Calgary Resident
Diagnoses Depression

The following sad confession is at
tributed to a Calgary man and has
gone. the rounds of the newspapers,
eventually bringing up in the Winni-
peg Free Press, which collects such
experiences with ardor. This is the
confession:
"There seems to be so much talk
about our so-called prosperity, be-
lieve it is my duty to write my views
on same and help to analyze the Sit
uation as far as possible so that we
can make up our minds that we had
oughta change our ways of living and
so forth.
IT have taken my own case for in
stance. I see my own mistakes and
many others have acted likewise. 1
bought a car instead of a farm, and
it is worn out, but the farm I fig
ured on is still OK. bought a radio
instead of COW, and the radio gives
static instead of milk.
II am feeding five hounds which
answer to the names of Red, Red
Wing, Slobber Jake and Bayrum, in
stead Of five pigs.
II had our piano tuned instead of
the well cleaned out.
IT spent all my cash in 1928 and
used my credit in 1929 and traded up
my future wages on installments in
1890, so hard times caught me in bad
shape last fall
IF had spent my last $40 for flour
and meat instead of gas and oil, I
would have been OK.
Write or phone if you hear of any
relief from the government coming
down my way. I am willing to be a
liberal or a conservative for a few
weeks if that will help any"

Hungarian Partridge
Eats Few Farm Crops

The Hungarian, or European Gray,
partridge in the United States Is not
particularly harmful to crops, studies
of 80 birds by the Biological Survey,
United States Department of Agricul-
ture, indicate.
In the fall and winter these birds
feed largely on green leaves, grains OF
wheat, corn, oats, barley, and seeds OF
ragWeed, foXtail grass, and bindWeeo.
The cultivated grains seem to be picked
up mostly in stubble fields, and the
investigators believe this indicates no
injury to growing crops The studies
were made in all months of the year
by Leon Kelso.
Contents of the crops and gizzards
of the birds examined showed that
animal food made up per cent of
their food. The young birds, in par
ticular, displayed liking for grass
hoppers, beetles and other injurious
insects
This partridge has been introduced
into numerous North American local
tiles and has become we'll established
in some of them, particularly In
southwestern Canada, Washington,
southwestern Wisconsin, southwestern
Michigan, and northwestern Ohio. AS
it is comparatively new bird in this
country it's habits are interesting to
sportsmen ornithologists, and farmers.

Find Difficulty in
Locating Corner Stakes

Washington east of the Cascade
mountains was SO worthless with it's
vast expanse of shifting sand and dry
sage brush that early surveyors did
not even bother to chain distances or
drive in stakes, M. M. Wiehl of White

Wiehl, who has operated ferry at
White Bluffs since 1902 and owned it
since 1918, homesteaded on the bench

and set stakes for correct boundary

GARNER READY
TO TRADE ON
HIS MEASURE
Aid Bill Passes House, but
Has Little Chance to
Become Law.

BE- United Press
WASHINGTON, June s.-Speaker
John N. Garner was reported ready
today to accept a compromise with
the administration on his $780,
100000 unemployment relief pro-
gram. forced through the house
Tuesday by a thirty-four-vote mar
gin.
Although the Democratic steam
roller won a majority of 2l6 to 1872
for the Garner bill, and smothered
President Hoover's own relief pro-
gram, the Speaker conceded his
measure has no chance Of becom-
ing law. The administration is op-
posed unalterably to its proposed
billion dollar bond issue for public
works.
After a conference with Presi-
dent Hoover today, Representative
Tilson rep, Conn., predicted the
President would veto the Garner
bill in case it passes the senate.
But I certainly doubt whether
the bill in anything like its present
form ever reaches the White
House" Tilson said.
The burden Of working out a
compromise rests with the senate.
AS a first step. Democratic Leader
Joseph T. Robinson will ask that
the Wagner bill. authorizing the
reconstruction corporation to loan
$500 900. 900 10 the states for relief,
be taken up Immediately after pass
age Of the pending economy meas
ure.
Acceptable to Hoover
It is believed that the Wagner
bill could be passed with little de-
lay. as it is understood to be accept
able to President Hoover. And it is
thought that Garner would agree to
it. Thus at least $500, 900 900 of
funds for direct relief would be
made available before congress ad-
journs.
Passage Of the Garner bill by the
house was accompanied by bitter
Republican protests against gag
rule" tactics. The Democratic ma
iority first pushed through a special
rule for consideration of the bill.
limiting debate to three hours and
precluding possibility of Republican
amendments. This was adopted with
the aid of Republican progressives.
The Democrats then proceeded, in
record time. to pass their bill, one
Of the most controversial of the
/ present session.
Twenty-one Republicans voted for
the Garner bill Ten Democrats de-
serted their party leadership to vote
against it.
