Americans are just beginning to
discover what the Germans. Aus
trians and Japanese have long
since proved. that the propagation
OF tropical fish may be made self
sustaining and ever an income
/ producing hobby So says Jerome
S Kaufman, leader in WASH
ingtons National Aquarium Society.
In fact" said Nj Kaufman. who
is a veritable walking encyclopedia
on all fish suitable for aquarium
purposes. go per cent OF the aquar-
lum enthusiasts propagate them TO
the extent of selling or trading their
surplus stock to ether fanciers. Thus.
without additional outlay. they in
crease their original holdings or I'M
prove upon them. A neighbor of
mine netted S27 from 50-cent
purchase of euppieS
Mr.. KauffmanS statement was
corroberated by RAYMOND S. Betz.
for two years secretary of the Ma
tiOnal Aquarium Society. AS a boy
he started with a tiny aquarium.
Now he has 80 in the basement of
his home at 4222 Thirty seventh
street NV.
Mr. Betz told thus story of his eX-
perience as buyer for the aquarium
and tropical fish department Of a
nationally known chain store: A
burly Pole living IN the outskirts
of Washington took him up to the
attic of his home In erStwhile
mayonnaise jars. nailed by their tin
tops to the roof, the amateur fish
fancier had 5000 Siamese fighting
fish. coveted for theh vivid red and
blue coloring. They were worth
about 81 so each.
Swim in Outdoor Pool.
In the rear OF MI Kaufman
home at 2874 Perry street NE, is an
outdoor pool for tropical fish. Ten
by 80 feet its sides have been land
Scaped by Mrs. Kaufman with roses,
iris. hollyhocks. ivy ana rock plants.
II is one of the beauty spots OF the
neighborhood and picture of en-
chantment from cary spring until
late autumn
The water lilies and daphna plants
in the pool not only provide food for
the fish but are also a source OF
some small revenue a. there is a
sale for them among aquarium en-
thuSiasts.
To our query. Does your pool
draw mosquitoes" the reply was:
Tropical fish control mosquitoes.
The chief problem is keeping down
other parasites and the frogs. which
quickly learn where there is good
eating"
To give the best results in fish
propagation. pool must be drained
and cleaned at regular intervals"
MI Kaufman said
MI Kaufman. like Nh Betz. spe-

Readers Tell Value
Of Parsley Juice
Fnl"e Of parsley juice.

Several weeks ago | stated in
answer to q question that I knew of
no special value OF parsley juice and
invited the opinions of my readers
on the subject. | have had a number
OF replies. Several Of them mention
The use of parsley in urinary
troubles and in retention of the
bladder; also its use as a kidney
&timulant and in cases where there
has been suppression Of urine.
One reader calls my attention to
to" fact that it is a source Of vita
,a:ns A, r, c, and contains iron,
copper and manganese.
"Consi,lcring the fact" writes
my correspondent. that one cats an
iniinitcsimal portion Of parsley, one
scarcely derives any benefit from it,
but believe that by drinking the
juice one may obtain the valuable
mineral and vitamin content. /
grind the parsley and extract the
juice which | serve as Il cocktail. If
rived between meals, | mix it with
grapefruit juice. If served at din
ucr, mix it with tomato juice"

SPECIAL EDITIONS, AND ONE
 IN PARTICULAR

Special editions of newspapers from all parts of the country have been hitting the desk of the Empire editor in the past few days. Several weeks ago it was the Arizona Republics Romantic Progressive Arizona Edition" from Phoenix Last week we received the Honolulu ar-Bulletins edi- tion conmemmorating the 40th anniversary of the Territory recent arrival the Longview Washington Daily News Evergreen Empire Edi- tion" Today we received the annual progress edi- ton of the Spokane Spokesman-Review
 All of which reminds that publication of the annual progress and development edition of The Empire is no far off Through this edition The Empire advertises Alaska and celebrates it's wonders so that the whole world will see
 Most special editions celebrate a more or less glorious past Not the Spokesman-Revew's which is dedicated to the future of the Columbia Basin future which is to be enriched by the Grand Coulee Dam. By the middle of 1941 this great dam will be completed and by 1943 or 1944 the first water will be ready for irrigation in the Columbia Basin.
 Including it's dry land reclamation feature, the Grand Coulee Dam is the greatest piece of con- struction undertaken by man, succeeding the ancient pyramids in this respect When completed to it's full height of $50 feet, the dam will make a lake 151 miles long, backing the water as far as the Canadian border The water surface above the dam will be raised about 355 feet above low water
 
 higher into great reservoir extending 27 miles in the Grand Coulee. From here it will run by gravity over a million and a quarter rich acres, which have been waiting a thousand years for this development to make them bloom This vast area in the center of the State of Washington has soil productive as that of the famous Yakima and Wenatchee apple districts. It will furnish homes for thousands
 And this great development, of the crack pot New Deal squandering schemes you have heard so much about in recent years, will make money for the Nation too. Assuming that the Columbia Basin land will prove as productive similar soil already under the ditch in the State of Washington, it will produce every two years crops equal in value to the whole cost of the gigantic enterprise. The people of the Basin will spend every year $75O00000 for goods from other parts of the Nation including Alaska This estimate is based the $25000y000 which has been spent annually by the settlers of the Yakima irrigated district by, which is only one-third large. This is truly building civilization in America.

Perilous Guessing
Cleveland Plain Dealer)

Cleveland Plain Dealer) The national committees seem to be joekeylng for position in their nominating conventions. As a result the two party tickets are likely to be named in July early August instead of June or early July as has been the practice generally in other presidential years.
 Republicans have usually been content to meet first name their candidates and stand them on a platform. This gave the Democrats something to shoot at when their delegates sat down to business.
 This year the situation is changed in two re- spects. MT Roosevelt suggests later date for his own party conventions. And he chooses not to en-
 tighten the opposition-or anyone else-as to whether he proposes to wrestle bout with the anti-third term precedent. If the Republicans, meeting in mid June to volley against the third term and month later the President to step aside for some other Democratic nominee, what bother that would be, countrymen!
 There is some merit in the suggestion of later conventions and resultant shorter campaigns. the idea finds adoption this year it will be result not of particular merit however but of President reluctance to say whether he will or he won't chal- lenge the ancient Washington Jefferson precedent Politics meets its master sphinx.

 No Cigar for Senator Taft
(Philadelphia Recordl

President Roosevelt several months ago promised a handsome prize" to Senator Taft, of Ohio If the latter would propose plan under which the national budget could be balanced in two years.
 Senator Taft partially accepted the challenge. listing a number of agencies which he said could be eliminated President Roosevelt has now ana lyzed these proposals and says that they would save only S8 100000 in budget of nearly SS.5OoOooOeo. Whats more, many of the agencies listed by Taft for the ax can be shown to return a real peolc service returning to the people more than their cost
 While President Roosevelts answer is effective. we're sorry that it soon. We had hoped that more of the economy Senators would follow Taft's example
 In fact we'd like to see every Senator draw up his own national budget before he criticizes the budget proposed by the Administration. That way the voters would get real basis for comparison They would also have clearer understanding of how much bunk is contained in the clamor against Fed era credit expansion.
 As long as it is generalized, it sounds all right But the minute a brave soul-such Senator Taft gets into specific facts and figures, the possible economies shrink else cuts are being made in items that essential. Tn spite of Senator Tafts bad luck we wish the President would keep that offer of handsome prize" standing
