I visited ? locomotive factoiy n0:
long ago. It was . hot day, a?d Uk
swv?ty workers uu.|.S f?,lue?t tri ,
? "ftewoolers for a drink.
Bea.de each cooler was * bo, Jabelc j
' ?Jj'1 n#hecd moat of tba men
took a little tablet on, of the box a J
swallowjjd it with t'oeir enp of col j
water. I asked why. , *
"It staves OR fatigue aud her:
Sm ?n'" t'ie *orcmafl tolcf mc
When a man sweat* he loses salt u*
well as water. We thought it whs
silly when the company doctor first,
told us to take silt in hot weathe;,
but now w6 see he was right. Seems
>ou t be well it von lose too much
salt".
I cheeked up o:; tliat w^th icy own
doctor. "That's right," he told me .
"Human li% like all animal life, bo
?an in the sea, rnd we're still fis i
msido. We must have salt to ho heal
1 by, and wflien w*> lose salt too rap
3d!y, by perspiration, we n ust replace
it. Sea salt is t'm> best, because it
con tarns other miivia's, but it's h?ud
to get. That's wny sea bathing k>
'hett^t tihau tfreshwi rrr swimming.''
SALARY .... salt money
What the doctor sa id a bo-u salt s-t
me to thinking. 1 remembered from
my schoo'd days, thai. tife Latin for sa?-.
is "sol", 1 w\nt. (o my dictionrjry to
Me? how many common English words
nr,, derived from ''s-i!." and the fiivf
one I found was "salary." It iiucait,
originally, "salt money,'' for sail
was the most prec'oas commodity in
earty tim<n
Salt was universally nsad as money
by primitive peoples and still is in
sojntt parts of Afr ?\i an(d Asia. Tt-r
world's great trade ^kmtfts follow th^
trails of th., salt-canvatas over whici
tK!? prtciWB isiimnfiKniy tr^pmp
to the peopv of 11k* inland towns.
Today the traffic of the camel-^raifs
of the Sahara d-^ert is pnnripall .*
the trade in salt.
The word for "Letf\th" used by
the old Romans was "sains". Wh?n
we 'Va-jirte" anybody we are wishing
him or hi tr good he -Ith. We still ca'1
a licn'Jtthy climate ''saJubrions," a"d
keep a box of salt or a chunk of rock
salt in tli.. cattle shed for tihe eows,
who can't range nrounjrt and find
for themselves a sn!>y piece of groiuu.l
such as the "deer licks" to whicb
the wijfd creatures have access.
njo ca|\ a ""an "the salt of the
earth" is to pay h:|n a high cOmpP
ment.
SUGAR v . J . stimulant
When 1 was a boj welised to keep
our horses looking "slick" by feed
ijng them sugar. J suppose hors? fan.
ciers ^till use that method of giving
the horse's coat, a g'nssy appearance,
and putting "pep" into the ani^na'.
I often see mounted policemen in
New York and other cities wiving
lumps of sugar to {heir mounts*
Doctors have told roe, and I have
found ijt true from experience, that
the best quijek f<piek-up" when one
feels fatigued is a lump of pure cane
suear. It ifo the most efficient stimu
lant. Wo all have a sugar factory j
inside ourselves, in the liver, and
when the body is called on for sudden
scvero exertion the liver pours more
sugar into the blood to provide the
needed energy. When you drop in at
a soda fountain for a disih ot ice
cream or a sweet dvink you are rj
spending to Nature's demand for a
stimulant. It'a e??s/ to take in mo:?
sugai than is good for th? health
but it's the most convenient source
of extra energy.
SPINACH . . . growing deaanj
A couple of miles lrom my country

6,000 acreg^ 7>fi only half a dozen veg
etab'o crops, i This year they had
nearly a thousand.^res in spinacii
alone, and they plan to grow mo ye
noxt year, the spinach demand is
growing fP fast. The people of th.-t
United States a'e 116 000 tons o*
spinach la*t year, whether they liki
it or not. ; , .
t parent^ bagan feeding their child

and other minerals in easily ipsinm

of today were raised on spinach an<l
