- M Hollywood
By PAUL HARRISON NEA Service Staff COrresDOndent


 Hollywood - Eugene Palette, the most rotund of character actors, eased his 282 pounds into a canvass chair and sighed happily-but not from relief at being able to relax. What pleased him was that the next scene to be filmed would be his last in the picture, and then he'd be on the way to his big ranch up in Oregan where he could ride horseback and get in some fishing.
 Sitting there in formal evening clothes, with jowls almost hiding his collar, Palette looked as seden- tary as a granite Budda. Actually, he's proud of being more active than the average actor, and of eating less Che believes) than the average ac- tresS. He ascribeS his being fat to two reasonS-nature designed him to become that way after strenuous athletic career, and what food he eats is the richest and finest. He does his own cooking.
 Cooking" says Palette, "is the only essential art"
 He has a great stock of fine uten- sils, French blades and vacuum sealed spices and herbs He can cook in any language without looking at recipe. But he's equally proud of the miracles he can perform with few essentials such as flour and beans and a hunk of venison. T started to learn cooking the hard way" he recalled. More than 35 years ago I cooked on a COW ranch; and another time I cooked in a sheep wagon at 40 below zero for 16 men"
 DETESTS DIET TENDS
 Much as he hates gluttons, Pal lette dislikes even more those proud ly emaciated individuals who ask him why he doesn't diet and reduce. To his stoutness he owes at least part of the credit for one of the busiest and postpaid acting careers in pictures.
 As 8 youngster, Palette was a circus tumbler, semi-pro baseball pitcher, rider of race and bucking horses, and ranch hand. He became a juvenile and leading man in the atrical stock companies, and after entering movies in 1910 with the old Nestor company he alternated be- tween romantic leads in westerns and heavy roles in underworld melo- dramas. When the war came, he went into the Air Corps weighing 138 GmagineD and had added only four pounds when he was mustered out.
 Right away, though, he began gaining bulk, and for couple of years he fought it with trick diets, | starvation, patent nostrums, massag- eS, exercise, steam baths, WillpoWer and desperation. BIRTH OF A COMIC
 Nothing I tried did much good" said Palette. By this time, too, pie lures were demanding tall leading men, and was too short.
 T had done some comedy on the stage, but never in pictures. Now I said to hell with my weight and started getting fat, and pretty soon was a comedian"
 Palette is curre4lCly portraying Broadway character and gourmand named Nicely Nicely Johnson in "The Big Street." His greatest typ ing threat recently was a succession of millionaire fathers of beautiful gals, and before that it was dumb detectives.

Care of Motors Now
More Essential

Although it will be difficult to
replace many types of electrical
equipment for the duration, strict
observance of easy-to-follow rules
will prolong the life of electric
motors necessary for pumping and
other farm work, points out r. H
Skill, Pacific Power and Light Co.
district manager. 49,.
Heat caused by excessive or con-
tinuous overlooking or by dirt in
the motor windings may cause DAM
age to both windings and bearings
Proper shielding of the motor to
keep it clean and dry will make it
last longer and give better service
Motor windings should be cleaned
with a vacuum cleaner or air hose
Bearings should be checked fol
wear at regular intervals. So -. r
The motors oil supply should be
inspected regularly and kept al
the proper level, but lubricants
should be used ssparingly, for over
oiling will damage insulation.
Bearings should be oiled only
when the motor is stopped anc
spilled oil should be wiped clean.
If the brushes spark, the com.
mutator may be worn or dirty. u
can be cleaned and polished by
gently pressing 20 sandpaper, at:
tached to stick. against the com.
mutator while the motor is running
Emery cloth should not be used.
If the commutator is worn II
ridges or out of round, have the
armature removed and turned dowr

Grazing Increased
With Crested :.
|Wheatgrass y.

. In the Nov. 26 issue of this paper
we ran AN article urging the seed
ing Of crested wheatgrass on de-
pleted range lands or abandoned
cropland areas. Anyone interested
in getting the most out of rundown
range or idle cropland should act
at once, as little time now remains
for planting this year.
Some extremely interesting fig
ures on the grazing capacity Of
crested wheat as compared with
native range have recently come to
our attention. For example, it was
found in Montana that crested
wheatgrass pasture would carry al
most three times the number O;
cattle as the average native grass
range. Neither the native range nor
the crested wheatgrass were grazed
to capacity but enough grass was
left in. each case to allow both the
forage and the livestock to develop
maximum production. ~.
A second experiment reported
from the North Dakota Agricultural
Experiment Station reports rather
similar results. In this case the
grazing capacity of crested wheat
was found to be almost double thai
of good native range.
In another test made by the F'orest
Service in Montana, yearling cattle
were found to gain approximately
2.6 times more per acre on creste
wlleatgrass than on native grass
The crested wheat pasture also car.
ried almost three times the number
of stock as the native range. ~
Although crested wheatgrass vii
grow on most locations in Benton
County, it does better on some thar
on others. Furthermore, like an.
grain it requires care in planting
and cannot be carelessly soWn if one
expects to get a good stand. There
is also little or no advantage II
reseeding to crested wheat or an.
grass unless livestock can be ex
cluded from the seeded area for. a
least the first year after planting

Soil Conservation Column

On Wednesday. Dec. 16, the SUPERB
yisors of the East Benton Soil Con-
servation District met at the district
office in Kennewick to complete
final details of organization. At
the meeting Harry Hampton was
appointed chairman, and G. F..
Fletcher was appointed secretary
treasurer.
The supervisors will write dis
trict program in the immediate fu-
ture. stating the agricultural or
other land-use problems within the
county, and outline in general what
should be done to correct these prob
lens. In order to determine the
problems of local areas it is planned
TO hold a series of farmer meetings
throughout the district. At these
meetings the farmers will discuss
their land-use problems, and from
the sum total of Information gath
cred in this way the program of the
district will be developed. It was
felt that this method would permit
the problems and their solution to
originate directly from the farmer
members of the district The actiV-
ity and accomplishments of the
district are thus determined by
= local farmer leadership, and to q
large degree the success of the dis
trict will depend upon the program
that Will be developed in this way
under the guidance of the district
supervisors. The Soil Conservation
Service, and other state and federal
agencies will assist upon request Of
the supervisors.
A series of similar meetings have
been held in the North Benton
District, and MIR. Schnellhardt, dis
trict planner, has spent several days
in the Kennewick district office
compiling information derived from
the meetings held in the White
Bluffs, Hanford, Ringold, and Ver-
nita areas. %-&,1.=5 80. -

The best time for seeding in Ben
ton County is in the late fall and
it is still not too late, if the weather
gives us any kind of a break, to
seed areas this month. = It is desir-
able to plant mixture of two grass
es, including short-growing grass
to fill in the spaces between the
larger crested wheat plants. Mix
lures of. this sort require a total OF
about 10 pounds of seed to the acre,
and at current prices this seed can
be purchased at a cost of about $1.5O
for each acre planted.
The East Benton Soil Conserva-
ton District office at Kennewick
or the North Benton Soil Conserva-
ton District office at White Bluffs
will be glad to give any information
requested in regard to seedlings.
It should be mentioned again
however, that the time remaining
this winter in which seeding can
be done is running short, and any.
one planning to take advantage OF
this winters exceptional moisture
should do so without delay.
The current need for meat prod
ucts to feed our soldiers overseas as
well as the people at home, make:
it the duty of everyone in a posi-
ton to do so to increase. the graz
ing capacity of his lands to the
utmost. Seeding this winter mean.
that you will have a full year:
jump on the man who waits unit
next fall to do it.
