The agricultural land settlement
trend today has turned decisively
into the Pacific Northwest and
western Montana, according to r.
w. DeGuire of st. Paul, executive
assistant of the Northern Pacific
Railway, who was in Kennewick
last week on periodical business
trip over the company's lines.
This favored section of the Unit
ed States, he said, is commanding
the attention of worthy farmers in
may sections of the country who
are seeking new locations. He
pointed to the experiences of his
railroads agricultural department
in locating settlers in the last year
as showing the attraction this area
holds for farmers who are dissitis-
fled with their present locations.
The prosperity of the Northwest
country, he said, is certain to feel
a quickening stimulus as result
of this population increase of. de-
sirable settlers.
"The agricultural department. of
the Northern Pacific met splen-
did response in the last year in di-
rection of intending farmers into
western Montana and the Pacific
Northwest" Mr.. DeGuire contin-
ued. always there are many sub
stantial farmers in search of bet

broke away from their mornings,
the excellent agricultural condi-
tions in this section gave the urge
to come west, and it has been easy
to interest them in the irrigated

Washington and the country west
of the Cascades.
e Probably no area in the country
has this year been fevored with

that the many of these settlers are

At The ORPHEUM
JOE e. BROWN HAS RlOTOuS
ROLE AS 6-DAY BIKE R1DEF

Joe E. Brown, the wide mouthed
comedian. will come to the Orpheum
theatre Friday and Saturday as a
e Day Bike Rider" a First National
production that is said to be the big
gest rib ticker in which Joe has yet
appeared.
The story, by Earl Baldwin, is
crammed with hilarious situations,
side-splitting gags. romance and
heart throbs, and in addition carries
enough thrills to make a melo-
drama.
Joe as the village wise cracker and
local Don Juan. becomes jealous of a
professional trick bicycle rider. and
tells the neighbors that he will
show" them by going to the big
city and winning the great six day
race.
He takes his pal along with him
and the two get jobs as messenger
boys in order to eat until they get
the big prize for the winning team.
Joe sees his rival, imagines his girl
has eloped with him, starts a battle
and is thrown into Jail on the very
day the race Is scheduled to start.
His experiences behind the bars.
before he Is bailed out, are plenty
amusing. but are nothing compared
to the ridiculous situations in the
race after he gets into it. This Is
not only riotously funny. but carries
some of the biggest thrills ever
shown on the screen.

TOBACCO GROWERS
VOTE FOR CONTROL
Kerr-Smith Act Is Given
Overwhelming Majority
Throughout South.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
An overwhelming majority in favor
of continuing the Kerr Smith tobacco
control act for another year was
recorded today in incomplete returns
from a poll of the Nations tobacco
growers by the Agricultural Adjust
ment Administration.
After surveying early returns from
their second crop referendum, A. A. A.
officials said they believed the COM
pulsory program would be applied to
tobacco again next year. Last week
cotton growers voted heavily in favor
of continuing the Bankhead control
act.
Under the Kerr-Smith act, farmers
controlling at least rs per cent of the
total tobacco acreage must approve
the proposal to make it effective. The
percentages thus far reported were
we'll above that figure in virtually
every instance.
Figures compiled for Virginia by
John r. Hutcheson, director of the
v. P. I. Extension Division, showed
approximately SO per cent Of the fiue
cured, 80 per cent of the fire cured
and SO per cent of the hurley growers
were favorable to the act Early re-
turns from the sun-cured growers
showed about 76 per cent in favor of
crop restrictions.
In Kentucky, officials estimated s5
per cent of the hurley acreage would
be voted for further crop restriction.
In "a counties of the Kentucky hurley
belt, 26,56l growers voted for the act
and 2,225 against.
