The Healthy Way To
Weigh Less
BY BILLIE A KNOX

Do you need to lose weight?
Do you want to lose weight?
Well, the only way you can
take your belt in is to eat
less and exercise more.
But, remember no matter
how much you huff and puff,
! you just can't shake it off,
rock it off, knock it off,or
bake it off.
Now you are probably ask
ing yourself this question, eff
/ am overweight, what should
I do to be underweight''? The
main thing is to learn and
follow the Basic Four food
group.
/. The milk g~roup-milk,
cheese and ice cream.
2. The meat group - beef,
veal, lamb, pork, poultry,
eggs and fish.
8. The vegetable and fruit
group = fruits and vegetables
rich in vitamin A and G.
4. The bread-cereal group
whole grain, enriched or re-
stored.
Include foods from each of
these groups each day.
Unless a person is seriously
overweight, he can merely
cut down on his daily intake
of foods. Exercise helps, too.
It will use those extra calories
and tone your muscles.
Beware of fad diets and
magazine articles to encour-
age rapid loss of weight. A
person should always see his
| doctor and get his advice be-
Holmes County herald., 1960-11-03

fore attempting a diet of any
kind, especially a strenuous
one. In any diet loss of more
than one pound a week is not
recommended. This is be-
cause your body's system
must familiarze itself with
this change and in so doing
your body's resistance to
colds and other contagious
diseases will be very low.
Let's summarize by say
ing this: eat well balanced
meals but less food, and be-
ware of food fads.
After you have lost weight
and you are tempted again,
remember: We don't want
to go through this all over
again.

coming crop of upland cotton,
Chairman Ethan A. Porter of
the Mississippi Agricultural
Sterilization and Conserva-
ton State Committee announc-
ced today.
If approved in the referen-
dunn, the system of quotas
would apply to the 1861 cot
ton crop. This would be the
eighth successive year in
which quotas have been in
effect for upland cotton.
Upland cotton quotas have
been proclaimed by the Sec
rotary of Agriculture on the
basis of an official determine
ton that estimated total sup
ply of cotton for 1960-61 will
amount to approximately PIT
million running bales, or a.
bout 3 million bales above
normal. The law requires the
proclamation of quotas by
October Is, in any year when
the total supply exceeds nor
NAL. Quotas do not take eff
feet, however, unless APPROX
ed by at least two-thirds of
the growers voting in the re-
ferendum.
In announcing the upland
cotton program for 1861,
Chairman Porter pointed out
that only one allotment-price
support program will be avail
able to growers for their 1861
cotton crop. Legislation pro-
vided the so-called Choice (A)
and OBJ programs only for
1859 and 1860.
The national cotton allot-
ment for 1861, he said, has
been determined at Is, 1896, 424
acres, compared with Is mil
lion acres in 1860. This 1861
national allotment, plus a
national reserve of $4,000
acres, will be broken down to
States and counties, and in
dividual farm allotments will
be made available to pro-
ducers before the referendum.
The 1861 farm allotments as
compared to 1860 may vary
considerably in the extent to
which they reflect the nation
al increase, Mr.. Porter said.
