Farmer Profits
 From Effort to
 Cure Hay Fever

LYONS, Neb., Aug. 14.--His at tempt to cure hay fever made J. J. Lydivk prosperous.
 Twenty-seven years ago, doctors advised him to. go to the mountains for his ailment. Get out under the trees, they said, get some air. But Lydick couldn't go.
 Instead, he planted wide shell terbelt of trees around his 240- acre farm. Friends chided him for wasting land.
 But in 1886 the trees and bushes caught snow and conserved mois- ture. His potatoes yielded 200 bush els to the acre and his corn as high as 40 bushels while neighbC>ng farms were stricken by drought.
 Now, because of what he did for his hay fever, Lydivk's farm is worth double that of nearby tracts.

The probability that the fliers are safe somewhere in the Arctic wastes between Alaska and the North Pole has been seen here.
 The latest reports from Point Barrow indicate that a dense fog is still hanging over the Alaskan Arctic coast.
 Men in close touch with the flight stated unofficialy that the plane must be grounded by lack of fuel. They believe also that the fliers may have lost their bearings but have landed with some gasoline re- maining.
 The observers said that Levane- visky could easily obtain his posi- tion by use of a radio direction loop because his position is close to the top of the world, thus giving him wide range of powerful stations on which to tune. He might be able to

 He peered into my dufflebags with a wicked eye. His face dropped when nothing dropped out but 8 bottle of Scotch and a Rhode Island hen which I am carrying with me to insure fresh eggs no matter how far wander from civilization. Finally he gave me an OK card.
