PREVENTION

President Roosevelt seems TO be
turning to the old adage, AN ounce

initiation.

OF course there are still points OF

is whether the proposed new taxes
should apply 10 all corporations
and individuals or only TO those en-
gagged in war production. 1t has
been urged that, applying to all,
the plan would force hardship on
those having no part in war spend

apply TO all alike.

Whether or not the plan Is too

general feeling Of abdominal dis
comfort with localized symptoms
in the large intestine.
At least 80 per cent Of the pa
tients who come TO a large clinic
for digestive diseases, it has been
reported by DR.. Sara Jordan,
have nervous disturbances for
which treatment Of the colon is
the outstanding requirement.
Everybody. including the pa
tient. realizes that a great deal
Of the trouble caused by this con-
dltion is due TO a nervous make
up, but il is also true that in most
cases there is some localized spot
or physical condition which Is in
the digestive tract, and unless this
is corrected all the psychology in
the world is wasted and inef-
fective.
The patient with an unstable
colon has usually abused himself
with the habitual use of drugs,
particularly cathartics, faddy
diets. overwork. lack of recogni-
.tion Of the necessity for a period
Of rest and a continual jumping
from one form of treatment TO

who died in Yarmouth. Massachu-
sets, in 1870 is not necessarily

Symptoms
The symptoms of this form Of
digestive disorder are predomi-
nantly abdominal distress and dis
tension. This makes everybody
feel at some time or another that
they should have a cathartic and
most of them are habitual cathar.
tic users. The fact that this makes
he colon more unstable and more
irritable is something that they
do not take the trouble to analyze.
Distension is associated with
gas distress and usually occurs
regularly after meals. Almost al
ways this is due to some localized
form of irritation. Nausea and
vomiting occur in a very small
percentage of cases; few have
diarrhoea. The constipation com
planned of by these patients. when
analysed, usually means that they
have been taking laxatives over
a period Of years until they are
dependent on them.
The puzzling thing to the ply
stefan about these patients is that
he can usually find nothing to ac-
count for their symptoms. They
are seldom underweight, their
blood is unchanged. they have no
recognized or standard disease,
the X-ray shows no change in the
rate of stomach or intestinal
movement. except occasionally
when they are in acute distress.
The treatment is principally
directed toward relieving tension,
getting them out of the cathartic
habit and putting them on a diet
which suits their particular and
individual colon.
People write and ask me for a
diet for colitis. There is no diet
for colitis that suits everybody
and the proper diet has to be found
by a patient and his physician. OF
course, the diet should be easily

CONSERVATION
POLICY ALTERED
SERVICE CHANGED TO PROVIDE
FARMERS MORE HELP IN
PRODUCTION

Reorganization OF the soil conserva-
ton service to give farmers and ranch
ers more help with wartime production
and conservation problems has been
announced by the agriculture depart
ment
The realignment involves the closing
of four major regional headquarters.
establishment of one new regional Of
flee discontinuance of 70 field offices
and reduction in personnel at the re-
naming offices, including Washington.
Officials said this would permit the
release of skilled technical employees
from those offices to work directly with
farmers and farm groups in the field.
The net result, the department said.
would be to promote more efficient use
of land resources in the food for free
dom program.
Commenting on the need for provid-
ing greater technical help with land
use problems, DR.. H. H. Bennett, chief
of the soil conservation service, said:
During the last World war the pro-
ductive capacity of millions of acres
was unnecessarily reduced or lost out
right through unwise cultivation.
fortunately, practical soil conserva-
tion measures have been developed
which will not only help prevent rep
etition of such damage, but almost in
variably lead to increased yields per
acre-and now is the time to put this
knowledge to work"
Regional offices to be closed are at
Dayton, O.; Amarillo, Tex; Spokane,
Wash, and Berkeley, Calf New head
quarters will be opened at Portland,
Ore, following consolidation of the Pa
cific southwest region, including Call
fornia and Nevada, with the Pacific
northwest region at Washington, Ore
gon and Idaho.
Kansas will be shifted from the
southern plains region to the northern
plains region, with headquarters re-
naming at Lincoln, Neb.; the eastern
portions of Colorado and New Mexico
will be added to the southwest re-
gion, with headquarters remaining at
Albuquerque, N. M; and the panhandle
areas of Oklahoma and Texas will be
made part of the western gulf re-
gion, with headquarters remaining at

