MONROE AoMlRes FARMERS

MONTESANO, May 27.-Agricultur-
list Monroe finds many things to COM
mend in his visits to the various farm
ing sections of the county. Yester-
day it was the application Of power
to many uses on the general and dairy
farm of o. M. Gordon, whose place is
two miles the other side of Elma.
Mr.. Gordon has IN horsepower
gasoline engine, and has 1t located in
q small building near the house. It
is used for churning, running the
washing machine, pumping, grinding,
feed and many other things.
I'm these days Of cheap power" says
Mr.. Monroe. 1T is surprising the
amount of labor and time that may be
saved on ranch at q very small
cost in money. Mr. Gordon has shown
considerable skill and ingenuity in the
arrangement of his engine and ma.
chinery, but not more than others may
do, and it means much on farm to
have things so arranged"

ton made by Empey. The cleanup
will start a week from Monday, tho
first ward being visited by the gar.
bage wagons to be put on by the
street department, en- the first day.
the second ward Tuesday, and SO Oh
until the last of the six wards shall
have been cleaned up, Saturday.
Pista broke the silence he has i'm
mutually preserved since his induction
az councilman from the first ward, to
remark that streets in South Aberdeen
had not been swept since they first
were laid down. Bowes declared that
the garbage wagon cannot handle all
the dshris that citizens are expected
to sweep from their yards and houses.
1T was finally decided to leave the
manner of handling the cleanup day
in the hands Of the health commit
tee and street department, it being
the sense OF the council that citizens
should not be compelled to pay for
the hauling Of garbage.

worked out plan on the part of Ger
mans to bride enough members of con-
gress to insure the enactment of legis-
lation prohibiting the exports of war
supplies for the allies is under inves

both here and in Washington. That an
American college graduate was hired
at $1,000 a week to undertake the
work and that he had unlimited funds
at his disposal, spending almost ST.

facts said now to be in the possession

The Singing of Carols

The custom of singing carols is still
maintained in Italy-indeed, on the
continent caroling at Christmas is al
most universal-and particularly in
Rome. where, during the season Of Ad-
vent. Pifferari may be seen and heard
performing their novenaS.
These pilgrims, who, by the way, are
shepherds from the Calabrian noun
tains. annually flock to Rome at this
season. Their picturesque costume is
thus described: ION their heads they
wear conical felt hats, adorned with a
frayed peacock's feather or faded
band of red cords and tassels. Their
bodies are clad in red waistcoats. blue
jackets and small clothes of skin or
yellowish homespun cloth. Skin san
dals are bound to their feet with cords
that interlace each other up the leg as
far as the knee. and over all is worn q
long brown or blue cloak. with q short
cape buckled closely round the neck
Sometimes. but rarely. this cloak is of
a deep red with scalloped cape"
