. Why NotCkn! ' .
DOASTING ears ar so plentiful now, many are going to,
waste. There is an abundance of other vegetables, in local
gardens, which can find no market.
Next winter roasting ears and fresh vegetables will be at a
premium. There will be many mouths to feed, and vitamins
to supply. In many homes there will be little money to supply
them.
Why not put them in cans now, at a minimum expense, and
at a maximum benefit to the community t Those not needed
for home use could be donated to a central distributing agency,
and handed out to deserving families. - , '
According to our information roasting ears can be put up
with great success. . Thanks to modern science fresh vegetables
can be kept fresh in jars and cans almost indefinitely.
A well organized canning drive in southern Oregon strikes
us as excellent policy. Soon the pears will be ripe and hundreds
of bushels will go to waste unless there is some effort made to
utilize them. .
People can exist on bread and water, or on potatoes and
bears but there is no necessity for the most destitute, being
deprived of a well balanced diet in this valley of plenty and
vegetables and fruits are supremely important in such a diet.
We submit that old war-time slogan "Eat what you can, and
what ybu can't eat, CAN," should be revived at the-present
time. A month or two from now will be too late. The time to
start is NOW. . ,
Coolidge Sees Danger
PXCESSIVE taxation of a comparatively small number of
rich people is seen as a grave threat to the whole structure
of American democracy by Calvin Coolidge in an article which
Collier's Weekly published recently. He advocates a general
sales tax as a counteractive measure, whereby a large number
of people should pay a small but certain direct tax.
"If we delegate the paying of our taxes we shall find 'we
have delegated the control of our government," says Mr. Cool
idge. "Nothing seems clearer than that if the people are to
control the government they must pay the taxes to support it.
These two go together... And secondly, if the people are to have
an opportunity to own the property of the nation they must
pay the taxes on it. , These two go together. Power and re
sponsibility cannot be separated, politically or economically." '
"Our system of property rights has been devised out of much
hard experience for the purpose of confirming the liberty and
independence of the people. It cannot be limited or destroyed
without limiting or destroying tho opportunity of the people.-'
"If .it ia necessary to meet an emergency excessively high
taxes on a few large incomes
temporarily without great injury.- But to"a'dopt such a system
permanently and, under the pretense 6f raising revenuo, pursue
a policy of expropriation and attempted redistribution of wealth
would have the gravest consequences. One of two things would
lie likely to result; Enterprise
of property would be dissipated, and,, a condition of dopi-ession
would becomo chronioully progressive, with a falling standard
of living, oconomio suffering and, great poverty on the part of
the people. The other alternative would be tha creation of a
olass of great wealth whrj. would have a large control of the
government because it would be dependent on their money for
its support. . ' t .
"Only under some system
the people could suoh'a class
required. That would be the
The rest of us would be reduced
the people lose.-
f'T'HERE is always a temptation in time of adversity to
think anything would
have. Naturally we ask ourselves why, if our system is sound,
it docs not work bettcrv The answer is that our system has
worked better and is now working better than any other that
was ever devised.' Under it we

under any other system.
"We are wise enough to know that there is no system of

We cannot ' expect perfection.
But that is no reason why we should agree with those, who
would persuade us that all our hard-won victories were mistakes
which we (night bow to abandon.

undertakes to protect property as' such. Property has no rijrhts,
only the poople have rights. The Constitution protects the
rights of the people in their property. ' There is no purpose to
protect a person because he it
idea is to protect the poor and weak. 'We want to make their
riglits just as sacred as the rights of those more favorably situ
ated. Equality of riglits is the aim. When property rights are
in jeopardy the first to suffer are the wage-earners. The pro
tection of property rights is the only way to insure any oppor
tunity for employment and progress." ' .

One of the most distressing and
intractable facia! neuralgias is the
type which follows one or more out
breaks of herpes ("cold" sores) on'the
face and over the orbit. No treat
ment as yet developed has given any
marked relief In these cases. The
neuralgia has to run Its course r.i
many weeks or months, then gradu
ally suslde. Nolthor alcohol Injections
in the nerve, nor dividing the nerve
brings relief In these cases. We can
only endeavor to relieve or mitigate
the pain for the sufferer.
Tic douloureaux (pain' spasm)' is
the most atrocious of all neuralgias.
but fortunately It Is rare. The spasms
of pain occur only in the daytime,
rure, and the patient manages
to get fair rest nights. In ordinary
trifacial neuralgia the pain ia usual
ly worse at night.
While persona who have or say they
have other forms of - neuralgic pain
not Infrequently crave sedative drugs
and sometimes become drug addicts.
It Is a peculiar characteristic of gen
uine trifacial neuralgia that the - vic
tim rarely or never becomes an ad
dict, even if drugs are given for the
relief of the suffering. Another not
able characteristic of true trigeminal
'neuralgia Is that although the suf
fering In some cases quite wrecks the
victim's health and makes life mis
erable, threats or attempts at suicide
are unknown.
Authorities admit they do not know
the cause of trifacial neuralgia. There
Is some support for th theory that
the pain may be produced by vaso
motor spasm In the vessels supplying
the rrve, which Is a manifestation
of some disturbance In the sympa
thetic nerve connections.
Some victims have noticed that
they are free from pain when they
have fever. With this as a hint some
physicians have been able to give
much relief with diathermy treatment

