Michael hurry, one of Hanford's
earliest settlers, died of apoplexy early

that he was widower and was born
in Ireland, coming to the United States

newick where Father Joda will have
charge of the burial services.

Dairymen Are
In On Benefit
Payment Plans
WASHINGTON, IDAHO AND ORE
CON MEN APPROVE OF
REDUCTION

Washington dairymen, together With
producers of northern Idaho and Ore
gon, overwhelmingly approved in prin-
ciple the federal governments plan to
reduce dairy production 10 to 20 per
cent in return for benefit payments
paid from processing tax, at two
day conference held in Portland, Ore
gon, April 8 and 10, according to word
received by Waldo w, Skuse, county
agent. After producers had adopted the
committee report 106 to 10, the entire
gathering of producers, distributors and
cooperative representatives vote
unanimously to petition President
Roosevelt to put a tax on oleomarger-
inc as an additional protection and
aid to the dairy industry.
The committee, based on the relative
dairy production of the states repre-
sented included five Washington, four
Oregon and two Idaho representatives.
The report was as follows:
l. We recommend the adoption of
some production control program.
2. We recommend that no plan OF
production control be received by the
dairy farmers of this country which
is not based upon a compensatory tax
upon oleomargerine sufficient to pre-
vent shifts to this product as sub
stitute for butter.
8. We recommend as a health mea-
sure the elimination of diseased cattle,
the cost to be borne by the proper
state and federal authorities.
4. We approve the governments rec
concentrations for elimination of cattle
reacting to tuberculosis, Bangs disease
mastitis or other diseases providing
that the funds for this eradication
program do not come from Tie pro-
cessing tax upon the dairy industry.
S. We recommend three-year period
for the purpose of determining pro-
ducer's base rather than a tWo-yea1
base.
6. We recommend the expenditure OF
a reasonable sum for consumer educa-
ton of the use of dairy products, funds
to come from the processing tax. This
educational program is to be carried or
through existing agencies where pos
sible.
7. We recommend that the govern
ment's suggestion Of percentage OF re-
duction for production control be ap
proved.
s. We recommend that the govern
nlent's suggested program OF assess
ments for benefit payments be ap
proved and that such assessments sha
not exceed the cost of said benef
payments and the cost of administer
ing the plan.
The resolution addressed to Pres1
dent Roosevelt read, Whereas, olec
margarine is seriously threatening tn
economic stability of the dairy indus
try in particular and all agricultul
of the nation as we'll, and thus vital
affecting the welfare of more tina
100000 farm homes, therefore,
"Be it resolved that we, the 500 rel
resentatives of the 100000 dairymen
the states of Oregon, Washington ar
Idaho, assembled at Portland, Orego
to consider steps for the purpose
solving the dairy problem, respectful
urge and request you as President
the United States to use your intluen
to correct this situation by the appl
cation of tax on margarine and In
ported oils and fats"

POETIC PHRASES
EVOLVED BY MEN
IN PRISON L

II the talk Of a gangster and the
words of a poet were scrambled, 1t
is hard to say which would yield
the larger number of poetic phrases.
Does this sound as though written
in Jest? A list of slaLg terms used
in prison, published in American
Speech, offers many a gem for col
lectors of poetic figures; diamonds
In the rough, they might be called.
Leaving aside the question whether
these are genuine specimens of prison
slang-and some of them sound as
though they may not be found out
side the covers of a crime novel-it
is Instructive to observe how faith
full to the muse of poetry is much
that the pickpocket, the swiLdler or
the bank robber says in the course
Of his trade.
One of the examples compiled by
J.. Louis Kuetha, of Johns Hopkins
University library, is the word
tears for pearls. There is as much
poetry in this as in such an image
from Shakespeare as "Those are
pearls that were his eyes, Another
term from the cells is sunshine"
meaning gold. The phrase "last

