6 The Health Bulletin February, 1930 man and boys were put to bring up apples and peaches, and about three 100 lb. sacks were filled with rich dried apples and peaches, and stored in a north room. Both kinds of potatoes were stored in the cellar for winter use. There were two kinds of cabbage raised in the garden, a summer and late kind. The summei' variety was made into kraut; the late ones were turned over on their sides in October and a few spades of dirt put over them to tender up. Then in December, when the hogs were killed, we dug out some of the tender cabbage, cooked with a piece of pork, and we had a dish that couldn't be beat. Corn was cracked at a nearby water mill (that's still running) to make hominy. TTiat was a splendid dish to serve with the meats in winter. Grain was raised on our farm for bread and feed. With plenty of chickens for "Sunday dinners," eggs for breakfast, and for pudding and cakes it required very little money to live then. Nothing was bought from the store except sugar and coffee and things that could not be raised on the farm. About four barns of tobacco were raised for the money crop. When the winter winds began to blow what consolation it was to have all kinds of food stored away, and at night run from a big log fire and crawl between two home-made blankets and sleep the sleep that doesn't bring indigestion and tired muscles. Any healthy man can have this supply of food today just as it was made 40 years ago if he will plan and plan, and it's no "killing" job to do it." THE FALSE VOICE 99 In a copyrighted syndicated article, which came to our desk sometime ago, by Dr. Bruce Barton, the author tells one of the finest little stories we have seen in many a moon. The idea of the false voice being heeded only by the abnormal or subnormal is so appropriate, when we think of the success of some of the nefarious so-called medicines which are advertised and sold so successfully to the sick and distressed, we cannot refrain from quoting Dr. Barton's observations. All of us know individuals who live normal, satisfactory lives, just like their neighbors and friends, but when overtaken by illness or adversity of various kinds, their judgment becomes warped, and they seem to be unable to discriminate between the genuine and the false, especially in the realm of healing. Such people often are noted for their balanced judgment and for their discriminating powers, but when ill, from various chronic ailments which cannot pos- sibly yield to scientific treatment, they become impatient and distressed, and frequently are exploited to the limit of their purse by fakers of various stripes.