the tissues through Which the current

your corn cure, which our family uses
with unfailing satisfaction, and sec
ond for your advice for gaining
weight. I have -put on several pounds
Just by taking the : bedtime unack
you recommend - . :. L. B. -''
Answer. The corn cure Is as old
as the hills 30 grains salicylic acid
dissolved In half an ounce of flexible
collodion.' Paint corns, callus or wart
with it once dally for a week or two.
Keep it off from normal skin, and
from neck of vial, and keep It tightly

Is smoking Injurious to an expect
ant mother. If she has had the habit
for six years and finds It hard to
atop? Mra. G..W. T.

old-fashioned adhesive plaster stick
ing piaster Everything nowadays has
a rubber ba, and as I use it on my
feet it makes them very sore. The
old -fashioned kind was made with
muslin and had to be heated before
applying. J. t.
Answer. It is very difficult to
make. Btter leave the preparation
of the Gld-fashloned adhesive plaster
(sticking plaster, resin plaster) to the
skilled pharmacist, who has complete
instructions in his Pharmacopoeia or
Dispensatory.

ularly with the Community Chest,
calls to our minds the desperate situ
ation which confronts our commu
nity. When viewed from the stand
point of the season of the year which
we are now In It should strike every
citizen with grave concern. Here we
are in the very midst of the crop
season.
One of the largest crops in our
history of the orchard and farm Is In
the process of production, which un
der normal conditions would give full
time employment to all laborers.
Notwithstanding this fact our un
employment problem continues to
grow. Harvest time for our fruit
will soon be here and this will bring
some relief, but the significant fact
remains that winter follows harvest,
and If our Red Cross and Community
Chest treasuries are now depleted and
unable to cope with the present situ
ation, what shall we expect for the
winter months?
Even though the backbone of the
depression may be cracked or even
broken. It will require months for the
convalescing period months which
will carry us beyond next winter,
before we can possibly feel the re
juvenating effects and warming In
fluence of a returning prosperity.
The Red Cross needs and must re
ceive the" support -of our people who
can contribute and who have made
pledges to the Community Chest
which acts as a disbursing agency to
the several social and welfare Insti
tutions. , There Is another organization
which has recently come into, being
In Medford, whlph I believe is timely
and appropriate. It Is the organiza
tion of the unemployed to help them
selves, and Is being undertaken by
the men who have never received aid
from the Red Cross or other charit
able institutions.
They are men who have lived in
Medford and vicinity for two or three
to fifteen or twenty years; men who
have helped to build Medford and
whose ons and daughters are now
the student of our public schools
and members of the graduating
classes which are being turned out
from year to year. They are men
who many months ago found them
selves out of employment and have
exhausted their savings in trying to
stem the tide of depression and are
now facing the loss of iheir homes.
They are men who are worthy,
courageous, patriotic. They are good
citizens. They are not seeking char
ity they want to help themselves. In
a registration of over 300 families less
than twenty have ever received Red

Cross lid. They have only their toll
and their skill to offer at a medium
of exchange. They hava worked out
a plan which I believe It practical
and workable, and In my opinion It
should commend Itself to our evory
consideration. . "r
Space will not .permit me to give
it In detail, but It has required a lot
of work and Intelligent thought to
evolve the plan. They have met
some discouragements with their plan
which I believe Is due to a lack of
understanding of It.
May I make an appeal to the busi
ness men end club groups of our city
to csll at their headquarters In Union
hall at the corner of Main and Cen
tral and learn In a first hand way
wha they are trying to do. If we
as a community will support their
plan and lend proper encouragement
to It we will relieve the Red Cross of
certain Increased froolems of future
months when It Is already burdened
far beyond the generous capacity of
Its treasury and Its kindly helping
hands. A, W. PIPES.'
