FARMERS BROKE,

Crops Poor, "MOUies"
for Empty StOmachs

WASHINGTON, Aug. 23.-(FP)--
confidsnee on the part OF the chiefs
Of the Coolidge administration that
tho western and southern farmers
have swallowed his prosperity" bunk
is melting away. Reports from Mis-
souri,, Oregon, Colorado, Illinois, Penn
sylvania, Indana-all have much the
same theme. Farmers find themselves
unable to pay their debts and main
tain their equipment and give their
families a decent living. Farmers are
disconnected.
Secretary Of Agriculture Jardine has
released to the press, on two success
sive days, two statements designed to
cheer most of the farmers up. The
first is an account of moving picture
called poor Mrs. Jones" which he
has prepared and sent out, to prove
that the lot of the farmers wife is
not nearly so hard as that Of her town
sister. The second statement an
nounces that crop yields this year are
poor The inference he wishes to
draw is that prices will be good.
AIS Propaganda.
Mrs. Jones, according to the story
told in this Jardine-made reel, gets
tired of merely managing her home,
keeping the farm accounts, tending
the garden, caring for the chickens.
etc, and says so. Her husband re-
fuses to sell the farm until she shall
have had a rest, visiting her married
sister in the city.
In the crowded fiat she learns that
city folks don't get fresh food, and
the traffic jams, bargain counter
rushes and the hazards to children are
terrible. In one week she is cured
of her discomfort with the farm, real
ICES that she is really rich" Mrs.
Jones, and goes home to live happily
at the old line of work.
Crops Are Poor.
Yet the next statement begins with
the grim warning: Low yields per
acre are to be expected this year for
principal crops of the United States,
the department of agriculture has an
nounced. The published figures show
that a yield OF all crops combined will
be As per cent under last years crops
and ga per cent below the ten-year
average, as indicated by present cor,
ditions" -
7 Thus, cotton is expected to fall be
low its ten-year average by 3 per cent;
hay, 1872 per cent; corn. 90 per cent;
oats. 80 per cent; potatoes, 3.5 per
cent; tobacco, 6.1 per cent; sugar
beets, 9.3 per cent; barley, LIS per
cent. Spring wheat will run slightly
above its ten-year average.
Taken as a whole, the chief Ameri-
can crops, in spite of increased acre
age, will yield total production of
about 3 per cent below last year, and
lower than in any recent year except
1911 and 1921.

Undeveloped Wealth

There is too much idle land ~
ing on Vashon island unused. Our
toilers of the soil have proved this
year that a fair profit can be oh.
tanned from tilIing the soil.
Strawberry growers have cleared
as high as $500. per acre over and
above all expenses. Sour cherry
growers did almost as well. Po-
tatoes are selling at from $50. to
$50 per ton and grow well on the
island. Eggs have brought a good
price every week daring the past
year. There is a demand right
now for squash, onions, beans, and
beets. All grow well on the island
Lots of idle land may be obtained
either for lease or purchase. This
condition comes largely from the
TACT that the big wages in the cit
,es, which followed the war, took
many of our able bodied farmers
to the city to gather in the immed-
ate earnings of their hands. Now
conditions have changed. Where
as few years ago farm produce
went begging for buyer, now the
buyers are begging for farm pro-
duce. It's poor game that can't
be played both ways. Why not
get in at once and tie up a five or
ten acre tract of land for next
year and get it plowed and put in
shape for a crop next year? If you
read this article and are not ac-
quainted on the island, there are
dozens of people who will aid you
in getting a tract Of land either
for rent or purchase. This paper
isn't i'll the real estate business
but can help you, So can the bank.
So can any of our realty dealers.
Our first duty is to look after the
people who are here and help them
succeed. Then we can branch out
and encourage the enquiring
stranger. As things look now,
next year is going to be bumper
year for the people who are here
on the island and now is the tins
for the stranger to get toe
hold.

Get The Gun

The island is again swarming
with itinerant peddlers who 90
from house to house hawking their
goods, wares, and merchandise,
and the sad part of it is that some
people fall for their bunk. They
pay no taxes, they support no
schools, they back no island i'm
provcments. Such communities
as Auburn have turned them away
and they seek our green fields to
feed upon, before they hole up for
the winter. Here a proposition
the News-RecOrd puts up to the
people of this good island: neXt
time one of these tramp peddlers
from Ghe mainland calls at your
door with his wares TO sell, get his
price and the exact brand of his
goods. Then call your local mer,
chant and get his price on a SINH
lar article. If the local merchant
doesn't quote you a price as cheap
or cheaper than the peddler, this
paper will keep still, If he does,
then your local merchant is justly
entitled to make the sale, This is
land is getting name for pulling
together. Let us live up to that
name by giving our dimes and dol
lars to the men who have faith
enough in the island to establish
business here, and who will be
here to "make it right" if some
thing you buy isn't satisfactory

he successfully served as pastor for
many years, The banquet this
week was planned and carried out

a plan to bring about this effect by
a new wrinkle in garment cutting and
designing. The trick is very simple
The modification is chiefly in the
lapels, which are worn very small and
rolling short. The roll is so short in
fact that it finishes on line with
the top button. This adds length to
the front of the coat, says the tailor,
with the much desired result among
men under height that they appear
several inches taller.
Another innovation is that the
front of the coat, especially in eve
ming clothes, extending to the hip is
cut straight. Sleeves in mems wear
have become narrower, this change
having been made to correspond with
the new "cow heep' stiff cuff of the
