RULES FOR FLYING IMMIGRANTS

Thirty years ago Americans were
still enjoying the funny verses about
Cyrus Green and His Flying Ma
chine" 1t was so ridiculous to sup
pose that anyone could fly and so
natural that the deluded Green should
come to grief when he tried 1t. On
July 10, of this year, however, Presi-
dent Coolidge issued Executive Order
No. 4049, which contains rules for
"Aliens entering the United States on
Airships." And on October 15 the
giant dirigible IRIS reached New
York after an air voyage of 81 hours
from Berlin. Coming back to the
Executive Order, it provides that:
81. Members of crews of airships
arriving in the United States who in
tend to leave the United States on the
same airships on which they arrive,
or to leave otherwise Immediately or
shortly after arrival, will not be re-
quired to submit individual passports
or other documents, provided they are
| included in crew lists visaed by con.
sular officers of the United States In
| accordance with the requirements OF
the Executive Order Of June IA, 1924,
or with such orders on the subject
as may from time to time be issued.
20. Alien passengers arriving in the
United States on airships will be re.
quired to submit the same documents
, which are required of alien passengers
arriving otherwise in the United
State.
"3. In case Of airships coming to
the United States from foreign coun-
tries the Secretary of State should be
informed in advance of the date and
place Of the expected arrival, in order
that the secretary of the treasury and
the secretary of labor may be advised
The secretary of state and the secre
tary of labor are hereby authorized to
make such additional rules and regu.

taking the trouble and of accustom
ing yourself to thinking in terms OF
your own age.
ut is, I'll admit, more work to be
charming at thirty than at eighteen
But it's curious that many women
bori to mediocrity which persists
through their youth, have at thirt,
found their charm. Because they've
seen then the possibilities of theil
age, and realized that the charm OIL
maturity depends not so much OF
your natural endowments as on the
grooming, grace and mental qualitie.

UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO, Moscow
Pink and green rose aphis, known
technically as the macrosiphum solan-
ifollii, will transmit mosaic, disease
Of potatoes, 1t has been found by the
department of plant pathology, Uni
versity of Idaho experiment station,
as result of experiments conducted
during last year on mosaic and leaf
roll. Especial attention was given to
insect transmission studies carried on
at Moscow and Parma by means of
insectproof cages; studies were made
also on the relation Of environment
to the development and spread Of
these diseases and the testing of vari-
GUS sprays and dusts Tor the proven
ton of these insect vectors.
Eight suspected insects, the flea
beetle, tarnish plant bug, apple leaf
hopper, pink and green rose aphis,
peach aphis, false chinch bug, were
used in the experiment. Negative re-
suits were obtained from all the in.
sects with the exception of the pink
and green rose aphis. Tubers from
plants grown under cages receiving
various treatments will be grown next
year under controlled conditions to
learn If Infection may have occurred
which was not apparent this year.

was found, apparently is quite similar

Successful Hotelman

To make the Occur d'Alene hotel
the home Of Spokane visitors from
the Inland Empire is the ambition of
Jacob Goetz, owner, and Harry Goetz,
his son who acts as manager Of the
hotel.
Jacob Goetz is known to most Of the
pioneers of the Inland Empire and
especially in mining circles. He is an
old time miner of the Occur d'Alene
region and was the discoverer Of the
Bunker Hill and the Sullivan mines,
two of the biggest producers in the
Northwest.
Our ambition at the Occur

fish a home feeling for our guests.
We want everything about you to
strike you with comfortable feeling
of welcome and at the same time to
avoid absolutely that impression of
artificial good will that is SO often
better poised. It's only question of
the net result with hotels who pre-.
tend to this ideal"
"The Hotel With Personality" is
the slogan which has been broadcast
ed over the Northwest and as part
of that program Harry Goetz, the
manager, has trained his staff to take
personal interest in the care and
comfort of his guests.

What a Cold Costs

How the common cold is tax on

From head colds, acute bronchitis

$3.50 days in one year among cler
ical force of $500 persons observed
in one establishment, these disabling
affections occurring at a rate of AL
cases in each 1000 employees for the

January and February were found
to be the danger months. 1t was dis
covered that when the weekly mean
temperature dropped to 10 degrees
there was an increase of is colds in
the same period among this group
Associated with falling temperature
there were other causative factors,
such as overheating and underhumidi-
flying indoor in homes and work
places, the wearing of too much
clothing indoors and not enough out
of-doors, and neglect of personal by,
giene. These elements are now be

"The insignificant hen may make
considerable fuss over one egg, and
it is therefore hard to give her credit
for her real val .e in agricultural pro-
