sI,IrUR AND MOLAsSEs

Mother thinks that flowers of sulfur is good to clean out the ln- testines and will not hurt one to take internally. Your advice about his will be appreciated by many. CMrs. G. S)
 Come spring and sulfur and mo- lasses-annually queries about sul- fur and cleaning out the system" or purifying the blood" begin to be freuuent in the mail nearly 8 month before the biggest liar in the neighborhood sees the first robin. Up north, that is. Down south where it is always spring there are no robins.
 Sulfur is a mild laxative. It is commonly used for that purpose in the form of compound licorice powder" mixture of washed sulfur Blowers of sulfur), hcorice powder, powdered senna leaves. fennel and sugar-this is now more correctly called compound senna powder. for 1t is chiefly the senna the gives the laxative effect.
 Other than the mild laxative ef- feet of sulfur it has no medicinal effect when given internally, so far as we know. It is as nearly harm less as a laxative can be.
 The notion that sulfur "purifles the blood" probably grew out of the observation that sulful physicks- the ancients imagined that any, thing that physicked somehow re- moved impurities" from the blood what impurities nobody but the quacks knew and, for protection Of the trade the quacks never told.
 If you are fond of fussing there is no harm at all in mixing up a mess of flowers of sulfur or wash ed sulfur and molasses- pound for pound or ounce for ounce - and taking teaspoonful or a table spoonful once a day on empty stomach - say at bedtime - for g. few weeks in the spring. By the time the big thaw comes you'll be ready to take advantage of the inn proved condition out wonder.
 The molasses itself Is slightly laxative, and it adds pleasant flavor to the otherwise uninterest- ing sulfur.
 Mind, now, ol' timers, I do not advise any one to take sulfur. I merely assure you that it is corn- paratively harmless if you want to take it. Please do not queer me with any of the youngsters by tellS ing them I said sulfur or com pound senna powder Compound licorice powder) or sulfur and mo- lasses is good for what ails them. say nothing of the sort.

Selected Poem
MY HEART IS HIGH

MY HEART IS HIGH Maurice Hill in The Christian Science Monitor) My heart is high with meadowlarks My heart is winging hills My heart is where the tallest trees Touch heavens window-sills. My heart is wide with rainbow fields, My heart draws rivers in; My heart is reaching, stretching far Where ocean shores begin. My heart is deep with daffodils. My heart has songs to sing; My heart is deep my heart is wide, My heart is high with spring!

a grant of money to the CAA to do necessary research. The proposal was immediately looked on with suspicion by airplane manufactur- CTS.
 John E. P Morgan, head of the Personal Aircraft Council in the Aeronautical Chamber of Com merce, wrote Wright that this look ed as If the CAA was delving into development and manufacture ot civil aircraft, prerogative of the industry.
 In short, notice was served on the government to stick to its adminis- trative duties and let the industry do its own technological develop ment.
 WRIGHT WOULDN'T WANT
 TO HARM THE INDUSTRY
 A curious sidelight to this con- troversy is that Wright was until 1940 vice president and director of engineering for Curtiss- Wright and would probably be one of the last men in flying who would do any, thing detrimental to the industry. But for daring to say that there would have to be better airplanes for private flying if aviation is to develop as a postwar industry he got slapped down by the people he was trying to help.
 The case against small airplanes of today is long and pretty we'll documented Basic guidebook is a report on the postwar outlook for private flying made by John H. Geisse and Samuel c. Williams for Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Air William A. M. Burden.
 Surveys in that report showed that of every 100 people who took up flying before the war, only 15 completed the course, and that the average private plane purchaser stayed an owner for less than four years, then gave up flying alto- gether.
 Reasons advanced for giving up flying included statements that it was too expensive, that it was more difficult and less fun than had been anticipated, that members of the family objected, that it took too much time getting out to the air. port, that personal planes weren't useful enough because they required automobiles or long walks at both ends of the trip, and that there wasn't any place to go except up in the air because there weren't enough airports close to the places they wanted to go.
 NEED THEM AT 5000 OR LESS
 What this all adds up to is need for plane that will sell for less than $2,000, can be maintained for less than $5 an hour flying time, will be safer and easier to fly, more versatile as to its uses. It is the con- tention of some flying authorities that even the most modern planes offered for private flying today are seven years old That points up the question of who is going to do the research and development for a plane that will meet the demand and build up the industry.
 In 1883, Eugene Vidal, then Sec retary of the Bureau of Aeronau- tics, went all-out on campaign to stimulate private flying and thus contributed to bringing productior and sales of private planes from 436 in that year to 4.40O in 1940. h. dustry surveys estimate production and sales of about 5000 private planes year after the war, but that assumes the selling of pre-wa1 type planes for pre-war flying con- ditionS.
 With a more salable and more useful plane, T. P. Wright has esti- mated that there is a demand fol eight or 10 times that number leading up to operation of 400, ,0O( private planes in 10 years.

