Women Who Do Buying

1t is certainly to be regretted that
it is necessary to sell the idea of job
opportunities to Americans when 10,-
O0O,OCO workers are without employ
ment with twice this number depend
ant upon them, but such is the case.
For years we have heard that
"world trade means world peace"
which is as incidous piece of foreign
propaganda as has ever been fostered
on the American public.
We are told the United States is
enjoying a favorable trade balance of
a billion dollars, but the thinking man
deducts scrap iron and other war ma
terials to find the balance anything
but favorable.
We are even told that the trade
with Japan is all in our favor, but
potters know this to be an extremely
unjust statement. One dollar will pur-
chase IA hours of Japanese pottery
labor and barely over an hour of the
American clay workers time. How
can any trade be in our favor on that
basis?
Everyone knows the greatest mar
ket in the world is right here in the
United States. 1t is sad indeed that
Americans must fight for their neigh
bor's business.
If the money stays at home it means
better wages and therefore more buy
ing power which in turn creates jobs.
By taking the wage scales announced
by the League of Nations through its
international Labor Office before the
outbreak Of the war, it isn't hard to
see why the American market is the
aim of all foreign manufacturers. The
buying power is here, but it cannot
stay here unless we protect it. The
comparison of real wages follows:

A Tough School Bus

Tombstone. Arizona, THE
Town Too Tough to Die, has its
counterpart in the Dodge school
bus at Tombstone Union High
School. A 1885 1t.ton truck
with a 40-passenger body. the
Tombstone bus run lou, 900 miles
over unimproved roads and is
still very much alive.
Many of the boys and girls who
ride in the school bus think the
Dodge is just as tough as the
town itself in the days their ia
theirs like to talk about.
Tombstone, according to legend
is the frontier post where one
mayor diedIa natural death. And
there are the many stories of the
old Bird Cage theatre. still on the
main street as it was go years
ago. And there's the Crystal
Palace where bullet holes remain
as evidence of the gold mining
days.
But Tombstone now has a fine
modern school, attended by stu
dents from miles around. They
are brought to school and driven
home in the Dodge bus, which
travels 100 miles a day, much of
the route over mountain grades
and curves.
Fred Kessler, the school bus
driver, is a friend of every boy
and girl in school and has driven
the Dodge the entire 100000
miles. In all this time he has
never had even minor accident
or any mechanical trouble with
the Dodge, according to Ed. Nc
Dougall, local Dodge and Ply
mouth dealer.

SPRAY AGAINST APPLR SCAE

The usual method OF controlling
apple scab IN Delaware orchards Is
to apply series OF sprays starting
in the spring and lasting until sum
Iner This disease overWinters in the
form of spores Ia dead leaves on the
ground In the spring, the spores
are discharged from the leaves and
are carried by air currents to new
growth ON the apple trees.
Dr. X. j. Kadow Of the Univer-
sity OF Delaware's department Of
Plant Pathology has been working
this spring on a new way TO cut
down losses from apple scab in Del
aware orchards. DR.. KadOw and his
assistants are working on the idea
that II the spores can be killed while
they are still in the leaves on the
ground. thsfe Is much less of a
chance for the disease to get started
on the new leaves. They are carry
ing on experiments this spring which
include spraying the leaves on the
ground with new product known as
Elgetoi. This spray material has the
power of killing all of the apple
scab spores with which it comes in
contact. Ii is sprayed on the leaves

For proper selection OF a type OF

current motors are used much more
than direct current motors SO any

Alternating current split phase
motors are lower In first cost than
any other type Of single-phase mo-

requiring nominal breakdown and

used on appliances such as oil burn

Capacitor motors are medium in
first cost and are used where a
greater starting power is required.
These motors are used on cream
