ADELAIDE
DANIELS SAYS
PSYCHE YOURSELF TO SLIMNESS
For many people, overweight is largely based on a psychological
problem.
if this is true in your case, you can turn the source of your over-
weight to advantage and psyche yourself to slimness.
First, of course, you must be convinced that the time has come for
you to lose weight.
Once you have decided this, a prime requisite to your success is to
think thin. It's of the utmost importance that you should build a
thin new self-image, and keep that goal in mind.
From that point on, do everything possible to live in a psychological
atmosphere that supports your intention to achieve an ideal weight,
Don't talk about dieting. Just follow your food plan unobtrusively,
and without interference. Unless they. are also dieting, friends and
family can unintentionally hinder your programme, Once you have
your doctor's approval of your weight reducing plan, turn a deaf car
to those who warn you that you're ruining your health, or who may
test you by urging the wrong foods on you.
Keep busy, As you begin your weight reducing programme,start
a new project such as redecorating a room — or take up a lobby
such as bowling — or join an evening class on a subject that absorbs
you. You'll be surprised to find to what an extent keeping busy can
take your mind off food.
Forget yesterday. What you did yesterday cannot be helped, but .
what you do tomorrow can. If your control slips one day, take a firm
grip on it the next. And don't 150 surprised if you don't lose all the
weight you want to in one week — after all, it took more than a week
to gain it.
Avoid self-pity. Don't fall into the "Poor me, I'm on a diet, can't
go anywhere" attitude, Self-pity is one of the most dangerous
temptations to- compensate by overeating, •
When your willpower slips, be aware, Don't feel guilty, since a sense
of guilt can lead you to punish yourself unconsciously, Paradoxically,
thisself punishment can take the form of going on a real 'eating bioge.
Space out your meals so that the pleasure of eating extends over the
whole day. Spreading your approved meals throughout the day
keeps temptation away. It also prevents overeating at one big meal at
day. if you skip meals, you're so hungry whew you do eat that you
almost invariably overdo it.
Think positively. If you believe that you can achieve an ideal weight,
you will. To a large extent, the shape you're in begins in your mind,

Silhouette Day
BY NOLA LEE
Feb, 14, Valentine's Day, was
celebrated in a different manner
at C.H.S.S. this year, It was
known as Silhouette Day. The
Literary Club, producers of the
Silhouette Booklet, needed money
and therefore decided to mix
business with pleasure.
Having ordered 60 gallons of
apple cider, 30 dozen donuts and
about 30 to 35 lbs. of popcorn,
everything was set for the day—
except for popping all that corn!
Besides the food, gym 115 offered
short, feature films. Some of
these films were "Helicopter
Canada", "The Seasons",
"Sabre and Foil" and others just
as exciting.
In the gym, 150, were, for the
toe-tappers, square dancing. A
valentine cake was given as a
prize to the best set here. •
The cafeteria had been turned
into a game room, and this was the
last and most successful room.
Here a bingo game had been set
up, decks of cards were available
for all, a self-expression corner
was set up where one could
express themselves on paper, and
for music lovers, there was a
corner where you could sit and
hear the latest beats.
Cash awards were given to the
bingo winners, and the last game,
which was a full house,, was won by
Jack Nonkes who won another
Valentine cake.
All donuts were sold, all but 18
gallons of cider were consumed
and all the bags of popcorn were
sold. So, the day had proven to be a
success with the students going
home happy and stuffed,

