The solutions suggested as a wise Not Just Like 1920-21 One of the questions that is fre quently discussed, by those who would . like to know what lies ahead jof the people of the ' United States relates to the possibility of another 1920-21. While the prices of commodities fcave soared rather bjgh, as they did in 1920,'there are some phases Of the present situation that are much dif ferent.' la the period between No vember, 1919, and February, 1920, the stock market went, on bull ramp age, with stocks scoring advances of twenty-five or more. At the present time' there is little evidence of a bull market and. in fact, the" prices of stocks are considerably lower than one would-expect in view of the pro fits being made. , : j . In 'addition, the money market in 1948 does not resemble' that of 1920. The discount rate of the Federal Re serve Bank oi Mew York is one per cent but on January 22, 1920, it was, raised to six per cent and in May of the same year advanced to seven per cent. Tne market rate on .Treasury one-yea loans is one and one-eighth per cent, but in Hay, 1920, the gov ernment was paying five and one-half per cent to borrow for six months at a time, j i.:, It should likewise be noted that at the endl of the war,; liberty Bonds were quoted close to par. In May, 1920, ; however, they dropped to eighty-two, revealing that the rating of government, credit was at a level equal to that which occurred during the panic of 1873. We think attention should be di rected to another, difference. There is a greater reserve in the possession of "ui rtuuuiG ...mi .udu .U JLtf.v. The fact that the government's "Baby Bonds" sold during 1947 at a rate faster than the amount cashed in, in dicates not only- confidence in the government, but that the public has some money to add' to its stock of savings. Of course, there is no way of tell ing what the future holds in CAybpan Spud SllTinlv The cvcle of business oresents many 3Joen eeu Olippiy aspects and just what is underway IS Short ThlS Year planting this spring will be small, says Dr. R.

'Y Now I am going to tell you. some thing that may cause some of you surprise. ; During World War I the Deutcbland, famous German sub marine, obtained the food from cap tuerd American ships. This food con sisted largely of white flour, polished rice, salted meats, cheese, coffee, tea, dried beans, some dried fruits and vegetables. They thought that they were supplied with food for some time to come, and remained out from base for several months. " ; 1 After the Armistice they round themselves near .Baltimore with a very sick crew. They put in to Bal timore and were taken ashore. They were all suffering from scurvy. The officers were not so badly off as the crew, for what fruits and vegetables were on board had been reserved for their table. . v.. '"'' All the sufferers were cautiously fed upon rice polishings, fruit juices, fresh vegetables, and other vitamin rich foods as soon as they, were able to take them. Several died for dis ease had made such inroads upon their systems that the treatment was too late to save them. Most of them re covered. '.. ,J Now what was the cause of the plight of the . Deutchland's crew 7 Simply this the refined, denatured diet upon which they had so long subsisted was so low in vitamins and minerals that they all became ill. Pellaera. as vou know, is due to a deficient diet I have stated many times that pellagra, among Southern farmers is caused indirectly by ig norance and laziness. Several yean ago while engaged in general prac tice, I saw a great deal of it, espec ially among Negroes in one of our splendid agricultural counties. They were too shiftless to plant gardens although they had land in abundance. They had no cows to furnish milk for that too, would require work. The greatest sufferers lived principally upon grits," fat back and molasses, which they got from a store. During he Mississippi flood when the tenant farmers were driven out of their shacks by the water, thous ands of them were found to be suffer ing from pellagra. The government sent health workers among them'. Brewers' Red Cross .yeast was fur nished them In carloads. On a fairly good diet and Brewers' yeast supplied by the Red Cross, the 'majority of them recovered. mals should be trimmed at least once a month. Any irregularity or trouble with the feet should be examined By a veterinarian. . As for the animal's teeth, - the horse's mouth is so constructed that its teeth wear off unevenly. If this irregularity is -. not corrected, the animal cannot -chew properly. Diges tive upsets may follow, and the horse's cheeks may be painfully in' jured. C!2SSifi3icnJLc-:!s speak for themselves.
