MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON TUESDAY. MAY IS. 1961 $5.87 Is Spent by County Residents For Food in Week New York - The individual Jackson county resident spent more money for food in the past fiscal year than did peo ple in most parts of the United States. On a weekly basis, food ex penditures in Jackson county were at the rate of $5.87 per person per week. This was solely for food purchased for home consump tion. It does not include the amount spent in restaurants. By way of comparison, the outlay in other parts of the United States was $5.52 per person weekly. , , Figures on food consump tion and on the amount of money that went for that pur pose during the year are con tained in data released by the department of commerce, the department of agriculture and ' other sources. They show that the average American has a sturdy appe tite. In the past year he con sumed 1,488 pounds of food, nearly 29 pounds a week. The principal items making up his weekly diet are meat, 2.8 pounds, milk products, 8.0 pounds, eggs, a half doz en .vegetables and fruits, ex cluding potatoes, 7.9 pounds, cereals and baked goods, 2.8 pounds, and fats and oils, in- eluding butter and margarine, nearly a pound. In Jackson county, the to tal amount of food consumed in 1960 is estimated at 109, 666,000 pounds. Among non-farm residents, the reports show, the use of meats and vegetables is some what higher than it is among farm dwellers. As to other kinds of food, however, farm residents consume more. It is pointed out that the differences that once existed between the eating habits of farm and non-farm people are fast disappearing. A large pro portion of the food consumed by farmers is now being pur chased by them. At one time, by contrast, they lived almost exclusively on home-grown products. A breakdown by the depart ment of agriculture shows how the typical non-farm fam ily of average income distrib utes its food dollar. In Jackson county, assum ing normal buying conditions, 26 per cent of the food dol lar goes for meat, poultry and fish, 23 per cent for fruits and vegetables, 19 per cent for dairy products and 16 per cent is divided among other food Items. , .

Dr. Bernard Teitel of Long Beach warned that even medi cally supervised hypnosis could bring on chronic mental illness in persons having with drawn schizoid, or split, per sonalities. It is my impression that the likelihood of post-hypnotic psychosis in persons with schizoid tendencies is above average and that such per sons should not be hypnotiz ed," he told- the American Psychiatric Association at the final session of its 117th an nual meeting. Teitel devoted most of his prepared paper to the case history of a 49-year-old wo man who developed a para noid psychosis after treatment by hypnosis for a back injury. Sets Off Aberration He said the hypnosis appar ently set off the woman's mental aberration by reliev ing her of the physical pain she was using as an ego de fense machanism. "This left her without any appreciable ego defenses and she had' to resort to delusional preoccu pation with one or several themes," Teitel said. The woman, a domestic ser vant, received s i x hypnosis treatments from a clinical psychologist, recommended by a neurologist. Eight monts later, a psychi atrist found her suffering from a paranoid psychosis, Teitel said. It took1 the form of a delusion that she was be ing hypnotized by people in the hotel where she was liv ing after fleeing from her for mer home. Remains "Markedly Paranoid" While the patient improved a great deal after a series of electro shock treatments, fol lowed by psychotherapy, she remained "markedly para noid," Teitel observed. He said she would require peri odic psychotherapy indefinite ly. Teitel said he learned the woman had always had a schizoid-type personality. H e deduced this from her lack of close friends and inability to show hostility or aggressive feelings. "But it was not until after her injury and specifically and particularly following hypnosis," he said, that she became psychotic enough to require hospitalization and electro-shock treatments. A court later ruled that hypnosis was "one of a ser ies of major contributing fac tors" leading to the woman's mental illness, Teitel said.

The first made-in-Oregon product, of course, was the Trail. It was promoted nationally with fine success and was followed (that's what you do with a trail) by increasing numbers of other Oregon items. But it was not until after the turn of the century which is where we came in, by the way that anyone thought to organize all this output into an official products promotion. We're glad they got around to it. Each year at this time, when we look about us, we're pleased to see what good company we're in. Pleased to see they still approve of us, too.