Gluten Meal for Poultry

Results of experiments at Cor
nell university indicate that corn
gluten meal may be used to a on
siderable extent In poultry feeds,
provided 1t Is properly combined
with other feeds. One-half the pro-
tein requirements of laying hens
may well be made up of corn glu-
ten feed, with the other half sup
piled by meat scrap. Hens fed in
this way laid just as heavily as hens
fed on ratIons containing meat
scrap as the only source of protein.
For growing chicks, gluten feed
gave good results when combined
with wheat middlings and wheat
bran, along with 10 per cent dried
skimmilk. If meat scrap were used,
along with the gluten feed, the per
cent of skimmilk could be reduced
to rs. The chicks made good
growth on rations of both types

MAY YET HAVE
NEW CALENDAR
Less Antipathy to Change in
Measure of Time.

Back in the days when monarchs
yer all that the word implies, Au-
gustus Caesar added a day to Au-
gust, the month of his birth, to put
Ii on a par with July, which com
memorates julius Caesar. 1t would
scarcely be worth while to estimate
the cost of that act of vanity during
the last 1912 years. Even the en-
ergy spent by calendar reformers in
trying to correct this and other ir-
Irregularities in the measurement of
time is considerable. But it is worthy
of note that persistent efforts are
still being made to substitute for the
Roman calendar a more systematic
measure of time.
Interest in this subject is attested
by the fact that 20 nations have ap-
pointed committees TO confer with
the League of Nations regarding it.
The Eastern Orthodox church, with
a membership of 140,000,0O0 persons.
recently endorsed the so-called world
calendar. It's action Is especially
significant because much Of the op-
position to calendar reform has come
from churches and other organiza-
tons that oppose the shifting of sig
nlficant historical dates. If opposi-
ton from these sources is over
come, the difficulties Of securing a
new calendar will be greatly mini
mixed.
Adoption of a 13-month calendar
now seems to be out of the question.
Most of the reformers appear to be
swinging to the improved 12-month
calendar of 1854 days plus one year
day that would not be placed in any
month. Under this plan the year can
be divided into equal quarters, each
containing precisely 13 weeks. Each
quarter would begin with a month
containing 81 days, and would con-
tain two other months of 30 days
each. Every month would contain
26 working days, thus eliminating
most of the irregularities between
the months so far as business sta
tistics are concerned.
In view of the fact that the solar

Mankind Not Ready to
Give Up individuality

If we were all only as different
and individual in our opinions and
our behavior as the science of Grim
inology show us to be in u thumb
prints! Yet we are oft accused Of
being entirely too homogeneous and
mass conscious. In political excite
ments are we not often told we are
sheeplike? And there, plain as the
nose on your face, is your thumb
print, no two of which have been
found to be duplicated in the whole
world. Nature al turn out billions
of beings, with a quirk here and a
whorl there on the ball of the thumb
that can't be repeated, yet we think
we know people who are "as like as
peas In the pod" Perhaps on min
ute inspection, shades of difference
in tastes, distates, pendants and
modes of thought would always be
found, but that has not been as In
fallibly proven as In the thumb
print made a matter of record.
Some one has lately been advocating
that the whole adult population be
thumb-printed in order to make
identification complete In a question
of doubt; but there does not yet
seem to be a sufficient justification
for such RECOMMENDATION. There is
still enough retlcence and desire not
to be singled out In the public eye
at least the official eye-to make a
more or less incognito existence hap
pier. The absence of privacy of the
goldfish has never been envied.-St.

WhoAre You?
By RUBY HASKINS ELLIS.

THIS name has been prominent In
L the annals Of England and Ire
land for several generations. 1t Is
believed that it originated from the
Norman form "de Jouy." The first
to bear the name of Joy was undoubt-
edly characterized by his exhilaration
Of spirits-his Joy in living. How
ever, the name has from time to
time been confused with the name
Jay, and several grants Of arms have
been made to various individuals
bearing the names JOY, Jay. or Jaye
in England. The coat here illustrated
was granted to one Jaye OF London
and Norfolk in 1901. This family was
seated In the manor of Holverton in
County Norfolk for 500 years. The
name was later spelled Joy.
The common ancestor of most OF
the Joys of America was Thomas,
who was born in Norfolk about 1910.
He was among the early New Eng
land settlers and by 1886 was estab-
lished as an architect and builder
In Boston, Mass. In his new home
he found q ready outlet for his tai
ents and became very active figure
IN the colony He was a land owner
and q member of the Ancient and
Honorable Artillery Of Boston, as was
his son Samuel. Thomas later moved
to bingham, Mass, where he lived
for q time.
Descendants Of this family are now
tcattered throughout the country.

