WOMEN MAKE WOOL COMFORTS

The fact that much wool has proved
unstable except at loss has caused
many farm women to consider the
home utilization of some of the wool
on hand. A few months ago home
demonstration agent from the United
States department of agriculture and
the state agricultural college gave a
demonstration on the washing and
carding of wool for comforters at a
club meeting in Silverdale commun-
ity, Kitsap county, Wash. AS re-
suit women all over the county have
become interested in making wool
comforters, and it seems as if there
would be enough. made OF supply an
entire future generation. Flour and
sugar sacks have been found excel

WESTERN farmers
seed LOANS REP AID

In the face of another unfavorable
crop year farmers of the northwest
are gradually repaying the govern
ment the loans for seed advanced
them early this year as an emergency
measure made necessary by three
years of total or partial crop failure
in drougth-stricken areas. Total col
lections up to November Is. amounted
to S286,0O0, according to returns re-
ported by representatives of the u.
S. department of agriculture, who are
handling the work at the temporary
field office established for the pur-
pose at Grand Forks, N. D.
About $4,000 farmers received gov
eminent aid in the form of loans
from the $2,0OO,OOO made available by
congress for their relief. AS a re-
suit of three successive bad crop
years financial conditions among the
farmers in the stricken regions have
been very serious; many of them haC
exhausted their credit and were un.
able to purchase seed for planting
crops this year. The federal govern.
ment came to their relief with {
credit of 100000 to be applied by
the United States department of agri
culture.
Within 20 days after the passag,
of the act the department had per
fected an organization and began t,
make loans to the farmers. In re
turn the farmers gave promissor!
notes on the crops to be grown from
the seed, payable November 1. Earl!
in October repayments began coming
in, and the work of collecting tn
loans has gone steadily forward since
in spite of the fact that the farmer
are in but little better position nov
tran they were last year. The crop
have been only fair this year, wit
partial failures in many places, an
as a result the borrowers are in finan
cial straits again.

THE AFTERMATH.

The railroads are feeling the after
math of the threatened str.ka. While
the strike seemed imminent M tie
last days of October freignt was
rushed through to get it to its eds
tination tefore the tieup Jo,i: place.
Particularly was this true of the
western roads that handle grain ship
ments. For instance, the Burlington
handled $50 cars of grain per day
in October, but now only 100 cars are
handled on the average. Other roads
have suffered a similar decline ir
business.

GROWING RIFT BETWEEN FRANCE AND
 ENGLAND IS REVIEWED BY FRENCHMAN

London, Oct. 31-The frankest an6 most enl1ghtening analysis of the growing rift between Englaand and France, only lately inseparably linked the special French issue of the Times the newspaper which. above all oth- CTS, has fought for a continuation ot the Entente.
 An Englishman in France today cannot be joyous the Times Paris correspondent writes. None save the tourist type or those who travel for change of air aand surroundings with out thought of what lies below the surface of things can feel at ease. Tn truth, the uneasiness of Eng Hshmen in France will probably be in direct ratio to their powers of per they knew France before and during the war the more they worked for unity in action and mutual compre- hension in years gone by, the keener is their realization that great efforts and infinite patience will be needed if the present generation of Frenchmen and Englishmen are again to speak of and believe in the Entente Cordiale.
 Some Englishmen and some Frenchmen say curtly, The Entente is dead' Others confess that it is sick unto death. Others admit sickess, but hope also in the patients power of
 Why have France and England drifted apart? The history of the Peace Conference and of the meetings of the Supreme Council that have fol- lowed 1t supply, in some degree, an answer. The failings of politicians on both sides-their vanities, their per sonal ambitions. their ignorance, their short-sightedness. their love of sharp practice, their oscillations and, in a word, their total lack of vision that is the essence of statesmanship-cons tute another element in the answer"
 The correspondent has talked with one of the greatest living Frenchmen. This man admits the sickness of the Entente and outlines the problem as follows:
 We made war~to gether and won it. despite incredible difficulties. Then we tried to make peece-and failed.
 We have not given to the world to the Allies, to our former enemies the sense of security that is the very

