"Thank you for your wonderful

Life Seems Dreary.
A woman whose husband has been
IS years in the Government service
says sometimes things look dreary.
Read of her attitude:
Hoping your articles will help
the Government workers to better
salaries as we can barely have the
necessaries of life for ourselves and
raise the children the way we would
like to on what we are getting.
"My husband has given SO years
to the Government. Sometimes it
looks awfully dreary, then when We
think of those who are getting less,
We wonder how they do it and try
to be contented. Congress had to
have a raise a few years ago, and
if they could not live on their salary,
and they have their homes back in
their States, and only work part Of
the time, how about the man who
has to work every day and does not
and can not own his home?"

years will be greater than in 1927
and that strong competition from
California will continue. These con.
ditions, with their probable effect
upon price, must be carefully
weighed by any grower who con-
templates the planting of new vine
yards.
Strawberries:
The immediate market outlook for
strawberries is slightly less favor
able than that of year ago. The
chief element of weakness in the
situation is the unusually large acre
age in some commercial sections,
With average yields, the crop this
year will be one of the largest on
record. If growers reduce acreage
in response to low prices, as they
have in the past, the outlook for
1929 and 1880 will be more favor
able.
The market outlook in the inter-
mediate States is decidedly unfa-
vorable. This group includes Mary
land, Delaware, New Jersey, Ken.
lucky, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Mis-
souri,, and Kansas. California be-
longs in this group but the situa-
ton there is favorable. Paintings
in this general group have been
gaining steadily and last year SO 900
acres were harvested. Prospects are
for 10000 acres in 1928. The IA
yorable prices in some of these
States last season may be explained
IN part by the reduced yield per acre
due to flood damage and the spring
freeze in the Ozark region. Not.
withstanding the lower yields per
acre in certain Of these States. their
production in 1927 was tho
highest on record. If yields in 1928
are average, production will exceed
that oil last year. Reduced paintings
IN these States seem advisable.

(From the Washington Post.)
The Defense Highway, connecting
Washington and Annapolis, should
be widened in the interest of ma
tional defense and to reduce acci-
dents, the House Roads Committee
was told yesterday at hearing on
the Gambrill Bill. The bill provides
for a Federal appropriation of
$l,OOO,O0O to widen the highway to
80 feet.
Rear Admiral John Halligan, IT.,
chief of the Naval Bureau Of Engi-
neering, told the committee that
widening of the road was a national
necessity, inasmuch as it is the only
link between the Navy Department
and the nearest channel deep enough
for the feet.
Admiral Halligan said that during
the first six months that the road
was open he saw almost a wreck a
day on it.

He is a messenger, and declares it

Service examination and passed the
same for the messenger service.
Since my appointment l have been
promoted to a mail messenger, which
carries a salary from $1,140 to ST.

Glass 2, where l couldn't get more
than $1,140, which is the highest
