 Conditions Are Terrible
 Press reports as to conditions in the Midwest due to the Spring drought have all been conservative, declared MT. Brewster. Wheat was literally burned up, and grass on the range lands suffered the same fate. Sections of the afflicted areas have literally been turned into desert land and thousands of resi- dents will have to be removed to other sections.
 The Federal Government is al- eeady at work giving relief to the stricken districts Aid will have to be forthcoming for a long period. Not only was the country dried up by the drought, but vegetation was consumed by swarms of grasshop- pers and Mormon crickets. The conditions over a vast region are really terrible MT. Brewster said.
 MT. Brewster will remain here for the next two or three days to confer with Gov. Troy. He plans now to go by plane to Yakutat and rejoin the North Star there.
 He and Mrs. Brewster will pro- ceed to Seward aboard that vessel and continue on it to Nome.

Grigsby Tops Off Game by Stealing Two Bases in
 Diving Fashion

In close and thrilling" five inning combat last night, the Capitols sunk Pu1len's Navy. nosing out by score of to 4. The win ming score was showed over in the last of the fifth inning largely through the prowess of Mel Grigs- by as base runner.
 Mel singled, made it safely to second on a swan dive, and came into third on half-erect split. He scored from there when Iverson smacked a grounder to Nelson at first and Mel beat the throw to the plate. Then both teams adjourned to third base to complete the de- pletion of keg of cold beer which was paid for by the losers.
 Shaw's homer put him in line for a job on some City League club as did Ralph Martins work at short stop. It was a real ball game and the prospective challengers to the winners better bring along some heavy artillery for the engage ments.

As the cattle are driven In from

There they become stew beef OF

Experts employed by the relief ad-
ministration have supervision over

purpose of giving work to idle hands
and preparing Winter food for the
needy.
Georgia, typical Of other Southern
States in the relief canning projects
has nine plants which employ about
5000 people. An average plant ha!
the capacity for canning about Isl
head of cattle daily. All told, Georgis
has l03 900 relief cows-which means

yard and spade up some beds for
flowers and vegetables. Then she
went in the cabin and came out with
some sandwiches She called, Ma
thaniel! Nate?" And Pop laughed
and said he guessed the boy was BASH
full, but would be in bye and bye.
Nate dug his toes further into the
dirt and resisted the urge to answer
their summons. 1t really wasn't the
call of food so much as the desire to
help Pop plant those seeds and little
plants he'd seen Matte bring out
from her seemingly inexhaustible
doWry. Nate had always dreamed
of having a garden by their cabin.
All afternoon he watched the little
slim figure of Matte and the tall, lank
figure of Pop performing Herculean
tasks of cleaning up the cabin. BY
late afternoon the clothes were all
gathered in. the windows washed and
white curtains hung. Nate watched
like a homesick prodigal from afar,
but he was still determined that he
wouldn't go back.
He was going to be faithful to his
own poor little Nav" He'd sleep
here tonight, and in the morning
he'd be on his way, never to return.
Where was Rags? :. Why! there he
was, down by the cabin door. The
rascal had returned home after a day
of scouting in the timber!
Nate whistled softly, but for once
Rags didn't come. He just lay there
and watched the cabin door. waiting
for his supper. Nate had never felt
so alone There was something else
tantalizing him, too. Gradually
he realized what it was. The odor OF
cooking from the cabin!
Not cooking such as Nate had
known, but savory smells of roast ham,
fresh bread, pumpkin pie. Nate be-
gan to cry into his folded arms. All
his resentment and hatred were gone,
in their place great longing.
When Pop and Matte called him
at supper time, Nate got up and ap-
preached the cabin-on dragging feet
at first and then with quickening
step. He picked up an armload of
wood as he passed the woodpile and
took it to the wood box behind the
freshly blackened cook stove. before
he looked shyly at Matte and said:
"Hello-Ma!"
