Plant Starvation Lowers Com Yield Lack of Phosphate May Be Factor in Failure By checking signs of plant food starvation on the corn you harvest ed this fall, you can take steps to Increase yields next year. For example, if the corn in your crib has a lot of ears like those in the accompanying illustration, the crop was starved for phosphate. The reason for this was that part ol the silks came out too late to catch any pollen. The kernels were not fertilized and so failed to fill out. The unfilled rows or parts of rows make the ears lopsided and curled. Crop starved for phosphate is illustrated by ears above. Ears are twisted and whole rows of kernels failed to fill. You can add phosphate to the soil next spring through the use of fer tilizers carrying this plant nutrient. But well-nourished com needs oth er elements besides phosphate. It needs nitrogen and potash, too. So the surest ?pay to keep your corn healthy and well fed and to get high yields per acre, is to give your soil a balanced supply of plant foods carrying all three major elements— nitrogen, phosphate and potash. Good soil tilth ift another essential getting high corn fields. You in build tilth and put the soil in le coadition for Rowing com, falfa and sweet clover, mellow the loosen tight compactions below plow layer and make the soil more porous so water and air can get in. USDA Recommends DDT For Termite Control The U.S. department of agricul ture has come up with the answei for one of the farmers’ serioui problems—termites. The USDA says a single treat ment of DDT will prevent termites from attacking woodwork for ai least five years^fcnd anyone can ap ply the treatment. Here’s the mix ture to use: 5 per cent DDT in No. 2 fuel oil. It will give wooden structures complete protection from termites. Entomologists suggest digging a trench along the building’s founda tion—about 30 inches deep and aboul the width of a spade. Then the earth should be saturated at toe bot tom with the DDT preparation. The toil which is used to fill up the trench also should be saturated. Ap ply the treatment at the rate of one Quart per cubic foot of soil.

It’s smart of her at these times, especially, to get milk in to foods that will be eaten. Since desserts are bound to ap- peal to the youngsters, make them extra nutritious with milk. If you’re budget con scious, you may use nonfat dry milk which has only water and fat removed, and all calcium, protein, riboflavin and lactose left in. If your source of fluid milk is readily available, there are many ways in which to use this In the diet, especially in milk desserts. * • • HERE’S A LEMON Fluff Pudding which gives you just the right milk- rich dessert you want for a hearty meaL Served with a creamy cus tard sauce, you’ll have no problem serving seconds. •Lemon Fluff Padding (Serves 6-8) 1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin % cnp cold water 1 cnp boiling water % cnp sugar % teaspoon salt K cap lemon juice % cup nonfat dry milk K cnp water Soften gelatin in cold water for 5 minutes.

Brooklyn Indian Scares Housewife With Scalping Knife NEW YORK—A resident of a Brooklyn apartment house told the Flatbush court an Indian working as an elevator operator in the build ing has some rights, but she doesn’t believe they include wearing a “scalping knife’’ and hanging a modified war club in his elevator. Mrs. George Hagopian, one of the 12 tenants in the building, said that it had taken a little time to get used to Chief Reindeer, otherwise known as “Joe” when he went to work as superintendent and elevator opera tor—not that his strangeness was entirely distasteful. She thought his custom of wear ing his hair in a braid was novel when h$ occasionally stuck a gay feather into his coiffure, it lent a romantic touch that bright ened all of Flatbush. However, she said the elevator service was poor. You could “ring and ring*’ before the car came and it did not do much good to com plain. Once, she added, wlien the did complain. Chief Reindeer re plied: “This is my country, you leave.** „ „ Mrs. Hagopian reminded him of a real estate transaction involving Manhattan island and $24 worth of trinkets. Neither was calm enough at the time to speculate on how Brooklyn was included in the par cel. In any event, the Indian direct ed her attention to a knife in his belt, which terminated the argu ment, she said. Mrs. Hagopian said that she was afraid of being scalped. She said that other tenants had been in sulted and that several had signed a petition to the landlord for the chief’s removaL The building’s owner was ad vised to keep the chief under wraps. Black Eyed Peas Confuse New Bean Sorting Machine WASHINGTON — The govern ment has developed a bean sort ing machine in Which a tele vision tube “eye” picks the bad from the good. The machine can scan 3,780 beans a minute, and eject any that does not