Famous Football Pioneer Urges
Revision Of Rules Of Game

Revision of rules for football to
reduce deaths and major injuries
to players is urged by Edward B.
Cochems, football authority.
Pioneer of the forward pass and
star football figure Of the past
half century, he proposed the
change to make the game more
sporting, giving little teams
chance against big teams and make
the game at least so per cent more
interesting to watch.
Rule changes advocated by Coch-
ems include: l, move the goal posts
back to the goa, lines; 2, eliminate
the huddle; 3, put strict limitations
on the use of substitutes; 4, auto
matically expel player for clipping;
5, at end of half, place the ball
at the roint Of its fartheSt advance
and resume play from that point
at the beginning of the second
half under the same conditions as
now prevail after the first and third
quarters; 6, eliminate the distance
provisions (ten yards in four
downs) in the Downs to Distance"
rule and give each team, alter
nately. seven consecutive downs for
offensie play; Z, permit one for
ward pass beyond the line of scrim-
mage in any given set for seven
downs.
According to CochemS, with the
new rules the game would be about
95 per cent more sporting and fatal
tiles and serious injuries would be
cut to minimum.

Agricultural Tools Rationing Called Off,
But War Demand Will Limit the Supply
Big Increase in
Parts, However,
Will Be Available

The farmers of America are
continuing, as usual, to do a
magnificent job of producing
foodstuffs. In 1914, for the eighth
successive year, they produced
a record food total despite a
steadily dwindling manpower
supply that reached its lowest
point in 35 years.
Agricultural tools are no longer
rationed, but that doesn't mean that
the farmer, though he has the mon
ey, is going to be able to get that
new tractor or combine he wishes
so he can improve on the produc-
ton miracle he has already accom-
plished.
It's the same old trouble we've
had since Pearl Harbor. There's a
war onl Manufacture of farm ma
chinery, although recognized as an
essential civilian "must" program,
has to be balanced in relation to d.
rect war production,
Here is the way the govern
ment sums up the situation:
During the 1945 crop year it is
expected that American farmers
will obtain approximately the
same amount of new farm ma

chimes, reported in October, 1914,
that by March, 1945, it would prob
ably be short 5000 workers needed
to keep production up to schedule.
In effect, during the war this
country has asked its farmers to
raise more crops with less men
to do the work, to keep their
farm equipment in working or
der somehow without counting
too heavily on requirements,
and to share their machines with
other farmers whenever and
wherever possible.
To help farmers keep their ma
chimes going, manufacture of repair
parts and attachments has been in
creased considerably. In 1914 the
scheduled production of repair parts
and attachments amounted to ap-
proximately 1873 per cent of the to-
tai farm machinery output, as COM
pared with IA per cent in 1910.
Twenty-one per cent more farm
commodities were produced in 1914
than in 1910 with 5 per cent fewer
workers.
The annual employment on Amer
lean farms decreased from 1885,
600 in 1910 to 10, ,037, 1000 in 1914. Ap-
proximately 100000 workers have
left agriculture for war industries
or the armed forces.
approximately 100000 farm men
had entered the military service up
to January /, 1945.
American farmers have been
getting more use out Of individ-
ual farm machines during
the war. The exchange and CO.
operative use Of some machines,
such as tractors and combines,
has increased markedly. One
corn picker, for example, might
be used to harvest as much as
1900 acres of corn in q year.
Combines have been hauled q
thousand miles to harvest crops
ON farms in county after county.
The midland journal., 1945-03-23

as cast iron, rubber, zinc, copper,
that had gone into farm machines
in pre-war days, had to be diverted
to make tanks, military trucks,
landing craft, guns and other war
goods.
In 1889 American farmers
were able to buy 161, 600 new trac-
tors. But that was a year when
this country made only 2,141
planes. In the calendar year Of
1943, when American farmers
were able to buy a mere $1,000
new tractors, the United States
manufactured more than $1,000
pIanes-mainly for war.
The critical shortage of raw ma
terials that put a ceiling on manu-
facture of new farm machines in
1912 has been superseded by short
age of manpower and components.
During the first quarter of the 1945
farm machinery production year,
manufacture of new machinery-ex-
elusive of wheel tractors, repair
parts and attachments-was approx
imately Is per cent behind sched-
ule.
This lag in production was caused
by manpower shortages and the diff
ficulty in obtaining components,
chiefly malleable and gray iron cast
ings. In the Middle West, where
most of American farm machinery
is made, the labor supply is made
quate, a condition that will not
change while war goods are still ur-
gently needed. One concern, that

Considering the types of machines
in use on American farms, the re-
placements required and the crop
shifts necessitated by war, WAS
current farm machinery program
continues to emphasize the manu-
facture of such labor-saving machin-
cry as corn pickers, side delivery
rakes and pickup hay balers. WFA,
however, has requested the manu-
facture for MAe 1945 crop year of
more planting, fertilizing and tillage
equipment than for 1914. Included
are such items of farm equipment
as corn and cotton planters, listers,
potato planters, beet and bean drills,
endgate seeders, fertilizer distribu-
tors, tractor plows and cultivators,
disc harrows, walking cultivators
and rotary hoes. IL
During the war, manufacture Of
farm machinery, although recog-
nized as an essential civilian must"
program, has had to be balanced in
relation to direct war production.
When the United States entered
the war, production of farm machin-
cry was sharply curtailed because
munitions production had become an
exacting demand on this country's
supply of steel. The steel, as well
