National Master Taber also dis
cusses from the Grange standpoint
the increased mortgage indebtedness
of the farmer, taxation, gasoline tax,
flood control and internal water
ways; also the benefits resulting
from the extension of the Grange
into many new fields the past year.
Attention is also called to the fact
that this has been the banner Grange

Approaching Winter Brings
Thoughts Of Coal

Coal, as we think of it who must
buy it to keep warm in winter
months, is something to burn. Origi-
nally, however, coal was a piece of
glowing carbon or charred piece of
wOod-an ember or cinder. 1t was
not until the discovery of coal as a
combustible mineral substance that
it became the name of fuel to burn
instead of fuel already burning or
burned.
Residents of the eastern States
will probably burn hard coal, or
anthracite, this winter. People who
live nearer soft-coal mines, as, for
example, Kansans, will probably
burn bituminious coal. The softest
coal is Ignite, or brown coal; next
is bituminous, then anthracite, and
finally comes graphite, the product
which contains the most carbon.
Anthracite comes, according to
Webster's New International Die
tionary, from the Latin "anthra-
CITES" a kind of bloodstone, from
Greek word meaning like GOALS" It
differs from bituminous chiefly in
having only a small amount of vo-
latile matter-which is to say sub
stances readily vaporized or turned
into gas. Anthracite coal therefore
burns with a flame which is almost
nonluminous; that is, its flame gives
very little light,

Facts About Geysers
Pounds Only in Yellowstone, Iceland
and New Zealand

Recently a new geyser appeared
in the Yellowstone National Park.
For three hours, twice every day,
this geyser jets forth a column of
hot water and steam. 1t does so,
that is, if it has not already ceased,
for the the life of a geyser is often
quite uncertain.
Geyser is an Icelandic word. Ice
land is one of the three places in
the world where geysers spout; the
other two are New Zealand and the
United States. According to Web
ster's New International Dictionary,
"geyser" was the name of a certain
hot spring in Iceland, from a word
meaning "to rush furiously," which
came in its turn from a word mean
ing "to gush."
The correct pronunciation of gey-
ser is as though it were spelled
"gi-ser" or "gi-zer," the ''i" long as
in "ice." When the first syllable is
given the sound of long "a" the pro-
nunciation then approximates the
Icelandic manner of speaking the
word.
A geyser consists of a tube or hol-
low crater in rock, which fills up
with ground water over rock bot
tom which is heated by volcanic con-
ditions. The water gradually gets
hot, approaching the vaporizing
point When a little spills over the |
top, the delicate balance is upset, /
and the water nearest the hot rock
instantaneously turns to steam, ex-
panding Immediately with force
sufficient to send the hot water and
steam jetting forth until the tube
like crater is empty. The interval
between jets is the time it takes for
the water to fill the crater and be-
come thoroughly heated again.
The argument has been raised that

Peat is nearer vegetable than

snnn0rt 1sth Amendment

The Grange will never change its
position on temperance. We must
therefore struggle toward the goal
of honest and efficient law enforce
ment. The Eighteenth Amendment
will not be changed, the saloon will
never return to America. Social
moral and economic conditions are
ali against the return of the liquor
business. The friends of temperance
and progress must recognize that
ceaseless warfare is essential; edu-

