The method Of mixing the in

the beginners worst fault. A

Answer-That is correct. Taken
internally castor seeds or DEANS
are powerfully cathartic and often
emetic. Two will purge with great
violence, and three have produced
fatal gastro-en teritis in man. SO
don't scatter these seeds about the
premises to eradicate rats or gop-
hers If you have dog or other
pet or any animal that may eat
the seeds.

DO HAVE A LITTLE MORE
IODIN.

Some years ago I received SER
les Of reports from readers who
declared they had been cured OF
chronic varicose ulcer by taking
the iodin ration I recommend for
everybody. couldn't see the rat
ionaie of 1t and SO alluded to 1t
skeptica1ly. Then medical coll
league informed me that there was
merit in the idea and that indeed
his father, physician, had treated
many cases of chronic varicose ul-
Ger by giving the patients minimal
doses of iodin over a prolonged pc
Rod. He suggested that this tend
ed to restore normal thyroid func-
ton, and that stimulated the ma
turai healing process. Still don't
know. But suppose we test 1t out
on a hundred guinea pigs. Human
guinea pigs who have chronic, that
is, long standing varicose ulcer.
Especially those who have tried
this and that remedy, maybe even
medical treatment, and when the
ulcer failed to heal, conclude 1t is
incurable. II hundred or more
readers who qualify will send
stamped addressed envelope "a
three cent stamp, the compete ad-
dress (not "City' or Locally and
an envelope with stickum on the
fiap-Ill give them full particulars
Of the iodin ration, and also gem
eral instructions on the care and
dressing of the ulcer. In return
these human guinea pigs must
promise to write me again after
three months trial of the treatment,
brief report of the result. A pos
tai will do. The report must mem
ton the condition - chronic vari-
cose ulcer-give the duration of
the trouble up to the time the
iodin ration is begun, and state
whether healing has been obtained.
otherwise 1t is just fuel for the
automatic chucker.
A lady writes that she has found
a cure for pyorrhea, and she mas
been trying to induce various COM
panies to market her cure. She de-
clares that the iodin ration has
cured her of pyorrhea from which
she had suffered for many years.
oh, well, l am confident the
iodin ration will do no harm In
such cases. II we can line up an
other hundred or more guinea pigs
who have pyorrhea and start 'em
all off on the iodin ration, together
with some general hygienic advice
about the teeth which I'll send
them, we ought to be able to find
out whether the iodin ration Is
particularly helpful for this COM
mon and obstinate condition. ! am
just as skeptical of this as was
Of the cure Of varicose ulcer. But
what don't know about these
things will fill some large books In
a few more years. incidentally, ]
hope no dentor will scold me for
using the term "pyorrhea." II ]
were to use a more scientific and
! perhaps more specific term for 1t,
these guinea pigs would not know
what mean.
Warning to all guinea pigs who
contemplate volunteering for the
test: II you try to bootleg any
symptoms or IL you ask for dag
nosis Of your trouble you can't join

VITAL TO PUBLIC WELFARE

The cost of food is the largest
single item in the average family
budget. And the lower the total
family income, the higher becomes
the proportion needed 70 food.
Any sound needs of reducing re-
tail food prices, thus liberating
money for other purposes, is OBJ
viously in the interests of the en-
tire country.
1t is in the interest of the con-
sumer who, if his food costs him
less, will have more to spend for
clothes, amusements, a trousand
luxuries and necessities.
1t is in the interest of the pro-
Queer, Who has a great deal ito gal
from cutting the spread between
the wholesale and retail price of
farm products. If foods are cheap
er, the Consuming market is auto
matically increased. More quality
foods are bought. Home truck gar
deners produce less. and turn to
commercial sources Of supply.
1t is in the interest of every in
dustry, which will receive its sharN
of the money liberated. The man
who cuts his food budget, for ex-
ample, may use a months SAVINGS
to purchase pair of shoes.
Workers are employed - trans-
Port systems receive more busi-
ness-tax Payments rise divi-
dends are earned by stockholder.
advertising budgets are incre9s-
ed. And SO it goes, all along the
indu strial line.
Much progress has already been
made in reducing the spread be-
tween Wholesale and retail food
prises by doing away with need
