FARMERS OUTLOOK
BRIGHTER FOR 1885

inventories of manufacturers, and
goods on merchants shelves should
help maintain the purchasing power of
the city dweller.
Farm families and those In small
towns in Washington are expected to
benefit considerably during the year
from higher prices being received for
wheat, small grains, livestock, dairy
products and some vegetables. More
cash is being released for family liv-
ing in 1885 because Of lowered inter-
est rates and debt financing by gov
ernmental agencies. Increased business
activity in consumers goods should
build new purchasing power.
Families With limited incomes can
Offset higher food prices to great
extent by planning to produce the
maximum amount Of food for family
use and by careful buying. AS the price
Of clothing has risen relatively little
during the past year, about five per
cent, some of the money budgeted for
food can be used to purchase more
clothing. The same applies to furni-
ture and household furnishings.
The relatively small increase in
building material prices and the pro-
gram of the federal housing admins
tration makes 1885 an ideal time for
improving and remodeling the house
and grounds, and repairing furnish
ings.
Dry cleaning, remodeling clothing,
food preservation, soap making, and
baking, in the home, as well as the
keeping of home accounts and paying
cash whenever possible, are other
ways of increasing the purchasing
power of the family budget.

MODERN KITCHENS
SAVE TIME, LABOR

While the old-fashioned kitchen
usually served as a combination wash
room, laundry room, general sitting
room, passage from the back to the
front of the house and place for
hanging wraps and separating the
milk, the modern kitchen is devoted
solely to the preparation and serving
of food, according to Gladys Gallup,
extension home management specialist,
Washington State College.
Whether building a new house or re-
modelling the old kitchen. the problem
is to determine the ideal size, select
the proper equipment and then group
the equipment so as to save the great
est number of unnecessary steps. #
the equipment is properly centralized,
kitchen work loses most Of it's drudgery
and saves much valuable time. ALI
working surfaces such as the stove,
table surfaces, sink and water supply
should be within six-foot radius Of
each other with no two pieces more
than 10 feet apart.
At the same time, kitchen equip
ment should be grouped to save steps
in preparing and serving the meal.
The stove, cooking supplies and uten-
sils should be grouped together Cereals,
salt, pepper, tea, coffee and other ma
terials which are constantly used at
the stove should be placed in the stove
cupboard. Frying pans and cooking
utensils should also be located near
the stove. Although they are washed
at the sink they are always used at
the stove first.
Again, kitchen equipment must be
grouped to save steps in cleaning up
the dishes and utensils and in putting
them away. The sink or table where
the dishes are washed the water sup
ply, and the dish cupboard should be
as nearly one unit as possible so that
not more than three steps are taken
in washing, drying, and putting away
the dishes. The ideal place for the
dish cupboard is above the drainboard
to the left of the sink.
1t has been found that room 10
by IL or IL by IL is convenient size
for the kitchen. Although in some
cases the farm kitchen must be larg-
err, much time and labor will be saved
if the equipment is compact and CEN
tralized

cries point to increased demand for
chicks in anticipation of an improved
poultry outlook. The improved situa-
ton has been brought about partly
by an eight per cent drop in receipts
at the four principal markets from
January to December /, 1884, COM
pared to the same period in 1888.
Washington poultrymen have some ad-
vantage in being close to large avail
able supplies of feed. Feed prices are
expected to be lower by the time new
pullets begin to lay if crop yields are
normal. Maintaining the high quality
of eggs sent to eastern markets will
help sustain the demand for Wash
ington eggs.
The fruit industry of the state has
been laboring at great disadvantage
during the past four years because of
the distance from markets and rela-
lively high transportation and other
costs, according to the bureau of ag-
ricultural economics. Increased compe-
tition from citrus fruits is focusing
more attention on distribution prob
lems With favorable weather, produc-
ton of apples, pears and cherries is
expected to be somewhat higher in
the United States this year. The trend
Of peach and grape production is
slightly downward. Only about 10 per
cent of the United States commercial
fruit crop has been exported during
the past ten years.

FAMILY LIVING TO
IMPROVE IN 1885

Washington families, both rural and

some increases in the cost Of living,

cents in March, 1888, is now worth 30

.15 RECEIVE THREAT.
IN EXTORT|ON PLOT
Eight of North Georgia's
WeaIthiest Families Are
Marked With Death.
Rv the Associated Press.


