ington and Howard men that he
discouraged were good-looking
enough to start a rumpus around
these two towns, mebbe he's right
to tell 'em not to come up here.
Last fall, on the day of the Ne
ka-Minnesota game at Lin
coin, some of the campus folks
were at my house listening in via
the radio waves. When Minnesota
was pushed back onto its own six
inch line or yard line or whatever
the distance was, you could have
heard a pin drop. Warren Girls
som, with a sandwich in either
hand, was looking worried, Pete
Thatcher with a sanwich in either
hand was looking worried, vii
Parker, with sandwich in either
hand, was looking worried, Bobbie
Durant, with a sandwich in either
hand, was looking worried. Bootely
P. Brown, with a couple of sand
witches, was looking very, very
worried. Guess I'll get the gang
together for a radio party for the
Washington-Minnesot game on
September "a. With that support
the Gophers ought to go to town,
Ell?
P. S.-As soon as the Gophers
start practice sessions I'll have
some football news for you foot

FARM PRICES DROP
AS CROPS IMPROVE
Fall Rains Make Produc-
ton Outlook Better Than
Recent Months

Washington, Nov. 5-Prices of farm
products showed a slight decline
amounting to three points on the IN
dex during the month ended OCTOBER
Is, the Bureau of Agricultural Eco
nomics reported today. The price
index in mid-October stood at III,
and is now IL points above year
ago. The decline during the month
was attributed to the fall rains with
consequent improvement in late crops,
pastures, and dairy production pro-
spects.
All groups of farm products de-
clined from their September levels,
with the exception of chickens and
eggs which made a slight seasonal
rise Net decreases in the price in
dex, by groups of commodities, includ
ed truck crops down % points; meat
animals down 3; grain and cotton
down Q; dairy products which usual
ly rise at this season also were down
3 points. Chicken and egg prices rose
S points.
AS compared with year ago, mid
October prices were still materially
higher this fall. Grain prices, for ex-
ample, were u points higher; fruit %;
truck crops IL; cotton 10; dairy pro-
ducts II points higher Prices of meat
animals and poultry were points
lower this October than last, due to
heavier sales.
Wheat was one of the few individ-
ual products that rose during the
month ending in mid-October Farm
ers were receiving at country points
an average of $1.07 per bushel, as
compared with IS cents a year ago
This was the highest price recorded
since January 1880.
Corn prices this fall are reversed
from the normal situation in respect
to their geographic variation Ordi-
narily corn is somewht cheaper in
the heart of the Corn Belt than it is
in outlying regions. This year, how
ever, prices in the western Corn Belt
were about cents higher than the
national average, due to the inroads Of
the drought. Local market prices were
lowest in the Pacific, Southern, and
South Atlantic States, where the crop
was relatively good and supplies were
available from foreign sources at
coastal markets.
The average prices of commodities
bought by farmers stood at an index
or III in mid-October, being points
higher than the year previous. Feed
prices, although down slightly dur
ing the month, were still 81 points
higher than year ago.

U.S.. FARM EXPORTS
NOW ON INCREASE
Value of $766, 3O4, 900
Past Fiscal Year Repre-
sent Is Percent Rise

Washington, Nov. 5-Agricultural
exports from the United States dur
ing the twelve months ended June 80,
1886, reached a total value of $780,
100000, a gain of Is percent over the
exports for 1934-35 which were valued
at $668,713,000, the Bureau of Agri-
cultural Economics said today.
There was also a gain of Is per cent
in volume of exports during 1855.
The volume index of United States
farm exports stands at 81 compared
with an index of 81 in 1934-35. The
five-year period of 1909-14 equals 100.
This increase in volume, the first for
a fiscal year since 1892, is account
ed for by increased export sof cot
ton, fruit and tobacco. Exports of
meats, wheat, and several other
grains-the groups most seriously af-
fected by the drought of 1934-drop-
ped to low levels.
Lint cotton made up 81 percent of
the total value of American agricul-
tural exports in 1886. Total ex-
ports reached 6,397 900 bales compar-
ed with 5,066,000 bales the year be-
fore. Japan continued as the most
important export outlet absorbing 25
per cent of the total. Exports to the
United Kingdom and Germany were
more than doubled.
Leaf tobacco made up 10 per cent
of the value of the 1856 exports,
the total volume exported reaching
4175S9,O00 pounds compared with 353,-
$4,000 pounds in 1934-35. Four-fifths
of the exports were of the bright flue
cured type, most of the latter going
to the British market.
Fruits were another bright spot in

