But these tours do help in giv-| ing information to farmers on what they can gain by entering their exhibits in the show and by showing the value of diversified farming as| it applies to the growing of corn.

American Labor’s Policies (New York Times) A consistent body of principles would ap- pear to underlie the proceedings at the Los Angeles meeting of the American Federation of Labor. Last week it went strongly on rec- ord in favor of what might be described as in- dustrial democracy, if in a sense different from that attached to the phrase a few years ago when it was synonymous with workers’ con- Mr. William Green and his associates are not for “taking over” industry in the eas} vocabulary of post-war enthusiasm. They are for labor’s participation in the management of industry to the extent of being allowed a con- sulting voice. The federation stresses “ac- countancy” as one of the big new factors in in- dustrial relations. Thereby it means that in future wage negotiations the workers shall be giyen a chance to criticize the employer’s book- keeping in the light of labor’s own data. Em- phasis has been laid on labor bureaus of re- search as a substitute for the strike threat. _ In suggesting this approach to democracy in industry the federation has not turned its | back on the older democracy, the pélitical kind. Democratic institutions could not ask for a heartier endorsement than they have received in the outspoken Los Angeles resolutions di- rected against dictatorship from the left or from the right, against communist and fascist theory and practice. The fight:of the New York needleworkers’ unions against a commun- ist leadership which has wrought havoc in their qrganizations and their individual wel- fare is to go on. But Mr. Green puts Musso- lini in the same class with Lenin. Both have deprived the workers of their elementary liber- ties. It is heartening to have this affirma- tion of loyalty to democratic ideals. The fed- eration’s attitude might serve as an example to other Americans who have permitted them- selves to fall under the sway of the alleged or exaggerated achievements ef communist or fascist autocracy. Not a few American busi- ness men and many American intellectuals have rallied to the wonderful new dictator pat- ent medicine, with the red label or the white. It is not necessary to ascribe the federation of labor’s stand for democracy to a pure ideal- ism. As is stated in the resolutions and speeches at Los Angeles, it has been found -used what is this fen tt field e field of sci ? ’s just this.

E. Bruce took over the job in the face of the jealousy of goodness kno: iow many rivals for the hand of iss Mellon and now he encount the jealousy of his comrades in the cénsular branch To say how fully this present} jealou: s justified might be unfair | to Mr. Bruce. Somehow, everyone speaks well of Mr. Bruce and even the envious concede there is nothing wrong with him. But the consular boys are peeved because they be- lieve he is being favored by their superiors in the state department as matter of standing in with Secretary Mellon, who is the third richest man in the United States. Although Mr, Bruce’s ability does not seem to be questioned, they can- tend that he has not yet demonstra- ted it in the se e and that in spite of that fact he ing favored over ification, s * eo and had been married to Mi: Mellon with great pomp and with the entire Washington police force holding back the crowd, he was ap: pointed to a vice-consul’s post at Rome. That was in May, 1926, Since that time, according to other consular men, Mr. Bruce has been almost constantly “on leave” until his recent return to Washington. Mr. Bruce’s' friends explain that his long absences from duty were due solely to the poor health of Mrs, Bruce, which gave him and his multi- millionaire father-in-law consider- able worry. es LETTER j| Friends of Mrs. Bruce, however, re- his future with him when the assign- ment was over. The assignment happened to be a diplomatic job at the International Radio-Telegraph Conference now in . Mr, Bruce was made ant secretary of state who represents the department as a dele- gate at the performance. It is-a very nice temporary assignment. Now the other consuls here say that Mr. Bruce, who was selected in the first place from several who wanted the Rome berth, has been given a position here that might well have gone to any one of numerous other men who have been working hard and conscientiously the last few years. They complain that it is bad,| for the morale of such men to see this plum go to Mr. Bruce. They figure that almost anyone else who had resigned as Mr. Bruce did, after such protracted leaves of absence, would have had his r nation accepted forthwith, The consular men believe that after the radio conference is over, Mr. Bruce will be made a diplomatic secretary. There is much more so- cial prestige, but much less’ work to that job than to a_ consulship. ig- Port that she prefers to live in ‘ashigton near her father and that Mr. Bruce probably will be given a post in the state department itself under one of Mr. Mellon’s admirers. f A Thought 4 He that despiseth his neighbor sinneth.—Proverbs, xiy 221. Modérn society acknowledges no neighbors.—Beaconsfield, f But the rub came when Mr. Bruce resigned his job. The department, it appeared, didn’t want Mr. Bruce to go. Some of its higher officials felt that if there was any way to keep Mr. Mellon’s son-in-law, it ought to be done, So a telegram was sent to Mr. Bruce offering him another tempor- ary assignment and promising him that the department would discuss “<TH!

