Hard to ‘Get Rich Quick 9 At Home, Says magazine American housewives are being victimized to the tune of several million dollars a year by phony make-money-at-home schemes, according to Changing Times, the Kiplinger magazine. The editors of the magazine investigated 75 such schemes, and discovered that “most presented improbable pictures of great riches for little work”. These “business opportunities”, say the editors, “range from raising bullfrogs, minks and pheasants to selling hosiery, perfume, and pictures made from feathers. Nearly all present pitfalls. They reek of optimism and soft-pedal the hard

work involved in making the schemes pay”. “Some of these plans might, with a lot of hard work, actually pay off. Some are absolutely impossible schemes. Some offer only trite, poorly written self-help material”. As examples of some of these schemes, the magazine offers these: Shut-ins, housewives and others answer ads for “home mail addressing”. “But”, say the editors, “most of these schemes work on what is a chain letter scheme. The only way to get your money back is to induce other victims to fall into the same trap”. “One ad merely stated that for a dollar the company would send information on job opportunities in the Pacific Northwest. For a dollar what came back in the mail was a couple of half pages from a newspaper classified section. Not even a letter accompanied the clipp-i ings”. “Mushroom raising, according tOj one company, is extremely simple, j The company’s plants, the litera-j ture reads, can be grown by any amateur just about anywhere in j a spare room, attic or cellar, in- 1 doors or outdoors, under usual conditions”. “The Federal Trade Commission, in a complaint charging the company with false and misleading advertising, says that a great deal of horticultural ability is needed to grow mushrooms, that their disagreeable odor rules out growing them in a spare room, that the ‘usual’ conditions referred to are really a controlled temperature of 65 degrees. The complaint also alleges that although the advertising implies the firm will purchase dried and fresh mushrooms grown anywhere in the United States, it will not buy fresh mushrooms raised beyond a 150-mile radius. The firm has denied the allegations and the case has not been finally decided”. “A 15-page mimeographed booklet, purchased for $2 on the promise that it would show a simple way to attain ‘wealth and power’, turned out to be a treatise more or less on the theme that hard work con-

quers all”. The editors say that “home businesses are profitable only through hard work and common sense. Only a few firms warn that selling their merchandise could only supplement your income. Despite the best efforts of better business bureaus all over the country, the Post Office Department and the Federal Trade Commission, the phonies and the near-phonies continue to flourish”. “Bear in mind,” say the editors, “that there are legitimate enterprises making offers in advertisements. Not qll are gyps”. They give these rules to remember in trying to avoid the phonies: “Ignore help-wanted ads that “demand money no honest business charges a fee for employing you. Don’t buy products for resale unless you are sent a free sample. Be prepared to work hard and discount the promises of big money. Ask your better business bureau whether it has a line on a particular company. If you send your money and are dissatisfied .demand a refund and keep on demanding. However, if you do encounter fraud, inform your postmaster”. “That will protect others from being snared in a similar way”.

CROP To Help Send 141 Million Pounds Overseas j American Protestant and East-! ern Orthodox denominations work-i ing together thru Church World; Service and through CROP, expect to distribute a total of 141,774,425 pounds of US Government surplus foods free to needy persons over--1 seas during 1955, it was announced by R. Norris Wilson, executive I director of Church World Service. 40 MILE TRAIN I I This vast amount of foodstuffs, loaded in boxcars it would make a i tram more than 40 miles long~is i scheduled to go to hungry, homeII es sand destitute people in 29 j countries in Europe, Asia, Africa, ‘ and South America. 1 j Total value of the shipments for ! 1955, a large portion of which al-, iready has gone forward, is j : $49,535,028. Cost of the Church , World Service surplus shipment i operation is estimated at approximately $1,000,000, Mr. Wilson said. : These funds will be provided by denominational and individual I church contributions in response to the “Share Surplus” appeal : and by contributions to CROP’S ! community campaigns in 22 states. 1 AID DISTRIBUTION At national CROP headquarters in Elkhart, National Director Albert W. Farmer added to Mr. Wilson’s announcement the statement that about a quarter of expected gifts to CROP in 1955 will be applied toward meeting the CWS goal of surplus distribution overseas. This may, he said, cover half of the expected distribution cost. The S-O-S appeal, a year-round i endeavor begun last summer by j the churches, has special impetus I during the Thanksgiving period! : when thousands of individual and i j community church observances are held in its behalf in the atmos-j ; phere of the traditional Thanks-, . giving spirit of sharing, in gratii tude for our abundance, with those i less fortunate than ourselves. SEEK DONATIONS CROP seeks donations of export- | able staple foodstuff for direct ! shipment overseas and distribution ! through church channels. As not I all CROP gifts are suitable for I export, conversion into needed! j commodities is undertaken when- 1 ; ever necessary Since Congress 1 made surplus available last year, j ! same CROP gifts were converted! to help establish and maintain sur- | plus distribution channels and facilities. i

Heavy straw residues from wheat or oats can be detrimental to the stand of interseeded alfalfa or clovers, advise agronomists at Purdue. To aid legume growth,; stubble should be clipped after combining and aill straw removed. ! However, stubble with a sweet i clover stand should not be clipped I or the legume may be killed. Farmers, who must leave straw in the field, will find that clipping the stuibble followed by cultipacking the straw residue is the next best method of handling.

Otto Robison was called to the home of his sister, Mrs. 110 James at Marcellus, Mich., Sunday, due to the serious condition of their father, O. D.

Donna Dorsett was bridesmaid at the Holtzinger and Losee wedding, mentioned in this column last week. Mrs. Alma Yoder and several friends left Aug. 1 on a vacation trip to Florida.

White snakeroot is a white-flower-ed plant that thrives only in shaded areas, and can be fatal to livestock.

RIGHT WILL OUT The old adage, “Crime does not pay” has proved itself again. Two young bandits, armed with toy pistols, successfully scooped up $11,452 in cash in a dawn burglary of a large New York department store. But, in an attempted getaway, they become so confused in the block-long store’s maze of showcases that they got panicky and gave themselves up to a watchman.
