LIKE HOPE CROPS IN 1935
Fifty seven thousand dollars was
the sum paid recently for a crop of
potatoes, on the Yakima Indian reser
vation. The crop was grown on 120
acres of irrigated land. The buyer
not onlyj paid $57,000 for the yield but
dug the potatoes himself. The grower
got the $57,000 net for his work in
planting and cultivating including the
cost of seed. The facts were narrated
to the writer by the chairman of the
board of commissioners of Yakima
county. It is an example of what
irrigated land of the right kind will
yield.
MISTAKEN HUMILITY
Paderewski has refused to appear
in recital at Washington, D. C., and
the reason given for his refusal re
veals that one of the great musicians
of the world is subject to a prejudice
—a prejudice that one might think
would be found only in the least in
telligent of mortals. Paderewski will
not play in Washington because he
does not wish to appear as a "hired
entertainer” before the high govern
ment official who were his colleagues
when he was premier of Poland. It
is a strange quirk of thinking that puts
a Paderewski upon the level of a hired
entertainer or beneath the level of
those whose greatness is official.
The master musician seems to see
Paderewski the pianist as a creature
fallen from the high estate of Pader
ewski the Polish premier. Most of
us would rank these positions in the
opposite order.
As/ a matterf of fact there is many a
hired entertainer who ranks higher in
the scale of intrinsic human values
than the members of the audience he
entertanis. A jazzy contortionist is
perhaps lower, whatever the opinion
he has of himself or his art. A real
artist is nobody’s inferior, nor does
he lower himself by what we call en
tertammg. If Paderewski is an en
tertainer, so is Rachmaninoff, so is
Kreisler, so were Caruso and Conrad
and Anatole France and Mark Twain.
Paderewski the diplomat was the
equal of the big men he did business
with in Washington, but Paderewski
the pianist is a figure towering above
them to be remembered long after
his former colleagues are but forgot
ten names on archives covered with
dust.
Sometimes the artist is all too con
scious of his eminence, but Paderew
ski’s humility seems far more unreas
onable than an overweening pride.

recently laid across the bottom of
the Hudson river at Newburgh, N.

PARIS FINALLY
ADMITS WOMEN
TO HAVE WAISTS
PARIS, Nov. 19 (/P)—The girl of
last summer, the sprightly slip of boy
ish shapelessness, has disappeared.
Paris has banished her, admitting aft
er several seasons of denial that wo
men have waists.
Midseason models designed for
Palm Beach and southern European
wear and the forerunners of the modes
for next spring and summer place the
waist line very near normal. The
belt not only has returned but is
worn further up than it has been for
many years.
Proud owners of 22 inch waists,
however, need not yet begin to pinch
tthem in, for although belts are back
and nearly back where Eve and mo
distes placed them, they are not yet
pulled in. They are simply there; as
loose as the dress itself, more as a
decoration than for utility.
Fullness, moreover, does does spring
from the waist line in between sea
son modes, but from a point just be
low the hips.
About 10,000,000 w'ords are trans
mitted annually over the cable con
necting Canada with Australia and
New Zealad.
An immense hydro-electric plant
will be built at Louisville to utilize
the waterpower of the Ohio River.

PRODUCTION OF
WOOD PULP IS
NOT INJURIOUS
WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 19 (/P).
Presses of the country may continue
to grind out editions of daily papers
at the present rate without imperiling
the forests of the country for a num
ber of years.
Stabilized conditions in the dumber
industry throughout the country have
balanced production of wood pulp
with resultant lowering of cost and
assurance of operation “upon a con
tinuously productive basis,” the com
merce department announced today.
While the “ultimate shortage” is
still viewed with considerable appre
hension by foresters, it was stated,
the ruin of the spruce forests of New
England and Canada has been cur
tailed by relief from the Pacific North
west and the South where the pulp
industry has thrived in the past five
years.
The United States consumer annu
ally approximates $90,000,000 worth
of its timber in production of wood
pulp, the substance which is convert
ed into news print.
Relief in Sight
For many years the newspapers
have drawn upon the spruce, fir and
hemlock forests of the Northwest for
their supply of paper but in recent
years it has been apparent that at
the rate it has been going there
would soon be a shortage. The effect
of the change has been toward con
die result of
complete vaporization
It isn’t gasoline that explodes fin
the cylinder and makes power.
It’s gas-air, mixed in the carbure
tor with gasoline to form vapor.
Red Crown gasoline vaporizes
completely. It forms a homoge
neous mixture with 12 to 16 times
its volume of air. That mixture
explodes cleanly and powerfully,
leaving comparatively little car
bon residue on valves, spark plugs
and cylinder walls.
That’s why you get better mile
age out of “Red Crown”—and a
cleaner, sweeter-running engine.

ONE SHOW TONIGHT AT 8:00 SHARP
AN UNUSUAL PROGRAM
There will be no regular feature, and
in its place we will show four reels of
Alaska pictures taken by
Mr. Beech,
The Eastern sportsman, who has come
so often to hunt big game and find the
interesting places and scenes of Alaska.
There is a little of everything including
movies oi sewara, ivncnorage, c^oruova,
etc. Big game hunts, wonderful gla
cier pictures, making a very interesting
program.
WITH IT WILL BE ANOTHER OF
THOSE GREAT, “OUR GANG’' COM
EDIES, ENTITLED,
“The Buccaneers”
ALSO A ONE REEL COMEDY AND
A FINE REEL OF TOPICS.
A SHOW EVERYONE SHOULD SEE
serration, it is shown.
Gradually, according to the com
merce department, the Eastern mar
kets have received increasing quan
tities of common lumber from the
Pacific coast shipped through the
Panama canal.
In the lake states like Wisconsin,
it was added, a change has taken
place in the hemlock forests, competi
tion with Douglas fir from the Pacific
coast having shifted the market so
that much of this hemlock timber has
been diverted to the pulp mills.
The situation offers relief like Wi^
consin from the dependence upon
Canada for its timber consigned for
approximately one fourth of the pulp
and one sixth of the pulpwood used in
this country is imported from Canada.
While there has been an increase?
in the wood products imported for the*
paper mills of the country there has;
also been a steady increase in the
past five years in the production of
pulp as well as in the consumption;
of pulpwood in the Pacific coast
states, Southern states and the Laker
states.
Eyes Hurt When Reading?
If much reading makes your eyes
hurt try simple camphor, witchhazerr
etc., as mixed in Lavoptic eye wash.
The first application soothes the pain
and regular use of Lavoptic makes,
the eyes stronger so you can read
and work more.—Seward Drug Co.
