Why Farmers
Need Help
BY ISRAEL KLEIN
Science Editor, NE.A Scrvic

Here are figures showing the plight
of the farmer. They've been com
piled after a national survey by the
National Bureau Of Economic Re
search:
While the cost Of living has been
rising. the farmers income has been
dcclnng--a double blow.
In 1919 the total agricultural in
come for the United States was So
5S9.000.0O0. 1.-Two years later it had
dropped 50 per cent---to S3?65,0Oo.-
900!
While comparative figures arc
obtained for only this period. it is
estimated that the decline has been
going on, although not in such grea.
proportion.
The research bureaus survey shows
however, that the burden Of loss has
been resting on the farmers Of the
west north central states, where !;
decrease in farm income Of nearly z:
per cent is recorded for the two years
under observation. The farmers ir
New England have been able to hold
their own against this. and in fact
have been showing a profit.
Nebraska is one OF the states that
have been hit hardest in agricultural
losses. The farmers Of that state en-
joyed an annual income Of $225,OO0.-
900 in 1919. In 1921 the income had
fallen down to $S,OO0.00O!
Iowa is another state in the west
north central group that suffered
greatly these years. The farmers
of that state suffered an income
reduction Of 80 per cent!

cutting deeply into the incomes of
the farmers. Not so much in New
England, where farmers for the most
part still own their farms. as in the
rest of the country where great
part OF the agricultural income has
to be paid off in rent and interest.
Farmers in the west north central
states, as result, found that their
share in the income from their lands
was only 1892 per cent.
The total current agricultural IN
come Of farmers and property owners
in Nebraska was SO low in 1921 that
there was very little left for the far
mcrs after the non-farmers received
their share in the form Of rent and in
terest on mortgages the bureau re-
ports. "In that year Nebraska farm
ers received only 81 per cent Of this
part Of the total net current agricul-
tural income earned in the state.
This, of course. is not the nor

bureau adds.

NEW STEAMER FOR
 LOCAL TRAFFIC

Presaging the participation of a new steamship line in the local transportation trade, word has been received that the Border Line Transportat- ion Co.,, a Portland shipping firm, is preparing to make a bid for local trade by placing one of its vessels on the Se- attle-Hyder run.
 Partial details of this inter- esting development are con- tained in a telegram received Saturday by Ben Oien from Holger Johnson, manager of the Hyder Dock and Hyder Fuel company, who is now en- route from the south.
 Mir. Johnson's message states that the steamer Border Queen is scheduled to leave Seattle for Hyder direct September 20th, with coal and general cargo.
 Of greater significance, how ever, is the added statement that the vessel will remain on the run permanently, making trips every 20 days after the first date of sailing.
 The proposal of the Border line people is believed locally to be a part of a recently an- nounced intention of Portland commercial interests to make a bid for Alaska business, with the hope of diverting a port ion of the Alaska trade from Seattle to Portland. The move ment is said to have the back ing of the leading Portland business houses and is planned to ultimately establish steam boat connections with all important southern Alaska towns.

BUDDINGToN REPORT
 ON RYDER DISTRICT

U. S. Geological Survey bulle-
 tin No. 783-B, containing the report of Prof. A. r. Budding ton on his geological investi- gations in the Southeastern Alaska district during 1924, copies of which were received on a recent mail, gives short summariZation of his findings in the Hyder district. Brief descriptions are given of the Ibex No. 1, owned by Day Bros, of Idaho and others, the Dominick Bevacqua property on the east side of Ferguson glacier, the Ibex No. 7, own ed by Messrs. Hewitt and Carlson, and the Mountain viw Gold Mining Co. proper ties on Fish Creek. Brief refer ences also made to the results of development work done on the Homstake group by Hew- it and Carlson.
 A major portion of the report is devoted to the Mountain view holdings, three claims of which are described in detail rom the geological viewpoint.
 In view of the wide extent of Prof. Buddington's researches in 1925, the report is some what disappointing, as it merely supplements in exceed ingly brief manner his previ- ous report of Investigations made in 1924. No mention is made of either the Thumb Creek, Chickamin or Cascade river sections, all of which were visited by Prof. Budding ton or his assistant, w. B. Jewell It is possible, howev- CT, that his findings respecting those localities may be embod- jed in a later report covering the investigations made last year.

| Taking another forward step in keeping with the general progress of the community, the Chamber of Commerce, with a majority of the mem- bership present, voted Tues day evening to incorporate under the Territorial laws providing, for the incorporat- ion of non-commercial bodies. The motion to incorporate was passed by unanimus vote, fol- lowing the reading of a tenta- tive charter prepared by At torney Arthur Fox of Ketchi- kan, setting forth the objects of the organization.
 Under the proposed charter the affairs of the organization will be conducted by a Board of Directors consisting of sev- en persons, chosen by the members at an annual meeting to be held in October each year. Monthly meetings will be held by the general body to discuss matters pertaining to the affairs of the organi- zaton and community.
 All persons who are interest ed in the district are eligible to membership in the new or ganization. The dues wll be $1.00 per month as before, but payable in advance for the first year and every six months in advance thereafter.
 The incorporation papers will be filed at once and it is hoped to hold the first meet ing of the incorporated organ ization during the first days of October.

CHIEF METALS
 OFFICIALS PLEASED

o. H. Ebbinghouse, c. s. Nor ton, A. Carlson and H. Brick son, officials and stockholders of the Chief Metals Mining Go. left Sunday for Seattle, after spending a week on the com pany properties inspecting the results of the development work accomplished during the season under the direction of manager Emil Davis.

Carlson and Erickson are as sociated in the operation of the Hotel Curtis, a prominent Seattle hostelry.
 During a conversation with a Herald representative, the members of the party express ed themselves as greatly pleas ed with the outlook for Chief Metals and stated that it is the intention to proceed. with development and place the property on a productive basis if possible. Although no defi- nite plans have been made, future operations will probab- ly be conducted on an enlarg- ed scale and aided by machin- cry equipment.

s. T. Pinkham, U. s. Postal Inspector for the Northwest district, examined and approv- ed the accounts of the local postoffice Wednesday. Ac- cording to MT. Pinkham the office is one of the best con- ducted postoffices in the country and passed the exami- nation with a 100 per cent rating on every point. In mak- ing the announcement of his findings the inspector paid high tribute to the efficiency displayed by Postmaster Oren F. Hill in the conduct of the of flee and said he wished that all of the offices under his juridiction were managed in as able a manner.
 The business of the postof- flee is steadily increasing and has resulted in the office be- ing raised from the 4th class to the rank of a 3rd class of flee. The change is of benefit to the public in the degree that the office is now author ized to handle international money orders, thereby enab- ling the forwarding of money by postal money order to any part of the world.

A good sized crowd attended the stereoptican lecture and basket social held at the M. E
 Church Friday evening and enjoyed a decidedly pleasing entertainment. The illustrated lecture by Rev. s. V. Warren, entitled The Shadows of a Great City or The Sums of New York;" and portraying the life story of two waifs ot the slums, proved very inter- esting and is characterized by those attending as among the best entertainments of it's kind they have ever witnessed.
 The lecture was followed by an auction of the baskets brought by the ladies and a general jollification. The pro- ceeds were devoted to clear ing up the church debts for the current conference year.
