"Our new home needs to be

would be Just the thing. Please
give me the proper dimensions
for boxes" D. p. w. requests.
Answer--It you have in mind
the old type window box that
was . trough filed with earth,
you are still browsing around
In the dead past. Our new
atomic age window box has many
features<that will appeal to you.
One outstanding advantage is
light weight. 80 that it does not
pull down the side Of the house.
It also allows you to change
flowers with push-button ease.
When the blooming season is
over for one plant. remove it,
pot and all, and replace it with
smother. Then in the fall, plants
and flowers that you wish to
keep can be brought into the
house.
Dimensions have been inten-
tionally omitted from the length
Of the box because it should be
made to 1T the window In front
Of which it win be placed. The
depth and width given are fol

Water vapor in air has the
property Of being able to pass
Through many materials that are
Iimpervious to water in its liquid
state. For instance, plaster and
the light building felt used over

inside becomes high. q pressure
lis developed which drives this
Ivapor through the sides Of the
house. Here 1t condenses on the
cold surface and the paint peels.
Those small vents that you
mention have been helpful In
many cases but they must be
placed at the top and bottom Of
the wall between each pair Of
studs so as to allow air circula-
tion. Proper ventilation Of the
house by opening windows is
helpful. Two or more coats Of la
tick paint on the inside walls Is
la good vapor barrier to prevent
penetration Of this moisture.

because similar differences occur in more
than 50 other species of animals, includ-
ing insects, fishes, other mammals and
reptiles. 1t is suspected, though not prov
en-, that the more liberal supply of female
sex hormones has some significance in
prolonging life. The known facts, how
ever, do not justify indiscriminate appli-
cation Of these potent substances.
TINE FEAR OF AGE. Our culture gIor-
ifieS youth and newness. considering age
to be only depreciation. Maturity is
rarely regarded as an asset or an achieve
ment worthy of the effort necessary to
attain it. Age is regarded as something
to be ashamed Of except when applied
to whiskey or antiques.
The strenuous efforts required to deny
age, to conceal it with cosmetic devices
and juvenile mannerisms, actually con-
tribute to physical aging. And Of course
such pitiful attempts fool no one.
DISEASE. Habits, heredity and hor-
mones play part, but by far the most
important cause of early or accelerated
aging is disease. Aging, in itself, does not
account for the common mental and
physical infirmities of old people. These
are consequences of chronic, slowly pro-
gressive diseases, including high blood

pressure, diabetes and arterioScleroSis,
which more often than not exist for
years without people being aware that
they are not well. If these disorders are
to be detected early enough so that treat
ment can prevent or retard their continu-
ing progression, they must be searched
for. If one waits until the signs are OBJ
vious, it may be too late. Then most of
the damage is irreversible.
Treatment must focus on prevention,
anticipation and control rather than on
cure. The maintenance of mental and
physical health into old age demands
years of intelligent self-discipline and
effort. Exceptional well-being as the sun
set of life approaches is very rarely acct
dental or lucky. Nature makes no allow
ance for good intentions. Every error of
life is paid for, sooner or later.
Rather than looking at age as period
Of melancholy decline, we all have the
choice of seeing it as an opportunity for
further growth, for maturing our minds
and personalities. Most of us can enjoy
these years in good health if we begin,
now. to invest in healthy habits and sem
Sible medical care. What we are today
has been determined largely by what we
did in our yesterdays. What we will be-
come tomorrow is affected by our actions
today. The End

Editor Of a farm newspaper:
The farmer IS a pretty sensible
fellow. He would be the last one
to expect help from the govern

take subsidies. And he knows he
cant borrow himself out of debt.
But he is faced with little alter
native than to accept assistance.
Just as one small example, a
power mower he bought for s135
in 1910 now costs S325. His IN

his expenditures. And since such

IN view of the famers' many

asked frequently what they would
propose as the best means of as

Several suggested that a floor

with paying direct subsidies to
farmers such as are now being
paid to wool and sugar growers?"
A frequent suggestion was heard
that better prices be offered for
corn taken out Of production.
Regulation Of meat packers
prices was another suggestion.
What the farmers appeared to
want more than anything men
toned above and apparently what
they are getting, is a public ap-
probation of the seriousness and
scope of their problem. If there
Is apathy in the present campaign,
it exists less on the farm than in

Flowing And
Politics Mixed
AT Contest
By Max K. Gilstrap


Newton, Iowa
Are you for Ike or Adlai?"
A farmer in blue denims push
ed back his straw hat and squinted
down from the top of a red-paint
ed hay baler at one end of a big
crowded tent.
A tunefEl square dance was in
progress at the other end of the
tent. Four farmers astride indi-
vidual tractors we're whizzing a
round and around as "caller"
shouted above the lively music Of

attention was recently centered
when President Eisenhower and
Adlai E. Stevenson spoke on sue
eessiye days to farmers attending
the National Flowing Contests.
Politics was beginning to appear
simple in contrast to the farmers
complicated world, which here in
cluded everything from a tractor
square dance to intricate converse