to buy component cuts separately.
Chicken and turkey are often on
special, so watch for them.
Always buy a whole chicken
rather than individual parts. You
will save a few cents per pound.
Good buys in the fish line are
cod, haddock, and canned pink
salmon. Use frozen fish as it is
usually less expensive than fresh
fish.
Buy unbre.aded filletsand bread
them yourself.
In recipes calling for tuna,
substitute the less expensive
canned mackerel if it is available
in your store.
DAIRY PRODUCTS
Using skim milk is an obvious
saving. It should always be used
for cooking. Some people find the
taste objectionable, so you can
mix a quart of fresh milk with a
quart of powdered milk. Buy skim
milk powder in bulk for better
savings. Also buy nonadvertised
brands.
Powdered milk and ice water
can be beaten into a whipped
cream substitute that is low in
calories and costs approxim'ately
three cents per cup.
Buttermilk, allowed to thicken,
can he used in place of sour
cream,
Save money on cheese by buying
a block and slicing at home. You
can keep the cheese fresh by
wrapping it in a cloth that has been
dampened with vinegar.
Medium eggs are often a better
buy than large and never buy
Grade A eggs for scrambling,
general cooking and baking.
Use fortified margarine rather
than butter.
Buy ice milk instead of ice
cream. It costs less and has fewer
calories.
FRUITS AND VEGETABLES
Buy locally grown fresh fruits
and vegetables. Out-of-season
products are always more
expensive.
Frozen vegetables bought in
large plastic bags cost less per
serving than 9 or 10 ounce
packages. The best way, however,
is to freeze your own vegetables.
Use a vegetable peeler. It saves
time and the valuable nutrients
found right under the skin.
Dried fruits have lost most of
their vitamins and, except for
prunes and raisins, are quite
expensive,
BREADS AND CEREALS
Look for the words "enriched"
or • 'whole grain" as these are the
best buys.
Buy day-old bread and freeze it.
Substitute enriched all-purpose
flour for cake flour. It costs less
and has more nutrients.
Avoid pre-cooked rice. You are
paying for the convenience. The
taste is poor and the food value is
lower,
Hot cereals cost less per
serving than ready-to-oat
cereals. Avoid serving-site
boxes of ready-to-eat cereals.
The flavor of meat may be
extended with macaroni,
spaghetti, rice or oatmeal.

With low prices for market
hogs in relation to cost of
production, every method of
lowering, costs is being examined
today. Feed accounts for 65 to 75
per cent of the cost of swine
production, so it must be looked at
closely. Unfortunately, there is
no magic formula to use when
considering on-farm feed
preparation versus purchased
feed. Conditions vary. In general,
it will not likely be economical to
instal complete feed processing
equipment when less than 100
tones of complete feed are
processed per' year. However,
there may be exceptions.
The following factors should be
considered:
Type of equipment: Grinders,
mixers, scales, bins, augers, etc.
Usually the basal grain is ground
and mixed with supplements
containing proteins, minerals and
vitamins, so a combination of
grinding and mixing equipment is
required, individually fed sows
may be hand fed, the grain
topdressed with the appropriate
amount of supplement. The same
may apply to floor feeding of pigs
in groups, although research
information is lacking.
Rolled barley or corn is as good
as the same grain in ground form,
Rolling equipment has lower
power requirements, per ton of
feed processed, than hammer
mills or grinders.
Cost of equipment: The cost of
owning equipment (initial cost,
depreciation, interest, space and
storage( AS WELL AS
OPERATING COSTS (repairs,
power, labor) must be
considered. Frequently these
factors are omitted in calculating
costs. Can the same amount of
capital be invested in another
facet of the operation and return
more on the investment?
Cost of ingredients: Unless one
is acquainted with types of
feedstuffs, their nutritional value
and their sources and prices, any
cost advantage of on-farm feed
processing may be lost through
unwise purchases. Feed
manufacturers can perform an
boxes. Audrey `Thompson, arid
Betty Holley served Innen,

We are sorry to report that
economical service to livestock
feeders through large hulk
purchases and bulk handling. In
order to be competitive, the
livestock feeder must do
likewise, either by feeding
sufficient quantities or combining
purchases with that of neighbors.
Adequate supplementation of
swine diets with minerals and
vitamins should not cost more
than approximately $6 per ton of
complete feed. Premixes are
available, from reliable feed
manufacturers.
Adequate economical diets can
be prepared using basal grains
(corn, barley, wheat), protein
supplement (soybean meal), and
vitamin-trace mineral premixes.
Substitutions may be made if they
are nutritionally and
economically sound. Do not
become fascinated with complex
mixtures and secret ingredients.
Cost comparisons should be
based on cost per ton of processed
feed of equivalent nutritional
value at the farm, whether it is
pui-chased or made on the farm.'
Homegrown feed must be priced
at market value at the farm.
Comparisons must be made on
each individual set of
circumstances, and not based on
theory.
Management and labor: The
livestock feeder should spend his
efforts on the facets of his
operation which he can do best and
the Ones which return the most
money. This may, or may not, be
on-farm preparation of feed. He
must be acquainted with sources,
nutritional value, and cost of
ingredients if he is to make wise
purchases. This requires time
and planning.
When you purchase prepared
feed from a reliable supplier you
are paying for
(a) nutritional know-how
(b) labor
(C) equipment
(d) ingredients
(e) capital,
Can you supply these at lower
cost (greater profit) by on-farm