BUFORD, Ga, August PA whole
sale extortion plot, involving demands
for more than $50,000 and threats of
death to Is members Of eight of North
Georgia's wealthiest and most promi-
nent families, was under investigation
today by the United States Depart
ment of Justice.
w. A. Rorer. chief of the Atlanta
Office of the Bureau of Investigation,
Department of Justice, said in Atlanta
I'VE are investigating several extortion
notes but declined to discuss the case
further.
In each case, so far as could be
learned, the letters bore the typewrit-
ten signatures, Vigilance Committee,
Justice for Poor People" In addition
to money, lands were demanded OF
some Of those receiving the threats.
Persons Threatened.
John, Victor and Bona Allen. broth
ers, of Buford, and operators of a
large leather goods plant here, were
among those who received the letters.
Members of their families were threat
ened.
Mrs. Catherine Shadburn, of Bu-
ford, a sister of the Allen brothers,
also received a death threat. Others
who received the letters we're:
Taylor Whitley, land owner of Da-
cula, Ga.
Mr.. and, Mrs. A. J. Wayne, land
owners of Flowery Branch.
c. r. Ware, president of the First
National Bank of Lawrenceville.
Pelberton Cooley, Lawrenceville at
torney.
Similarity Of content and prepara-
ton of all the letters was reported by
several of those who received them.
The threat that your damned heart
will be shot out" was made in each of
the letters.
Believed Crazy.
In Lawrenceville, Ware said, my
guess is that the person who sent the
letters is pretty mean and about half
crazy.
Il turned my letter over to the De-
partment of Justice 1t demanded
$4,000. The letter told me that the
writer-or commitIee-would shoot my
heart out if it took 10 years, if I failed
to comply with the demand"
Whitley said in Dacula he was told
that his damned heart will be shot
out" If he failed to comply with a
demand for $600-likewise i'll 10 days.
He said the letter was written en-
tirely in lower case letters, and that
there was studied bad spelling in it;
more difficult words were spelled COR

RASKOb SAYS TAX.
BAR TO RECOVERY.
Cut in Levies and Building
Costs Held Necessary to
Restore Prosperity.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, August 22.--Slice the
surplus fat of building costs and taxes,
and prosperity will take care of itself,
in the belief of John J. Raskob.
That was the substance of the eco
nomic prescription offered today in his
first interview on business matters in
many months.
Raskob, who resigned the chairman
ship of the Finance Committee Of Gen.
eral Motors Corp. to head the Demo-
cratic National Committee during the
1928 presidential campaign, sees no
reason why the wheels OF heavy in
dustry could not be made to spin as
rapidly as have, recently. the lighter
lines of business. He is now a di-
rector Of E. I. du Pont de Nemours
& Co.
Denies Capital "on Strike"
In his quiet, unemphatic way he
rejected fatty the idea that 1t is a
strike Of capital" which is impeding
recovery in capital goods lines.
You couldn't even get a wash
woman with $500 to risk it In q busi-
ness that only paid per cent" Ras-
kob said. then pointed out that if
taxes take as much as two-thirds of
the profit from an undertaking which
involves the risk Of loss anyway, even
though it made II per cent, the net
return would be only 4 per cent.
Combine lower taxes with a 20 per
cent cut in building costs, Raskob
believes, and you have the touchstone
which transforms stagnation into
prosperity.
Wage Cut Advocated.
"The building trades unions ought
to cut wages 20 per cent for the sake
of fuller pay envelope and a full
weeks work." Raskob suggested.
Some 2,500,o00 of the unemployed,
he calculated, are building trades
workers. Behind each Of these job
less workers stands a man who should
be in the steel plant, or the quarry
or the cement mill. Employ the nuild-
ing artisan and his invisible helper
also goes back on the pay roll, cutting
5000 900 from the total Of jobless en-
ployables.
The stimulation to the railroads re-
sulting from a rise in the building in
dustry might easily absorb another
half-million men, he thinks. and the
service occupations, revived by the
additional flow of wages, could soak
up the balance.

ferees turned down a similar COM
promise, offered from the Senate
side. This would modify the Senate

Without specifying a date, the COM
promise would direct the securities
commission to restrict holding COM
panies to single, integrated systems of
