BE A FRIEND OF THE LAND
. By
Jonathan Forman, M, D., Vice President
FRIENDS OF THE LAND
Columbus 1, Ohio
We in Friends of the Land are
trying to make all of our people
see that prosperity depends upon
low-cost production on the farms
in their trading area of food, fiber,
and timber of the finest quality, It
is not scarcity that we city people
want but an abundance of food
and fiber at a price we can afford
to pay, but it also must be one
which represents a good profit to
the farmer. Only then can he
maintain the fertility of his soil
and buy the goods and services
which we city folks have to offer,
In the past, we have asked the
farmer to mine his soil of its fer
tility rather than to manage his
farm so that each year it will pro
duce more and better products,
It ought to be apparent that the
farrrer who raises 80 bushels of
cori: to the acre has three times
Crdinary Table Salt Plays An
imporfant Part In The Body
By EDWIN P. JOEKDAN, M. D,
Written for NEA Service
For the normal person table salt
or sodium chloride is necessary for
for satisfactory functioning of the
body. The salt is kept in a con
stant proportion in the blood and
tissues; the amount of salt present
in food or added in cooking or on
the table is usually just about
enough to make up for that which
is lost.
In certain diseases, however, the
amount of salt taken into the body
has to be limited. Too much salt
either has a bad effect on the dis
eased organs or holds an excessive
amount of water in the tissues of
the body thus causing the accum

the cost in labor, seed, taxes, and
capital investment as does the
‘man who raises 90 bushels. It
should be apparent to everyone,
as Louis Bromfield, vice-president
of Friends of the Land, likes to
point out, “You can’t sell fifteen
dollar hats to the farmer or his
wife unless his land will raise fif
teen dollar hats,” nor can the phy
sician or dentist get an adequate
living from his services unless the
land is rich enough to meet his
bills. The distribution of doctors
is an economic one.
Friends of the land is emphasiz
ing all over this nation by every
means of communication at its
disposal that prosperity comes
from the ground and rises upward
as the productivity of the soil in
creases,
ulation of fluid in the legs or ab
domen.
Under such cjrcumstances the
excess salt is not eliminated nor
mally but stays in the tsisues; in
order to maintain a constant bal
ance between the sodium chloride
and water in the tissues, excess
water is also retained.
For this reason the physician
may reduce the salt in the diet
of persons with certain kinds of
heart disease, kidney disease or
diseases of the blood vessels. There
are some other conditions, like Ad
dison’s disease, in which the use
of sodium chloride is also disturb
ed so that the intake has to be
strictly regulated,
More body sodium chloride is
lost than is taken in when there is
heavy perspiration for a prolonged
period of time. This occurs in cer
tain industrial eccupations, in hot
weather and when there is heavy
physical exertion.
‘ Making Up Loss
Salt tablets or the addition of
small amounts of sodium chloride
to the drinking water may be used
to replace an excessive loss of so
dium chloride of this type. In some
industries workers are encouraged
to take a salt tablet with each
drink of water though this should
not be done by those who have
some of the disorders previously
mentioned, .
A great deal of table salt now
has a little iodine mixed in. This
iodized salt has done a great deal
to reduce the frequency of goiter
and extensive studies have not re
vealed any harmful effects.

Baker Round-Up
Statement Is
Issued Saturday
Headquarters of C., O. Baker
yesterday issued the following
statement containing a round-up
of the" candidate’s activities last
week:
“Gubernatorial Candidate C. O.
(Fat) Baker cut down into South
Georgia this week, making three
to five speeches a day, trying to
convince every person his voice
’could reach that he has got a
chance to win the June 28 election.
~ “The opposition can't find any
thing on Fat Baker so they say
‘He's ain’t got a chance’ and that’s
about the only thing Thompson
and Talmadge agree on,’ the
Clarke county legislator declared
in Jefferson Monday night.
“He also took a shot at Gov. Tal
madge, declaring that Georgia will
have Talmadge and his machine
for the next 30 years if he is re
elected. “By that time his son
ought to be old enough to run
for governor and we’ll have a Tal
madge dynasty in Georgia,” Baker
predicted.
“Re-elect the present adminis
tration,” he said, in Griffin Ved
nesday night, ‘and they'll have a
machine in Georgia that will make
the Pendergrast machine of Kan
sas City look like mere peanuts’.
“As he hit Canton, Jackson For
syth, and Bainbridge, the Athens
lawyer continued his appeal for
votes from the people who are
‘dissatisfied with what they've
got’ and ‘don’t want Thompson..
He asserted that his chances for
election lie in the hands of the
common people of Georgia.
~ ‘The Lord knows the politicians
of the state aren’t for me,’ he said.
“Making 22 speeches this week,
Baker reached deep into South
west Georgia, speaking in Bain
bridge Friday might. aSturday he
jumped back up to Albany.
“Next week he will cut across
South Georgia, making 21 speech
es the last week of his stumping
tour. He ends his seven week
swing through the state Saturday
night, June 24, in Jonesboro, Clay
ton county, with a speech at 8
p. m.
“Baker is making plans for a
final campaign rally to be held in
his home town of Athens just be
fore the election June 28.
“Baker’s speaking schedule for
the week of June 19-24:
“Monday: Sylvester, 11 a. m.;
iAshburn, 4 p. m.; Nashville, 8 p.
m.
| “Tuesday: Pearson, 11 a. m.;
‘Lakeland, 4 p. m.; Homerville, 8

“Wednesday: Polkston, 11 a. m.;
Woodbine, 4 p. m.; Brunswick, 8
p. m.
“Thursday: Rearing, 11 a. m.;
Hinesville, 2 p. m.; Ludowigi, 4
p. m.; Matying, 8 p. m. :
