Horn in 1875. Senator Sheppard first entered the
House Of Representatives in 1902. the successor Of his
deceased father. He served In the house until 1918.
In January Of that year he was chosen to fill the
unHxpsred term Of Joseph Weldon Bailey, resigned,

EuIAUFn 1UUNuM1 UA u A@AA~ &~
and Of Hygeia. the Health Magazine
When your eyes are bigger than your stomach. and
your appetite runs ahead Of your better Judgment
YOU find yourself eating foods that may cause con-
siderable gastric distress and leave you uncomfortably
~reErettul OF what you did.
Rather than experience such discomfort. you
should know what foods cause havoc with your Stom-
ach and fight shy Of them at all times.
Some time ago I described results Of an ~investisa-
ton Of food substances which caused i~rritations In
the stomachs Of many people. Some objected mostly
to cabbage, others to onions. and In others chocolate
caused trouble.
These people, however. suffered regularly from va
rious types Of indigestion.
More recently the same Investigators who made
the other study decided to find out likes and dis
likes Of normal people. with a view to determining
how much food discomfort there may be among those
who otherwise are not Ill.
One hundred college girls we're asked about their
food averslons and It was discovered that "A had q
distaste for q good many common foods
Caulinower led the list with ~. onions followed
with Is. There was coffee with "a, cabbage TO- Gu
cumbers u, and sour foods in general 10. Nine girls
expressed a dislike to milk, and thereafter anywhere
from three to eight expressed dislike to tomatoes.
peppers, radishes. pork. salmon. and chocolate.
The investigators believe that We express dislike
for foods In many instances because we find later
that we are uncomfortable after eating them The
foods which most often excite dislike are those WITH
strong odors and tastes. Flour. rice. Irish potatoes,
and similar foods seem to be liked by everyone.
$50
When an investigation was made to find out what
foods were specifically avoided because they resulted
In distress, It was found that cabbage led all the rest
with is, tomatoes Is. peppers II. onions II, fats IL,
PEANUTS 9, strawberries Z. cucumbers 7, and chocolate
5. A good many different foods aroused distress In
but one or two people out Of the hundred.
OF the 100 girls. only nine would eat everything
hat was put before them, but there were 50 who did
not know Of any food that would cause distress when
they ate It. In scme cases the complaint simply was
that the food could be tasted long after It was eaten
snd occasionally that II was regurgitated.
In about one-third Of the cases. the girls said they
had heartburn. nausea. or abdominal discomfort after
eating the offending food. Another third OF the
girls said that they had e~ruptions after eating the
offending food substance.

Smart California

While the Texas citrus fruit industry founders
around and considers this. that and the other thing
and does nothing. and while Florida refuses TO pass
green fruit shipping regulations. the smart boys In
California move serenely on TO their goal Of control
Of the industry. a goal made easier Of achievement
BY the concentration Of the bulk Of the crop in the
hands Of the California Citrus Growers exchange.
The California industry win consider on the 9th
OF October q marketing agreement to be administer
Cd 81 conjunction and cooperation with state laws,
blythe u. s. Department Of Agriculture.
Under the agreement pro-ration Of fruit shipments
viii BE- ~practiced. each shipper being given q proper
tionate allotment at tire hevnninF Of the season. Al
lotments for the state are TO be fixed weekly by the
secretary Of agriculture. and each shipper would then
figure HIS indiv'1r~l aHov~n~e Of shinments on the
basis Of his proportionate allowance Of the total allot-
ment for the state.
California, In its wisdom Of experience, is seeking
the same sort OF q marketing agreement that tore the
valley citrus industry asunder last season. To be sure.
firms representing 80 per cent Of the fruit shipped
from the Valley last season attempted to abide BY
che terms OF the marketing agreement and BY the
orders OF the control board. but the non-acquiescence
Of the other 20 per cent certainly raised hob with the
industry.
California citrus shippers and growers are smart
