PROMINENT AMERICANS
 GOING INTO TIE VALLEY
 TEN THOUSAND SMOKES

The Reverend Father Hubbard, young Roman Catholic priest, explor- CT of note and Professor of Geology at the University of Santa Clara, Calf. boarded the s. s. Evans at Juneau, to- gether with his guide Jack Koty of Taku River, and Roderick Chisholm, all-American end on last years Ma tional football team. MT. Chisholm has just graduated from Santa Clara in Civil Engineering and will run the transits, etc, for Father Hubbard on his present trip into the Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes.
 Father Hubbard is an enthusiastic photographer, and constant contrib tutor to the National Geographic, as we'll as the syndicated rotogravure sections of all the Sunday papers Outside He will be best remembered for his exploration of Taku Glacier and Mendenhall last year.
 The Reverend gave the passengers and officers on the Evans very en- tertaining lecture last evening aboard the vessel, which was very much en- joyed by all present. He is the very antithesis of the general conception of a priest, and amply bears out the truth of Robbie Burns immortal cap tion "A mans man for a that"

With the early arrivals in port this morning on the Yukon and Evans, the business day began bright and early. One visitor remarked it was the first Alaska town he had called in at where the. inhabitants arose early in the morning and business houses were going full blast by.8 o'clock. He was informed that on account of the gorgeous mornings the citizens had long since discovered it was almost a crime to sleep in for invigorating air and warm sunshine, was never bet ter anywhere in the world, than here, and especially in the early hours. And as soon as the days work was over all who could make it a point to get out in the woods or hills.

WASTE BY EROSION

The value of plant food wasted in
the erosion or washing away of soils
on the farms of the United States is
estimated by scientists in the U. S.
department of agriculture as in ex-
cess of $2,OOO,OOO a year. This es-
innate is based on the value of the
principal chemical constituents
nitrogen, phosphoric acid and pot
ash--as they are purchasable in the
cheapest kinds of commercial ferti-
lizers and does not take into account
the value of the soil as an agency
for making use of these plant foods.
"This sum is more than twenty
times the value of all the plant food
removed by growing crops" says the
department.. "The real soil miner
is not the one who grows crop after
crop of the same kind without re-
placing plant food, but rather than
the one who allows his precious soil
to be washed away, his land to be
quilted and destroyed or the topsoil
to be removed by sheet erosion.
Some of the practices responsible for
this tremendous annual loss, imme-
diate and to posterity, are unwise
clearing of areas which should re-
main in forest, unwise breaking for
cultivation of sloping fields subject
to erosion, unwise cultivation of
soils that erode easily and failure to
terrace lands that could be saved by
intelligent management"

CIVITAN CLUB WILL MEET
TONIGHT AT N. L. MAST'S

At the weekly luncheon of the
Boone Civitan Club last Thursday,
the invitation of Mesdames Paul G.
Spainhour and J. B. Mast to hold
this weeks meeting on the beautiful
lawn at the home of Mr. N. L. Mast
on Cove Greek was enthusiastically
accepted, and this Thursday even
ing at $50, the members, Of the or
ganization, their wives and their
sweethearts, will gather for a "feed"
that will, if such thing is possible,
surpass anything the members of the
organization has enjoyed during the
one year Of its existence. Cars will
leave the Critcher Hotel promptly at
6 o'clock, so as to reach Mr.. Mast's
at $50, the hour set for the dinner.
Prof. |. G. Greer moved that
anyone who tried to make speech
at this weeks meeting should be
fined $25, whereuon Rev. J. P.
Burke suggested that it be made
$3.50 if Prof. Greer tried to "shoot
his lip" So there will hardly be any
speech-making, and the members,
their wives and friends, are assured
of a very delightful evening in
"the Egypt of Watauga.
The main feature of last week S
meeting was the very interesting pa
per on Tuberculosis" prepared and

POLITICAL EVENTS

Highlights of Political Activity of
Both Major Parties Summarized
From Recent News Dispatches
From Over the Country
Moses Claims Three Congressmen
in North Carolina


Washington, July 9.-Senator
Moses, the Hoover manager for the
eastern states, believes the solid
south will be safe for Smith, but
that the Democrats will lose at least
eight members of congress from
North Carolina, Alabama, Florida
and Texas. His estimate is that the
Republicans will gain three men,
bers in North Carolina, but he did
not mention the districts he expects
his party to capture. However, it is
understood he referred to the tenth,
eighth and seventh, represented re-
spectively by Zebulon Weaver, Robt.
L. Doughton and w. C. Hammer.
1t was said here today that there
is good deal of dissension in all the
ten districts in the state as regards
the Smith-Robinson ticket but in
some of the other districts there is
more of it than in any one of the
three named above. 1t is believed by
some observers here that the state
is more likely to vote for Hoover
than is any one of the districts to
send a Republican representative to
the house.