conform to a nor mal color pattern. Some 100 are being used at the Chester B. Brown plant at Gering, Neb. They can be adjusted to sort beans of any color, even pintos, it is reported, but the so-called black eyed pea (experts call it a bean, too) has the TV eye stumped. It" can’t tell the dif ference between a bad pea’s discoloration and the distinc tive black eye on a good one. It’s another mystery that science has not explained yet. Wisconsin Town Loses Tax Rovonuo Over Technicality WAUSAU, WIS. — Sam Niger has the town in an uproar. And it is through no particular fault of his own. Sam’s property sits astride the city limits. His barn is in the city of Wausau and his house is in the county of Wausau. Last year he asked the Wisconsin Fuel & Light company to hook him up to f ie gas mains. It meant a 300-foot exten sion of the mains, but the company obligingly made the connection. Sam’s gas hookup has had far reaching results. Previously the company serving only city cus tomers, had been classifed - as a private utility and paid its taxes directly to the city. When the com pany first started serving Sam, outside the city limits, it became a public utility. From now on it will pay its taxes to the state, the de partment of taxation has ruled. That’s good for the gas company but bad for the city. Last year the company paid $14,900 in taxes on a city tax rate of $36 per $1,000 valuation. This year the company will have to pay only $11,205 in taxes, because the state rate is $27 per $1,000 valuation. Of this tax money collected by the state, the city will get half, or $5,600. Wausau officials, aggrieved at the prospect of an annual $9,340 revenue loss, are reported to be toying with the idea of "annex* ing” Sam Nigar’s house. 300-MHe Tunnel Planned To Drain Huge Coal Field WASHINGTON — A 300-mile-long twin bore tunnel to open vast hard coal reserves now under water in central Pennsylvania is being planned by the bureau of mines. S. A. Ash, chief of the bureau’s safety branch, said the tunnel—the longest of its kind—should be con structed from the central Pennsyl vania coal field to Tidewater near Havre de Grace, Md. The project would cost from 300 to 500 million dollars. Ash said, but would have a double barreled pur pose. While opening new anthracite reserves in an area now producing more than 500 million dollars worth of coal a year, it also would carry 600,000 gallon of water a minute through a heavily populated Indus-* 1 trial ' area which is frequently threatened with water shortages. This water would provide a new source of electric power to sup plement supplies in an industrial area roughly from Jersey City to Baltimore, Ash said. He added that the drainage would double the re maining life of the Pennsylvania anthracite field MIRROR Of Your Worry Doesn't ■ ■ ^ f Connote Love By Lawrence Gould, Does “worrying over” someone mean you love him? Answer: No. In its extreme form, it is more likely to mean the exact opposite. If for no good reason you live in continual dread that “some thing terrible will happen” to a per son whom you believe you love, what you may well really be afraid of is thfrt your unconscious wish to hurt him or get him out of the way may come true. The mother who “cannot let a child out of her sight,” for instance, frequently is one who did not want him to be born and feels that caring for him is a crush ing burden. Real love “casteth out fear.**./ *, Can you be “too tired to think”? Answer: Not really. You may un consciously resent so intensely be ing forced to concentrate on busi ness problems and ignore your private interests that you can’t make yourself go on any longer. But as Dr. Mortimer Ostow tells us in the Journal of Nervous and Mental Diseases, thinking in itself requires almost no measurable amount of energy and so is not ham|>ered, even by complete physi cal exhaustion. If your thinking leads to the solution of some prob lem about which you have been con fused and anxious, it may actually rest you. Does what you imagine show ’ your true self? Answer: Yes. You can learn' relatively little about anyone by asking him direct questions, since all that the answers will reveal will be his conscious feelings, which may be the opposite of his real ones. But by using what is known as the “projective technique” — asking someone what he “sees” in a series of ink-blots or having him tell the story that a picture makes him think of—you can get him to show more about himself than he knows, let alone reiillzes he is revealing. But interpreting his answers takes a skilled technician. 