Jump From Piedmont

For Youngsters
By BURTON HAWKINS.

The somewhat unscientific farm
ing methods employed by the
Nationals today were inviting targets
for abuse. for. it appears, Washing
tons Piedmont League products are
requested to take a running broad
jump into major league baseball
when they actually are ready only
for short skip. Washington's farm
system, to be blunt, is inadequate.
BY no stretch of the imagination
can the Mats crop of rockies be
tagged as failures, for many men
whose business is baseball feel
Washington is blessed with some
promising material. 1t seems, SIM
ply, the youngsters aren't receiving
fair tests because they're being
pushed too rapidly.
Comparatively speaking, it's SINH
lar to promoting a corporal to a
captains command and expecting
him to fill the niche acceptably. The
percentage would be against him
just as it is operating against WASH
ington's rockies.

and Charlotte, N. c., of the Pied

therefore, are being jumped entirely
over one or two baseball classical
tions and the arrangement hash t

The really big flaw in the Mats
organization-to at least one of
basebal's bigwigs who prefers to
remain anonymous-is the missing

Salt May Poison Hogs,
Veterinarians Reveal

After investigating several cases
of salt poisoning, veterinarians have
found that most farmers are I'M
aware that salt is poisonous to hogs
if given in too large quantities.
A good example of such a case
was a farmer who had 222 head of
pigs which had been vaccinated
with both virus and serum; seven
of the group had died seven days
after the vaccination and four more
were sick. The farmer blamed the
treatment. The sick pigs wandered
about the pen in a daze, gradually
weakening until completely para
lyzed. Death soon followed. The
owner said the pigs seemed to crave
something, so he set out several
blocks of medicated salt. A num-
Der of the pigs ate considerable
amounts from the block; he contin.
ued. The salt was removed from
the pens and no further losses oc-
Cured.

Causes of
Chronic Arthritis

Despite our knowledge of prevent
ing Observation-Disclosures re-
moving infection from teeth, tonsils,
sinuses, gall bladder, together with
proper rest, diet and exercise,
there are many cases which become
chronic before infection has been
removed. The infection in joints
has caused changes that often can
not be repaired or corrected and the
patient is afflicted with stiffness,
pain, and some degree of deformity.
In speaking Of these cases of
chronic arthritis, DR.. Robert T.
Phillips, Boston, in the New Eng
land Journal of Medicine, tells of the
help that can be given by physical"
medicine or treatment-rest, exer-
else, massage, and electricity.
DR.. Phillips points out that rest is
needed by chronic arthritis because
of the long drain on their nervous
and physical energy caused by the
infection. The suggestion is an
hours rest after meals. Two posi-
tons are taken. For the first 30
minutes the patient lies on his back,
stretched well out, pillow under
lower back and the knees but not
under the head. For the second 30
minutes he turns face down, sup
ported by "a pillow placed crosswise
under his abdomen.
Joints Should Be Straight.
In regard to exercise, arthritis
must not allow joints to remain in
a bent position. No matter what the
degree of arthritis, the patient can
carry out some exercise-lying,
standing, sitting, walking-to move
his joints and strengthen his
muscles.
In regard to heat DR.. Phillips sug-
gests the use of hot water applica-
tons by means of some wooden
material covered with a towel or
blanket to hold in the heat.
The massage is done by the use
of long, smooth strokes in a direc-
ton toward the heart as it is the
return circulation of the blood that
needs help. If pain is present, mas
sage should be gentle. Heat should
be applied before or during the mas
sage.
In regard to electricity, it is I'M
fortunate that physicians do not
give more attention to acquiring the
knowledge of the proper methods of
using electricity in the treatment of
chronic arthritis as it gives excel,
lent results in skillful hands. When
proper treatment by electricity is
not available, the use of the other
physical forms Of treatment
rest, heat, exercise, and massage
faithfully carried out will give sat
isfactory results.

have quoted before, in the British
Medical Journal, tells us that mid
die ear and catarrhal conditions are
found very often with detection of
the septum. When severe, it may
cause pain by pressing against the
side wall of the nose. However,
the blockage of the little opening
from sinus into the nose prevents
mucous or pus from draining out
into nose and throat, causing Sc

cases the bend or DETECTION is high
up in the nose due to injury-foot-

The point about this is that while
most of us have bent septum and
no treatment is required, in cases
of sinus trouble, catarrh or middle
ear conditions where good ventila-
ton and drainage is necessary, one
with bent septurn is more likely
to have severe pain and require OPP

FARMERS LOSE CASH
GRAZING WOODLANDS
Forestry Specialist Points
Out Common Fallacy.
BY R. W. GRAEBER


Farmers who Craze cattle In
woodlands lose money both in milk
or beef and in timber and erosion
control.
Experiments have shown that
managed woodlands yield an annu-
al return of about 81 per acre, and
that the best open pastures yield
about the same amount. However,
when grazing and forestry are COM
bined on the same area, the yields
are much less, the total annual re-
turn for typical woodland pasture
being only 81 per acre.
Why do farmers run their cattle
in the woods? There is only one
logical reason: They think they can
pick up an extra dollar or two by
letting the cattle pick few buds and
twigs in early spring, along with
the low-growing plants and a few
sprigs of grass or briars which
may grow where a few rays of
sunlight reach the ground.
This is a fallacy. A farmer
doesn't pick up an extra dollar or
two; the cows do not produce as
much milk or as much beef as
when they Craze in open pasture;
the timber supply is reduced; graz
ing woodlands induces erosion and
loss of leaf litter; the fencing bill
is higher.

Farming Not Easy

Successful farming is not easy. It
requires much experience in doing
the various kinds of farm work and
the ability to show others how to do
this work. It requires training in
business management and knowl-
edge of the principles of plant
growth, the feeding and care of ami
mails, and the maintenance Of soil
fertility. Few industries require
such wide range of training and
experience. Farming is not simply
growing a particular crop or feed

IT'S no secret as to who has been
l chosen to play the part of lead
ing lady on the stage of fashion
during the early fall days College
Girl is her name. To this impor-

paying homage at the present mo-

The style program arranged for
Miss College Girl and her younger
schoolgirl sister fairly teens with
excitement. For instance, there is
the new hustle dress. The idea has
taken the collegiate set by storm.
The quaint hustle dresses that
grandmothers galavanted in as girls
in the '80s are actually proving
inspiration for frocks that the mod
ern girl will wear this fall.
The highpoints Of these oldtime
silhouettes are being revived such
as waistlines of vanishing inches,
slim corseted midriffs and wide
back-swirling skirts interpreted in
novel hustle treatments but modi-
fed so cleverly they are made thor
oughly practical and wearable for
this day and age. Then there is the
new vogue that calls for velvet or
velveteen jacket worn with a gay
plaided wool skirt or a contrasting or
matched solid color as fancy die
tates. The decided military air that
the new fashions take on is also
big factor in the new mode and
most outstanding of all is the i'm

Offers Solution
For One Problem

For many women, the most try
ing coat length of recent inspira-
ton is the rather popular justice
low-the-waist length that nips in at
the midriff and hugs the hips.
It is a good style for slender
woman with a streamlined figure
and is being shown in any number
OF varieties, of which one of the
most popular is a monotone wool
jacket worn over a gay print dress.
But the problem is not so simple
for those who border on plumpness.
One suggestion is that the slightly
swallow-tail version deals more
kindly with the heavy woman.
