MOTHS Pre-School SWIM Instructions U IV II w m u Further Information at SP 2-6295 Program Given 1 For Foods Group Mr. and Mrs. Earle Rogers provided the program for the last meeting of the Natural Foods associates, held at Med ford High school. Mrs. Rogers led a discussion on soils based on articles writ ten by Dr. J. Coda Martin and Leonard Wickenden. It was said that in the nation's food markets today it is practically impossible to buy any food not contaminated by DDT and other spray poisons. In the body, these accumulate where they have an inhibitory effect on the use of oxygen by the body cells, the speaker said. When this con tinues from childhood on, the cells deteriorate and eventually became cancerous, according to the articles presented at the meeting. Many of these poisons are fun gicides, developed to kill fungus diseases in plants, according to the information presented at the meeting. When plants are sprayed with these materials, it is inevitable that some of the materials enters the soil where it -will also destroy soil fungi, according to the speaker. When this goes on year after year, the soil will deteriorate, it was said. Soil fungi are an aid to plant growth and every effort should be made to increase their num ber, the speaker declared. There was also a discussion and demonstration by Mr. Rog ers on how to grow watercress in a glass jar at home, and on other plans for growing food. The next meeting of the group will be held Monday, October 21 at Medford High school. How to have a producing winter garden will be discussed. Any one interested is invited to at tend.
