trees chief. since I been up here stud ing this thing over. it's my idear that the Forest Department ought to get this bird Burbank to grow pine trees with needles that has eyes in them and then the trees could look out for them selves, eh, chief? The kid and me called on a ranger here, MT. Rice, and he's all to the wheat cakes and lives in the swellest little log cabin and has a telephone and all. The natives here calls the rangers tree climbers. Well. all I gotta say about that Is you have to climb tree to get in reach of the prices of liveing up here. Like the bird at Washington and Pittsburg at Ash Fork charges me dime a dime for orange not as big as your fist. It was early in the a. m. and l thought maybe he wasn't a wake yet, so 1 says, That's at, the rate of S1.20 cents a dozen, Bro," and the sunofagun look right at me and says, That's perfectly true" If my tongue wasent dragging on the ground for orange I'd hit him with it. That's what you get for liveing on a main line railroad, chief, and it is lucky Charley Akers took his main line railroad slogan off the front page of the Gazette. They get 40c for gas up here and it's no use of talking You gotta have money if you wanna be rich.
 Well, chief, theys nothing more i'm portance to tell about and So I'll go down to the post office with this where MT. Williams is the post master and is brother of Mac on the Gazette.

But on the level, these forest service guys is doing great work. They have what they calls for est rangers that ranges a round the pines and feels their pulses and listens to their barks and all such stuff and puts the pines to bed at mite, because it is the idear of the forest department at Washington, D. C.. that our forests has been running a round wild long enough and that if a pine is to grow up to be a good pine with out a knot in his nut. we ought to do something to save it. That's the spirit of the age-save somebody from something That's why they have these forest rangers and they establishes lookouts on the mountains tops to look after the trees and see no harm comes to them.

The Tariff and Prices

We think the republicans should stress tariff 100 much this fall in the campaign. The people will not hear too much of protection with patience. It ing industries paralyzng competition. and to protect American workingmen against the cheaper labor of Europe a necessary measure of self defense protection wise policy for it not only enabled US to up industries, but in doing to reduce prices of commodities which the manufac suring countries of Europe had enjoyed monopoly.
 But a tariff which other purpose than to keep up prices would be particularly hateful to American consumers at this time when prices are already unreasonably high

QUESTIONS AND
 ANSWERS

O. How much of the building that goes on is for the construction of homes? A. B. K.
 buildings constructed are dwellings. but in 1919 only 15 pc rcent of the total was for this purpose.
 O. Is it wiser to specialize in one variety of potatoes or to grow several kinds? c. S. E.

Community action is recommended, as it is easier to attract buyers to a locality if carload lots of a single kind can be purchased.
 O. Do all postmasters, who have been in service for 30 years, receive a pension? D. s. E.
 A. Postmasters do not come under the Retirement Act, therefore they re- ceive no pensions at all.

RHODES SCHOLARS AID IN REPATRIATION IF RUSS WAR PRISONERS

BERLIN. July 25.-A party of young Americans all Rhodes scholars. has ar rived here from Oxferd university to assist in the Y NJ c. A. relief work in lconnection with the repatriation of Rus sian prisoners of war.
 They will be assigned to various prison camps throughout Germany where 175.000 Russians are awaiting ships to take them home. About 25,000 already have been sent from Stettin to Narva but there are so few ships avail able it may be months before the last of them can be embarked. Meantime the Russians are suffering severe priv ations
 Almost without exception the Amer ican students served during the war with the American Expeditionary forces or were associated with relief work in Europe. Their leader is Fran cis F. Miller of Lexington. Va. q grad uate of Washington and Lee university. Other members of the party are David NJ. Amacker Lake Providence. La; Joseph David Doty, Graham, Texas; William l.. Finger, Ripley, Miss; Rex B. Hersey. Huntington, W. Va; C.. A. Feather, University of New Mexico; F. Treadwell Smith and S. NJ. Keeney of Harvard university; D. F. Miller Uni versity of Denver and E. Naugle Uni versity of Texas.
 Five years confinement in prison camps has reduced the Russians to pitiable condition. Many are ill., some insane. and all undernourished, i'm properly clothed and dispirited. From the German government each receives a small monthly allowance which is in- sufficient to provide even the neces- saries of life.

This is to commend without reserva tion the efforts and enterprise of Miss Harriet Zoll, a foto specialist who came to Boston from Lewiston, Ill, expressly to urge the shoe manufacturers at tending the national exposition and style show to do away with high heels.
 The wearing of high heels is one of those freak customs set by Dame Fashion, whoever she is, and followed slavishly by nearly all women. regard less of how silly and injurious the ed human beings of either sex to walk the weight of their bodies pressing for ward on the toes.
 As this missionary of low heels in- formed the shoemakers, the strong bones of the foot are in the heel. The effect of high -heeled shoes is to over tax the small bones at the forward end of the foot to check the circulation Of blood and to cause corns, callouses and more serious disorders.
 But any one who stops to think of high heels, knows they are almost # not quite as ridiculous as the old Chi nese custom. now for the most part discarded. of binding the feet of girls The important question Is how to get away from the high-heel habit.

LITTLE HOUSE
By Edith Rockwood

By Edith RockWood I planned it and I had it built The way that it should be, And all the years I lived in 1t Were happy years for me. I planted close about it's door A wealth of tree and grass. It's windows flung a ruffled cheer To all who chanced to pass. I draped 1t and polished it And made it fairly shine. Nor did I wait to thank the fate That made it's shelter mine. I loved 1t and I lost it,
 And now my little home Must live for me eternally In memories alone. I brush it's hearth in sleeping dreams In waking dreams by day, I reach up to the closet shelf To put my hat away. And when the sand storm threatens

 And furious carouSe. I spring to close the windows or My lost loved little house.