opinion must be quickened; ana

Have you ever stopped TO Ln1nK
of what is happening in the
United States - and in certain
other countries-manufa
wise?
In America, the East used to
be the home of manufacturing
more especially New England.
Cyrus Mccormick invention ef
the harvesting machine and
George Pullman's development of
the railway sleeping-car proved big
things for Chicago, as did the loca.
ton there of packing plants by
Phil Armour, Gustavus Swift, Mel
son Morris and others. Chicago
rapidly expanded.
The advent of the motor car sent
Michigan, Indiana, Ohio and other
States inland from the Atlantic sea-
board shooting ahead industrially.
The Middle West, In short, began
to vie with the East in Industrial
Importance.
What's Going On
What Is going on now?
Many cities in the Eastern half
of the South are attracting new in
dustries on a very substantial
scale. The most spectacular evolu.
ton is the migration Of cotton
mills from New England to the
Carolinas and other sections near
the raw material. The whole
South. indeed, is making notable
industrial progress.
On the Pacific coast this growth
of industries and this migration of
industries are extremely I'm
pressive. Seattle. Oakland, Port
land and San Francisco are all at
tracing and developing manufac-,
turing.
So is Los Angeles. Oakland and
Los Angeles strike me as the
fastest-growing industrial centers
on the coast.
Population in southern California
has increased so swiftly that an
Important local c0nsumptive
market has been created. Gigantic
corporations located elsewhere are
establishing here branch plants for
manufacturing or assembling or
distributing. and local enterprises
are springing up as in few cities
either Eastern or Western.
Did you know that Los Angeles
is now the second largest rubber
manufacturing center in the
world? 1t has its well-established
loca1ly-owned Samson Tire and
Rubber Company. also, q large
Goodyear plant, while within the
last year, two other leaders In
rubber located here. Goodrich
and Firestone both began work
on plants which will represent an
investment OF over $4,000, 900
when in operation.
Following their aggressive ma
tional policy, the towering mail
order houses have come here.

local assembling and distributing
plants costing fully $4,000, 900.

TWO L|NDBERGH
BILLS FAVORED

Passage of two bills to honor Col.
Charles A. Lindbergh was recon-
mended today by the House Com
mittee on Coinage, Weights and
Measures.
One, by Representative Tilson R.y
Of Connecticut, would direct the
presentation of $500 gold medal
to Lindbergh. and authorizes cast
ing of sufficient bronze replicas
of the medal to reimburse the Gov
eminent through their sale to the
public.
The other. by Representative
Kvale F.-M9 Of Minnesota, would
provide for issuance of 10000, 900
Lindbergh medals to be sold at
price to be fixed by special com
son. The commission would include
one Senator, two Representatives,
and the mayors of Little Falls,
Mimi, and st. Louis, Mo. OF the
proceeds, $3.50, 900 would be used
to purchase the Lindbergh home
stead at Little Falls, and in coopera.
ton with the Little Falls American
Legion post, it would be dedicated
to some public use, probably the
building of a hospital.
Another $250,000 would be used
to build a Lindbergh museum at
st. Louis, to house the 1000. 900
worth of Lindbergh gifts and souve-
Mrs which Kvale said are assembled
in st. Louis with no permanent
place available to store them.
The balance of the fund would be
used to create an aviation re-
search foundation, to be expended
under direction of Colonel Lind
bergh, the Secretary of Commerce
and the Postmaster General.
The vote on Tilson's bill was
unanimous, and on Kvale's, 10 to. o.

TROTZKY EXILE
SOVIET MD

BERLIN, Feb. 2O.-Trotzky's ex-
i1e. along with 100 old comrades.
will have important consequences
for the world outside Of the Soviet
Union as well as the world within
its borders, according to authorita-
lively informed persons.
Summed up, the result OF Trot-
zky's Punishment will be that the
Soviet Union will come much closer
to the bourgeois world, at least for
the time being.
Joseph Stain, more than ever the
"Czar" of Russia, can now under
take the governmental measures
which he has long considered essen
tial If the Soviet Union is soon to,
reach prosperity and which the
superradicalism of Trotzky' has
hitherto prevented him from doing.
Most important among these
measures are:
!. The winning Of American rec
ognition.
2. Restoration Of diplomatic rela-
tons with England.
3. Settlement of the French debt.
q. Obtaining of credits from all
three of these countries and from
Italy If possible, together with an
extension OIL the CfeulLS dIFeduy W.
tanned from Germany.
5. Within the Soviet Union, pro-
motion of peasant prosperity even
at the temporary expense of the
principles of pure communism.
1t need not be expected that Sta
lin will attempt hastily or crudely
to put into effect these ambitions.
There will have to elapse first a
period of time during which Trot-
zky's jeers about Stains readiness
to compromise with the bour-
geoisie" may be forgotten.
Persons best acquainted with sta.
Inns policies nevertheless agree that
soon after the American presiden.
tial election Washington may expect

satisfy In every particular the slip.