Elimination of toxins is re- tarded and the cure of all disease depends ' mainly .upon increased eliminationof poisons from the body. I have never found a method superior to the fasting regime to accomplish ‘this purpose, and the best results usually occur when fruit is used to the exclusion of all other foods. The best of all fruits for this purpose-are the citrus fruits, such as ,the orange, lemon and grapefruit. When no other food is used, the elimination of toxic ma- terial proceeds with the greatest rapidity and, in a short time, the blood has regained its normal bal- ance and is again alkaline in reac- tion. The peculiar odor to the breath of a diabetic patient is from the acetone thrown out through the lungs and, when a case is curable, this will disappear after a few days of the fruit regime, After enough elimination has tak- en place, the patient is placed on a diet consisting mostly of the vege- tables rich in alkaline salts, such as the so-called non-starchy vegetables, spinach, celery, lettuce, chard, sum- mer squash, etc, At the same time the patient is warned not to use the foods rich in starch and sugar as these foods easily ferment and pro- duce an acid stomach. To insure enough elimination of the ordi- nary bodily toxins, it is advisable to make at least one meal of the day of fruit, and the best fruit for this purpose is either orange, lemon or grapefruit. Other fruits are not as good for this purpose as they often create flatulence which does not take place when the citrus fruits are used. The tendency to the for- mation of uric acid erystals, as in rheumatism, is counteracted by those fruit juices and this disease rapidly disappears. If rashes ap- pear on the skin when using citrus fruit’, it is because of the poisons coming out through the skin in such large quantities that, temporarily, some pores are blocked and rashed, and irritation results. This will dis- appear in a short time, even in 5 skin diseases as Eczema and Psor- iasis, and nothing should be done to retard the skin elimination by oint- ments which repress the poisons in the body. I do not know of any food which has such a definitely beneficial ef- fect in the system as the citrus fruits, and in no case can it be said that they produce acidosis. Of course, it is not wise to mix differ- ent fruits together which are incom- patible any more than it is ‘to com- bine any other foods which are in- harmonious with each other. The safe rule is to always use the fruits by themselves, and ‘if. you do this, there is no disease where fruits are contra-indicated. Acidity of the body will always decrease, day b day, until the normal is reached. Thousands of laboratory tests have confirmed this opinion and there has not been a single exception to this rule. In these days, it is well to know what fruits contain a wealth of vi- tal elements in a readily assimilata- ble form and the intensive cultiva- tion a increased their beneficial) aualiti Remember! day chases Acidosis away. Hunger and Appetite One must learn to distinguish be- tween the desire for only tasty Orange juice - every dishes and real normal animal ¢eraving for food which comes only because of the body’s longing for material with which to repair and build tissue. The danger of condi- ments lies in the fact that they ex- cite the taste buds in the mouth to such an extent that more food is eaten than the body really needs for its nourishment.

If so, you are over-eating. Do you such| belch gas a short time after eat- ing? If so, you are eating too much! Do you wake up tired out and with a coated tongue? If so, you are eating more than the body requires. Do you get sleepy in the afternoon? Perhaps you had better omit the noon-day meal as you may not need it all and maybe you are only bur- dening _ yourself with materials which, if not needed by the body, only act as poisons. _In all my experience as a dieti- tian, I have never found it advisable to urge a patient to eat more food as long as it is of the right quality. if you are underweight, perhaps you are burdening yourself with so much food that you cannot digest and assimilate even the amount your body really requires and you may be suffering from real starvation be- cause of this. If your appetite is poor, it is a sure signal to quit eating entirely until normal hunger returns for sim- ple food. If you need the stimula- tion of condiments to create an ap- petite, you will eat more food than your body needs at that time. “Eat all you can” should be sup- planted by “eat as little as you can.” = SAINF = SINNER As the dinner progressed smooth- ly, urbanely, from one. delicious course to another, Faith’s heart lifted and lifted until she had a silly but almost irrestible impulse to burst into song.
