EnjOined His COuntrymen to Be Good Workers
 and Soldiers

Rome, Feb 1.-UP )-Strength counts in international relations, Premier Benito Museolini said to- day, enjoining his fascists to be strong and his fellow countrymen tot be workers and soldiers at the same time. His arms akimbo, clad in his corporal's uniform with new type of blue gray helmet. Mussolini shouted to q great gath ering of his mon: "To-day's celebration brings our minds back to my 'armored tank speech, namely, the Italian people must be workers and soldiers at the same time. Tt is more than ever true to-day that in relations between nations 1t is strength that counts. You represent our strong will, 10 translate into acts tho determination to make our Father land strong and big"
 In his famous "armored tank" speech of last August, at the end of the army maneuvers in the BO- logna area, Mussolini said: War can break out at any moment. No ono in Italy wants 1t, but the idea Is floating 'n the air. We must become a military nation, even a inilitrnstic one--cven, might say, Il warlike one" He said that the Nazi revolt in Austria laat July, then still vivid in Europeans' minds, created a situation akin to that in 1914 and might have Tod to war had not Italy sent troops ito the frontier.

CENSUS DIRECTS ATTENTION
TO WOODLOT IMPORTANCE

The Importance of timber pro-
ducts sold from farm woodlots is
strikingly shown by u. S. forest
service survey of 1880 United States
census figures recently completed.
For the year 1929 the value OF
form timber products sold was
$242, 042, 245 which nearly equaled
the value of the nations tobacco
crop for the same year and was
more than Is per cent of the value
of the national wheat crop.
The value of farm timber pro-
ducts cut in Oregon in 1929 was
$3,908,087 and in Washington 49,
262,215. It is pointed out that in
Oregon this represented nearly four
per cent of the total lumber return
for the year 1929 and in Washing
ton roughly two per cent. In Ore
gon in 1929 there were 55,153 farms,
including 16,548.O0O acres, and III
Washington 10000 farms, with 49,
533, 900 acres. The average Oregon
farm has 81 acres in woodlot and

SAYS CARING FOR CLOTHES
WILL KEEP FIGURES TRIM

Nothing contributes more to that
trim appearance desired by all wo-
men than neat clothes that fit well
and are well cared for, points out
Miss Martha Lowery, State College
extension clothing specialist. Skirts
that bulge in the back, wrinkles
that pull a garment out of line and
sleeves that are out of shape at the
elbow, all add the impression of
pounds and years to the figure.
Keeping clothes neat and trim
requires thought and care while
they are worn, as well as careful
cleaning and pressing. Dresses,
coats or suits that are thrown on
chairs, hung on nails, or allowed to
slump to the floor in a closet, soon
show the result of careless handl-
ing. Each time garment is taken
off, it should be hug in place care
fully. The hanger should cores
pond to the line of the shoulder. A
padded hanger is especially good
for certain clothes that show every

Livestock Owners
Fight Grazing Ban
Voice Protest Against Proposal
In Resolution; Sportsmen
Against Plan.

Sportsmen and livestock opera
tors OF this county are lining up
their forces against interests pro-
posing to eliminate livestock graz
ing in all national and state forests
The middle of January the Okan-
ogan county Pomona Grange pas
sed a resolution hitting at the pro-
posal. Similar action has been
taken by the sportsmen's cclubs Of
Omak and Okanogan, whose men,
bers have indicated that they do
not believe the wild life of the for
ests to be endangered by livestock
grazing, as long as it is controlled.
Grange Resolution
The resolution passed by the
Grange follows:
Whereas certain interests are adj
vocating the closing of all national
forests and state forest land to the
grazing of livestock; and
Whereas, livestock pro duction
constitutes one of the leading agri-
cultural enterprises in the state of
Washington and Of Okanogan coun-
ty,
Therefore, be it resolved that the
Pomona Grange, Okanogan county,
in session, this day, January IL.
1885, go on record opposing this
movement and condemning the
method being used in securing sup
port of such action.
The claims OF the proponents Of
this action are largely without foun-
dalton, which has been demonstraV-
eded by officials of the United States
Forestry Service and forestry au-
thorities. Especially, do we con-
denim the allegations of these pro-
ponents that such action is neces-
sary for the maintenance of a COW
ering Of forage for game and the
production of forestry products.
To permit the forest to return to
wild" state would be to increase
the fire hazards which are great
even now with the heavy under
growth, largely kept down by live
stock grazing.
Be it further resolved that copy
of this resolution be sent to each
and every Grange in the state of
Washington and be released to the
press.

likan, chairman; o. T. Peterson, A.
