'UNITED STATES
DON’T WANT
SOVIET MONEY
f -
COPENHAGEN, Sept. 24 (by Asso
ciated Press).—Professor Lomonosoff,
who is in charge of the Russian So
viet government railway contracts,
has told the Associated Press corres
pondent “that he is disappointed be
cause the United States government
has barred him from going to Ameri
ca to arrange business contracts.”
The professor showed the correspon
dent a contract signed by the German
locomotive trust comprising all leading
German locomotive builders, including
«fthe Krupp firm, for the delivery of
2,000 German locomotives within 18
months, the amount involved being
about 5,000,000 marks.
very much regret having been un
able to place this order in America,”
the Soviet emissary said. “I have
lived there for years; I was always
a firm beliver in the mutual interests
of the two countries and had hoped
to initiate business relations between
them. The United States government
has forbidden the export to Russia of
American locomotives on the plea that
they are war material. I have orders
for 2,000 more locomotives which I
want to place in America, if only Am
erica will take the business.”
Answering a question whether the
delivery of the German locomotives
would not mean the invasion of Russia
by a small army of German techni
cians, Lomonosoff said: “No. Russia
* is fully capable of supplying her own
needs in that respect. We have all
kinds of technical experts. Since
the Polish invasion, the whole of Rus
sia's intelligentsia has whole hearted
ly joined the Soviet government for
ces of workers.”
Professor Lomonosoff said he was
going to Stockholm to inspect a num
ber of Swedish locomotives which are
ready for delivery.
Since the signing of the Russo-Swed
ish contract for the delivery of 1,000
locomotives to Russia, practically no
Scandinavian firm has done any bus
iness with Rkssia. Several firms have
even cancelled their contracts on one
plea or another. The Scandinavian
attitude is strengthened by the recent
decision, of a large American banking
firm which, first apparently eager to
* enter the Russian field, has now fin
ally decided to have no transactions
whatever with Soviet Russia.
Restrictions which have been im
posed upon the trade by the United
States and Russia, after the Bolshev
iki obtained control of the latter coun
try, were removed by the American
State Department on July 7 last. Ex
ception was made, however, in the
case of shipment of materials suscep
tible of immediate use for war pur
poses. The state department an
nounced that individual licenses
would have to be obtained before lo
comotives, railroad material, rolling
stock and cars could be exported to
Russia from the United States.
BEARS ARE FRIENDLY
AND MAKE FREQUENT
VISITS HERDER’S CABIN
MARYSVILLE, Cal., Sept. 25 (by
Associated Press).—Bears recently
caused Manuel Azavetta, sheep herder
on the Andrew Robinson ranch in
Sierra county to turn in his resigna
tion and leave recently.
One night, Azavetta reported, he
was awakened by a bear which took
a quarter of beef from a peg directly
over his head. The next day, while
he was away, a bear, probably the
same one, entered his cabin and car
ried away a ham. The following night
the bear accompanied by his mate
and several cubs visited Azavetta and
w chased him down a canyon* He did
*iiot return to the cabin but left for
another post.
ENGLISH GYPSIES ARE
REGULAR TAX DODGERS
GUILFORD, England, Sept. 25 (by
Associated Press).—A novel way of
avoiding the payment of local taxa
tion has been discovered by several
large families of gypsies in an en
campment here. They own the land
and thus are liable to house duty.
There is a regulation, however, that
if the wheels of the permanent cara
van home are turned completely round
once every year the owner is absolved
from duty. Consequently when the
tax collector calls at the camp there
is a general wheel turning. Every
caravan simultaneously moves for
ward about two yards—and the gipsies
can live duty free fop another year.

MARSON FAMILY

—An Inspiration
I
When the Marsons purchased their little 5-acre farm less than three years
ago, their capital consisted of a few hundred dollars, plus an abundance of pluck
and determination.
Today their modern poultry houses contain many hundred thoroughbred
White Leghorn hens, each producing its daily quota of the big tri-weekly ship
ment of new laid eggs that go to one of Seattle’s leading cafes. Promptly Uncle
Sam’s faithful mail carrier brings back a handsome check from the cater
er who gladly pays a premium for the superior Alderwood Manor eggs.
The picture tells the story: The modern home with its well kept lawn, veg
etable and berry garden, up-to-date poultry plant, is one of the most attractive
in the wonderful Alderwood Manor district.
Mrs. Marson keenly enjoys looking after the chickens and gathering the
eggs, while Mr. Marson continues to work at his trade, for the Marsons are
thrifty folks who believe in “team work”; combining their efforts now that they
may live a life of ease in their declining years.
Modern methods and a strict accounting system have proved to Mrs. Mar
son that each laying hen produces better than two dollars net profit each year.
(Take a pencil and figure out what the 1,500 hens that can be kept on 5
acres under the Alderwood Manor plan would produce you). Are you making
$3,000 a year ih your present position?
Are you willing to grasp a big opportunity? Does Independence, with plenty
and to spare appeal to you?
The Puget Mill Company, an old responsible concern that has played a big
part in the inidustrial development of the state of Washington, starting way
back in 1853, established the wonderful Alderwood Manor poultry district, just
outside the great city of Seattle, three years ago. Today thousands of Seattle
folks own little 5-acre farms out there, more than 350 homes and poultry plants
have already been built and are now occupied by men and women who point with
pride to their success. It is the most remarkable, most practicable 'development
of its kind in America.
The wonderful $200,000.00 Alderwoo 1 Demonstration Farm and Poultry Col
lege, where a staff of skilled experts teach (free) those who desire to follow mod
m-n methods in poultry raising, home gardening, fruit and berry culture is the
center around which the greatest poultry community in the United States is be
ing built.
Wouldn’t you like to live in the finest climate in the world where there is
never extreme heat or cold, seldom snows in the winter? Where you can view the
beautiful snow-capped mountains from porch or window and only a few minute’s
drive from beautiful lakes and shores of Puget Sound? And Seattle, the chief
seaport city of the Pacific coast, but 45 minutes from your home? Where vou
can make an independent living on 5 acres of land—with a strong company back
of you always ready to extend financial assistance.
If you are interested in knowing all about Alderwood Manor; in learning
how the Puget Mill Company will help you to own 5 acres of rich soil that will
, ! produce a bigger income with less effortthan you can ever hope to earn on the
payroll, write for the complete story of Alderwood Manor and the New Life of
the Laiid. It’s free for the asking