Vegetable vine crops are all tender.
They should not be planted until the
ground is warm, and danger Of frost
is over. A sunny exposure and light
soil are best for the vines: and they
need plenty of water and food. be-
cause they grow so fast and produce
so much.
Cucumbers, squash, pumpkins and
melons are the principal vine crops.
Even the small garden can grow some
of them. Cucumbers should always be
tried; the early varieties mature in
two months, and they can easily be
restrained to a reasonable space. Pinch
off the ends of the vines which grow
too far; this will stimulate the setting
of fruit.
Bush squash need about 10 square
feet apiece. The Italian marrow is one
of the best; its fruits can be harvested
when three inches long. or at any
stage upward to three feet long. At
all sizes there is a delicious way to
serve them There is also bush
pumpkin taking about the same space
1t is not SO productive Of food, since
the fruits are allowed to mature; but
they make fine pumpkin pies and fair
jack-o-lanterns.
Melons need more room, as the vines
like to run. They should have light
soil, and full sun, and abundant plant
food. Mix in a tablespoonful to the
hill before planting. Choose melon
which will suit the season of growth
in your vicinity. There are varieties
which mature in from rs to ITO days
and as you cannot plant the seed
until the ground is warm, you can fig
ure out what are the chances of get
ting mature fruit before frost comes
Much depends on the weather; warm
sunny weather is required to produce
sweet melons.
If you have room, delicious winter
squash can be grown, such as Table
Queen and others. They will keep into
early winter, and are delicious when
baked in the rind.

Gasoline RatiOning
Will Cut Incomes
OF States Sharply

Rigid gasoline rationing in the east
err states will bring serious cuts in
the tax revenues OF state and local
governments. three senators who for
merry were state governors declared
in Washington.
The senators-Maybank, South Caro-
lima: Brewster. Maine, and Aiken. YER
mont-said dislocations in civilian life
would be extreme. but predicted in
interviews that Americans in the IT.
state ration zone would accept hard
ships cheerfully as their contribution
toward victory.
Maybank pointed out that many
southern states depend on part OF their
gasoline tax revenue to finance state
and local government and public
schools
Maybank said the problem of trans
porting freight and passengers under
gasoline restrictions would be especial
ly difficult in the south, for lack of
railroad facilities.
The rationing undoubtedly will hit
Vermont hard, Aiken said.
Brewster said the tourist business
normally brings slOOO00,O0O a year to
Maine and he foresaw heavy inroads
on that income.
Both Brewster and Aiken said every
effort should be made to utilize barges
to bring in oil from the mid-continent
The Erie canal is still there" Aiken
commented.

USE OF COPPER,
BRASS, BRONZE
DRASTICALLY CUT
ALL But ESSENTIAL ARTICLES
MADE OF THESE METALS
TO STOP SOON

Production OF all but essential ci-
villain consumer articles using copper.
brass or bronze will be stopped June
Is. under war production board orders.
In a sweeping revision OF previous
copper restrictions, emphasizing in
creased military demands for the
metal, WPB barred copper in more
than 100 additional items effective Nav
81. and directed that its use be stopped
June Is in all other items not spe-
Critically named except those for
which the government is allocating
supplies.
Beginning Aug l. the order applies
even to the army, navy and maritime
commission.
Items ranging from neon advertising
signs to Christmas tree bulbs, pins,
bird cages and fountain pens, are
blanketed under the revised order. and
WPB officials predicted that manu-
facture of most of the articles would
be stopped entirely. because OF the
shortages of metal substitutes.
More than one-third Of the pins
made in this country in 1910 and 1871
were brass: the rest were made of
steel. use of which has been severely
limited. Barber and beauty shop equip
ment, movie cameras and projectors,
electric razors, soda fountain and bar
equipment. cooking utensils, fishing
and hunting supplies, mechanical pen
ellis, binoculars, and cash registers
were among the other items listed.
Indicating necessity for the new re-
strictions. WPB said that while the
United States now controls about two
thirds Of the worlds entire copper
production, the expanding war effort
demands all of it and more"
Shortages of shipping space have
affected imports from South America,
WPB added, land every pound that
can be obtained from every source Is
needed If the war demand Is to BE-
met"
