Help the Poor Farmer Along.

The Administration favors subsidies
for those engaged in sailing ships; the
ways and means committee favors sub
sides for those engaged in producing
sugar. Here are two interests that the
g. o. p. is committed to protect, and
the farmers are beginning to ask why
they should not have subsidies, too.
And why should not the farmer be sub
sidized? Wool was spun in Massa-
chusetts before wheat was grown in Illi-
nois. consequently wheat-growing in IL
linois is more of an infant industry
than wool-spinning in Massachusetts,;
cotton was spun in Rhode Island before
| it was grown in Arkansas, consequently
cotton growing in Arkansas Is more of
an infant industry than cotton spinning
in Rhode Island; pig iron was cast in
Pennsylvania before corn was grown in
Iowa, consequently corn growing in
Iowa is more of an infant industry than
| pig iron casting in Pennsylvania; steel
vas produced in Ohio before potatoes

Drinking with Meals,

The habit of many people of drinking
large quantities of water with their
meals is very injurious. 1t is often
taken to rinse down food before it has
become tho. oughly insalivated; it d.
lutes the gestive fluids, which neceS
sarily retalds digestion, besides over
loading the stomach. Digestion is de-
layed because the fluids must Do
absorbed before the process of digestion
can begin. When soups and moist toodS
are eaten it is usually best not to DRINK
during the meal; but If, however, meal
is made up of dry foods, crackers, dry
bread, zweiback, granola, etc, it Will
lie advantageous to drink small guam
tity of water during the progress OF the
meal. 1t is often beneficial to take
swallows of hot water at the close Of
meal, for heat stimulates digestion
People who are troubled with heaYines'
Of the stomach often find relief by taA'
ing about one-fourth of glass Of nO'
