Dr. Walker said, is a natural
one. Blood that is full of toxins
causes thei tissues to break
down. Nature filters in calcium
to replace dead , tissue.
“This is the process in prac
tically every disease,” Dr. Walk
er .said. “It occurs in tuberculos-
i.s and arthritis. First there is
inflammation, then breaking
down of tissue. Then gangrene
sets in, or the blood transfers
calcium, hardening the infected
area.
“In Miss Braytou’s case, her
entire system was toxic. Nature,
following its normal process,
filtered calcium from the food
supply and bones. We hope to
reverse the natural processes by
denying her body calcium in
food.”
, By this means, it is hoped the
blood may extract calcium trom
calcified tissues, restoring it to
the bones.

per acre we must improve our
soil. I firmly believe our great
est need, a.* farmers, is a more
fertile soil. There are a good
many ways by which we can im
prove soil, but the very best and
most lasting way is by keeping
cows. If we select good cows
and feed them well they will pay
for their keep—l)esides producing
a big lot of the very best ferti
lizer known.. If we keep cows
we must prepare pasture for sum
mer and good hay for winter.
One of the best hays is made from
soybeans. Plenty of good soy
bean hay and a liberal amount of
silage from a trench silo is one
of the cheapest ways to winter
cows. Then a good pasture can
be made by sowing orchard grass,
red top and lespedeza.
Don’t forget to remodel the old
barn, make a lounging room, de
horn the cows and keep them
all toge'ber. By tills method we
can produce a large amount of
the very best fertilizer. We are
sadly lacking in iiorses and mules
for farm work. In the whole
county we have only 1,387 horse.s
and 2.577 mules, making a total
of 3.961. considerably less than
one per farm. We have a little
more than one milk cow per farm
and about the same number of
other cattle.
In conclusion, let me say you
had better sow some lespedeza
seed right away. Sow on wheat,
rye or oats. Don't buy the cheap
est seed you can find, but good
clean seed. It is mighty easy to
stock your farm with wild on
ions, Johnson grass or dodder.
When once started on a farm it
is hard to eradicate. Buy soy
beans now to sow for hay.
Another good thing to do for
soil improvement is to sow les
pedeza and let it stand for two
years. By doing this we can
double our corn yield. In fact,
we need more sod to keep our
.soil from washing away. One of
the greatest needs is terracing
our field.*. .Much more plant
food washes away than is taken
out by crops. Another very im
portant thing is crop rotation.
By rotating our crops we can
have a sod one year in three and
thereby save much washing and
leaching out the plant food. We
have five farmers who are ro
tating their crops under super
vision of a specialist from the
extension service. These farm
ers are well pleased with re
sults.

HENDREN PLEADS
FOR IMPROVEMENT
OF VVILKES FARMS
,\GE in hnsines.s
I know a New York business
man who says he is all through
with hiring young men and
young women for jobs that call
for Intelligence, industry and
attentiveness. He replaced his
girl switchboard operator the
other day with a man of fifty,
and says that for the first time
people who call up from the out
side get courteous attention and
his outgoing calls are handled
promptly and efficiently.
He has a woman of forty-odd,
a widow with several children,
as head of his stenographic staff.
She doesn't waste his time and
money by using the office tele
phone to makes dates with boy
friends, nor doe.s she rebel a-
gainst overtime work in emer
gencies. Moreover, she takes
pains to understand what her
job is all about.
About the only reason for
hiring young folks is that they
come cheap. It takes a long time
for most of them to learn what
work really means, my friend
sa.vs, and to learn how to work
efficiently. .Many never do.
1 think he is more than half
right.

SOFT and selfish
I was struck by a phrase ut
tered a little while ago by the
Rev. Ernest .M. Stires, Episcopal
Bishop of Long Island. “Our
great problem,” he said, “is the
number of intelligent people who
are morally unemployed.’’
He was talking about the
great mass of “good'’ people who
have grown so soft that they are
unwilling to do anything that
involves sacrifice or inconven
ience, even though they might
be of service to individuals or to
the social order.
I am not quite in agreement
with Dr. Stires' suggestion that
the enthusiasm and self-sacri
fice of great masses of people tor
the causes of Sovietism, Naziism
and Fascism indicates a better
moral tone than we have in A-
nierica. I thjnk most of the popu
lar enthusiasm for those causes
is the result of force and terror
ism. and I am not at all convinc
ed that the real enthusiasts, the
leaders, are making any personal
sacrifices.
I am fully In accord, however,
with the idea that we have been
bringing up a generation com
posed largely of those who put
self-gratification first in its code
and are too soft and lazy to give
serious attention t> anything
else.

