With the Pacific Highway now
paved from the northern boundary
of Washington to the Degeneration
MIA line; tourist travel by automo-
bile to the Pacific Northwest will be
greatly facilitated. This highway Is
not merely local route, just for the
convenience of the Pacific Coast. but
it is wonder trail for the whole ma
ton. Along it will travel cars from
every state, and the mountains and
scenic maryels Of Washington will be
the lure that will lead them here.
Supplemented by the active tour
list campaigns promoted by the vari
Gus railway and steamship lines serv-
ing the Pacific Northwest, the ex-
tensive advertising campaign of the
Seattle Chamber of Commerce during
the past year resulted in bringing to
Washington during 1923 the great
est multitude of tourists that has
ever visited the Evergreen State.
Conservative estimates place the ex-
penditures while in the state at
$10,O0O,O0O
Plans are already in preparation
for even more intensive efforts to
attract tourists here in 1924, and
there is every reason to expect this
years record to be exceeded greatly
during the coming season.
The Seattle Cham b er of Com
merces advertising this year gave
publicity to the entire state-not
simply to Seattle.

Causes of Painful Feet

The most common cause Of painful
feet is arch strain. The term "brok-
en- arches" is misleading, because in
these cases there is nothing broken,
but simply strain on weakened
muscles and ligaments. When the
strain is on the arch under the in
ner border of the foot, there is pain
and tenderness at the point of this
arch and sometimes pain and aching
along the muscles up the inner side
and back of the leg.
The transverse arch across the
ball of the foot is common To-
cation for trouble and manifests it.
self by pain and aching under the
ball of the foot, burning and tingling
OF the toes and callouses under the
foot just back of the toes.
Both of these conditions may be
aggravated by shortening of the
heel cords or Achilles tendons, which
may also cause pulling sensation
back of the knees and in the calf
muscles.
Not All "FIat Feet"
1t Is common error to call all
sorts OF foot trouble FLAT feet" or
broken arches" which on careful
examination, may be some entirely
different condition.
1t seems to be the general opinion
that all arch conditions should be
treated with arch supports. The
ordinary arch support simply gives
temporary relief, making the already
weakened muscles weaker. They do
not cure the conditions.
One of the common complaints Is
OF painful heel. This may be due
to various causes such as a strain
on the ligaments attached to the
heel bone, or it may be an inflamma-
ton of the covering OF the hone
One of the rather frequent. and dis
abling causes of the painful heels Is
bony growths or spurs which grow
from the lower border Of the heel
bone, giving the sensation of diffuse
tenderness under the heel or of
walking on some sharp object.
Many Bones In Foot
The feet are made up of number
OF small bones. The joints between
these bones may be affected with
rheumatic conditions the same as
other joints in the body. This may
accompany an arch strain and one
aggravate the other.
The tendons or cords of the feet
and ankle move inside covering
or sheath. These sometimes become
inflamed, due to constant pressure
or rubbing, or due to some infection
at some distant point in the body.
These become very tender and make
any movement of the affected ten.
dons very painful.
The bones themselves may be dis.

Teachers in County Schools
Average $729 Yearly
In Majority of States Average Is
Below This, In Some Cases as
Low as $500 a Year

