules of Temperance
Lesson for April 24, 1949
T HERE IS REALLY something
funny about it. Consider a
First Church congregation singing:
"Jesus, I my cross have taken.
All to leave and follow thee;
Destitute, despised, forsaken.
Thou from hence my All shalt be.”
Oh, come, come, ladies and gen
tlemen! Your cross? Where is it?
"All to leave”—?
You are going right
back to your homes
for an extra-good
Sunday dinner. "De
stitute”—? (Some
congregations, be
lieve it or not, ac
tually sing "naked,
poor,” instead of
“destitute.”) Not a
one of you ever has j> r> Foreman
been on relief; you
probably have more money in the
bank than most of the people who
didn’t come to church.
Some People Cannot
Be Christians
I T MAY BE FUNNY to compare
what the congregation is singing
about themselves with what they
really are. But it is sad, too, be
cause that hymn illustrates how
foggy-minded somh Christians are
about their own “cross.”
They can sing blithely about
it, and even complain (In song)
about their own condition as
something for the Salvation
Army to look into, when they
don’t mean a word of it.
The fact is, Jesus did demand just
the thing the hymn describes. He
said, in so many words, "Whoso
ever doth not bear his cross and
come after me cannot be my dis
ciple.”
• • •
What Did Jesus Mean?
T HERE ARE TWO ways cs mis
understanding Jesus here. One
wrong line is taken by those who
think Jesus did not mean a word he
said. The other wrong line is taken
by a very few people, a very few in
deed, who take Jesus absolutely lit
erally. They believe that no one
can be a true, 100 per cent Chris
tian, usless and until he gives up all
his property, all his family, and
lives alone and wild, a hermit in the
wilderness. The facts show that
both these interpretations are false.
The world has never been really
made better, either by selfish, com
fort-loving, worldly Christians, or by
the wild and woolly hermits who are
clean "out of this world."
“Love Thyself Last”
T HE WISEST, the most devoted
Christians, have known better
what Jesus meant. Jesus' own
parable of the “rich fool” gives us
the hint. He tells of a man who had
everything he wanted . . . but when
he came to die, discovered he had
nothing. In that little story Jesus
shows us a man who put himself be
fore all other persons; who put him
self before God; and who put things
before character. He lived for his
body, he lived for his comforts, he
lived for himself.
The neighbors, maybe, called
him smart because he was rich;
but God called him a fool, and
what God calls a man, that he
is.
Taking the cross means living as
Jesus lived, not as that fool lived.
Christian’s and Liquor Don’t Mix
C ONSIDER JUST ONE illustration
of what Jesus means. Should
a Christian drink alcoholic liquors?
If you are not a Christian, you can
try to answer this from non-Chris
tian reasons; but that is not the
question. Shall a Christian drink?
Just think about this in the light of
what Jesus said. The disciple of
Christ will deny hiidself; does the
drinker deny himself? The dis
ciple of Christ will put Christ first
always; but what does the drinker
put first? Jesus called a man a fool
who lived for his bodily pleasure,
lived for himself; what would he
call the man who thinks he can
"take it or leave it” but who is ac
tually tied to his bottles?
It is true, a selfish man may
perhaps (for selfish reasons,
such as saving money) deny
himself liquor, tobacco, or even
tea and coffee, and still be no
Christian.
But a man who really denies him
self, who loves himself last, will
find that other self-denials follow as
a matter of course. A man who
lets his appetite dictate to him, es
pecially his appetite for alcohol, is
i man who is letting real self starve.
