Coming on the job eight years ago— office records in this department were pretty much in a mess.

To most persons this proposal will probably seem immoral today, yet in the early years of our national existence pub- lic lotteries were very common. Prior to 1820 no less than 70 lotteries were au- thorized by Congress. The Continental Congress in 1776 con- ducted a lottery to raise money for the THE KEY WEST CITIZEN | Coming Clean ! <' 5). by Geer ! READ USE OF “SHIPSHAPE“AS A SYNONYM FOR CLEANLINESS...

Doctors small have prescribed a dose of “Florida” for their pa- tients for many - years. Chambers of Commerce have their bit to remind the that Florida with her almy climate, her clean fresh . health giving waters and abundant fruits and vegeta- bles, offered a haven for those in poor health and a land of bright promise for those who The advantages these long be great and in orld al |would stay in the prime of con- dition A few years ago a great inter- nationally known surgeon estab- lished the Florida Medical Center at Venice and since then thous- ands of patients from all over the world journeyed here to re- gain the most precious of all pos- +sessions—good health. Revolutionary Army; President Washing- | ton approved a lottery for building a part of the national capital; Harvard, Yale, Dartmouth, Williams and Columbia uni- s were supported in part by lotteries in early days and innumerable lotteries were openly and legally conducted for vari- ous other charitable and educational en- terprises. Most European governments have at time or another employed national lot- teries as a means of raising funds for their public treasuries. Cuba has conducted a national lottery since the foundation of the on republic. The foregoing facts are cited, not as an argument for a national lottery at the pres- ent time, but merely to show that what would now be considered an immoral pro- ceeding was in earlier times looked upon as an entirely legitimate means of raising pub- fur EXCESS OF MALES DECREASES Population figures reveal that the ex- cess of males cver females in this country is declining and ii about f've years we will have a female majority. In 1910, Census figures recorded an exces of 2,692,288 males. This went down 090,242 in 1920 and to 1.4¢2,114 in 1930. It is pointed out that male births aver- age about 105 to 100 female births and that the females have an advantage of about three years in averge length of life. The number of m les to die each year is about 787,881 or 1 9 more than female deaths. This lead is reduced by the excess of male births, about 56,770 per annum. We attempt no deductions fram the figures which carry certain implications in | themselves. | \ Not long ago, on my way to Mi- ami, I stopped for a visit with secretary Blalock of the Venice Chamber of Commerce and he ac- quainted me with some amazing facts concerning experiments in diet that have been conducted for several years which hold po- tentialities for further publiciz- ing of this state from a health standpoint. For a considerable time Dr. Fred H. Albee, head of the Flori- ja Medical Center, has been keenly interested in the subject of Mineralized Foods and their relation to health, the restoration of health, and the prevention and cure of disease. It was the Doctor's belief that through scientific _ fertilization minerals and vitamins could be inducted -into fruits and vegeta- bles in varying quantities and controlled so that fruits and ve- getables so grown and treated could be depended upon to pro- vide a patient with a given amount of such needed foods and chemicals. also believed that through cientific feeding, mineralized beef and mineralized milk and dairy products could be likewise produced. He set his chemists to work on the problem and for sev- eral years the fruits, vegetables. beef and dairy products produced cn the farms operated by the Flo- rida Medical Center have been given experimental feeding and fertilization. Patients, whether surgical or medicai'» cases, are carefully checked to determine their de- ficiencies in vitamins and miner- als and then a diet designed to provide the needed elements is worked out. diet prescribed may include a juicy steak of mineralized and a large glass of raw mineral- ized milk. Records kept by the institution show that remarkable results have been attained. These spe- cial diets have aided all types of patients, restoring them tg fect health and speéding their re- covery. During the past few years the suuject of “mineralized foods” has been given more and more uttention. Efforts have been made to provide fertilizers for citrus trees that contain minerals es- pecially needed by the tree and that would insure its growth and cause it to bear finer fruit. Results in this direction have been very effective. Now through the research of the Florida Medical Center our fruits, vegetables, beef, and dairy products are being mineralized so that an experienced dietician after knowing a patient’s require- ments can prescribe a diet that will giverthe body just the ele- ments it most needs to maintain regain a healthy condition. Perhaps the day will come when the bulk of Florida grown products will be mineralized and the health-seeker will turn from the druggist to the grocer or butcher for their medicines which can be labeled “Made by Mother Nature” to prescription and produced in her Florida lab- oratory in mineralized soils. beef per-, sturdy ! died fruits—in the corners.
