Tapping On Wood Custom
Comes From Old Prayer

The custom of tapping or touching
wood is said to be either of German
origin, arising from an old prayer or
superstitution about calling on the
Trinity by tapping on wood three
times (the wood representing the
Cross or from some still older super
stitution of about 5000 years ago
when wood was supposed to be the
bane of evil spirits.
The custom is that when anybody
is speaking of some unusual good for
tune or happiness, he hastily adds,
Il had better touch wood" meaning
that evil spirits, jealous of good for
tune, were not desired to spoil the
luck. George Borrow (1803-188D, the
English traveller, author and linguist,
in one of his books makes mention
of a man who had perpetual desire
to touch" some substance and thus
avert evil.

TURKS DRINK "BOOzA";
DOES NOT |NT0XICATE

For centuries the Turks and other
Mohanmedans have made and drunk
liquor fermented from barley called
"booza" 1t has been especially con-
sumed by warriors, because while it
does not intoxicate like wine, lit gives
heat and strength to the body and does
away with hunger" Excess in drink
ing it often leads to govt and dropsy,
so that the habitual booZa drinker
generally carries a cane or staff. For
this reason there has long beer a
Turkish saying that ''the boozer is no
friend of dogs" the reference being
of course, to his readiness to strike
with his stick any dog that unlimited
fawned upon him.
For centuries booZa makers were
an essential addendum to every camp
of Mohammedan soldiers. They were
generally Tartar gypsies, who were
most skillful in the brewing of the
drink.
There was also sweet booza made
not from barley, but from the unripe
seeds of millet, which was more a

Especial to The Palladium


BOSTON, Ind, March 23.-The pos
sibility of doubling prices paid for
farm products, while lowering the
final price paid by the consumer, was
presented by one. of the speakers who
explained the farmers grain selling
plan at the Boston farmers association
meeting Wednesday night
Processing and distribution costs
are 20 per cent of final costs for grain,
under the present system said the
speaker "The farmer receives 80 per
cent of the consumers dollar. 1t should
be possible to deliver the raw material
from producer to consumer at a cost
of 100 or even of so per cent of the
raw material cost
1T is done with other commodities,
and If we can get our cost down to
so per cent of the raw material cost,
with twice what is paid now for grain,
we will still have 40 per cent of the
consumers dollar for processing and
distributing
I'VE believe that it will be possible
to do this work for less than this mar
gin. and the price will be cut to the
consumer accordingly, probably 10 per
cent lower than at present, for the
finished product
Theory Advanced.
Organization of farmers as produc-
ers, with costs figured and charges al
lowed for interest on inves tment, sal
airy for the manager, wages for labor
and fair charge for risk of insect
and weather damage, as is done in
figuring costs for other industries. was
the theory advanced by the speaker
as the final goal.
Warning against expecting or trying
to eXtort more than a fair profit was
voiced, however "Other citizens arc
willing to see us get a fair charge. -
said the speaker, but whenever we
get to holding our product off a hun
cry market or expect too high profit,
! if We should ever have such a plan,
the government will step in and pro-
| tect the rest of the people,
Emphasizing the benefits of organi-
cation, and damage caused By lack o.
| it, Mr.. Bailey cited prices of farm
machinery in comparison with farm
products.
Corn was two dollars some time
ago" he said, land a wagon cost SIZE
| then. A wagon could be bought with
100 bushels of corn and there would
be $25 left. When the deflation came,
manufacturers were organized and
kept their business from harm. Farm
ers were not organized. Consequently
when corn was first bought after last
| harvest, it was priced at 80 cents.
| Wagons, made by an industry which
was organized, had come down to $3.50
and it took 500 bushels of corn anG
$40 additional to buy one. 1t is proper
| for others to organize, and it is foolish
| for us not to do So"
The speakers explained the cheaper
| methods of sale and shipment, with
| elimination of waste motion, by which
| it is hoped savings both to the pro
| Queer and consumer can be made.
