 According te members of the party the lake which is fed by perpetual snows and has no outlet contained hundreds of monster trout, hundreds at least three feet in length being clearly seen through the crystal clear waters. Az the lake has no outlet, the ystery of the origin of these trout is row agitating California scientists.

in an entirely satisfactory manner is proved by the excellent service main tained as far north as Bakersfield and as far south as San Diego.
 From small beginning the trans fer company, which has the contract for transporting the gas will soon have a fleet of five trucks almost constant ly in operation, and in all probability this number will be augmented as the ramifications of the fumigating busi- ness increase.
 To increase the efficiency of it's long distance hauling of the gas, the Azuza Transfer Company recently replaced the solid tires on it's two-ton trucks with giant United States hobby cord tires.
 This company is operating over a wide range of territory and it is to its interest to cover as much ground as possible and at the same time hold down overhead and truck depreciation. The company was satisfied that giant pneumatics were the answer and un- derstand they are thoroughly con- vinced their decision was the correct one. The giant pneumatic is the solu- tion of the long haul problem.
 "On hobby cord giant pneumatics, we cover just twice as much ground as we did on solids. We secure as high as fifteen to seventeen miles to the gall lon. A two-ton truck now makes the round trip to San Diego and vicinity in about seventeen hours. With solids ft required almost twice as long. The big tires are easier on the chassis and on the goods that are hauled. The initial cost is more but the saving eff fected and the increased earning ca pacity of the truck far outweigh that" said an official of the transfer com pany.

 And 1t Is matter of pride that Hud- son selected us. It takes us into the association of the type of automobile merchants who lead. It is a great company's recognition of our fitness to serve you.
 Today the Hudson Super-Six leads all motordom in endurance and per- formance. Its exclusive type motor, minimizing friction and vibration as it does, gives the Super-Six reserve energy never called for in ordinary service.
 IT IS THE PATTERN CAR In style and design the Hudson Su- per-Six has long been the pattern car. Its lines are always years in advance. What is the current model this year was the Hudson model of year or more ago.

For years we, as we'll as you, no doubt, have admired the achieve ments of the Hudson Super-Six. We were first attracted to this world-fa- nous fine car by its speedway rec ords then by what owners told us of their cars.
 A car that could win so many victor ies must be superior, we thought. Then came the trans-continental tour. A Hudson touring car crossed and recrossed the continent in 10 days and 21 hours record for time each day never equalled.
 AS YOU MUST HAVE FELT Our admiration for the Super-Six grew greater still when we read of its climb to the top of Pike's Peak lead ing twenty other specially built cars. And then the praise we heard on every side about the Super-Six de- termined us to get the Hudson fran chise for this territory. 1t was not easy.
 Hudson dealers must conform to certain high standards. Everywhere they must be the leading dealers with the largest sense of responsibility and aggressiveness. Hudson dealers have the finest stores. They give the best

Getting at the Truth.

America press representatives finally have
succeeded in prying the LID of the French cen
sorship. During the war newspapers were to
be commended Tor what they didn't print as
well Tor Jne news they handled. The vol
untary censorship was admirably observed
and published information Of value TO the en-
envy was reduced to q minimum
It is different now. Everybody wants to
know what IS going on and everybody has a
right 70 know. The censor has mighty little
place IN the general scheme of things and the
press is entitled to full credit for the fight it is
making against old-worId conservatism and
star chamber methods
The French and the English and even some
Americans may not have known it, but when
the armistice was signed the JOB of making the
world safe for democracy was transferred
mainly 20 the newspapers.

EngIand's Unrest.

America will watch with interest labor de-
veLopments in England. Wholesale strikes
there probably will help to create agitation
elsewhere, especially If the strikers better their
conditions or bring about changes that they
consider desirable.
Much Of the trouble in England is simply
a reaction from the long years of grinding toll
that all classes had TO submit to or see their
country overwhelmed Those who quit work
often are not clear as to why they do so. Where
they formulate a demand and it is granted
sometimes they mediately strike again.
There is a demand in some quarters for
the general adoption of a six-hour day. Not a
few advocate government ownership of trans
portatiOn facilities and some OF the industries,

to how his particular remedy will work out

Keeping the Farmer Prosperous

There has been a big growth in the bust
ness Of growing swine in the United States in
the last two years. Jan. l of this year it is
estimated that there were more than 10000, 900
nead in this country, valued at more than
$500, 100000. The price estimate, it is pre-
sumed. is based upon prevailing prices which
are arbitrarily set by government agencies.
The food administration is asking congress
for appropriation Of and One-quarter
billions 70 buy the remainder of the 1918 crop
and The 1919 crop OF wheat at the base price
OF 1926 per bushel, which was promised the
grower, and sell it for what it can get Uncle
Sam may and probably will lose some money
in the transa ction. The amount of money asked
for indicates what the lood administration be-
lieves should be the outside estimate. Con
gress is alarmed. and not withOut/reason.
The war has brought great prosperity to
the farmer. 1t increased the value of every
thing he owned when it began and the govern
ment took extraordinary pains to see that he
had every possible incentive for maximum pro
auction He has benefited greatly by price
fixing, which helped to maintain a level prac-
tically double that which he has previously
realized in times Of greatest prosperity under
peace conditions. As matters now stand he is
in fair way to continue his period Of extra
action has set in for those engaged in other
lines Of endeavOr.
There is a disposition in congress now to
try to talk the farmer out Of the notion OF ex-
acting all Of MS pound of flesh.

Meeting Commercial Competition.

Great Britain has placed an embargo upon
a great variety of manufactured goods, effec-
tive at once, with a view of protecting its home
manufactures in the trying period that is at
hand. There is nothing unusual in the pro-
cedure, especially under existing circum-
stances. Other nations, they get around to
the matter, will take similar steps in accord
ance with their economic needs. There is going
to be the keenest kind of competition for the
trade of the world to build up shattered
tional fortunes. Interests of the United States
and England will clash at many points. That
is inevitable. We also shall be thrown into
direct competition with France, Italy and the
other allies and the neutrals, well as with
the enemy nations.
The United States should lose no further
time preparing to meet the situation with such
measures as the occasion demands. There
should be permanent trade commission TO
deal with these problems and it should be as
far removed from political influence as it is
possible to make it