TELECRAPHERS'
Union DenOunces Plan To
Merge w. u. and
Postal

Washington, D. C. (ILNS)-Reviv-
al of telegraph merger talk has
brought out broadside Of protest
from the Commercial Telegraphers'
Union of North America.
Apparently every interested group
except the employees are in favor of
the merger" said Frank B. Powers,
international president, in replying to
copyrighted story of the United
Press.
"On June 80, 1929, the average num-
ber of telegraph employees as reported
to the interstate commerce commits
sion was 92,95S, and the estimated
number for June 80, 1888, was $1,000.
We submit the employers have suffer-
ed enough by the loss of nearly 40 900
jobs, or 40 per cent unemployment.
"Now it appears that the /. T. & T.
(owners of the Postal) and the A. T.
& I. (owners of the w. w. have
agreed that there is too much waste
and duplication in the kilograms, and
that the government should waive the
antitrust act and permit merger.
Waste of course means that there
are too many Offices and employees Ito
permit of the usual pre-depression
profts).
"We believe there are sufficient
anti-merger senator's and representa-
tives in congress to block any at
tempt to legalize this scheme to per-
nit telegraph monopoly.
"It goes further than a tele-
graph monopoly, however. 1t will
mean monopoly by the Ameri-
can Telegraph and Telephone Co.
of all telegraphs, telephones,
radio, cables, and broadcasting
companies, to say nothing of
directly or indirectly owned in
terests in the manufacturing line,
such as the Western Electric Co.
with proper government super
vision, we believe a merger is unnec-
essary from the standpoint of even
the stockholders. Pleas of poverty on
the part of one company in particular,
the Postal, cannot be given credence
because of it's extravagant manage
ment for the past four years. l am
informed that the recent shake-up of
Postal officials will bring about saw
ing of 100000 a year in salaries
alone"

committee of the house, for many
years has been hooked up with the
big shipbuilding interests of the East,

1t is worthy of note that neither

precious hides by going on board a
war vessel with view of helping to
operate it in time of war.

By JOSEPH A. WISE

Chicago (ILNS) - William Ran
dolph Hearst, publisher Of two Chi
cago daily newspapers, is resorting
to one of his old-time favorite tricks
of promoting a war scare to extri-
cate himself from bad situation and
regain lost circulation.
The Hearst newspapers are shrek
ing daily of probable war with
Japan. ''To arms!" screeches Hearst.
Build more battleships! Give the mu-
nitions manufacturers a break! Be-
ware of the Yellow Peril!
Hearst has joined hands with the
sword rattlers of Japan, the jingoes
of France, the madmen Of Moscow
and the international war mongers to
create worldwide psychology of
fear. 1t does not matter to the rattle
brain Hearst that his tactics may
lead to the collapse of civilization
just so long as he can increase the
circulation of his nationwide chain
of daily newspapers and allied pub
lications.
Flip-Flopped on MIRA
Hearst got himself in bad by at
first supporting the national recov-
cry act and then turning complete
fip-fop and vehemently denouncing
it when he found that his own pocket
book and the pocketbooks of his big
business burglar friends were threat
ened. He was willing to have every
body else put under codes provided
his own OK was not gored.
When Hearst learned that a decent
newspaper code would cost him some
thing he began yelling that such an
outrageous proceeding would be ar
invasion of the freedom of the press
Hearst had all of his newspapers
shouting for the six-hour day few
years ago. Today he is aaginst the
six-hour day. He boasts publicly OF
the money he has made even during
