FARMING NORMAL THERE.
European System Gradually Brings
Back OIdtime Relation.

Washington, July 2O.-Agriculture
in western Europe is being rapidly
re-established on normal basis, &C
cording to Nat c. Murray. crop statis-
tician of the department of agricl-
7ture, who has just returned from an
investigation of European crop condi-
lions.
Farm lands in Germany are well
titled and the farm houses are well
kept" said Mr.. Murray today. In
the devastated parts of northern
France the land has been brought
back to a normal state of cultivation
THE American farmer visiting
western Europe is impressed by the
small size but high state of cultiva-
ton of fields, the large proportion OF
hand labor as contrasted with ma
chine labor on American farms, the
large use of women as laborers IN the
fields and the use of oxen instead OF
horses as work animals. Two-wheeled
carts instead of four-wheeled wagons
are universally used and few automo-
biles are seen in the farming dis
1ricts."

THE SECRET IS OUT.
Tells just How to Avoid Tariff on
Your Car i'm London.

London, July 2O.-Commander
Kenworthy scored neatly in the house
of commons recently. He pointed out
that American visitors often wished
to buy an American car, use it here
for few months and then take it
back to America. They thought it
hard they could not get a rebate of
the duty OF $50 per cent which the
car has to pay before entering this
country.
Members laughed triumphantly.
I've no doubt it sounds very funny
to tax Am orleans Son their own cars %
said Kenworthy, but listen to what
happens. They go to the continent,
buy the cars there, and then get them
admitted to this country duty free on
the ground they are tourists. Now
cheer that" he added emphatically.

Portugal Now Looks With Friendship
UDOn Brazil

Lisbon, July 20.-The daring act of
Portuguese aviators in flying from
Lisbon to Rio de Janeiro, says the
Seculo in an editorial article, has
created a bond of union and amity
between Portugal and Brazil and has
ushered in the psychological moment
to improve existing political relations.
Under the monarchy this seemed on
the eve of accomplishment, the paper
continues. The king was about to
visit Brazil, but his ASA ssination
prevented. The circumstances at that
time were most opportune.
The old question between England
and Brazil of the Island of Trinidad
had been settled by arbitration, and
Portugars course had won the SYM
pathy of Brazik Today the two coun-
tries are uniting in their acclaim of
the Portuguese flyers, and the moment
Should be seized to reach mutually
agreeable settlements of outstanding
problems.

situation other factors are at work.
Unwillingness by the opposing sides
to confer is disastrous.
1.-The best way to settle labor diff
culties is to urge and force, if neces-
sary, employers and employees to get
together.
IF the government is unable to
bring about a conference between the
contending parties for a settlement of
their differences, then it should not
hesitate to use all necessary means to
provide the public with that by which
it must live and prosper and do BUSH

city commissioner of streets and pub
lie improvements, for 1923, there is to
be an item which will cover the, ex-

To Free Your Arms
of Hair or Fuzz
(Boudoir Secrets)

No toilet table is complete without
small package of delatone, for with
it hair or fuzz can be quickly banished
from the skin. To remove hairs you
merely mix into paste enough of the
powder and water to cover the objec-
tionable hairs. This should be left on
the skin about minutes, then rubbed
off and the skin washed, when it will
be found free from hair or blemish.
Be sure you get genuine delatone.-
