Judgment of Odors
That persons vary greatly in
their judgment of odors is shown
in a survey in which of 3,000 in
dividuals tested for their reactions
upon smelling freesias, 19 per cent
said that this sweet-scented flower
had no odor, 65 per cent said it
had a weak or medium odor and
16 per cent said it had a very
strong odor, reports Collier’s. Of
those persons who noticed the fra
grance, 86 per cent found it pleas
^ant and 14 per cent unpleasant.

May Warn of Disordered
Kidney Action
Modern life with Its hurry and worry.
Irregular habits, improper eating ana
s, drinking—its risk of exposure and infeo
tion—throws heavy strain on the work
of the kidneys. They are apt to become
i over-taxed and fail to filter excess acid
and other impurities from the life-giving
blood.
You may suffer nagging backache,
headache, dizziness, getting up eights,
leg pains, swelling—feel constantly
tired, nervous, all worn out. Other signs
of kidney or bladder disorder are lome
i, times burning, scanty or too frequent
urination.

. Horses Still Go to War
Herds of wild horses rounded up from the open ranges of
frontier Australia are being tamed and trained for military
work by American army forces there. Despite the ascend
ency of mechanization in warfare the horse still has a place
at the battle zones because of his mobility over difficult ter
rain. Most of the wild Australian broncos have never seen a
human, and must be transformed from nervous, galloping,
man-fearing beasts into steady, dependable, domesticated
horses. This is accomplished by a process formerly known
as “breaking” which American soldiers prefer to call
“gentling,” as the army horse is trained as gently and
humanely as possible so that he loses all fear of mankind.
Stampeding hordes of wild horses are guided into the swirling
water of a stream by Australian horsemen.
This is what usually happens the first time an attempt is made
to saddle one of the broncos.
Twrr~wini»iiiiiin[iniriiin m rrw imihi n iimw—i————mu iwi——n
After he becomes accus
tomed to the nearness of
man, the horse is run into a
corral, blindfolded and tied,
as a saddle is placed on his
back for the first time. When
released he usually tries to
buck the saddle off. During
the last two weeks of the
horse’s basic training, bron-.
co busters ride him until he
no longer executes wild gy
rations when something is
placed on his back.
Above: Saddled for the first
time, he races around the corral,
bucking, fighting and squealing.
Right: This is how they got the
saddle on. Below: Calm and
ready for duty, a trained horse
stands loaded.
Occasionally a fitly is born among the
wild Australian horses. Here is one
which has become a pet of the regiment.
She is being treated for a slight cold by
Pvt. J. Tuejer of Fort Worth, Texas.
Horses such as are trained in Aus
tralia will suim rivers and at night
they are an advantage over motorized
equipment because they can maneuver
without lights. The horse is quiet. No
other animal can, in an equal measure,
endure extreme temperature changes.

Farmer* Can Raise
Spices Now Imported
Western Hemisphere Can
Supply All Needs
Every spice, seed and herb that
the United States has been accus
tomed to importing from the Orient
can be grown successfully in the
Western hemisphere, either In North
or South Arrferica, believes John A.
Sokol, president of a chemical com
pany bearing his name. In an ad
dress before the annual Chemurgic
conference recently held in Chicago,
he divided the plant products into
two groups, according to the climat
ic conditions under which they grow.
First, he said, is the temperate
zone, which covers central Europe,
the Mediterranean area, Russia,
northern India, and northern China.
The second zone would comprise the
tropics, semi-tropics, and particu
larly the East Indies close to the
equatorial area.
From the temperate zone we have
been Importing herbs, such as sage,
marjoram, thyme, savory, rose
mary, sweet basil, oregano, laurel
leaves, saffron, red peppers (pap
rika), and many crude drugs.
From the tropical zone we have
been importing peppers, cloves, all
spice, ginger, cinnamon, cassia,
nutmeg, mace, turmeric, etc.
The items in the first category,
namely those grown in the temper
ate zone, can all be grown in some
part of the United States, and the
items from the tropical zone could
be grown in some of our possessions
and also in Central and South Amer
ica. All of the items under spices
for seasoning and condiments could
be grown In the Western hemi
sphere.
That these particular items, he
said, could be grown in the United
States has been demonstrated.
Other seeds, such as poppy, cara
way, dill, coriander, celery, fennel,
and anise, have been grown in the
United States te some extent. None
of these Items are available from
Europe now and with the present
difficulties of obtaining these seeds
from India, China and other foreign
countries, there are prospects that
the growers would find these profit
able for the next couple of years at
least, Mr. Sokol thinks.
The herbs which have been grown
and cultivated here are sage, mar
joram, and basil, and an effort is
being made to increase their produc
tion in this country.
All of the products grown in the
United States have been found to be
of very good quality and most of
them compare very favorably to
the products imported from abroad.
Also with the American ingenuity
to adapt special methods of plant
ing, cultivating and harvesting,
much of the low labor cost in foreign
countries could be overcome.
Some tf the outstanding products
which have been grown successfully
In the United States are mustard
seed, grown In Montana and Califor
nia, paprika (the sweet grade),
grown in California, Louisiana and
South Carolina, and sage, mar
joram, thyme and basil, grown
in practically every state of the
United States.
Mr. Sokol continued that he was
not giving any figures of the quanti
ties' grown, but that he felt assured
that with the proper effort and co
operation of the various agencies,
American housewives and the food
industry can be fully supplied with
many of the spice seasonings from
products grown in the United States,
the tropical possessions, and some
of the South American countries.
