He said thousands of health conscious Americans fall victim to it. Dr. Fredrick J. Stare, chair man of department of nutrition, said combating the crackpots and faddists seemed to be a never-ending task. The racket is so big.

he said, that one firm employed 15.000 canvassers to sell made from parsley, watercress and a alfalfa base. Stare told the closing session of the 2-day National Congress on Medical Quackery that more people fall for false food promotion than for any other product in the health field. Sea water has become particularly popular with the food quacks, he said. Its success is based on the misconception that because sea water contains many minerals it is healthy to drink some every day. "From this it is only a step to flagrantly false claims that sea water is a panacea for all the diseases of Stare said in his prepared remarks.

The cost of food fakes cannot be measured in dollars alone, he said They create a major health problem by fooling Americans into buying such things as garlic pills to cure hi -h blood pressuri and grapes to cure cancer. "There are times when people actually create or contribute dietary deficiencies by abandoning norma! diets and turning to so-called health foods, he complained. He urged the federal government to take more vigorous ac- "Bookkeeping because Mr. Conley will answer my questions is my favorite says SANDRA Born Oct. 17, 1943, 1 Sandra says just her holm; swii.imin;-,.

Pat, wh lists typing a his fa i Philosopher is Worried 23 People Depend on Him for Food Editor's rote: The Red River Philosopher on Johnson grass farm on Red River probably misinterpreting the facts this week.

Certainly we re not dependinq on him to feed us. Dear edilar: I know a lot of people worried the possibility of an atomic war, but they make a mistake when they worry about it too much. I mean, with all the other things to worry about, why get in a rut? For example, I was reading some statistics about farmers last night in a copy of a newspaper somebody threw out of his car as it passed my Johnson grass farm out here earlier in the day, and according to it, the percentage of farmers to the rert of the population in the United States continues to A hundred years ago, farmers were in the majority, then the cities and towns started gaining, picking up especially in last few years. In fact, farmers lost 23 per cent of their numbers from 1954 to 1961, iust seven years. Today, only nine per cent of the countv's population can be called a farmer.

But that not the thinq to worry about it this. The number of people in town a fa-mer to fned is increasing, As the farm pop- ulatior dowr and the city population uo, the burden on the ei get' heavier. A hundred ago, one farmer produced enough for four others. Today, he to produce enough for himseh twenty-three others, according to the United States Department Agriculture. what I'm talking I know who the twenty-three people are in Bonham I'm supposed to feed but whoever they are, if I was them, I'd forget about the hydrogen bomb and start worrying over where my next meal is coming from.

The load is getting too big. By the time I get through feeding myself my family and an occasional in law drops in invariably at meal time, there's miqhty slim pickings for those twenty-three people in town waiting to be fed. I believe if I them I put in a buck- yard garden, iust to be on on the safe side. I hope you're not one of the twenty-three looking to me for There's nothing worse for the people and Harmony of a community than an under-fed newspaperman, unless it's a hungry politician, although well-fed ones have known to trouble.