WASHINGTON.-T Division of
Rural Schools, United States Bureau
of Education, has ready for printing
the results Of an inquiry concerning
the salaries Of teachers in rural
schools in 1923. About half the
counties in the United States are
represented. The number Of one
teacher schools reported was 97,75S
and the average salary received was
1923. In % states the average was
above this salary and below in 26
states. In only six states does the
average salary for one-teacher
schools reach 5000. Of the nearly
$4,000 teachers 800 received less
than $500 a year. Nearly all Of
these are in II states. There were
1880 salaries from $500 to $500, des-
ignated as the $500 group. There
were $3.50 in the $500 group, 1857
in the $500 group, 1926 in the $500
group, 16,432 in the $500 group and
2O,S26 in the $500 group This rep
resents the largest group of the SO,
600 teachers. 1t appears that in
two large States, Indiana and Ohio,
$500 is the minimum salary fixed by
law. In New York the minimum is
$500 for full term of 40 weeks.
In the two-teacher schools reported
the 21,624 teachers were paid an
average salary of $73S. The number
receiving less than $500 was 1,13S.
The $500 group was the largest, with
2,9SS teachers. In 10 states the
average exceeded 5000.
In schools in the open country
employing three or more teachers,
not consolidated schools, there were
12,745 teachers reported, the aver
age salary being $542. Here 5000 is
the largest salary group, 81 states
reporting averages above this figure.
The reports show that there were
1920 teachers in the consolidated
$1,O31. Here the largest salary group
is 5000 with 1928 teachers, only 10
states averaging below this group.
In 16 states the average salary paid
teachers in the consolidated schools
exceeds SLIGO.
In schools having three or more
teachers in country villages and
towns there were 42,025 teachers re-
ported, the average salary being ST.
1873. Here also the 5000 group has
the largest number Of teachers, g.
$40. Thirteen states show less than
5000 for the average salary paid,
while 10 pay exceeding $1,1O0 for
the average.
While the salaries here quoted are
considerably higher than those pre-
vailing in pre-war days, it is a de-
plorable fact that the country school
teachers dollar will pay for less
of the necessities Of life than it did
10 years ago.
No one will claim that city teach
ers are paid too much but reports
for this year show that elementary
teachers in cities of $500 to 5000
population receive an average salary
Of over $1,1OO, in cities Of 5000 to
10000 the average reaches $1,000, in
cities 10000 to 10000 it is S1,277,
in cities 10000 to 10000 the average
is $1,467, and in the larger cities
the average salary has already gone
beyond $1,S75.

KEEPING POTATOES
THROUGH THE WINTER
Specialist Tells How to Do Away
With Storage Rots

with storage ROtS
Much has been said about control
ing potato diseases in the field and
also proper seed selection and seed
treatment. The care of potatoes
after they are produced has not
been emphasized so much.
"In harvesting potatoes much can
be done to aid in their keeping quail
ity," asserts George l.. zundell, ex-
tension plant disease specialist CIV
eryone is familiar with the 'mushy'
frozen potato. Where the potatoes
are kept in a temperature of around
80 to 90 degrees F., for only three
hours, there will be black streaks
formed on the inside though the out
side may look perfectly good.
insufficient air in the storage
house will cause superficial break
down which appears as dark sunken
spots on the outside of the potato.
Black heart is also caused by too
high temperatures and lack Of fresh
air.
I'm handling the crop be careful
about breaking the skin Of the po-
tate. When the skin is broken it
gives fungi q chance to enter the
potato and cause storage rots. To
help overcome the damage to the
potato crop l would suggest that the
potato cellar be disinfected by using
either Bluestone at the rate of one
pound to ten gallons of water or
formaldehyde at the rate of one pint
to ten gallons Of water. Spray
on bins and walls.
Provide each potato cellar or stor-
age house with in1ets for fresh air
and outlets for foul air. Also provide
false floors and walls for the bins.
Have an air space between bins.
"Never store potatoes in piles more
than five feet deep without making
some provision for air to get to the
center Of the pile. Lastly do not dig
more potatoes than can be put in
storage the same day."

Plan Tourist Campaign

Come to the Charmed Land" Of
the Northwest, was the message
which in various forms was herald
ed across the nation. The scenic
beauties of the whole state were
extolled. Mention was made Of many
of the other communities. The whole
effect was to get visitors to come to
Washington and while here to see as
many. of its wonders as possible.
Plans for 1924 contemplate following
out this line of advertising to even
greater lengths.
In, outlining their advertising cam
paign for next year they are giving
recognition to every other commun-
ity in the state, and while not ask
ing others to bear in the expense,
they are offering them an opportun
ity to participate in the benefits of
this campaign.
With a smooth paved highway ex-
tending from Portland to the British
Columbia line, connecting with ex-
cellent road systems of Western
Washington and an excellent high
way over the Cascades to connect
up with the Eastern and North-Cen-
trail Washington network of high
ways, auto tourists will flock to this
state in response to such invitations
as Seattle is extending through ma
tional advertising. Every other city
and town through which they pass
will reap some of the profit and
