It would seem lo the writer as though the wise thing for the farmer to do at this time, is to hang on to what he has been used lo, and live on what he can grow on his farm, and wearing patch upon patch, try to keep his taxes paid and to stay even with the world until the depression lifts. Changes of fashion must be forgotten and nothing remembered but the strictest rules of economy should be remembered and followed. From a report by the Weekly News r.ul-Jetin of the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture it appears that a number of farmers are thinking of going into the mushroom business.

Each farmer should think carefully uc-fore he tries something he does not understand in these times. The statement in the News Bulletin follows: Raisins; Mushrooms May Not Prove Profitable Inquiries reaching the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture indicate that thousands of people throughout the country are seriously considering the mushroom business as a remunerative side line. Practically every state in the Union is represented by these inquiries. With this interest prevailing, the industry becomes a fruitful field for promoters who misrepresent one or more phases of tlia enterprise in order to sell spawn, state officials report. As Federal authorities have recently explained, growing mushrooms is not a new and unexploited business; it is an enterprise requiring considerable capital and experience; it is not filled with prospects of large profits.

Rather, the business requires painstaking et-fort and experience, and during the past year, even the most extensive and expert growers in many localities have been compelled to sell their crop at less than the cost of production. For those who have the desire to grow mushrooms, the bureau of statistics and information, Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture, can supply information on reliable sources of mushroom 3pawn and the U. S. Department of Agriculture in Washington, D. can supply informational bulletins.

HOOVER'S SUPPORT A'hon 'resident Hoover closed his acceptance speech the evening of August 11, each Republican that had listened in, walked away from the radio convinced that the President had made his re-election easy. Every Democrat that had listened in walked away from the radio with his teeth closed, gloom in his eye and a deadly fear in his heart that the Democracy had reached its Waterloo in this campaign with the firing of the first Republican signal gun. The whole people walked away from that radio convinced that President Hoover had placed in the political archives of this country one of its most important documents.

How will it work out? There probably never was a time in the history of this country when political promises were regarded with the same degree of suspicion as such promises are looked upon now. There was never a time in the history of this country when political platforms and political utterances had less weight with the average voter than they have at this time. Today it is performance alone that carries conviction to the people. The acceptance speech of Mr. Hoover carried sound performance with it as the basis of the promises of future action.

At this time the people want a plan by and through which this depression may be lifted. President Hoover has a clear-cut and distinct plan for lifting this depression. He not only has a plan he intends to follow, but he has a plan that he is following. This gives the people a promise based on performance, which is exactly what the people want. preparing for one of those hard-boiled parts.

So They Say: partner did not have a possible reentry, and second, that declarer, as soon as he pulled the trump, would immediately set the diamonds upon which to discard his losing hearts.

East's problem was to kill the dummy before the diamonds could be set so he boldly returned a club right into dummy's Ace-queen-ten. Dummy won the trick with the ten. The king- of diamonds was returned from dummy. East winning with the ace and never hesitated, but immediately returned another club lo the dummy's ace and queen. Declarer won the trick in dummy with the queen of clubs.

The queen of diamonds in c'ummy was cashed, nnd now you can sec that East has diamond suit stopped and can kill the dummy on the next hand. It looks as if all that the declarer can do is to lead his ace of clubi from dummy and discard one of his losing hearts. Now I have shown you how to de-' feat the contract of four spades. Can you see any way of still making the contract even with this marvelous defense? Here is how it can be done lead the ten of diamonds from the dummy. East will cover with the jack and now, don't trump with the three of spades, but with the ten spot and lead the three of spades, discarding a heart from dummy.

East will be thrown in the lead with his nine of spades and must now lead a club to dummy's ace. and the declarer can discard his three losing; hearts on dummy's three good diamonds. This last play might be classed as a double dummy play, but it presents an interesting angle to this unusual hand. Luncheon: Eres tomato graham cake, milk, tea.

THE TRUTH ABOUT TOOTH PASTE The experts of the Department of Agriculture has debunked the tooth that is advertised to cure all kinds of tooth ailments, and states that the different pastes simply clean the teeth, and will do nothing else. The statement by the Department follows Tooth pastes and other dentifrices have only one important function: They clean the teeth. While some are advertised as cures or preventives for pyorrhea, Riggs disease, tender gums, or other mouth disorders, the buyer will find very few, if any, dentifrices entering into interstate trade actually labeled with remedial claims for these maladies.

According to expert dental opinion there is no drug or combination of drugs capable of curing pyorrhea and certain other diseases of the mouth, according to Dr. F. J. Cullen. of the Federal Food and Drug Administration.

Nor may the buyer expect to find any tooth paste which has any permanent effect in correcting tooth decay and what is popularly known as halitosis, he adds. Dentifrices are useful for cleaning Ihe teeth, says Doctor Cullen, but some so-called "teeth whiteners" contain harmful acids, such as hydrochloric acid, which have a destructive effect upon the enamel of the teeth. A person who uses a preparation containing such chemicals does so at some peril. The law does not require that a label declare the presence of this acid if it is present. The buyer may, however, discover through investigation, or through consulting his druggist, whether or not a dentifrice contains hydrochloric acid.

Dentifrices have no magical composition, says Cullen. Their ingredients include precipitated chalk, soap, water, baking soda, borax, magnesia, glycerin, alcohol a sweetening agent and medicinal oils intended to give the article an attractive color or taBte. Some tooth pastes have a medicinal taste, but in spite of popular opinion to the contrary, this does not mean that they have any remedial merit in the treatment of diseases of the mouth. bouth continued with the queen ot spades which East won with the ace.

CAREFUL BUDGETING ASSURES AMPLE VARIETY WITHOUT SHORTAGE OR WASTE the United States. If his plan is to succeed he must have support. The first sentence in Section Eleven of 'the President's acceptance speech follows: 'The first necessity of the nation, the wealth and income of whose citizens has been reduced, is to reduce expenditures on government, national, state and local." That is an important part of the President's plan for lifting this depression.

The national expenditures are partly in his control, but the state and local expenditures are in no sense under his control. Some of those states are in Republican control, and a part of them are in Democratic control. Will the Democratic slates hfilp the Presi- dent to carry out his plan' by complying with his wishes to reduce the expenditures of the state and local governments? That will depend entirely on the extent to which the Republican campaigners can I compel such reductions, by pointing out the reductions that shall be made in the cost of those governments in order that prosperity may return to us. The most glaring instance of a refusal, or neglect, to follow the President's leader-' ship, occurred just where he had the least pos-i sible reason to expect such action. By the time this editorial goes lo press, the Legislature of Pennsylvania will have ad-; journed, or it will be well on its way to ad- journment.

There has been a little cheese-; paring about the cost of the government of i Pennsylvania, but there has been no definite I action taken to make those reductions in com-; pliance with the plan of the President. Exorbitant war-price salaries remain the same. There has been no clear-cut attempt to reorganize the leadership of the President in the cut in the cost of government. I On August 12, the morning after the President delivered his acceptance speech, the i Legislature of Pennsylvania, being then in session, or as soon thereafter as it came into session, should have dearly acted on the Pres-' ident's plan, and should have prepared to im-l mediately cut the cost of government to a iu IL. ii 11 Editor's Note: This is the first of a series of six at tides home canning, written by Sister Mary, food expert for Indiana Evening Gazette and NKA Service.
