Paris (UP)-Your ears and not mouth are necessary to the appre- citation of good wine, new wine prophet has announced to a wine- loving France.
 M. Raymond Brunei. professor of oenoiogy of the High College of Commerce, mas informed French men that they do not taste wine with their mouths but with their ears.
 Good wine. those rare bottles sought by experienced drinkers. arc tasted through electric impulses to the ear instead of the palate, Pro- lessor Brpnet said.
 Poor grades of wine have less electric Influence on the sensual ap- apparatus of the ears. the taste being experienced in the mouth although 1t actually comes from the cara. Fine wines have high electrical impression upon the ears. while cheap wines carry a low electrical impulse.

 Professional wine tasters, qucs. toned, Gsclared they believed Pro. lessor Brunet's theory correct.

SOUTH ADVISED TO DESTROY PART
 OF COTTON CROP
Farm Board Advises Cot ton States to Get Rid of One-Third and Help Bol- ster Prices
BY IT. 0. THOMPSON United Press Staff COrrcsDondcnt

Washington, Aug 13.-UP)- Immediate destricution of a third of his growing cotton was de- manded of the southern farmer to-day as the federal farm board s plan for bolstering prices and avoiding financial disaster in the south and indirect distress in the nation as a whole.
 The idea of destroying wealth in an effort to create wealth an ex- traordinary proposal, brings basic economic theories into direct clash It demands the closest cooperation among thousands of individuals. Hence widespread controversy ap- peared certain.
 The plan was laid before the governors of 14 cotton producing states in telegrams from the board. The governors first reaction was one of willingness to cooperate. There was some caution regard ing commitment to a definite program.
 Agreement to the plan by Sep tember 1 and completion of the crop destruction by September 15 was called for by the board. It will continue to drive home the need for a. quick response. Cotton picking already has started in some sections.
 The farm board was hesitant to advance such a drastic measure, for 1t seemed acreage would eaes the situation. Then the depart ment of agriculture's August esti- mate of the new crop last Satur- day said a tremendous crop of 15,684,O0 bales was expected. The board decided the time for tenn porizing had passed.

HAZARD OF RIDING
 ON RUNNING BOARD.
Subject Discussed By Mo. tor Vehicle COnmis-
 SiOner StOeCkel
WHAT LAW FORBIDS

Methods and means of motor vehicle accident prevention have not, as yet, been responsible for the establishment of a law against the danger occasioned when a per- son rides on the running board of a car, says Commissioner of Mo- tor Vehicles Robbins E. Stoeckel. "Serious accidents do occur, how ever," he says, "because of this practice. only recently there was an accident in which q man was killed when he was thrown from the running board of an automo- bile which was passing another.
 "It is frequently observed on the highways that a man may be riding, on running board with his head inside of the car. It is possible to consider that he might be crowding the driver. if he is opposite the front seat on a car that is filled with people. Other wise there does not seem to be le- gal enforcement machinery which enables correction of this special danger through discipline. Com mon sense, however, should make 1t apparent that no one should ride in any such manner in the traffic of to-day, and enforcement officers would be justified in stop ping the car and issuing a warn ing.
 "It is not fair to create an ex- traordinary hazard which other operators have to meet, as they must to avoid hitting persons on running boards.
 "A Connecticut law does not all low animals to be carried on run ming boards unless enclosed in crates. That law was created as an expression of humanitarian motives, to prevent the practice of allowing a dog, usually a police dog, to ride on the running board. A similar measure of kindness might be applicable in the case of human beings.
 "There Is another hazard which Is becoming more dangerous with the frequency of It's occurrence. i This Is caused by the practice of tying the door open so that there
 may be a draft of cool air for the benefit of the persons inside of the car.
 "A law is already directed against the projection of a load beyond the side of the car. but there is no special provision in Connecticut against he projection of a door. It stands to reason,
 however, that a person who trav-
 els along with the door tied open so that it projects out beyond the side of the car is creating q dan gerous hazard, and there Is no doubt that this might be taken into account in making charge of criminal negligence.
 "Both these practices referred to are dangerous, unfair to others, and make the attainment of safe traffic operation more difficult for everybody"

He must be gotten to you by the command Come" and when he has come. command Heel" Often the two can be given with just a pause be- tween words, thus, "Come-Heel."
 
 By the way, give dog only one command at a time. Do not run two commands together.
 You may consider the command Come" unimportant, but 1t is the foundation of the education of your dog-obediencc, founded upon full confiedence in you as his master.

A great change has taken place in the last few years In our atti- tude toward the dog. He Is now considered a piece of valuable prop erty and even the law so considers him.
 But dogs value can be greatly increased with training. Greater companionship. increased protec- ton, moro useful help and practi- cal service come from the dog trained to give his best to his mas ter and masters friends.
 The 10 articles in this series can. not cover all phases of the educa- ton of your dog, but if you follow them closely. you will be able to make n much more valuable and interesting pet or pal of him.
 First, got the attention of your dog. Do .his by calling his name, which we will assume Is Spot. (An- fingers of one hand against the palm of the other just as the Jap anese lord in the movies. This sharp noise. as soon as he becomes accustomed to 1t. will bring him to you lIoHl htIOSS tnc StIccL duu dL some distance.)
 "SDot, "ome," is an easy com mand. and should bring him quick Iy. But sometimes 1t will not. Therefore, let me tell you of a way to get the dog to you that seldom or never fails. Stoop down, face him, speak his name gently, and hold out vour hand. This method is especial y effective with puppies or dogs not yet grown accustomed to new masters.
 Next, take your dog in leash, either in the house or on the street. A leash known as q leather lead is preferable. As he runs ahead of you, tighten the lead and com mand. Come. Spot"
 Do not be disappointed if he does not stop instantly and come to you. The probability is that he will keep on tugging. Give q quick pull back to the leash, repeating the com mand Come, Spot" Speak firmly but not roughly. When he does come. pat him on the head and speak endearingly. This is his re- ward.
 After he has learned to stop and come at your command, begin training him to stay on your side

effort to halt swiftly sagging prices. the board now offers to keep its cotton off the market for a year. It would do so on condt- dition that 10 cotton states fulfill crop destruction campaign that would reduce the supply by at least 100000 bales.
 Destruction of third of the cotton, the board believes. would more than justify itself by high CT prices for the remainder of the crop. Four million bales at cur rent prices woulud bring around $150,0O0,O00. The board hopes to get prices back to where 100000 bales would sell for more than double that quantity now.
 Chairman James C. Stone, after announcing the boards proposal went to wrestling match, then to bed. Usually he works at his office late at night.
 Many southern cotton men be. lieve the plan will not work. Royal Meeker, an associate of Irving Fisher, Yale economist, was of the same opinion.
 Meeker said there were two weaknesses: Lack of cooperation among growers and faulty econ- omic reasoning in attempting to control production instead of con- trolling marketing.
 Stone and other members of the board have shown in discussions of farm board problems that they realize the very weaknesses spok- en of by Meeker at New Haven. But the board felt that tn cotton emergency was so extreme that the chance must be taken.
 Carl Williams, snowy-haired member of the board of cotton. expressed his associates view.
