The other is William Sinkular, who

most Of the grain which he feeds
them. In the last few years he has
netted between $4,000 and SIS, 1000

was the first around Gregory to join

first to speak up for the Roosevelt
administration.

Sugar Gives Squirt
OF Energy to Heart

I have spoken before of the ex-
periments conducted by Harvard re-
search workers during the running
of the Boston Marathon several
years ago. The results showed that
the amount of sugar present in the
blood at the end of the race indicat-
ed the condition of the runner. The
greater the amount of sugar present
in the blood, the better was the phys
ical condition of the runner and the
nearer he was to being among the
leaders at the finish. BY having GER
tain runners take more sugar daily
during the following year and during
the race of that year, these runners
not only finished in better condition
but were higher up in the race than
they were the previous year.
Why is sugar-dextrose-so help
full in giving energy to the muscles?
In the Cincinnati Journal of Medi-
cine, DR.. Edward Podolsky, Brook
Ign, states that treatment by dex-
trose is one of the most valuable
procedures in the treatment Of heart
disease. The chief reason why dex-
trose is so helpful in heart disease
is that it supplies so readily the nec-
essary food for the hard working
heart. Another reason is that dex-
trose helps to dilate or open up the
blood vessels so that it requires less
effort for the heart to pump blood
through them.
Fortunately dextrose can be taken
by mouth; the patient takes two or
three ounces of sugar dissolved in a
glass of water or weak tea three or
four times daily for a period of two
to three months. This produces a
Tasting" effect.
When sugar cannot be given by
mouth or by hypodermic injection
it may be given in the form of an
enema. Another method often used
in hospitals is injecting the dextrose
into a vein.
The thought, then, when we are
tired from muscular exercise or
work, or in cases of weak or failing
heart, is to use sugar or candy to
supply "quick'' nourishment to the
heart.

Educational Program
HeIped Country

Now let "Bill'' Sinkular state his
case:
"The New Deal-not the whole set
up-gave the farmer an educational
program that's been a life saver
for this country. In 1884 this coun-
try was desert. 1t had been ruined
by dust storms and drouth. In 1884
l received $1,000 for seed, and it
saved my farm.
''But I don't think all the sub
sides they are paying out now
are necessary. All that money
that's being paid out now to
farmers who are prospecting
must be paid in by somebody.
I don't think the subsidies are
an attempt to buy votes; but
the farmers themselves should
know that imitation won't do
them any good.
"Many farmers would take any,
thing they could get hold of, and
yet these same men are the great
est enemies of the New Deal-the
men who have profited most from it."
H. e. Mckee, vice president and
director of the Northwest Security
National bank, and manager of the
Gregory Branch, strongly supports
this anti-inflation point of view. He
has seen the deposits in his branch
mount from $751;, 1000 at the end of
1941 to 1880, 900 today, and in the
same period has seen loans decline
from 1894, 1000 to $430,000. Farmer
spectators are buying up the land
today at prices that are too high, he
declares.
''In the last year." he said, "the
Regional Agricultural Credit corpo-
ration has been lending money to
anyone who would take care of more
livestock to increase the meat sup
ply. In 1910 there were 1852, 900
head of cattle in the county. To-
day there are more than three mil
lion head. It is the same with sheep
and hogs; and it is about the same in
other Western states.
"What we are doing is laying up
an enormous surplus on the farms.
If they let this go on for another
two or three years it will wreck
farming. Wen have the same con-
dition that occurred after the last
war;"
The midland journal. (Rising Sun, Md.) 1885-1947, 1944-02-04

Usually, the Republicans have
carried the county by slight ma
jority. In 1924, year of the Coolidge
landslide, the COP got 81 per cent
of the votes. Again last year the
Republican percentage was the
same. But in the first New Deal
election Roosevelt left the Republic
cans only 26 per cent Of the vote,
and in 1896 AZ per cent. But in 1910
the voters veered to the other side,
and So per cent of the votes were
tailed under the Republican en-
blem.
Even though the people Of Greg
ory dislike many things about the
New Deal, they do not forget the
years when the Triple A saved them
through seed loans, helped them to
hold their produce for better prices
and brought new ways of farming
that made the prairie soil more
profitable.
Most of them think today that the
time has come for a change. This
is true even of some of the most
staunch defenders of the New Deal,
who feel that the administration is
becoming too entrenched in power,
too set in its ways, too far away
from the people.
Gregory is on the edge Of the cat
tie country, but there is extensive
growing of wheat, corn, barley and
forage along with cattle, hog and
sheep raising.
Here is to be found the con-
fict of social and political trends
that underlie the whole fabric of
American politics today the
clash between the conservatives
and the liberals-the traditional
and the new-those seeking safe
ty and those set for adventure.
Dramatically illustrating this con-
flict are the views of two men liv-
ing on farms that are close together,
both of whom took up homesteads 80
years ago when the land was opened,
both of whom have had their ups
and downs, but are today more pros
porous than ever before.
One is E. c. higgins, wheat farm
err, who came here from the cattle
country along the Missouri Breaks.
He knew the Indians, ranched and

Intelligent planning for the pur-
chase Of foods according to the fam
lily needs, plus a proper knowledge
of how to care for foods not used
Immediately after they are bought,
how to protect 'left-overs' that must
be stored from meal to meal and
how to detect spoilage, will pay
large dividends in the avoidance of
unsafe foods and in protection for
the family budget"
The family cupboard is not suit
able storage place for cooked meat
especially luncheon meats and
cured meats. All meat should be
kept in one of the coolest shelves in
the refrigerator.
Further, once meat is purchased
it should be cooked within a few
hours as the average "home" re-
frigerator is nowhere near as cold
as the refrigerator from which the
meat was obtained.
Another suggestion from Mrs.
Brown is that while ''leftovers"
cooked and eaten may seem safe
dilu SdNAlSS uCtCA LIAClCSS, preventing
leftovers is safer and more saving.
The housewife should study her
needs carefully and have fewer left
overs. Leftovers should be heated
again before serving which should be
within "a hours after the first cook
ing.
Food that has an ''off'' or unde-
sirable odor must not be used. Even
boiling food with an "off" odor is
not sufficient to make it safe.
If fermentation and gas appear,
or there is mould on top of the food,
discard the entire cannot simply
the part that appears spoiled.
The way to detect odors is to heat
the food and smell it when it first
becomes hot. An odor is more no
ticeable when the lid is first lifted.
If in doubt, discard the food.
Those afflicted with catarrh or 9TH
er conditions affecting the sense of
smell and taste are not qualified to
judge as to the fitness of food for
eating.