MUCH SUFFERING CAUSED
BY HEAT IN EAST CAROLINA

Kinston, July 10.-During the
most persistent hot spell the eastern
part of this state has experienced in
years the temperature has not ex-
ceeded 100 degrees, but there has
been much suffering and some few
casualties.
The humidity has been intense
since July l. Temperatures have
ranged from "a to 80 degrees here,
while the mercury has attained 100
degrees in one or two localities east
of here.
A hotter spell in June, when the
mercury registered as high as 103
degrees, brought no such discom-
fort as the present wave.

TO ANSWER FARM QUERY

Indianapolis, Ind, July 10.-Wil-
liam H. Settle, president of the In
diana Farm Bureau Federation, de-
clared today that failure of Herbert
Hoover, Republican presidential can
didate, to answer a telegram asking
his personal stand on. the farm relief
question will be taken to mean that
Hoover is going to stand by the plat
form as adopted at the Kansas City
convention. The telegram sent to
Hoover by Settle declared that "the
agricultural plank of the Republican
platform is very unsatisfactory to
the farmers.

Washington, July 8.-His cam

Hoover was ready today to fix def
nitely his plans for going to Palo
Alto, Calf, where he will receive
formal notification of his nomina-

board to handle the battle on the
eastern front completed at a confer
ence of national committeeman from
that section yesterday, and the ap-
pointment of James E. Good as
western campaign manager has put
the Republican machine on a work
ing basis. Arrangement of this or
ganization has been one of the
things keeping Mr.. Hoover at his
post here during the torrid July
weather, but with the sun beating
down little hotter than ever today
he was reported as ready to pack up
for the trip west.

Republicans Pick Tariff as Issu,

Herbert Hoover's presidential
campaign will be wrought over the
protective tariff, according to a
statement by DR.. Hubert Work
chairman of the Republican national
committee. The old-fashioned full
dinner pail will form the basis of
the Republican attack, while pro-
hibition and the equalization fee
phase of farm relief are to be sub
ordinate campaign projects.
Wet and dry issues, according to
Work, will bring more Republican
votes than Democratic. He quoted
one visitor as saying: ''If the Demo-
Gratis won, nobody would have the
price to buy a drink anyhow"
Of the farm needs, he said, ''it is
difficult for me to believe farmers
are in such distress as pictured, with
steers bringing $1S, wool at 35
cents, wheat at $1.47, hogs at high
price and everything else the farm
er sells bringing good prices"
Watauga Democrat. [volume] (Boone, Watauga County, N.C.) 1888-current, 1928-07-12

"The equalization fee provision of
that bill simply planned a method
whereby the farmer could distribute
any surpluses of crops produced at
his own expense without govern
mental subsidy or bonus. That is
the heart of the legislation the farm
ers demand. 1t places the farming
industry on a respectable basis. This
plank should have been incorporated
in the Republican national platform
as it would be in keeping with the
fundamental doctrine of protection
upon which the Republican party is
founded"

Democrats Win Some Republicans

The Chicago Daily Journal last
Thursday printed a telegram from
A. A. McMullen, Republican COVER
nor of Nebraska and leader. at the
Republican national convention, re-
plying to a request from the news
paper for his opinion on the Houston
convention. Governor McMullen's
reply follows:
Answering your wire, the agri-
cultural plank in the Democratic
national platform is satisfactory to
the farm organizations because it
embodies specifically the provisions
of the McNary-Haugen bill although
it does not use the term equaliza-
ton fee.
"It provides first for federal
farm board as did the McNary-Hau-
gen bill; second, in the following
language, Appropriate government
aid to cooperative associations in
the form of credit loans on parity
with the terms of loans authorized
recently by the government to aid
shipping
third, in the following language:
We pledge the party to an honest
endeavor to solve this problem of
distribution of the cost of dealing
with crop surpluses over the market
ed units of the crops whose produc-
ers are benefited by such assistance
it provides for the equalization fee
provision of the McNary-H -Haugen