GL.A6IOR the city
Twenty-two college girls from
Missouri came to Nsw York on
a sightseeing trip a week or two
ago. They were tremendously
disappointed in the city as a
show place'. Skyscrapers didn’t
interest them; they expected to
see something of the glamor of
metropolitan life as pictured in
lot of uninteresting, rather nar
row streets, with people who
the movies. AH they saw was a
dressed and looked about like
those back home.
As a "show” city New York
doesn’t begin to compare with
Chicago, where every natural
beauty has been enhanced by the
wonderful system of parks and
connecting boulevards and the
water front has been made Into
the most valuable aesthetic asset
the city has. The glamor of New
York is for the Initiated alone
All that a stranger can get of it
is what he can pay for. He can
buy theatre seats or be neatly
trimmed In night-clubs, but the
real life of New York is not on
public view.
Someone said not long ago
that while New York is the*liii|f*
WIND In Buffalo
One of my earliest childhood
memories is of my father saying
to me: “When you see a man
who grabs hold of his hat before
he turns any street corner, you
can be sure he comes from Buf
falo.’’ I have known Buffalo,
more or less, for more than sixty
years. I lived there for ten con
tinuous years, from 1891 to
1901. I learned there to scoff at
the notion that Chicago was en
titled to be called the “Windy
City.” We used to be proud of
our wind in Buffalo.
Now comes along the U. S.
Weather Bureau and says that
Buffalo last year was first a-
mong cities in the number of
days on which the wind blew
faster than 32 miles an hour; it
had 97 such days. Chicago was
’way down toward the bottom of
the list, with only six days of
high winds.
But, after living for several
years in Chicago, also. I want to
remark that when the wind
blows off Lake Michigan you
know it! Also, that the hottest
winds I ever encountered are
those that come to Chicago from
the West, across a thousaud
miles of sunbaked prairie.
F.AKES in the news
The other day a news story
came in from India telling of the
discovery of the remains of a
tribe of pigmy people only 15
inches tall, together with the
bones of a tiny horse of propor
tionate dimensions. A few days
later a doctor reported to a
medical convention in New Or
leans that an African native wo
man had recently given birth to
six children ,at. one time, going
.Mrs. Diijj^e ^he better.
It turns'out'that the p4gmy
story was invented by a Hindu
who held the current supersti
tion among his people that one
can avert bajl 'luck bj starting a
rumor that everybody will be
lieve, and that the same story a-
bout the African, sextuplets was
printed In 1903 and disproved
soon thereafter.
There is no end. however, to
popular credulity. Looking over
some of the early newspapers
published in the 1600’s I found
their “news” consisted largely of
similar sensational and incredi
ble rumors. I am rather sur
prised. however, at the ne'wspap-
ers of today which printed these
latest fakes.

PLOW UNDER LEGUMES
TO IMPROVE SOIL
When legumes are grown for
soil-building, the entire plant
should be plowed under at ma
turity, says C. B. Williams, head
of the agronomy department at
State college.
The nitrogen ggathered by le
gumes is stored in that part of
the plant which is above ground,
he points out, and when this is
cut for hay. all the nitrogen is
removed.
The nodules on the roots of
the plant do gather the nitro
gen, he observes, but this does
not mean that the nitrogen is
stored in the roots.
A good growth of legumes
will supply about 80 pounds of
nitrogen to the acre, h© says, or
the equivalent of 500 pounds of
nitrate of soda, 400 pounds of
sulphate.of ammonia, or 1,380
pounds of good grade cottonseed
meal.
If the soil is not badly in
need of nitrogen, Williams says,
the leggumes may b© cut for hay
and part of the nitrogen return
ed to the soil later by saving the
manure and spreading it on the
fields. But there will be a loss
of phosphoric acid, potash, and
other plant foods.
When legumes are planted in
soil where nitrogen-producing le- i
games have been grown within |
the past three years, he states, j
the new crop will become inocu-i
lated from the soil. Otherwise, j
it is necessary to inoculate tbe i
seed, for the plants will not |
gather nltrogegn unless inocu- j
lated with the bacteria which |
causes the nodules to form on
the roots.
Williams suggests that 200'
pounds of inoculated soil be
mixed with the amount of seed
to be sown on one acre when a
new field is being planted in le
gumes for soif-building purposes.