77ME WORD "rMBeGMACte* ORIGINALLY MEANT CIASDI A -rtTk.lT" m i-r ocv-ern/rrr-i i at-cp i-r-e WHICH MOSES CONSTRUCTED UNDER DIV AS A PLACE FOR WORSHIP BV THE JEWS. ION — — KEEPING HEALTHY ( ndicitis Death Rate Reduced S OME YEARS AGO a cartoonist pictured two trees standing side by side, on one of which the tree surgeon had finshed his operation by applcations of cement. One tree was saying to the other, “Did I tell you about my operation?” The car toon apeared about the time that operations for removal of the ap pendix were so common and the con versation at bridge, golf, or other games naturally was about these operations. We do not hear or read so much these days about operations; such conversations today are usually about blood pressure because heart and brain attacks are in most cases caused by high blood pressure. I have written before of what was called the Philadelphia experiment in which the physcians, and citi zens also, of that city determined to establish a record in reducing the deaths from appendicitis. The effort to reduce the death rate was so successful that a world’s record was established. Three rules were By Dr. James W. Barton followed: (1) no purgative, (2) no food, (3) early operation. These suggestions are now being fQUqwqd ; practically all over the world. v' a !, In Archives of Surgery, Chicago; • Drs. L. R. Slattery, S. A* X£ rmit . e !- li and J. W. Hinton, state that ’diir- * ing the past 10 years there has been a spectacular drop in the death rate of acute* appendicitis: There' were ’ 14,313 deaths due to appendicitis ip. the United States in 1939, while in 1946 there were only 5,285. The greatest single factor in re ducing the deatii rate has been the greater number of patients seen‘in’ the early stages of the disease. “Public Health education apd In creased alertness of the medical' profession are responsible fdr much ot this improvement.” Added to this is tiiat peritonitis which causes so many deaths, is now prevented by the use of the sulfa drugs and peni cillin. These drugs kill harmful or ganisms and prevent complications ' which may follow operation. In pernicious anemia, there is lack or loss of an important ferment in the stomach digestive juice, but by digesting the protein part of liver extract by use of ferment papain, this lack is corrected. • • • In the recent examination of the boys of a large reformatory school.

Phene S-IISS. NEW YORK—A new treatment for alcoholism and. the discovery of a definite physical factor that may be responsible for the alcohol crav ing in man has been reported by medical research. 3 Y The new treatment is based on ait entirely new concept of the un derlying organic cause, or causes of alcoholism. It came through ob servations which indicated that many problem drinkers suffer from a glandular deficiency, cor rection of which eliminates, at least temporarily, the insane crav ing for drink. Doctors have found that the chronic alcoholic suffers from a de ficiency in the hormones secreted by the outer layer, or cortex, of the adrenal glands. These are the two all-important glands located astride each kidney. This deficiency, they conclude, initiates a cycle of events that leads the victim to find relief in alcohol, which actually makes the condition worse, thus aggravat ing the craving for more alcohol. ^ -Craving Killed That being the case, the physi cians reasoned, the only obvious way to break the vicious circle is to correct the glandular deficiency. This can be accomplished by the injection of small quantities of ex tract from' the adrenal glands of slaughtered cat&e. When this is done, the patient not •only sobers bp, but no longer has any craving K Dr. >. to Jth, director of research on alcoholism at the New York university Bellevue medical center, believes that patients with acute alcoholic intoxication, acute alcoholic hallucinations, or acute al coholic psychoses “will be brought under control well within 24 hours by adrenal cortical extract given by vein.” Hangovers, which are not pe culiar to alcoholics but are a sequel to overindulgence in alcohol by any persons “can be abolished quite readily by the injection* of rh e adrenal cortical extract. Delirium tremens —■ the dreaded DTs — re sponds in a similar manner.” Five Year Goal Set Once the acute phase of alco holism is brought successfully un der control, attention can be turned to the more important problem of chronic alcoholism—to make the drinker abstain. Dr. Smith and his group are convinced that the al coholic is suffering fundamentally from a deficiency in hormones of the pituitary gland. This, in turn, leads tcT a malfunctiohlng of the adj^nal glands and frequently also of the sex glands. Give t^e drinker enough hormones, they find, and he will /lotjjcraVe liquor. “The goal in the treatment of alcoholism,” says Dr. Smith, “must be to devise a therapy that will enable the person who is toddy an alcoholic and who today cannot drink, to drink normally. Although this goal not yet has been reached, work being done at present indi cates that its attainment is in sight, and I think that it will be reached well within five years’ time.** BUSINESS A INVEST.
