AND
A KIND WORD FOR
THE DOCTOR

A good strong suggestion has
come to me that something nice
ought to be said for the doctor.
Well, why not? The doctor is with
US from the cradle to the grave, he
always sees us at our worst and If
he can continue to put up with US
and get joy out of serving US, he
deserves more than an ordinary
plug.
Those of US who are always COM
planning because we need doctor
in our isolated coastland commune
ties and because none will come
and settle among us pretend to be
nightly puzzled. Instead of being
puzzled we should do a little pom
dering. Instead of asking why is
it no doctor will come and settle
here? ?" we might ask "what is the
matter with us?"
We who live in the coastland,
where it is easy to exist more east
ly than any other place under the
sun, look upon the doctors usual
income among US as something
lush and rosy. Maybe the same a
mount of money would be rosy for
US if we got it for no more than
we are now doing. But we must
remember that the doctor has to
give up an entire eight to ten years
and often more of his life to pre-
pare himself to be a doctor. Few
of US ever give up any time before
we go to work at whatever we can
do. The long years of study tend

Legume Cover Crops
Needed. Sow in Corn

Delaware farmers recognize the
value of winter cover crops, but we
need more legume cover crops.
One of the best known ways to get
a cover is to sow it in corn at the
last cultivation.
VIM. H. Mitchell, assistant ag-
economist of the Delaware Agricul-
tural Extension Service, recon-
mends a crimson clover-ryegrass
mixture for this seeding. Crimson
clover can be used alone, but is
harder to establish. Mitchell ad-
vises planting Is pounds per acre
of clover alone, or minimum of
six pounds of clover and nine
pounds of ryegrass per acre. The
mixture seeding can be increased
just follow the two parts of clover
TO three of ryegrass" formula.
The trick in getting a good le-
gume stand is to cover the seed
Cover it lightly but definitely cover
used several different covering
methods successfully, but none has
proved best as yet. Getting il
covered is the important point.
Corn crops that follow legumt
cover crops do better than those or
bare ground, or following small
grains. In the 1850 Corn Yielt
Contest, land that had a crimson
clover ryegrass cover produced al
{. average of 96 bushels per acre
Corn planted on ground left bart
over winter produced rs bushe
per acre average.

What Rayons Are washable {?

"Rayons are still a favorite of
many women, but the problem of
instability sometimes cause
shoppers to buy other textiles,
says Miss Ruth E. Pearee.
Miss Pearce, clothing specialist,
of the Delaware Agricultural Ex-
tension Service, passes on some
facts to remember if you want
instability in the rayon you buy.
First, says Miss Pearce, look for
a smooth even weave. Crepe or
spongy weaves indicate that the
fabric may crinkle and shrink.
Second, look for firm weave, one
in which the threads stay firmly in
place, without fuzziness and ravell-
ing that ruins seams. Third, look
for color-fast dyes, that won't run
or fade in washing. To test color,
clip a piece from the seam, and
shake it in a glass of hot suds, and
watch for coloring in the water.
Be sure that trimmings are fast
color, too.
Fourth, look for special finishes
that make some formerly hard to
wash" rayons washable. If the
fabric is so treated, the label will
tell you so.
Common sense can be the guide
to hand-washing versus machine
washing, Miss Pearce suggests. If
the label doesn't tell you, look at
the construction and the weave. A
well-constructed carmen, with a
firm fabric can often be thrown
into the washer. But dainty ray
ons, such as lingerie crepes, wash
able sheers, tissue failles, and
others, need gentle handling. Use
lukewarm water and mild soaps,
and never soak fine fabrics.

Americans Need More
Natural Foods, Says Expert

Americans eat too many refined
calories, and not enough of the
healthful natural foods" DR.. Give
McCay of Cornell University told
the Homemakers' Short Course
audience at the University of Della
ware last week.
DR.. McCay, known for his work
on diet effects on health and aging,
gave four practices that he feels
need correction in the American
diet. (1) Americans are overeat-
ing on sugar. They consume 100
pounds per person annually, when
80 to 40 pounds would be sufficient.
(2) The U. S. consumes between
three and four percent of its calor-
les in the form of alcoholic bever-
ages. 90 Many people are over
eating on fats, and not eating
enough fruits and vegetables. (4)
Americans eat too much refined
cereals.

Romemaking Is Hazardous, Doctor Claims

The homemaker is engaged in
a more dangerous occupation than
the average worker, according to
DR.. Howard A. Rusk, head of the
Institute of Physical Medicine and
Rehabilitation at New York Uni
versity's Bellevue Medical Center.
He says the accident rate for
homemakers exceeds that for men
workers by 1920.
Safety experts maintain one
reason for this startling record is
that the average housewife has
little or no specialized training to
equip her for daily contact with
hot liquids, fire, sharp tools and
the complicated appliances she
must use. Often she does not
know the proper first aid proce-
dure when accidents do occur.
Men, on the other hand, are given
protective clothing and complete
training when they work with
such equipment.
Another reason for the high
rate of home accidents is that
many of the dangers are disguised
in shiny enamel or metal cover
ings.
Statistics show that the kitchen
is one of the greatest danger spots
in the home, accounting for more
than one-third of all home acci-
dents, with burns and scalds tax
ing toll of about 4,600 lives
every year.
Lack Of knowledge about burn

the high fatality rate. Many house
wives unknowingly use worthless

DEFENSE AIDS
GO TO SCHOOL
Local Civil Defense Directors
Being Offered EeScue
Training Course
Al OLNEY, MARYLAND

The State Department of Civil
Defense has announced that an ad-
vanced rescue training course is
being offered the local directors.
The course will be presented by the
Federal Civil Defense Administra-
tion Staff College at Olney, Mary
land from July 9th through No
vember, Is, 1852, The course will
be divided into two parts, the first
is the regular Staff School, the
other part is special advanced
course in Rescue Training. The
second part Of the prescribed Ad-
Vanced Training Course this year
included the use of newly con-
structed rescue street, which is
made up of partially demolished
buildings, fashioned after, the
death and destruction rained on
the English cities by the German
Air Force during the World War
II. According to DIR. Milton Town
er, Director of FCDA Staff College,
this rescue course will bring Civil
Defense training as near to an act
ual bombing as possible. When the
Civil Defense Administration got
ready to build Rescue Street they
sent to England young engineer
Harold Topper, to learn all he
could about life saving instruction,
realistic in its stimulation of re-
leasing victims from structural en-
trapments. The Rescue Streets in
England have been in operation for
the past seven years. At Olney,
Rescue Street has types of dwell
ings and shops that would be rec
ognized by any American, though
it resembles no street built before.
There is a big frame house, with
two stories and basement. 1t
was collapsed by bulldozer, SO
that its floors and furniture fell
through from the simulated bomb
explosion. A radio lies fiat on its
face, a davenport perched at a
craft angle and lamps and chairs
tossed basement-ward. The next
house on Rescue Street is four
family fiat, constructed of brick
and mortar. The structure offers
different problem, with its pan
caked walls, and broken water and
gas mains. Here rescue workers
wade in with hip boots and gas
masks. The three story structure
next door, might be business of
fee, or an apartment building =.
all that's left is steel skelton and
rubble filling the upper floors, in
the basement the problem present
is one of broken gas and water
mains, electricity and installations.
A business block and garage
complete the street. Viewed as a
whole, Rescue Street illustrates
the stages of bomb destruction
from a great rubble to a business
block which is the least damaged.
The trainees at Olney will be
teachers of teachers, and grant in
aid fund of about $8,000,000 is
available to the States to set SIM
liar training systems.
