There seems to be a dearth of ready,
tO-Iay pullets in the present market;
demand has been heavier this year than
for many seasons and there is everT
reason for this in the necessity for
competition with four footed meat.

RECOGNITION
Of RUSSIA
Soviet Trade Envoy Warns,
However, That Capitalists
Seek Concessions
By WILLIAM RESWICK,
international News Service:

MOSCOW, Jan. 17.-Recognition
of Russia by the United States
Government this year was predicted
today by Christian Rakovsky,
Soviet trade envoy, speaking
before the Teachers Congress.
While such recognition will be of
great Importance to Russia"
Rakovsky said, 1T would be
negligible If conditioned upon a
Dawes plan for Russia
Experience shows" he con-
tinued, that the capitalists want
to wrest from us concessions
which would enslave the country
and convert Russia into a Morocco.
: He asserted that the Soviets were
determined to preserve the elemen-
tails Of socialism but that foreign
investments should be protected.
RidicuIes RalxOvsIky Claim.
LONDON, Jan. 1.-THE Ameri-
can embassy ridiculed today the as
sertion of M. Rakovsl1y, Soviet trade
envoy, that the United States would
recognize the Soviet Republic with
in the year.
Its a hope rather than a fact, :"
it was said at the embassy, and
was stated merely, for home con-
sumption"
Ambassador Kellogg has never
met Rakovsky, even socially, and
does not plan to meet him before
returning to America, it was said.

PENDLETON, Ore.-Unusual activ-
fly is marked in the lodge of the red
man on the Umatilla Reservation near
here as the annual Indian Beauty Con-
test, featured as part of the Pendleton
Roundup September 1920, draws
nigh. For the beauties of the vari-
GUS tribes and households are beauti-
flying themselves as for the coming of
bridegrooms in an effort to lift the
coveted title of Americas premier In
dian beauty now held by White Fawn,
whose Christian name is Esther Mo-
tanic, of the Cayuse Tribe. Contest
ants galore are pitted against her,
and with the tribal ruling out that
only long-haired Indian girls are eli
gible in the contest, the numerous In
dian maidens with single hobs and
all other forms of hobs are making
conscientious efforts to stretch out
the length Of their raven tresses to
get into the competition.
With the single exception of the
long-haired regulation, the judging of
the copper-colored beauties is carried
out on the same lines as those applied
to their. white sisters 1t is not an In

dian contest for aborigine girls, but
white contest for Indian maids, and
the girls are going to great lengths
to adorn and beautify themselves as
to become competitors.
Since it is a white standard the
judging is done by, the Indians are
applying white mans methods to
identifying the daughters of the
household. Bear grease and war
paint, for centuries unknown the
standard cosmetics of the red men,
are strictly taboo. In their place have
been substituted the cold cream and
lip stick Of the 1925 model flapper,
and the more ambitious are searching
frantically for shade of rouge which
will bring an added bloom to dusky
cheeks. Manicure scissors and finger
nail polish are in as great vogue as
they have ever enjoyed among the
pale-face elite, and it is reported that
no few of the girls who will enter the
contest are mastering the difficult art
of applying regulation beauty parlor

including the henna rinse, to them
selves and to one another, while

Washington Fifth In
Canned Milk Products

Many Washington dairymen, who
have long considered their state to
be way up in the lead in production
Of evaporated milk, will be surprised
to learn that in her total production
she only stands fifth in the list and
that her total production does
not equal one-flfth of that produced in
Wisconsin. Washington was credited
with manufacturing in 1924, evaporat.
ed milk to the amount Of 1903, 900
pounds as compared with Wisconsin,
442,5S3,00O pounds; CALIFORNIA; 1922
$4,000 pounds; New York's 97,993,000
pounds and Michigan's 85,642,O00.
There are 10 states listed as manu-
featuring evaporated milk in the gov
ernments report, DAIRY Products
Manufactured in 1924" The produc-
ton Of these states totals 1,1S9,755, 900
pounds, or 24,7S6,563 cases.

