For this demonstration, bed of light
yellow roses was chosen. "We divided the
bed in half" reports Mr.. E. A. Mallette,
Sales Executive of Bobbink & Atkins, "and
then applied one tablespoonful of Iona to
each of the plants on one side. That's all
the feeding they had, and, after four weeks,
the Loma-fed flowers were double the size
of the unfed, the plants themselves were
much larger and had almost twice as many
buds"

Of course, you've asked yourself that
question many times-just as everyone has
who loves flowers. And if you will read on,
you will learn that one of their secrets for
success is really no secret at all.
First, these growers start with good
stock. Second, they make it practise to
feed plants regularly. The striking photo

THE blueberry or hUckleberry, a faVorite
among the berries for table consumption,
which usually finds its way to the markets only
from wild sources. can be grown in the home
garden successfully.
The berry. because it Softens rapidly, does
not hold the place commercially to which its

are dried or mushy, their very weight adding to
the dificulties of marketing them. These diff
fculties may be overcome where the bushes are
grown at home.
The berries-that is, the larger varieties
prefer a fairly shallow water table and an acid
soil Where the bushes are kept moist about
the roots, with the soil in an acid condition,
the berries can be produced nearly as large as
cherries and in great abundance.
The usual distinction between the buckle
berry and the blueberry is that the latter has
a small seed and the former a large seed, ir-
respective of the color of the skin

ing and exercise to be effective, they say, mu@t
be continued for long periods.
In many cases other physical conditions make
it unwise for fat people to try to reduce weight
rapidly. AS a general rule. fat people should
diet and exercise under the guidance of a
skillful physician. Loss of flesh is by no means
a blessing, DR.. Cullen warns, if accompanied by
loss of health, energy or strength
BY exercise of its powers over interstate and
import commerce, the Food Drug and Insecti-
eide Administration has removed from the mar
ket many preparations falsely labeled for cure
Of disease and reduction of fat Seizures and
court actions have resulted in destruction of the
goods, and in some cases fines for the manu-
facturers.
Most manufacturers have now revised their
labels to comply with the food and drug act.
Some less scrupulous manufacturers continue to
make false claims in advertisements circular
letters, pamphlets and the like, not accompany
ing the package, over which the administration
has no legal control
For their protection the Food, Drug and In
secticide Administration advises purchasers to
compare the printed claims on the labels of
such medicines with other claims made by the
manufacturers. II there is a discrepancy it
is wise to depend on the label rather than on
printed matter that does not accompany the
package.

MO straight and easy road to weight reduc-
ton has been found, according to Federal
authorities, and articles known as anti-fat
remedies cannot be used promiscuously without
the introduction of an element of danger to the
user No drug or mixture has been found so
far which can reduce fat through it's exclusive
use which does not at the same time endanger
the health, according to DR.. F. j. Cullen of the
Food Drug and Insecticide Administration
Promoters of so-called obesity remedies and
fat reducing cures" he says. "sre attempting to
influence fat people to spend money for worth
less or dangerous preparations. The advertise
ments appeal to the vanity of persons who wish
to regain slim, graceful figures and also to the
business necessities of those who become so fat
they they can no longer do their work efficiently.
The principal appeal of most of the promo
ton claims is that no dieting is necessary. The
medicine is to do it all, and the advertiser says
the patient can eat all he wants and as often as
he wishes which is a strong inducement to most
stout people.
These preparations frequently contain thy
roid and laxatives. The promiscuous use of
thyroid may prove very harmful unless given
under the advice of physician personally
familiar with the subjects physical condition.
The department has on record an instance
where death has followed an overdose of a
preparation containing thyroid Some prepara-
tions contain poke root (phytolacca), a poison
GUS drug; and others, analysis shows contain
effect in reducing flesh.
The promoters of one preparation assert that
1t secures most marvellous results by a process
Of elimination of foods without digestion. These
people guarantee the reduction of q pound a
day. preparation of this character, If it did
what its makers claim for it, would probably
eliminate any need of digestion in the future.
Another product, examination shows, con-
sists principally of ordinary soap The idea
is to apply this locally with friction, and thus
remove the fat wherever it may be in excess
A still more clever scheme provides chemicals to
be added to the water in which the patient is to
bathe. These chemicals are of such a nature
that they form q sort of curd in the water
after the patient has bathed. This curd the
advertisement states, is fat and surplus tissue
removed from the body. Other schemes offer
tablets at rs cents a dozen which are claimed
to reduce fat at the rate of pound day
mo other class of preparation exploited to
humbug the people has a wider sale than these
So-called fat reducers, and nearly all the prepa-
rations are absolutely worthless Often patients
seem to lose weight, but this is to be attributed
to the hot baths and the diet and exercises
recommended to accompany the medication"
