 for Farmers Wheat

LOCKNEY, Tex. Nov. 2y-Here is one local farmers answer to the question, What are you going to use for money?"
 Guy Ramsay had an over-supply of wheat, but needed good many other things.
 First, he traded wheat for a calf to be fattened and butchered for home consumption, and on the way home exchanged some more wheat for barley, to fatten the calf. He later made a similar exchange for alfalfa.
 On the same day Ramsey traded wheat for coal on pound for pound basis, realizing B 1-3 cents bushel for wheat that was worth only 21 cents on the market. "A new hat rack extends upward from a closet shelf to which it is clamped by a coiled wire base.

Here's a Mean Type of Man
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
My pay envelope is terribly
needed at home and I have a
very good job as a stenog-
rapher. Every one in the office
is fine and I'd be only too
happy if it were not for the
boss brother-in-law, a married
man who forces his unwelcome
attentions on me till I'm almost
insane. I don't want to tell on
him, and fear to do so, as it
might be the means of losing
my job. The other day there
was some mix-up in the office
accounts, and I heard this
jackal of a man insinuate to
the boss that it was my fault.
If it weren't for my mother,
who isn't strong, and my two
little sisters, I'd leave the place,
but times are hard and it's so
difficult to get a job. Have
you any suggestions to offer?
DISCOURAGED.
I'd tell the man (whom you
very properly term a jackaD, &,
that if he didn't let you alone
you'd complain to the boss. And
that if you're obliged to leave
your position your reason for
doing so will be given to the en-
tire office as a protection to
other girls who may have to
put up with his brutishneSs. He
is a coward or he wouldn't take
advantage of his position to
annoy you. and towards never
enjoy fighting in the open.

DIET AND HEALTH
BY DR.. Logan Clendening.

One comment on this Is
necessary. In actual dietetic
work exact results need not be
demanded. Actual weighed
parts Of food do not come out
exactly according to calcula-
tions without great expense OF
time and effort. That way
madness lies. If you come with
in so or 100 calorieS one way
or the other you will do no
harm, at least in reducing treat
mentS, so long as you do not eat
fudge and raise the diet pro-
gressively 100 calories a day.
Food scales are a bugaboo,
but until you learn to know the
weight Of overage helpings you
will need them. AS I have
said before, there is no royal
road to leanness. Get-thin-
quick schemes are dangerous
as well as uncertain.

for his 'ThingS I Did Not

following:
That a species Of small in
testinal worms can now be
seen with the X-ray. CThe
trick of the technique is to
give the patient a thin oat-
meal feeding; the oatmeal has
barium mixed in it; barium
throws shadow on the X-ray
plate. The worms eat the oat-
meal and suddenly a String-lke
shadow appears on the X-ray;

he liked me a lot. He even

What do you think I should
do? Should I stop writing en-

Wearing a Wrist Watch
Appropriately
DEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:

DEAR MRS. BEEChMAN:
Recently I had a discussion
with a friend of mine over a
question of etiquette and we are
going to let you decide it. Is it
proper to wear a valuable dia-
mond wrist watch to a formal
wedding? READERS.
If the wedding is in the day
time, a guest would appropri-
ately wear such a watch. II
you mean should the bride
wear such a watch, I should
say no, since it would probably
be more in her way, the way
Of her gloves for instance,
than it would be a decoration.
