Rats May Cross Pacific.

Swedish lumbelmen are on this coast
investigating the possibility of rafting
lumber from British Columbia to
Europe. Lumber RATS of large size,
called rafanutes, have been success
fully towed from Sweden to Great
Britain, says the Scientific American.
The Ocean Iafanute Syndicate pr
London, England. has sent William
OLSON of Stockholm, an experienced
rafanute builder, here to investigate
the possibility of adapting that method
to British Columbia timber exports.
The rafanutes are made of square
timbers. Mr.. OLSON, though express
ing nothing definite, believes that the
tremendous timbers of the British Co.
lumbia forests will make possible the
construction and successful operation
of rafanutes far larger than the RATS
now shipped out of the Baltic. Swedish
structures carry 100000 or 5'000,0oo
feet each. 1t is proposed that the
British Columbia RATS will contain
100000 to 100000 feet.

Admitting that the treaty of Sevres,
with Turkey, must be revised, the
council decided that representatives OF
the allies shall hold a conference with
Turkish and Greek representatives in
London in the latter part of February.
If the governments of Constantinople
and Angora can get together for the
purpose, they will be allowed to send
a joint delegation. To this extent the
council recognizes the Turkish Ma
tionalist government, and it probably
is the least it can do in view of the
strong position of Mustapha Renal
Pasha and his recent military sue
cesses against the Greeks in Asia
Minor.

SELECTING FOOD BY DOOR
Observations of Naturalist Seem to
Show That Insects Are Attracted
by Certain Scents.

"There is much in the behavior Of
certain species of insects" says Doc
tor Bones in the American Naturalist,
ito suggest that food-plants are select
ed on the basis of odor by the parent
female and also accepted on the same
basis by the larvae. Experiments with
cabbage butterflies show that
these insects are attracted by the mus
tard oils present in these plants, and
it has also been shown that caterpil-
lars will feed on other plants which
have been treated with one of these
oils. The distaste of mosquitoes for
Oil of citronella is well known, as is
also the attractiveness of this same
substance for fruit-f1es of the genus
Dacus. Very recently McIn-
doc has published some observations
showing that caterpillars readily re-
act to the odors of several essential
oils and to those of various plants.
This, taken together with the fact that
Pleris will feed upon strange plants
treated with mustard oil, would sug-
gest that odor IS an important factor
In the selection of food-plants."

U. S. AID TO HIGHWAYS.
Senator Stanfield to Introduce Bill
Outlining New Plan

Senator Stanfield of Oregon will in
troduce bill within a short time
providing a new plan Of federal aid
for the highways of the country.
The bill would have the present war
tax Of per cent imposed upon motor
vehicles and accessories turned into a
federal highway fund. In this way
approximately $150.0 900. 900 would be
available. for good roads work in this
country. Senator Stanfield would ex-
empt automobiles. trucks. etc, from
further federal taxation, except in the
matter of duties upon imports
This system. il adopted, it is con-
tended, will form a permanent foun-
dation upon which to base the con-
struction OF a national system of in
terstate highways in cooperation
with the several states and will es-
tablish a continuous program limited
only by the amount Of revenue re-
ceived from this source annually.

DRY FIGHT LOOMS.
Move in Congress to Transfer En-
forcement Jurisdiction,

Legislation regarding prohibition en-
forcement promises to stir up another
bitter fight in the incoming extra ses-
sion. Representative Will r. Wood, re-
publican. of Indiana, a member of the
super-appropriations committee. has an
nounced that he will introduce q bill
transferring enforcement Of prohibition
from the internal revenue bureau to the
Department Of Justice. Chairman An
drew j. Volstead of the judiciary COM
nittee that framed the prohibition en-
forcement law declares he is opposed to
such a move.
The wet" forces in the House, under
the lead of Representative James A.
Gallivan Of Massachusetts, are waiting
for some such split in the ma jority
ranks to stage another fight in the
House over prohibition.
Mr.. Wood said he believed his meas
ure would remedy nom enforcement con-
ditions. He recalled that he said on the
floor of the House last session that he
would take such step if Representa-
tive Volstead did not DO SO, on the
ground that the enforcement machinery
established by the Volstead act had
fallen down hopelessly.
Some Of those who want prohibition
enforcement transferred to the Depart
ment of Justice don't want the law rig
idly enforced" was Representative Vol
steads comment today.

OUTLOOK ON FARMS
FOR YEAR BRIGHT
Return of Labor Welcomed
and Season Will Probably
Yield Big Crops.

Despite the fact that Congress will
turn its attention very soon to the
relief of the farmer, who is said at
the outlook on the farms for this year
is exceedingly bright. if reports to
the government departments are to
be trusted.
Ever since the world war. and in
this instance the date should run back
to 1914. the farmer has had diff
Guilty in getting labor. Munitions
from the rural districts to the factories
long before the United States entered
the conflict, and the scarcity of farm
help began. 1t has continued up to
the present time. Now come reports
from all over the country that in
contrast to the scarcity last year of
applicants for farm work. there is
this season an excess of such ap-
plicants. FaFm wages are from 90
to 80 per cent lower than last spring
in the great farming districts of the
middle west.
More Experienced Men.
One of the most encouraging signs
to the farmer who has had to get
along with any sort of labor that
offered itself, is the fact that this
year an increase in the number of
experienced farm workers is noted.
Farm conditions are so improved
that in New York state a very de-
cided back to the farm" movement
is reported. and it is expected that
large number of deserted farm
lands again will be cultivated.
From New jersey it is reported that
activity in the agricultural sections is
unusual. with the farmers picking
their help with considerable care. In
New England the general outlook for
farm labor supply in various special
crop areas is exceptionally bright,
advices indicating an abundance of
capable farm help at reasonable
wages.
Plenty Of Willing Help.
In the northwest unemployment in
the cities has started a back-to-the-
farm movement and the planting sea-
son has started with plenty of willing
help. In the south Atlantic states
there is every indication of an abun-
dance of farm labor.
In the Rocky mountain states in
creased farm operations are reported.
with plenty of labor available from
decreased industrial activity in some
of the cities. The Pacific coast states
report that farm help will be plenti-
full. The farmers and fruit ranchers
of the Pacific are concerned more with
the high freight rates than with any
thing else. and if expected relief is
obtained in this quarter the farm out
look is considered bright.
In the readjustment of wages it
looks as though the farmer will be
many steps ahead of his industrial
neighbor of the city.