Petersburg, Va, Oct. 5-Alarmed at
the national increase in automobile
fatalities and injuries and determined
to make U. S. No. l a leader in
great safety movement, officials of
the u. S. No. 1 Highway Association
met here recently and resolved to
make their highway the safest in
America.
This highway, Americas first, all
paved, North-South route and today
the only continuous Maine-to-Florida
road, has already taken great steps
in making its lanes safe. 1t possesses
more three and four-lane road today
than any other North-South route.
With this wonderful background the
Association will open a campaign to
make the entire route of extra lanes.
The aim is for four-lane highways
with center spread of grass dividing
the two lines of traffic

the 1885 export picture, the out
standing increases being in fresh APP
pies, pears, lemons, 3'anges and
canned fruit, most of the shipments
going to the British market.
Exports of pork products continued
on the downward trend which began
in 1925. Short American supplies and
relatively high prices, due mainly to
the 1894 drought, overshadowed the
other developments in foreign mar
kets largely responsible for the long
time downward tendency.
Short domestic supplies due to the
drought were also the most import
ant factor in reducing exports of
grains. Wheat exports, including
flour. amounted to only 1890 900
bushels.

Farmers Agar, Warned OF
Selling Cotton Too Cheap

Raleigh, No. 5-Farmers were warn
ed toda yagainst selling their cotton
at "docked" prices by M. G. Mann,
general manager of the North Caro-
lima Cotton Growers Cooperative As
ISOLATION.
Due to excessive rain during the
early picking season, many farmers
have been led to believe that the
grade of the State cotton crop this
year would be inferior" Mr.. Mann
said, land certain spectators over
the State are taking advantage of
this misrepresentation to buy cotton
for less than its real value"
Quoting government reports show
ing that more than 80 per cent of the
crop ginned to date is running mid
ding or better, Mr.. Mann urged farm
erS to refuse to sell their cotton I'M
til it has been clasSed under super
vision of government-licensed clas-
ser and they know as much about it's
value as the man who is buying it.
Instead of being 'docked', most of
our farmers should get premium for
their cotton this year." Mr.. Mann said,
as he pointed to figures showing that
nine out of every ten bales ginned in
the State so far have been 1916 or
longer and as such command a pre-
MUM when sold comparatively.
Inviting farmers to take advantage
of the facilities of the Cotton AsSo-
citation to have their cotton graded
and stapled under the supervision of
a government-licensed classer and to
have a price quoted on it, Mr.. Mann
said: with full knowledge of your
grades and staples and with our price
tucked in your pocket, you can then
go to the local buyer or mill and ask
for price, knowing that if you are
offered more on the outside than we
quoted you can get your Identical
cotton back and sell it to the one Of
fering the most money.
This 'Re-Furchase Pool plan was
tried and tested ma small scale last
year and the results were beyond all
expectations. Out of more than 25,-
900 bales handled in this manner, the
Association was requested to sell more
than nine out of every ten bales,
while nearly all of the members who
asked for their cotton back have told
us that they received more by virtue
of having had their cotton graded by
the Association and a price given.
only recently a farmer was in my
office and told of securing a price on
a lot of cotton. Not satisfied with
what was offered, he placed it in the
Association where it was graded and
stapled and a price quoted. Armed

Dusek Is Victor

goff were the principals. The boys
whipped it up in tip top fashion
for 80 minutes with both taking
sinners on the chin, both being
hurled out Of the ring, and both
getting as mad at each other as
any two wrestlers could.
Then came the climax when
Dusek pinned Managoff's Shout
derS to the mat. At least that's
the way Referee Cyclone Burns
figured it, though the $500 fans
and Managoff saw the finish diff
ferently.
Managoff claimed his shoulders
were not pinned to the mat. The
crowd claimed the same thing.
But Referee Burns stuck to his
decision and later was forced to
flee from the ring when Managoff,
enraged no end. started after him.
1t was good entertainment for
a hot night. The supporting fea-
lures had Gino Garibaldi and

3OO~Mi|e journey
BY GEORGE A. SIMPSON

BY GEORGE A. SIMPSON
The unaccomplished 300-mile
canoe trip from the headwaterS
of the Potomac River to Wash
ington is being attempted by
four local residents. They are
Alexander Prescott, an attorney
in the tax division Of the De-
partment of Justice; his two sons,
Alexander, jr., 20, and Pickney,
16, and Paul Jackson, another
Department Of Justice attorney.
The trip has been tried before
but never completed.
With two canoes, they made
their start at the source Of the
south branch Of the Potomac at
Upper Trap, w. Va, a region in
the Allegheny Mountains known
as "Smole Hole"
In places where the water was
shallow and jutted with boulders
they were forced to carry their
canoes overland. The party slept
in caves the first two nights be-
cause Of rains.
Armed with maps from the
Interior Department and we'll
equipped for fishing, the four
expect to reach here Wednesday,
averaging 80 miles a day.
They caught trout and bass in
the same stream at Smoke
Hole" the only place in the East
where this is possible. They'll
strike the Potomac proper at
Green Springs, 10 miles east Of
Cumberland, where the north
and south branches join.
j. Leighton Count" Cornwell,
another Department of Justice
attorney, spent the first two days
with the party.
