NO CURE-ALL
WE believe .Senator Bwo'kliurt wid otheffs disisiilisficd with
the fin-m-rclicf bill jircsciatetl to C'oiirfes, shoiiltl rc-rcad
the following paragraph from President .Ilooyc-V metwaKe:
- The difficulties of agriculture cannot be ourod. In a day. Thoy
tinunut all 'be cured by legislation. They cannoti be cured by the ,
Federal government alone. But farmers and tluiir organizations
van bo osslHted to overcome these Inequalities. Kvery effort of
this character Js an experimnt, and e shall tr,nd from our ex
' perlenee'the way to further advance. "We hiuirt rrwike a start with
the creation of a great Instrumentality .of this icharucter, of s
strength and Importance equal .to that of those rwhtch we have
created for transportation and banking, and Ve give assurance of
the determined purpose of the government to meet, the difficulties
of which we are now aware and to create an gency through
which constructive action for the future will be aiisured.
As the President, well says, there is uo patent eurc-all for
the economic ills of agriculture'!
panacea. Any program formulated now must by the nature of
things be merely a start, an experiment, to bie improved, and
modified as' tbe results of subsequent experience dictate.-
Instead of immediately criticising the letu3s of tbe present
plan, and until any plan is tried the desirability of certain de
tails must be subject to question, it would.' seem fur better
sense to give the new program a thorough trial, and see hoiy1
it works.
NATURE WORKING
IX emphasizing the critical condition of the American farmer
Senator Ilobinson declares that ,2,000,000 people bave left
their farms in the past four years. In 1926 there were jnorc
than 444 farm bankruptcies per day, Half a. million furmcrs
are expected to abandon their lioldings this year. '
That such a situation is critical and deplonible jio one will
deuy'. But Senator Robinson fails
above present a more hopeful skle of the picture.
For after all is said and done,
nomics is that of supply and
farms means a reduction of supply, with no' reduction of de
mand, and a consequent inevitable Increase in prices.
In other words,, while this is
who have lost their farms, it does
the farmers who have retained
American agriculture as a whole. ' ,
In short, the agricultural situation has within itself the
seeds of its own" regeneration..
and production declines, the 'prosjierity of the nynaining farms
inevitably increases.

In the field of nutrition and diet
it seems that, almost everybody .is !

Here is a bit of nutrition advice
I find In an article in. an edaca-
tfonal journal. 1 suppose the author
is a teacher. She writes:
"The important factor in at-
- talnlng the new feminine figure
is a well balanced diet. Now
that it is ,no longer fashion
able to be bony, we can eat the
good substantial starches, .such
as . potatoes, macaroni ' and
bread, though in limited por
tions; otherwise the danger of
overweight will confront us.";
So far It reminds me of the trick
advice the old time doctor handed
out. "Secure plenty of fresh air,"
he urged, "but beware of drafts."
Tho nutrition authority proceeds
with her advice:
"Starches must not be more
abundant in the diet than the
green vegetables, such as spin
ach, string beans, kale, cab
bage, and cauliflower. The lat
' tor contain the vitamins that
provide us with energy, growth
and nourishment for the nerve
. tissues." -
The young lady might have
added, with equal confidence, that
the vitamins provide 113 with liair
011 our chests.
"Cream sauces, cereals anJ
butter . are no longer taboo.
They nitty add a pound or two,
but milk is the most perfect
food . . ." "
There we might pntise to Inquire
what's tho mutter with bread? II'
1 were over com pellotl to subsist

milk. It this teacher and I, iwere
cast away together with ' an ample

might care for with my' bread. r. -.

fofct,' cereals are rich in that

Ah, but the heat producing car
bohydrates in cereals are mainly
starchos 'help yoursetT to the ce
real, but don't get your feet wet.
". . . fish is a very nourishing '.
food thnt most of ns neglect

Compared' with starches, bread,
cerealB, fish is not very nourishing.
Fish is rather poor In nutritive elo-.
ments. But fish and shellfish are
durned good eating and probably
most people miss a lot of satisfac
tion by doing without these viands.
"IVfcat once a day is stiff
clent except for people who do
heavy muscular work."
That is an old theory, hut no
body takes It very seriously now.
"Thosn who are fond or

Tl at fuol adds as much weight

follows: Induce an accommodating
