1t Costs money Not to Own a
Hoover.

These are the bills for cleaning your car
pets and rugs, the expense of woman who
comes to sweep and dust, the expense of
laundering draperies darkened by swept up
clouds of dust, the cost of new brooms, etc.
But your biggest expense is the cost of new
rugs to replace the worn. out Unless rugs
are regularly beaten by the Hoover, grit embeds
itself in them Under shoe pressure the des-
tructive grit gradually cuts the nap away. The
Hoover prevents such wear. Many times over it
pays for itself in that way alone.

Permit us to call and leave Hoover. Convince
yourself of ali we say. We have factory man
who will gladly demonstrate for you

NEW YORK, June 15.-Wide and

Mexican Petroleum suffered an ez-
IRENE decline of Is points TO ia and
affiliated shares, particularly Pan
American ABB shares, together with
Atlantic Gulf dropped 8 10 points.
Domestic and European oils with
few exceptions also were under pres
sure induced by additional price cuts.
The days reaction was intensified
by other unfavOrable developments,
notably the weekly reviews of steel
trades condition, which failed to fore

Rails were among the isolated fea-
lures of strength, the market rallying
measurably at midday when New

continued regular dividends.
Steels. equipments, sugars, tobaccos

unclassified specialties followed the
oils, almost the whole lost recording

The money market and foreign ex-
change were unaffected by the up

Officials Refuse
To Comment On
Reports Red Rust

WASHINGTON. June 15.-While
federal bureau of crop estimates Of
ficials declined to issue a statement
today on reports of rust infestation
in spring wheat in South Dakota,
they said they regarded the reports as
designed only to influence the wheat
futures market
They said that the earliest known
appearance of red rust in this state,
the sport which later develops into
black rust, is July 6. Elevator men
say they have reports of rust, but au-
thorities point out this might be the
so-called orange rust or leaf rust and
not the fungus growth commonly
known as black rust in its final de-
velopment at the time it attacks the
wheat stem in July and the time when
it does damage.

poem, Mount Shasta" written by
the light OF miners candle after the

Mount Shasta regarded by many
as Ridges masterpiece, is as follows:
And well | ween in after years how,
In the middle of his furrOwed track,

In some sultry hour, will pause and,
wiping
From his brow the dusty sweat, with
reverence
Gaze upon that hoary peak The

Oft will rein his charger in the plain