Use of a box in the grandstand dur
ing the week of the Washington State
Fair September IA to 10, has been
awarded to Mrs. John Fl. Hoy, Ever
son, Wash, for the best slogan for the
fair submitted in the contest an
nounced in June. The slogan adopt
cd is "An Exposition of Prosperity
and Pleasure" and was chosen by the
judges of the contest after long con-
sideration of the large number sub
mitted. Residents Of Western Wash
ington showed an especially keen in
terest in the fair, as indicated by the
fact that they sent in more slogans
than those of the eastern part of the
state, according to Secretary A. e.
Lawson.
The revival Of horse racing inter
est is shown by the entries for the
races which closed on July l5, with
the largest and fastest line of horses
entered for the State Fair track since
1908, according to DR.. Robert Prior,
superintendent of the speed divi-
sion of the fair. All races filled, and
the purses offered have drawn entries
from the best stables in Washington
and Oregon, as we'll as from Alberta
British Columbia and California. A
great livestock show is assured.

Gated the beautiful beaded dress
which carried White Fawn SO far last
year. Blue Meadow, known also as
Eliza Cowapoo, who finished third, Is
up and at 'em with view to finishing
first, and this years contest promises
more than ordinary interest.
Among the girls who wore bobbed
tresses last year change has been
wrought also. Their hair Is as long
as one years growth can make 1t, and
white beauty experts declare that
bobbed hair Is capable of many inches
of growth in year IL left alone. Elk
cept for various applications of frag.
rant waters guaranteed to aid and
abet It's growth, 1t has been left alone,
and many Of the disappointed ones
last year will be eligible competitors
this year.
Thus 1t is that there Is great activ-
ity in the lodges Of the red men-ac-
tivity which will be intensified as
time passes and which will reach It's
climax in the teepees of the Indian
village at Pendleton's famous round.

, Is how:
Mary can't bob her hair. She adj
mits she would like to, but there are
two reasons why she can't.
"The public and my husband" Mary
says. THAT brings in unanimous
verdict to keep my curls," she added,
with laugh.
Mary gets more fan letters urging
her not to bob her hair than any
other kind. She would much prefer
to cut 1t off, but doesn't dare.
II think bobbed hair is very SEN
sible," said Mary. 1T is comfortable
and convenient and | sometimes envy
the girls who have a boyish bob"
So Mary, who takes care Of her
own hair every day, and has since she
was small girl, often piles 1t high
on her head and makes an "old-fash'
toned" bob.
Figuring her time is worth SIS q
minute, she must pay at least $3.50
q day to keep her curls, which would
buy 600 marcels or 80 permanent
waves each week.

CONTINUED from Last Week)
Under shortened sail, the Aleutian's
speed diminished greatly, and the
strange schooner came up hand ovel
flslt across our bows. If pirate ne
was, it was unlikely that he would
attack us going to the Anadir coun
try, but rather he would wait until we
supposedly a trader, had loaded WIFI
gold and furs, and take a chance OF
overhauling us again.
Schooner and squall arrived almost
at the Same time. The wind and rain
battered swiftly over the water to
ward us from, one angle, while the
strange craft approached from an
other Like deluge the rain, whipped
by the sudden violent wind, struck,
and within few seconds had thrown
an opaque curtain around us. Night
had arrived, for the sun was down.
But once, through lifting of the
screen for but a moment, we saw the
strange craft crossing our bows, and
at her rail were score of unkempt,
bearded men staring hard in our oil
rection. AS one saw us, he waved
his arm to his fellows, and pointed.
The next second schooner and crew
were swallowed up in gloom.
Our gun-pointers, hopes dashed of
getting into action, swore as they
dashed covers about their beloved
guns, and supervised transferring the
ammunition back into the hold.
Never mind, boys" said Jimmy
cheerfully, "that fellow only wanted
to get look at us, anyway. Unless
I'm mistaken you're going to meet
him again" Then he turned to me,
with that .quizzical air which he loves
to affect. when he's most mysterious,
which means that he has discovered
something important.
"Bellew, you saved us bloodshed
today"
II? How-what do you mean?" I
was startled by his words.
ut was your suggestion that we
take Miss Knowlton along, you'll re-
member" he went on. well, dare
say If Miss Knowlton hadn't been
with us, you'd have seen as pretty a
little sea-fght out here as you'd ever
care to witness.
'This long spyglass Thorne loaned
me is very good. Through it l saw
something on that schooner which
made me wish I'd brought whole
division of the Asiatic Fleet with me,
instead of only two guns"
"Then that was The Hawks ship!"
I exclaimed. "And you saw-him?" l
asked incredulously.

matte grin, but I saw his wings!"

her age in the breed.
The production of this Red and
White is deserving more than passing
interest. She has in twenty-five

three live healthy calves. A state