Outbreaks of Newcastle
disease in poultry flocks in
southwestern Ontario have
caused much concern in recent
months. Dr. D.A, Stevenson,
Veterinary Services Laboratory,
Ontario Department of
Agriculture and Food, Ridgetown,
gave some details on the disease
at the recent Farmers Week at
Ridgetown College of
Agricultural Technology.
The severity of this condition
was not truly appreciated by
poultrymen in Kent County and
surrounding area until July 1971,
says Dr. Stevenson. It was then
that Newcastle disease was
diagnosed in the county for the
first time in over twenty years.
After two and a half months of
severe losses it appeared that the
condition ha'd been brought under
control and once more eliminated
from the area.
In late Nov. 1971 a new focus of
infection appeared in Lambton
County. At the present time there
appear to be scattered outbreaks
of the condition throughout
southwestern Ontario.
The disease usually appears
suddenly and spreads quickly
through fully susceptible flocks.
The incubation period following
natural exposure varies from two
to 15 days. The earliest signs of
the disease are respiratory in
nature with gasping being the
most obvious and consistent sign,
Depression and impaired appetite
generally accompany the
respiratory signs. Nervous
signs, especially in young chicks,
appear about two to five days after
the respiratory signs begin. The
nervous signs commonly
observed are paralysis of
extremities, head shaking, neck
twisting, and circling. In laying
flocks, egg production may drop
returned to 1.4911 d9n from
Barbados on Monday morning and
left by car for Florida for their
holidays.
Miss Wendy Caldwell, a student
at Toronto Western Hospital,
spent the weekend with her
parents, Mr. and Mrs, Leonard
Miss Barbara Burns of St.
Joseph's hospital, London, spent
the weekend with her parents, Mr.
and Mrs, Bob Burns.
Mrs. Evelyn flunking returned
home Feb, 12 from Clinton Public,
Hospital, having spent the past
three weeks there.
Mr. and Mrs, R.N. Alexander
returned home Monday, Feb. 7
after holidaying the past month in
Florida at Key West Point and
New Smyrna Beach.
rapidly or stop completely-within
five days. If the flock survives,
the production usually returns
within six weeks to what it was
before the outbreak appeared.
Turkeys appear to be more
resistant than chickens to
Newcastle disease. In laying
turkeys, the primary sign
observed is one of sudden loss of
production with little increase in
mortality. In young poults (around
three weeks old) mortality may be
quite severe, with depression,
tack of appetite, and nervous
signs predominating. There is not
the same respiratory problems
as with chickens.
A proper vaccination program
appears to be the only method of
avoiding Newcastle disease in a
flock. All flocks should be
vaccinated at least three times
before they are twenty weeks old
and then every four months
thereafter. Most vaccination
programs recommend an initial
vaccination for Newcastle
disease at eight to ten days of age,
a booster vaccination at four to
six weeks of age, a second booster
vaccination every four months
thereafter.
All cases of Newcastle disease
diagnosed in the recent outbreak
have occurred in flocks which did
not receive a complete
vaccination program, said Dr.
Stevenson. • • — •

An average Canadian family
spends 20 per cent of its net
income on food. Of every food
dollar, 33 cents goes for meat, 20
cents fon dai ny procincts , 20 ,cents
for fruithand vegetables, and 27
cents for breads and cereals,
Here are a few ideas to help you
put this 20 per cent of your net
income to the best use:
MEATS
Learn the low-cost cuts of
meat. Hamburger is not the only
one. Others include blade roasts,
pork shoulder, sausage and pork
liver,
Buy shoulder chops of lamb or
pork rather than loin or rib chops.
Round steak has little or no
waste and is almost always a good
buy.
It is often more economical to

it divided for several meals than