 Industry is overshadowed by peril. The exchanges are unstable to the point of rendering trade impossible.
 Without trade and industry there are, and there will be, unemployment and social unrest. threatening perhaps the very fabric of society.
 We must, ct all costs, seek security for ourselves and for others. If France has largely lost her faith in her allies and has drawn more and more within herself to brood indignant over prom ises all kept and assurances falsifed it is beca use security is lacking and her sense of what is right has been offended"
 This eminent parsonage. whose name is not given, discusses a 14port that England plans a policy of empire aloofness, of withdrawal from her wartime al1egiances, considering a well-knitted empire sufficient secur- ity.
 He refuses to believe that this is BritianS intention and contends that England is in Europe more than ever before in history.

emp1oyment-but to the higher wages offered by the industries
 Rttchie and Tyler counties are eX- captions to the general rule, as in these counties the slump in the oil business has released a good many men for farm labor, causing a 20 per cent. increase in farm Iaborers.
 It must not be assumed from these reports that there are no men idle ex- cept in the cities. S1umps in the coal, oil and other industries have thrown hundreds of former farm hands out of work. But the fact remains that these men simply will not accept the com paratively low wages that farmers can afford pay.
 One report says: What our far mers need is either reduction in fac tory labor wages or an adjustment of the price of manufactured materials to correspond to the prices received for the products of the farn1."
 Another report says: '@The trouble lies in the fact that the farm labor CTS want higher wages than the far mers can afford to pay.'
 Referring to the oil business slump which threw hundreds of men out of work, one report says: These men would be given employment and glad " by the farmers, yet they seem dis posed toward id1eness and no income rather than to work on the farnl.''

PATENT SUIT WON BY NOTED
 TOBACCO FIRM

In an opinion just handed down in the Patent Ofhce, F. Lor1llard com pany has been held entitled to use the trademark "Beech-Nut' for to- bacco products. including cigarettes This decision is not only important as a matter of trademark law, but it is of special interest in the tobacco industry.
 The Case arose from an application filed by the Beech-Nut Packing com pany in the summer of 1919 for the registration of this trademark for cigarettes. The Packing company based its application upon the use it and it's predecessors had thereto fore made of the trademark for many years. beginning about 1891 for meats. and gradually extended until it included groceries, candy and chewing gum, many of which were packaged articles and some of which have neen lately sold in stores selling tobacco products.

 It appeared in the testimony that this use of the trademark Beech Nut' for chewing tobacco was begun by the Harry Weisstnger Tobacco company about 1897 and that the ownership of the brand for this pur- pose had come to Lorillard com pany through sale by the Harry Weis- singer company to Luhrrnan & Will bern Tobacco company and by the last-named company to P.

The ground ot the decision is that tobacco products are goods of entirely different de- scriptive qualities from groceries, meats, candy. and chewing gum.
 Accordingly the opposition of P. LorilIard company was sustained and the application of the packing com pany to register the trademark ''Beech- Nut for cigarettes denied.

Morgantown, ". Va, Oct. 31-Re- ports from the county agents in var ious parts of West Virginia submitted at the request of Henry c. Wallace, Secretary of Agriculture, at Washing ton, show that what unemployment there Is ir this state is not on the farms. Telegrams were sent out to every county in the state with a view of getting the information to use in conjunction with the national confer ence on the employment situation. The replies uniformly indicate satis- factory labor conditions on the farms.
 A few examples from widely scat tered territories show the conditions that exist: Pocahontas county has less than one per cent. unemployed. Pleas ants, two per cent; Cabell, five per cent; Ritchie, one per cent; Tyler, less than five per cent; Berkeley, five per cent, and Kanawha reports that all farm labor desiring employment is at work.
 Several of the counties report less laborers employed than usual at this season, but that condition is readily explained. For example, Berkeley county has only about 80 per cent. of the usual number of iaborers, due to the small force required to handle the light apple crop. This represents transient labor, of course. Cabell county has 25 per cent. less men en- ployed on the farms, due-not to un-
