READY TO SERVE.

Do you appreciate what a ready
to serve organization means?
1t usually represents the work, ex-
perience and saving of years OF one
or more individuals.
Take a newspaper as an illustra-
ton. Too often its value to a town
IS underestimated by the leading
citizens Of the community.
I Yet the deadest town in the world
Is the one without a newspaper.
The newspaper is called upon to
support every public movement free
OF charge. 1t must help the
church, it must lead the way for
civic Improvements and it must pio-
ineer for all manner of new develop
hent enterprises.
When the good work has been
done the leading citizens" of the
community sit back with a smile Of
satisfaction and too often take credit
for The work which would have been
impossible without a regularly iss-
ued daily or weekly newspaper.
Good times and bad, the paper
must come out. Merchants threat
en- to discontinue Advertising If
necessary rate increases are made
Subscribers. threaten to stop sub
scriptions if its policies do not agree
yith theirs.
!. But sooner or later every citizen
in the community must have the
services of the newspaper for some
purpose or other. Little do they
consider the trials of the average
country editor in maintaining a
;iready to serve" institution that is
seldom thanked for the public good
ii is constantly doing, that is often
cussed for no just cause, but that al
ways comes out on schedule and is
s'ready to serve" in its field, altlto'
the requirements of the individuals
asking the service may come ten
years apart.

OPEN RANGE COMING BACK

The range stock business in Ari-
zona is looked upon as an industry
entirely separate from farming, and
farming with stock raising Re
ports received by the United States
Department of Agriculture show that
the old type of range is not contin-
uing as profitably as it was a decade
ago. The old time antagonism be-
tween stockman and farmer is being
overcome gradually. There is now
a reaction from the practice of home
steaders of breaking up the pastures
by settling on land where they could
not make a living. In some in
stances miles of fences are being re-
moved and the ranges established
where dry farming has been found
Improbable.

II does not realize that many farm

SIBERIAN DUST STORM FELT

In connection with its marine serv.

are over 1000 vessels of various ma

times it serves to verify information

LUMBER VALUE OF PINE TREES
Il NOT HURT BY TURPENTINING.

The operation of turpentining pine
trees does not lower the strength of
the wood, according to information
obtained by the Forest Products La
boratory of the Forest Service of
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture. The crude turpentine. or
oleoresin. is not drained from a res
ervoir' in the tree, but is produced by
the living cells in the sap wood at or
near the spot where the cut is mac e
on the trunk. No turpentine is
produced by the heartwood because
all of its cells are dead The heart
wood may be saturated in places with
pitch, but this does not readily low
out as does the resin freshly formed
in the sapwood. The major part
of the tree is not affected in any
way, aud the loss due to death of
trees or to a reduction or degrading
of lumber is very small when the
proper. method of turpentining is
followed: this loss is more than of
set by the additional revenue OBJ

FARMERS SHOULD BAND To-
GETHER AND HAVE EXPERT
MARKET THEIR PRODUCE

In times OF falling prices business
is always bad, especially the farm
ing business.
In looking for remedy the first
question naturally asked is. why
such large charge for distributing
our farm products to the city con-
sumer?" And possibly the next
natural question of the farmer u.s..
''If this charge is inevitable. why
not do the work ourselves and keep
the change ?''-namely why not go
into marketing?
II we analyze the first question
we will find that there are many
reasons for high marketing charge
A few important one are:

FIRST PERFECT RECORD FOR
AIR MAIL SERVICE.

For the first time in its history,
the Air Mail Service, during the
week of June 5-11, had 100 percent
performance on all divisions, includ
ing the trans-continental route from
New York to SanFrancisco. Sec
ond Assistant Postmaster General

congratulations to all the field forces
for this splendid showing.

The trans-continental route from
New York to San Francisco will he
con- inued as usual under appropria-
tion made by congress. 1t has been
necessary to abandon the lateral
routes because Congress has not ap-
propriated any money for the opera
tion of these routes during the next
year. The aviators and other men
on these discontinued routes will be
transferred to the trans-continental
route and as far as possible utilized
on regular work or on the reserve

utilized in this manner.

owned by wealthy tax dodgers. But
the farmer and the wealthy BOND
holder must pay double taxes on otn-
er property or increased prices for
whatever they eat, wear or buy to
make up for double taxes paid by
someone else to cover the taxes lost
on tax free bonds which were to give
someone something for nothing.
The more tax exemptions we get

the situation with desperate hero
